The Dubai Police is planning to deploy smart vehicles for facial and licence plate recognition. It will add 400 Ghiath smart patrols in the next five years.
Lieutenant-General Abdullah Khalifa Al Marri, commander-in-chief of the force, said the AED 196 million deal will see the made-in-UAE patrols hit Dubai streets soon which feature a 360-degree camera, eight exterior surveillance cameras, and a facial and licence plate recognition system.
The patrols also have an integrated 16-inch central screen, a powerful onboard computer linked to the main control centre, a large passenger display as well as an android tablet connected to the dispatcher besides a driver behaviour camera and in-cabin monitoring.
Other features include a custom-built rear bench, grills, a protective cage, a specially designed compartment in the boot to store rescue and safety equipment and the Ghiath fleet will be expanded to include a drone edition, SWAT vehicles, rescue and first responder vehicles, e-vehicles, E-bikes and more.
