SWAT app wants to help you keep a close eye on cops
After visiting Ferguson, Missouri recently, a pair of Georgetown students realized the need to access cellphone videos of police misconduct in the event a device is destroyed. With that in mind, Brandon Anderson and Joseph Gruenbaum set out to develop the SWAT app. The software that sends your footage to the cloud in the event the phone itself is confiscated or smashed. In addition to safely beaming videos to a sever for later use, the app also allows you to file complaints without having to visit a police station and will serve up rights info based on your GPS coordinates for easy reference. This allows you to quickly read up on all of the local, state and federal laws should the need arise. The project is in its infancy, but there's no questioning its utility once if becomes a full-on mobile app. For now, Anderson and Gruenbaum are looking for tech and legal partners to get the endeavor off the ground.
