The system automatically generates a unique task number and QR code. Field personnel can scan this code with their body-worn camera to automatically associate all subsequent recordings from that device with the task. During acquisition, data is automatically filed into the corresponding task folder.
  • Data Statistics and Performance Evaluation:
 The system can perform multi-angle statistics on stored data based on dimensions such as personnel, unit, time, file type, and marking status, automatically generating graphical reports. Supports setting evaluation thresholds (e.g., average daily recording time per person, priority marking rate) for quantitative analysis and evaluation of individual or unit workload and work quality, providing data support for management decisions.

4.5. Assured Data Integrity and System Safeguards

  • Controlled Acquisition Process:
 During acquisition, administrators can cancel data import from any port at any time, with source data on both the body-worn camera and the workstation remaining intact.
  • Resumable Transfer Guarantee:
 This is a key technology ensuring reliability. If an unexpected power outage, restart, system freeze occurs at the workstation, or if a body-worn camera connection is interrupted during acquisition, the system records the breakpoint. Upon recovery, it automatically resumes acquisition from the interruption point without starting over, ensuring 100% data completeness.
  • Abnormal Status Alarm:
 When the workstation detects anomalies such as network interruption or imminent storage overflow, it triggers both audible and visual alarms locally within 3 seconds (sound intensity 65-90dB,可持续 over 5 minutes). The alarm state is clear and intuitive, ensuring administrators can address issues promptly.
  • Convenient Software Upgrade:
 Supports local upgrades via the management software and secure remote upgrades from an authorized management platform, enabling continuous functional optimization and issue resolution.
