The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department uses tasers to restrain violent individuals when alternative restraint tactics fail, or are reasonably likely to fail, and/or where it would be unsafe for officers to approach a subject to apply restraints. A taser uses an electrical current to temporarily disrupt voluntary control of muscles causing short-term neuromuscular incapacitation.

CMPD is looking to establish a contract for the provision of Police wearable body cameras and a storage solution that shall be able to capture videos from an officer perspective in accordance with the terms, conditions and specifications contained herein.
