Upgraded field reporting software

Mobile BIS introduced a new function to its Mobile Unit Field Reporting System for law enforcement officers. The system now automates the filing of criminal charges, traffic citations and other violations, and it produces printed citations in real-time. The software is installed on a handheld device, smartphone or a mobile computer where data can be entered about a criminal action and wirelessly transmitted to a central server and records management system. Once the server verifies the data, the citation is printed at the scene via a wireless Bluetooth printer, according to the company.
