Introducing a new fleet of Smart Patrol cars, Dubai Police will soon have 12 cameras on each of its patrol cars for better surveillance and monitoring. Each smart patrol car will be mounted with intelligent light bars featuring automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) and 360-degree video recording.
The cameras will monitor Dubai’s roads in real time and broadcast live video to Dubai Police’s control room. Using a network of police cars, the technology makes it easier to monitor and detect any violations.
“These cars are already in production and eventually the aspiration is to transform the entire fleet with intelligent light bars. The first generation of these cars could only monitor one lane. The latest technology allows all lanes to be monitored at the same time,” explained Russel Hammad, CEO of Zenith Security Systems.
If a wanted car is spotted on Dubai’s roads, the police officer on patrol receives a notification, informing him to take action. Eight cameras on the light bar allow automatic number plate recognition — a technology which allows police to flag vehicles with a history of violations. Four additional cameras provide a 360-degree view around the patrol car.
