We’re building Axon Outpost, a new frontier in public safety technology. This first-generation, first-party fixed ALPR (Automatic License Plate Recognition) device takes the proven intelligence of Axon’s body-worn and in-car systems and expands it into the off-grid domain. Solar-powered, AI-enabled, and always connected, Outpost is designed to operate autonomously in the harshest environments—transforming how law enforcement agencies and communities gather intelligence and act on threats in real time.

Outpost is more than a camera—it’s a smart node in a safety network, providing situational awareness that empowers public safety professionals to protect life, solve crime, and further justice. Whether it’s tracking stolen vehicles, identifying suspects in violent crime, or strengthening community protection efforts through HOAs and enterprises, Outpost works in tandem with Axon’s suite of tools and the Fusus real-time crime center platform to deliver actionable intelligence when and where it matters most.
