[{"type":"text","content":"SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., May 1, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Axon (Nasdaq: AAXN), the global leader in connected public safety technologies, today announced that more than 1,800 public safety professionals attended the Axon Accelerate conference to hear from more than 70 speakers and experience all the products offered through the Axon network. Throughout the conference, Axon unveiled several new products and features - many of which are available on the Officer Safety Plan (OSP) 7+. The plan allows users to leverage the power of the Axon network by bundling next-generation devices like the TASER 7 and Axon Body 3 with the innovative records management system, Axon Records.

Redaction Assistant is a productivity tool built to increase efficiency for agencies who currently spend up to eight hours manually redacting each hour of body camera video footage.

The technology is similar to what is found in almost all cell phone cameras where objects of interest, such as faces, are detected to improve the lighting conditions of the captured image. Redaction Assistant is available now to agencies in the US, UK and Canada as a software add-on and is included automatically for US agencies on Axon's Officer Safety Plan (OSP) 7+.
