The LA Port Police have signed a deal with Reality Mobile to try out RealityVision, an enterprise-class, real-time mobile collaboration program.
That sounds innocuous, but the real story is in the instant video and data sharing capabilities: any user on the network can view live video from any source, as well as feed video and other critical data the other way, from smartphones or other video sources to a central command console.
The goal is to extend the Port’s police surveillance and response capacity. Reality Mobile said in a statement that the platform will integrate securely with the Port’s existing security infrastructure, and will receive feeds from over 350 fixed cameras.
The LA Port is the busiest container port in the U.S., and the 8th busiest in the world, according to Reality Mobile.
