The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (LASD) vehicles are now equipped with mobile data computer systems (MDCS) from Raytheon Co. LASD patrol cars, motorcycles, prisoner transport units, command vehicles and SUVs have been outfitted with the Raytheon-integrated computer systems. The $19.9 million technology upgrade replaces the 1987-era mobile digital technology previously used by the sheriff’s department.
