Visit <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.hi-tapo.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">www.HI-TAPO.com<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>HI-TAPO instantly documents user interactions with law enforcement via streaming video, social sharing, and text and e-mail notifications to a pre-programmed network of up to 10 family members, friends, loved ones and civic and community organizations. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Additionally, HI-TAPO can provide a mechanism for collaborative, fair and equitable oversight of local police, state troopers, sheriffs, ICE agents, and others. It can be used as a new tool in community policing. With HI-TAPO, communities can actually map police stops,&#8221; said HI-TAPO CEO and app developer <span class=\"xn-person\">Martin Whitehead<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>The HI-TAPO app is available for free download to Android mobile phones through Google Play.\u00a0HI-TAPO is user-friendly with an easy swipe-and-click activation, and starting in November, audio activation.<\/p>\n<p>Once the HI-TAPO app is activated, live streaming of audio and video immediately begin to record the user&#8217;s interaction and GPS tracking pinpoints the location. Alerts are sent to those in the user&#8217;s network allowing them to listen to and view the interaction in real time. If necessary, the audio\/video can be used in a court of law. <\/p>\n<p>After activating HI-TAPO, the user can hit an &#8220;all-clear&#8221; button once the interaction has concluded. However, if there is no all\u2013clear signal given after a pre-determined amount of time, an SOS alert will automatically be sent to his\/her network.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, following the stop, HI-TAPO allows users to write a review of the interaction, including the officer&#8217;s name, badge number, the reason for the stop, use of force, if any, and a rating of the overall experience with a thumb&#8217;s up or down.<\/p>\n<p>The HI-TAPO system will aggregate ratings and comments about interactions with law enforcement providing greater transparency, information sharing, an opportunity for community-building, as well as a vehicle for highlighting well-trained officers who engage the community in a fair and equitable way.
