7,000 AI cameras for security installed by Honeywell in Bengaluru

30 Mar 2023 CW Team

As part of phase one of the Bangalore Safe City Project, Honeywell has finished installing more than 7,000 video cameras driven by artificial intelligence (AI) devices across 3,000 locations throughout Bengaluru, as well as a command-and-control centre. The city police will employ the AI cameras for monitoring and incident early detection. According to the American business, it will also be used to gather real-time data for later study.

Ashish Modi, President, Honeywell India & Honeywell Building Technologies, Asia stated that, “Honeywell’s Bangalore Safe City project is an example of how technology can be used to help improve the safety and security of all Bangalore’s citizens, while at the same time helping city administrators make more informed choices in near real-time.”

The Bengaluru City Police would be strengthened by Honeywell's solutions, according to CH Pratap Reddy, the city's police commissioner, by enhancing real-time incident monitoring. AI cameras are being installed in a number of Indian cities on a temporary or permanent basis for surveillance, traffic control, and real-time threat identification. For instance, more than 700 cameras have purportedly been connected to AI systems as part of the Lucknow smart city project to monitor traffic signals in the city.

These AI cameras frequently employ face recognition technology (FRT) for surveillance, security, and identity identification. Notwithstanding worries that India lacks a formal law to regulate the use of these technologies, several state and national government agencies have used or intend to implement these solutions. Concerns concerning the accuracy of these AI solutions, which may result in incorrect identification, have also been expressed by rights groups.
