At a recent conference for the corrections industry, Smart Communications unveiled a groundbreaking smartwatch designed for inmates, enabling them to make calls and send messages while providing correctional staff with tools to monitor health and location. CEO Jon Logan highlighted the watch's role in enhancing control within prisons. The event showcased various innovative technologies aimed at improving prison security and operations, including drone detection systems and contraband management solutions, alongside educational workshops on hiring and criminal psychology for correctional professionals.
The incarcerated person wearing the watch can use it for phone calls and text messages—each message costing them 50 cents. This technology offers next-level intelligence for corrections.
'It just gives [correctional officers] next-level kind of control and intelligence into what's going on inside the prisons,' Logan said, emphasizing the watch's significant implications.
The conference featured cutting-edge technologies, including a system to detect drones and a covert toilet that processes contraband, showcasing innovation in corrections.
