BPD has also deployed PocketCop(R) software, BIO-key's complementary mobile data solution for smartphones and handheld devices, for use by foot patrol and other officers outside of a vehicle. PocketCop and MobileCop users can communicate with each other, and all users are notified when any officer gets a high-priority hit, such as an outstanding arrest warrant, in order to provide back-up, if necessary.
Ken Souza, Senior Vice President and General Manager of BIO-key's Law Enforcement Division, noted that, "Baltimore is one of our many large, urban law enforcement customers that rely on MobileCop and PocketCop as a mobile office for their officers in the field. BIO-key solutions become a force multiplier by making their officers more effective and productive, while they remain a visible deterrent to crime. We expect to deliver this contract in the current quarter."
