Police patrol vehicles will come under Surveillance Network to monitor and record the various activities occurring in the city. Following the success of mobile CCTV surveillance in certain parts of south Chennai, the city police have decided to install hi-tech cameras in 200 of their patrol vehicles. The cameras will have 3G technology which will transmit the footage to mobile phones and tablets of senior police officers. An Officer said that it will enable this technology to send in reinforcements to police personnel at a scene of crime as and when needed. The above technological activities will help to prevent crimes, brawls and several other activities which can be handled more easier than before.
“The cameras will be connected to a router and will transmit data via a 3G connection. The footage can be streamed and viewed within minutes on the mobile phones or laptops through special software. This will help to assess the situation efficiently and guide the concerned personnel,” said R. Sudhakar, deputy commissioner of police, Adyar.
An officer said the number of cameras allotted to each zone will depend on a number of factors, including crime rates, frequency of agitations and VIP movement in the area. Following the success of mobile CCTV surveillance in certain parts of south Chennai, the Chennai City Police is gearing up to introduce the model across the city hoping that it will really help the public in many ways.
