VIDIZMO has begun offering facial recognition technology capable of processing data from Flock and Axon within the last six months. This capability allows users to search both data sources on a single platform. Garrett Langley, CEO of Flock, has stated, "We will not add facial recognition to our devices," emphasizing the company's commitment to avoiding such technology. In May, VIDIZMO reached out to Michael Adams, Deputy Police Chief of Johnson City, Tennessee, to inform him of this new feature. The introduction of VIDIZMO's facial recognition may impact law enforcement agencies looking to leverage existing surveillance data without relying on Flock's devices.
