Dubai is at the forefront of technological innovations to ensure the safety of its citizens. Dubai is one of the safest places in the United Arab Emirates, but families insist on increasing surveillance to live peacefully in their homes. For this reason, the local police announced a new system that promises to revolutionize the care mechanisms for residents.
The city forces confirmed the partnership of Gitex Global with e&UAE to ensure the protection of Dubai’s society through the installation of revamped technology that guarantees maximum care in homes and buildings, with technology never seen before in other places around the world.
How will the curious surveillance system of the Dubai Police work?
The Dubai Police announced the launch of a new surveillance system for homes and provided details of how this mechanism will be ahead of any innovation. It consists of motion detectors that are capable of detecting “strange behaviors” within a residence, distinguishing them from the everyday ones.
Through this system, door and window sensors are applied that can capture unauthorized or unusual openings and issue an alert to a monitoring center that operates 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Additionally, to manipulate these types of alarms, users will have a touchscreen device that will allow them to control the already installed elements in their home from anywhere they are.
Controlled neighborhoods in Dubai, the new initiative of the police.
This new system announced by the Dubai Police will apply IoT technology and ensure a rapid response from the security forces who will be able to detect unusual movements and head as quickly as possible to the home where the incident occurred. As announced by the authorities of e&UAE, the intention is to keep residential areas controlled in smart and safe environments.
This mechanism will have superior effectiveness because it will be connected to a specialized operations room that will effectively alert the security forces. Meanwhile, individuals will receive notifications through a mobile application when any movement is detected and will be able to choose between managing the system themselves or connecting it to specialized personnel.
Surveillance on the beaches: another new bet from Dubai.
Security remains a pressing desire for Emirati authorities, and the implementation of new systems is also a focal point for governments. Therefore, to make the experience of residing in Dubai safer, citizens can also enjoy the beaches at night without feeling unprotected. Due to high temperatures, some visitors and locals choose to visit the sandy shores when there is no sun and relax by the sea.
To allow them to do so without worries, Dubai authorities have applied control mechanisms to ensure that bathers feel safe. The city’s public beaches are equipped with shark nets and giant lights that leave no dark corners. Additionally, there are lifeguards on duty 24 hours a day and night vision binoculars to monitor bathers who choose to swim in the early hours of the morning. Furthermore, they are developing a new mechanism using artificial intelligence to improve lighting and safety in these areas with cameras built under this technology.
