The PODSS camera system has been one of the most effective crime-fighting tools in this country, but its true effectiveness has been a result of how it has been integrated into a complete video surveillance solution.

In Chicago, over the past 4 years, RMS has built out a high-bandwidth video wireless meshed network that covers over 200 square miles, quite possibly the largest build-out of its kind in the United States. While traditional video surveillance systems have required hard-wired connectivity, having wireless connectivity provides benefits such as:

• Effective Crime-Fighting Strategy—As crime moves PODSS cameras can quickly be moved to the new 'hot spots' without regard to what fixed infrastructure may be available. Simply attach the camera to a power source and connect to a wireless receiving station.
• Highly Cost-Effective Solution—Conventional surveillance cameras are costly to maintain due to their reliance on a fixed wire infrastructure. With PODSS, municipal crews can readily relocate units without incurring new infrastructure cost or expensive service charges for removal and relocation.
• Flexible Monitoring—With the use of a laptop computer, field officers can control multiple PODSS units, giving police the increased ability to see and respond quickly to crime situations.

RMS has drawn upon its 30 years of experience in systems and networking technologies to make this a reality!

The value of the PODSS solution over traditional surveillance systems can be summarized:

• Complete system, not just a camera
• Built-in video recording which can serve as storage or back up in the event the back-end video management system should fail
• A platform for additional features such as gunshot detection and other sensors

At RMS, we believe that the value in terms of lives saved and communities restored from drug activity and violent crime is incalculable. Let RMS become part of your overall crime fighting strategy today by providing the overt video surveillance PODSS that can have a remarkable impact on your city's wellbeing.
