ROCKVILLE, MD - ICOP Digital, Inc., a provider of digital in-car video systems for law enforcement, announced that the Rockville City Police Department has ordered 40 ICOP Model 20/20 units for fleet-wide deployment, according to the Telematics Journal. The order, valued at approximately $220,000, will ship immediately. Recognized as the third largest city in Maryland and located 15 miles outside of Washington, D.C., Rockville has a local population of nearly 60,000 and daily commuters into the city of an additional 40,000. Currently, the Rockville City Police Department operates a police vehicle fleet comprised of a mix of auto makes — Ford Crown Victorias, Chevrolet Impalas, and Dodge Chargers. Rapid adoption of the ICOP Model 20/20 by law enforcement agencies nationwide is being driven by both competitive cost and efficiency benefits afforded by the system. Noted for its ease of installation and servicing, the entire unit fits in the vehicle dashboard, replacing the radio unit (an AM/FM tuner is built into the ICOP product). There are no parts in the trunk, under the seat, or overhead — a critical point for officer safety. The ICOP Model 20/20 records using full-VGA, providing maximum image quality and integrity of data (preventing unauthorized access and editing of video files). For further precision, pressing the "Mark" button records exact event location for easy retrieval (using built-in GPS). The ICOP Video Management System archives, searches, copies, and displays two video images simultaneously. In addition, digital video footage can be readily formatted for the courtroom; converted to AVI (Windows Media Player) and MPEG II formats; or transferred to DVD, CD, or VHS tape.
