L-Tron has returned from its seventh trip to the annual International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) Technology Conference. This year’s 2024 IACP Technology Conference was held in Charlotte, North Carolina from May 21-23. The event provided public safety officers with training, professional development and knowledge about new technologies in the law enforcement space.
While writing grant proposals might be intimidating, the process can be done successfully by following a few basic guidelines. L-Tron has worked with and for Law Enforcement agencies over the past two decades. We have helped agencies successfully find, apply for, and receive law enforcement grant funding to purchase our technology, including the 4910LR Driver’s License Reader and OSCR360 system.
In today’s digital world, uninterrupted communication is essential – and even more so within the public safety community. When it comes to first response, every situation has the potential to be critical. To this end, manufacturers have developed Wi-Fi routers and gateways specifically for emergency vehicle and squad car environments. These devices are small, rugged, and ready to be connected to essentially any communications network, leaving the lines of communication open all the time, even when public communication systems are failing.
Effective and reliable communication is essential to Law Enforcement & Public Safety Officers. Without it, first responders would be in danger of experiencing slower response times, making uninformed decisions, subjecting themselves to unnecessary risks, and even losing lives. Fortunately, in today’s day in age, we have better communication systems and more communication capabilities than ever before. However, this also means that there are a lot of tech options. How can you be sure you’re outfitting your department with the “right” technology?
As a department, your #1 priority is to keep the public safe, but you’re also responsible for keeping police officers healthy and safe during COVID-19. How can OSCR360 partner with your department and limit the risk of exposure, preserve PPE & make decontamination easy?

As a ‘tech guy,’ I’m often asked what my favorite piece of technology is. I never really gave this question much thought before, but I imagine my fellow public safety technologists are asked this same question pretty often as well. We all have our favorite technology. Many of us wear it on the wrist, others …
