Indian emerging tech startups have built solutions based on video analytics technology and computer vision to step up safety and security, law enforcement, and traffic management while assuring protection even in high traffic zones or crowded locations Image: Shutterstock Rising crimes and safety concerns worldwide have made video surveillance an utmost necessity across all industries for physical security. With inflating global threats, governments are becoming increasingly proactive and investing heavily in deploying video surveillance infrastructure to manage crowds or detect threats across sectors like defence, railways, traffic management, to name a few among many. However, the massive amounts of video data come with challenges--from storage to real-time surveillance to data security. Emerging tech, such as cloud storage, video encryptions, and AI-enabled tools, can bring a paradigm shift in surveillance and security. AI algorithms can analyze each frame in real-time, and its self-learning capabilities enable identifying, tracking, and controlling any object in the recording.
