Magnet Witness

Descripción

Optimize video acquisition and analysis.
Magnet Witness lets you acquire, review, and analyze video evidence, all with a single advanced product.

Video evidence is everywhere.

Audiovisual material can be an essential source of evidence in criminal investigations. It is estimated that more than 80% of criminal cases use video evidence. This evidence includes a growing amount of DVR surveillance recordings, body cameras and vehicle cameras, as well as doorbell camera videos, home security systems, or mobile phones. Recovering and analyzing evidence from these sources can present challenges without the proper tools.

Magnet Witness Features

Based on the Magnet DVR Examiner foundation, Magnet Witness recovers more video evidence than ever, including native and proprietary video formats, body camera and vehicle camera videos, as well as cloud sources such as Ring or Arlo. Review, analysis, and output generation are simpler thanks to new capabilities such as video analytics, synchronized review, subclip creation, and concatenation.
