Introduction
The Axon Body 3 is a camera system incorporating an audio and video recording device for
use in tough environmental conditions encountered in law enforcement, corrections, military,
and security activities. The Axon Body 3 camera records events for secure storage, retrieval,
and analysis to Axon Evidence or Evidence Local services. The recorded events are
transferred to your storage solution using the Axon Body 3 Dock. Additionally, the Axon View
application enables playback of footage on a smart device for review prior to storing the data.
The Axon Body 3 camera has two operating modes: Ready and Recording. Ready, or
Buffering, provides pre-event buffering to capture activities that occur prior to the user
activating the Recording, or Event, mode.
Note The Axon Body 3 camera does not support offline mode and is not compatible with
Evidence Sync.
