"In-vehicle voice recognition technology deployments are proving to be worth every syllable.
The modernization of policing has brought about incredible opportunities to better serve communities. Technology has revolutionized police service delivery during the last century by utilizing many modern devices sometimes taken for granted, such as the automobile, radio technology, computer systems, E-911 answering, cellular telephones, etc. These advances have allowed officers to get to problems more quickly, with greatly enhanced communication and crime fighting tools at their disposal. The mission of the police officer to protect life and property has remained, but technology has significantly changed and improved the methods to accomplish this mission."
