- In November and December 2021, rail theft in LA led the Los Angeles Police Department's Commercial Crimes Division Train Burglary Task Force (TBTF) to conduct surveillance of known cargo theft suspects.
- Following a meeting with the TBTF, ECAMSECURE designed a surveillance solution of free-standing Mobile Surveillance Unit (MSU) MINIs and monitoring software, the Virtual Guard Platform, to be undetected by suspects and capable of close, flexible observation.
- The MSU MINI cameras were equipped with night vision and pan-and-zoom capabilities, increasing the ability to detect criminal behavior around the clock.
- Through ECAMSECURE surveillance, the TBTF was able to identify suspects and revealed them loading stolen property into a vehicle.
