The police officers who worked for the Canto Bight Police Department employed a special kind of glowrod called the police glowrod. They utilized these glowrods to patrol the coastal city of Canto Bight, which was located on the planet Cantonica. A key difference between these police glowrods and standard glowrods was their ability to function as a basic baton. Furthermore, instead of a traditional light bulb, the police glowrod incorporated a multi-spectrum illuminator array, which was used when investigating crime scenes.
