Ras Al Khaimah has introduced an advanced artificial intelligence (AI)-powered camera system across its roads to improve decision-making, crime prediction and prevention, and traffic management for the city’s police. The system, part of the ‘Safe City’ project, aims to enhance road safety and security throughout the emirate by providing real-time data.
Major General Ali Abdullah bin Alwan Al Nuaimi, Commander-in-Chief of Ras Al Khaimah Police, underscored the strategic significance of this technology. He noted that the AI-powered cameras, positioned at various roads and traffic intersections, represent some of the most cutting-edge security technologies globally.
These intelligent systems are designed to analyze traffic patterns and criminal behaviors, supplying real-time data to improve emergency response times. The sophisticated monitoring capabilities allow for early identification of potential hot spots and prediction of criminal activities, ensuring quicker intervention and significantly reducing response times for both traffic incidents and criminal cases.
The ‘Safe City’ project is a crucial element of Ras Al Khaimah Police’s strategy to enhance road safety and community security. By continuously analyzing traffic and criminal data, the system aims to lower crime rates, boost public safety, and increase resident satisfaction. The AI technology supports proactive measures, helping law enforcement to anticipate and address issues before they escalate.
Major General Al Nuaimi expressed confidence that the new AI-supported cameras will greatly contribute to the security and well-being of Ras Al Khaimah’s residents, ensuring a safer environment for all.
