The Indian police in Andhra Pradesh have started using AI and advanced technologies to monitor released criminals and prevent repeat offenses.
Implementation of AI Technologies
The Andhra Pradesh police in Vijayawada have implemented an AI jail monitoring system to monitor recently released criminals and prevent them from engaging in antisocial activities.
How the System Works
The system combines AI tools with CCTV surveillance and human intelligence to maintain detailed records of criminals. Facial recognition cameras placed at key locations help identify their activities and interactions.
Effectiveness and Prospects
Since implementing the system, the Vijayawada police have prevented 200 former criminals from entering the city. This has reduced crime rates and increased public safety. The system acts as a deterrent for habitual offenders.
The use of artificial intelligence by law enforcement introduces new capabilities for preventing crime and enhancing the monitoring of released inmates.
