Castle Shannon Police Department Using New Body Camera Technology That Analyzes Footage

CASTLE SHANNON, Pa. — The Castle Shannon Police Department is the first in Pennsylvania to utilize a new body camera technology that analyzes footage.

“It’s all in the interest of transparency and accountability,” said Chief Kenneth Truver.

The software, called “Truleo,” accesses police footage from a secured cloud, then uses artificial intelligence to transcribe police interactions and categorize the conduct.
