It would be like a normal Overwatch console that allows the MilWard or Chief of MilPol to observe the camera from the MilPol personnel, this could make running Dispatch as MilWard more engaging as you can rely on something else that isn’t radio call-outs.

Why? There’s no need for it. MPs are good as they are.
And a crucial detail you forget: 80% of the MPs will never be seen on this overwatch console, because they don’t wear helmets. Even Chief MP doesn’t. They all spawn with Berets and change it for a cap. Literally not a single MP but some Adrian Shepard cosplayers and rare outliers wear helmets.
“Maybe” it can be used to check on how the Honour Guard is doing, but I still find little to no use cases for that.
Lastly, let’s remember that we don’t always have a CMP/Werden present, or MPs at all. 70% of the rounds there’s etiher a sole CMP/MP the whole time or none at all. And even if we have a CMP/Warden present, he can just refuse to sit in the office and go wonder the ship or he needs to look after a prisoner and dosn’t have time for it.

I will never not keep my beret, thank you very much.
As long as there’s no prisoners in non Perma cells, there’s nothing keeping the Warden in brig. You can go back up your MPs.
Also yeah forcing MPs to either use camera gear or helmet all the time for this would be a little annoying.
Also also, you have a Crew Monitor Console and Camera console in the brig to track your MPs around with. Sure the camera’s aren’t everywhere but you can piece together the important parts.
And also what’s wrong with communicating on the radio?
Also MP is the fun police, we’re not here to have it.

Well, we could get some camera gear on the MP Preparations so that there’s no need for Helmets.
And about that “70% Of the Rounds there’s a sole CMP/MP”, we can also looks at the other 30% of the rounds, in which the MP Dept. grows larger.
I just feel that It would be a cool addition to have, specially for when you got multiple MPs and want to keep some control over them, or to see when they get deployed as Honor Guard or to arrest a Marine in FoB.

Make the camera on the body armor instead of helmet. And while you are at it, make it so you can turn it off so you can do some police brutality on some PFCs.

Military Police are Working Joes with human skin on confirmed. Now even with cameras on the uniform too.

I agree, we need bodycams on the armor. Not only can you then turn it off for perfectly legal activities, but then you still get to wear fashionable headwear and it doesn’t introduce some half a dozen extra camera gears that inevitably will be sold to, stolen by or otherwise taken by the marines immediately. It’d at least be nice to have something to look at while you’re sitting in the brig with nothing else to do.

I only wear a helmet as honor guard, and even then I hate that damn helmet, it’s ugly a sin. I’ll keep my ball cap TYVM

That’s why instead of Helmets, we should have bodycamps!
