Description

A guard on a night round of a car park or a builders' yard rarely gets a warning before things turn. The VIM-PC-01 keeps a rolling buffer while it is switched on, so each clip starts before the record key is pressed, and if the camera is knocked off in a scuffle, its impact sensor records the fall. A laser dot shows exactly where the lens is pointing, and red and blue strobes with a siren make the wearer easy to find in the dark.

It records 4K at 30fps to a microSD card of up to 512GB, which is not included, so add one to the order. The built-in 3,500mAh battery is rated for about 15 hours and charges upright in the single-bay dock in the box. The camera's own WiFi links to a free phone app for live view and downloads at the scene, with no SIM, data plan or platform fee, and it is rated IP68 and for a 2 metre drop.

Features

Pre-event recording: While the camera is on and waiting, it keeps a rolling buffer, so each clip begins before the record key is pressed. A camera started from off has no buffer.
Post-event recording, 5 seconds to 5 minutes: After stop is pressed, it keeps recording for the time you set, so an early press does not cut off how an incident ended.
Impact sensor: With collision recording switched on and the camera running, the G-sensor records the moment it is knocked off the vest or dropped. It does not alert anyone, because the camera has no mobile connection.
Laser aiming dot: A dot marks the centre of the frame, so the wearer can check the lens still points the right way after a mount shifts. Check it on a wall or the ground, never on a person.
Red and blue strobes with a siren: Each press of the star key switches between blue, red, and red and blue, and the siren sounds through the 1W speaker, so a guard is easy to spot in a dark car park or a crowd.
4K at 30fps: Up to 3840 x 2160 at 30 frames a second, saved as MP4 in H.264 or H.265, to step through frame by frame when you review an incident.
WiFi to a phone, no SIM: The camera runs its own WiFi hotspot, and the free iPhone and Android app connects to it for live view, playback and downloads at the scene, with no SIM card or data plan.
Charging dock in the box: The camera stands upright in a single-bay dock and charges through contacts, so it goes back on charge at the end of a shift without a cable.
Infrared night vision, automatic or manual: A light sensor turns infrared on as daylight fades, or hold the light key to switch it yourself. The lamps glow red while on, so the camera stays visible in the dark.
White LED torch: A short press of the light key lights a doorway, a number plate or an ID card at close range.
2 inch screen: Replay a clip on the camera to confirm it saved, or show a supervisor straight away without a phone or a laptop.
IP68 and a 2 metre drop rating: Sealed against dust and water with the port covers closed, and rated for a 2 metre fall, further than the drop from a chest mount to the ground.
Motion recording: Set the camera down facing a gate or a doorway and it records when the scene changes, then stops once it goes still. It records sound unless that is switched off.
Loop recording, 1 to 30 minute files: With loop on, the oldest files make way when the card fills. With loop off, recording stops at a full card and nothing is overwritten.
Silent mode: Switches off the indicator lights and key beeps for quiet areas, while the camera stays in plain view on the chest.
Password lock: With the password on, settings and playback need the numeric code, and files can only be deleted from a computer. The files themselves are not encrypted.
File marker: A key press during recording flags the file, so the clip is quick to find when the incident report is written.
One press records from off: The record key powers the camera up and starts recording in one press, so there is no separate power key to find first.
Sound with video, or sound only: The microphone records with video, a separate key records sound on its own, and voice prompts confirm each action unless you switch them off.
microSD card up to 512GB: Cards up to 512GB fit the side slot. The camera ships without a card, so add one to the order.
3,500mAh built-in battery: Rated for about 15 hours of recording per charge and 4 hours to refill on the dock. It is built in, so it charges between shifts rather than being swapped.
Magnetic chest mount: A four-magnet plate behind the fabric holds the camera mid-chest on a polo or a work shirt, with no vest needed. A back clip and a long clip are also supplied for a vest, a harness or a belt.
Car mode: The camera starts recording when the car starts and shuts down after the engine is switched off. A car charger and a dash mount are not included, and keep the strobes off in a vehicle.

Applications

Real-World Scenarios

Night rounds of car parks and industrial yards

Lighting on a night round is patchy and most of it is walked alone. Infrared comes on by itself as the light fades, the white torch checks a doorway, and the strobes and siren make the guard easy to find when backup is on the way. Keep radio check-ins as they are, because the camera sends nothing to a control room.

Hospital security officers

Aggression at an emergency department desk or in a waiting room can build in seconds, and pre-event recording starts the clip before the record key is pressed. A code locks playback on the camera, but the card is not encrypted, so collect it each shift and store the footage under your records policy. Recording near patients raises privacy questions, so follow the hospital's policy on when the camera runs.

Crowd control at concerts and sports grounds

In a pushing crowd, a chest camera can be knocked off without the wearer noticing. Collision recording catches the knock or the fall, one press starts recording even from off, and the IP68 rating covers a wet night at an outdoor ground.

How it Works

Charge and set up: Charge the camera on its dock for 4 hours and fit a microSD card. Set pre-record, post-record, loop recording, collision recording and the password in the menu before the first shift.
Record on patrol: Press record once, even with the camera off. Hold the light key for night vision or tap it for the torch, press the star key for the strobes and siren, and OK for the laser.
Review and offload: Check clips on the 2 inch screen after the shift, copy them to a computer over the USB-C cable, then stand the camera back in its dock.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it need a SIM card or a monitoring platform?

No. It records to its microSD card and connects to a phone through its own WiFi hotspot, so there is no SIM, data plan or platform fee. The trade-off is reach: a control room cannot watch it live, and live view works only while a phone is connected nearby.

How long does the battery last?

The 3,500mAh battery is rated for about 15 hours of continuous recording and refills in 4 hours on the dock. It is built in, so it charges between shifts rather than being swapped. Infrared and the phone link draw extra power, so test a full shift on your own settings.

Does it come with a memory card?

No. The side slot takes a microSD card up to 512GB and none is in the box, so add a 128GB or 256GB card to the same order. Without a card the camera cannot record.

Can staff delete or change the footage?

Not from the camera's menu. With the password on, settings and playback need the numeric code, and files can only be deleted from a computer. The files are not encrypted, though, so anyone who removes the card can copy or delete them: collect cards each shift and keep copies securely.

What happens if the camera is knocked off?

With collision recording on, the G-sensor picks up the knock or the fall and the camera records it. The body is rated IP68 against dust and water and for a 2 metre drop, which is further than the fall from chest height. Keep the port covers shut for the water rating.

Does a body camera record all the time?

No. This one records from the moment you press record until you stop it, in files of 1 to 30 minutes. Pre-record adds the moments before the press, loop recording overwrites the oldest files on a full card, and motion recording starts on movement when the camera is set down.

What do I need to know about wearing one on duty in Australia?

Worn openly, a body camera can film in public places and on premises you control in every state and territory. Surveillance devices laws differ by state and territory, so wear the camera openly, say that it records, and never record a private conversation you are not part of or film where people expect privacy. Licensing for security work differs between states and territories, and the camera gives no authority of any kind. This is general information, not legal advice.
