At the GITEX Global 2023, the Dubai Police unveiled its self-driving security patrol aimed at enhancing safety in residential areas.
Lieutenant Rashid bin Haidar from the Dubai Police's General Department of Administrative Affairs introduced the eco-friendly, fully electric patrol vehicle to the exhibition visitors. The vehicle's battery lasts up to 15 hours and can reach speeds of 5 to 7 kilometres per hour.
Designed specifically for residential zones, the patrol's main objective is to boost security coverage. It features an advanced camera with a 360-degree capture capability. Additionally, with its smart technology and artificial intelligence, the vehicle can detect criminal behaviour, recognize faces, and read car license plates.
Direct Communication:
The patrol is also equipped with direct communication technologies, allowing it to liaise in real-time with the Command and Control Center at the Dubai Police's General Operations Department.
Drone Onboard:
Lieutenant Rashid noted that the patrol includes an onboard drone.
“This drone can access areas the vehicle cannot and maintains direct wireless communication with the patrol once launched,”
he said.
