SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Feb. 2, 2016 /PRNewswire/ — Axon, a business unit of TASER International (NASDAQ: TASR) and the global leader in digital evidence management solutions with the leading body-worn camera today announced an exclusive partnership withItaly-based Amped Software, one of the premier providers of forensic video enhancement tools. This new partnership will further enable law enforcement to use a variety of tools to analyze evidence through the Axon Forensic Suite. Available for immediate purchase and offered in the U.S. and Canada, Axon is now the exclusive reseller of three Amped Software products that have re-branded as Axon Convert, Axon Five and Axon Detect. Amped Software currently has products in more than 100 federal, state, and local agencies in the U.S. and Canada and in law enforcement labs in more than 50 countries worldwide.
“Teaming up with TASER seemed like a natural evolution of what we’ve been working towards since our founding in 2008,” says CEO of Amped Software, Martino Jerian. “Our goal has always been to fill a technological need of law enforcement, which is something TASER knows all about. Our tools combined with their Evidence.com solution will help increase overall efficiency and better equip agencies to analyze their video evidence.”
“Forensic video enhancement has never been more relevant than it is right now,” said TASER CEO and co-founder Rick Smith. “Among other things, Amped Software’s products can help alleviate a major customer pain point when it comes to playing back proprietary or non-standard video formats. Low-quality CCTV footage that our customers are accustomed to seeing in places like convenience stores and gas stations will no longer have to be a stumbling block in investigations.”
Axon Convert: Video Format Converter
Axon Convert (formerly Amped DVRConv) is a video format converter. A single tool that allows you to easily convert unplayable video file formats (e.g., proprietary CCTV) into playable file formats that can later be exported to Evidence.com.
