“A radio is a first responder’s lifeline when 100% of their
attention needs to be on the people and events around them,” said
Collin Arnold, Director of the New Orleans Office of Homeland
Security. “Motorola Solutions worked closely with our public safety
team, who is nationally recognized for their technology leadership,
to build a radio that goes far beyond what we thought possible. APX
NEXT and ViQi allow our first responders to keep their eyes on
what’s happening, while obtaining the critical information they
need to help protect our community.”
APX NEXT is the newest mission-critical P25 radio offering in
Motorola Solutions’ purpose-built APX portfolio. It’s FirstNet
Ready™ and comes with embedded LTE connectivity enabled by the
FirstNet communications platform to quickly deliver voice and data
to first responders in the field. APX NEXT is Motorola Solutions’
first APX radio to feature a touchscreen with a user interface
designed specifically for public safety. The touchscreen can be
used in the rain and when wearing gloves. It offers one-touch
access to radio controls, large touch targets and an optimized user
interface for fast navigation. ViQi voice control enables users to
quickly manage radio controls through simple and intuitive voice
commands.
“APX NEXT was created after more than 2,000 hours of extensive
field research and testing with numerous law enforcement agencies,”
said Scott Mottonen, Motorola Solutions senior vice president of
Products. “We know that first responders need technology to be
intuitive and intelligent to allow them to remain eyes up, hands
free and focused in any situation.”
APX NEXT APPLICATION SERVICES
This new radio uses LMR for mission-critical voice
communications and LTE broadband to power new application services
including:
- ViQi: With ViQi Virtual Partner, first responders can
retrieve information from remote databases using natural language
interactions, such as “ViQi, run a license plate.”
- SmartConnect: APX NEXT detects when an LMR signal is low
and automatically switches to LTE broadband connectivity ensuring
continuity of PTT voice communications. It then switches back to
LMR when the signal returns with no user intervention
required.
- SmartLocate: An officer’s location data is automatically
sent over broadband to a dispatcher’s mapping console, providing
dispatchers with up-to-date location information as fast as every 3
seconds. Leveraging broadband to send frequent location updates
frees up your valuable LMR system resources.
- SmartProgramming: The radio’s software and configuration
data can be rapidly updated over broadband, even when a police
officer is using it. This means APX NEXT spends less time in radio
shops and more time in the field.
MORE ABOUT ViQi
ViQi is an application service available on APX NEXT. It will be
integrated into other solutions as the company continues to
research, and collaborate with users, on new ways to streamline
officer workflows and guide better decisions through artificial
intelligence and machine learning.
Today, ViQi allows officers to quickly and discreetly retrieve
critical information from remote databases through simple voice
queries, including:
- License plate numbers
- Driver’s license information
- Vehicle identification numbers (VIN)
Motorola Solutions is working on future iterations of ViQi, such
as calling for vehicle assistance, taking statements and foreign
language speech translation.
Product demonstrations of APX NEXT and ViQi will be given at the
International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) conference,
booth #3811, from October 27-29 at McCormick Place West in Chicago.
They will become part of the Motorola Solutions mission-critical
ecosystem of unified voice, data, video and analytics.
A media kit on APX NEXT & ViQi is available here.
