WA police surveillance cameras: AI technology to monitor public spaces
WA police launch real-time AI camera surveillance to catch criminals
WA Police will become the first force in the country to use real-time AI-generated facial recognition in public spaces.
The state government on Friday launched the Overt Live Facial Recognition program with a trial of the cameras at the police academy in Joondalup
The technology monitors groups of people from police vans and compares faces against a database of targets in real-time.
