Viridian Set to Showcase FACT Duty+ at IACP

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. – October 12, 2022 – Viridian Weapon Technologies is slated to attend the International Association of Chiefs of Police Annual Conference and Exposition in Dallas, Texas October 15-18, 2022. As the most impactful law enforcement event of the year, the IACP allows Viridian to showcase its FACT Duty+ Gun Camera, the most advanced Gun Camera available to law enforcement and the ultimate police transparency tool. Viridian will be at booth #6424.

Since 1893, the IACP has served as world’s largest professional police leader association and is dedicated to shaping the future of law enforcement through cutting-edge technology, education and research. The non-profit hosts the Annual Conference and Exposition in hopes to further their commitment to enhancing community safety through presentation of products, training opportunities and networking. Viridian is honored to exhibit the FACT Duty+, the only product designed to show what really happened in an officer-involved shooting, alongside hundreds of vendors.  

“The FACT Duty+ is the culmination of our work with so many police departments, both large and small,” said Viridian President and CEO, Brian Hedeen. “We are thrilled to showcase the new product and its features at IACP. The FACT Duty+ is essential for every gun-carrying officer as it provides what really happened without requiring extra training or changes to tactics.”

The highly advanced FACT Duty+ weapon mounted camera employs a 1080p full-HD digital camera with a microphone and 500 lumen tactical light. The new FACT Duty+ also has the option for Viridian’s famed Green Laser technology to improve visibility and aim. Viridian’s proprietary INSTANT-ON® technology automatically activates the camera and microphone whenever the officer draws the firearm from its holster.

Not only does this eliminate risk of failure to manually turn on the camera during a critical event, but it also keeps the officer from fumbling with cumbersome equipment. The biggest improvement to the new model is the new Dattery™ data storage system that detaches from the firearm’s recording device for immediate charging and completely secure data transfer to multiple third-party data management platforms. This has been created especially for larger departments that voiced the need for more robust storage capabilities. The Dattery can also charge automatically while downloading.
