Yeah, this was posted several years ago. I believe it was determined that it's used as a crime deterrent.

They use those in some parts of Phila., PA. They also use just the small beacon too.

The newest Big Brother cameras in Chicago have a smaller, less obtrusive LED system on top. They also are a much smaller enclosure. Some of the new ones have \"gun shot detectors\" that automatically slew the camera in the direction of the sound of any gunfire.

I see them a lot in N. Philly (hmm...wonder why, there's never any crime there ), especially right near Temple Hospital. I've always wondered why they spend the money for a mini-Liberty too..... Back to top    URL mcpd2025

They have them all over Baltimore City (Body-more Murderland). Its kinda funny because they have better equipment mounted on those cameras then they do on their cop cars!
