The world's first hands free/eye free 2-way communication system for use in investigation and situational procedures.

Police work is dangerous enough without the added risk of language-based miscommunication. When tension levels are running high or even when interrogating a suspect there is often no time to wait for the arrival of interpreters. The ECTACO Law Enforcement SpeechGuard PD-5 provides instant backup for you and your partners in situations where communication barriers prevent you from carrying out your duties, saving lives, and bringing a situation under control. Designed specifically for use by Law Enforcement personnel, the Law Enforcement SpeechGuard PD-5 provides officers with access to thousands of directives, phrases, and questions that can all be issued without looking at the device. Recorded by professional native-speakers, all phrases are designed to be 100% understandable in extreme noise environments. Simply speak up to 3 words into the device in English and have a phrase spoken back in the language of the person you need to communicate with. Current languages include Spanish, Arabic, Russian, Chinese (Mandarin), Polish, Vietnamese, Korean, Japanese, and Farsi (Persian) with the possibility to add more languages upon special request.
