Talitrix Prison-Monitoring System Tracks Inmates Down to Their Heart Rate | WIRED
Documents WIRED obtained detail new prison-monitoring technology that keeps tabs on inmates’ location, heartbeats, and more.
The system, which was created by Georgia-based firm Talitrix, can track an inmate’s heartbeat, determine their location every 30 seconds, and create 3D images showing who comes into contact with whom. Documents WIRED obtained through a public record request, including a legal agreement, statements of work, and internal PowerPoint presentations, describe how the monitoring system operates and provide a glimpse into its inner workings.
