Cyber Group Launches JailCellWatch™ an IP-based, In-Cell Video and Sound Surveillance System for Monitoring Jail Cells

Concealed in Light Fixtures with Image and Audio Signals Transmitted through Existing Power Lines to a Monitor and Central Video Server

Dallas, TX – Cyber Group, Inc. (www.CyberGroupUSA.com), a global provider of engineering solutions for software, electronic products and systems for public safety, energy, business and government applications, announced today that it has launched Version 1.0 of JailCellWatch™ a comprehensive software-based IP video/sound surveillance system for monitoring prisoners inside their jail cells. It transmits image and audio signals through existing power lines to a monitor and central video server.

“JailCellWatch™ is securely embedded inside the ceiling light of the jail cell. No exposed camera, wiring or mounting is required,” said Tom Hulsey, of Cyber Group. “Our patent-pending system is virtually undetectable, indestructible and provides a full color, high-resolution view of the jail cell and prisoners.”

This system provides a 24/7 view and record of in-cell prisoner activity, allowing jail staff to perform virtual “rounds” more often. JailCellWatch™ may also become a key deterrent against unlawful prisoner behavior, possession of contraband and escape attempts.

If a prisoner violates rules, commits offenses, or confesses to crimes while in their cell, a JailCellWatch™ video and sound recording may be a powerful tool for supporting punishment and prosecution. In addition, it helps protect jail staff from frivolous complaints by prisoners.

The JailCellWatch™ video and sound surveillance application provides increased safety for police officers and jail staff while inside a cell with a prisoner during processing or moving, because images and sound can be monitored remotely. It can also protect prisoners from abuse and neglect.

“A major liability concern for jail staff is an in-custody death or serious injury to a prisoner,” Hulsey said. “Resulting criminal and civil actions against an agency in these types of cases can end careers and cost millions in court settlements. JailCellWatch™ in-cell video and sound recording of actual events can be a major help in clearing the innocent and convicting the guilty.”
