Such devices are now on the market. Personally, I think that all uniformed officers and elected officials should be required to wear and use them - as they tell us, the good ones have nothing to hide (and can be quickly cleared of bogus charges through this tech) and the bad ones will get caught.

“... and the bad ones will get caught...”

Or lie low, which is still an improvement.

The “blue wall of silence” doesn’t work very well when a camera is present.

I've seen new cameras with built in flash drives built into chest mikes. Something like that could record a situation in its entirety from the officers POV. It is My opinion that this sort of thing will become as common an in-car cameras. They serve to reduce a departments liability while weeding out the small amount of jerks on police forces that seem to cause most of the trouble.
