According to map technology to help Shanghai AI surveillance system, a few seconds to identify the suspects

NEW YORK, Dec 13 (Reuters) - China has announced an intelligent surveillance system that can identify criminals from the 2 billion face databases in seconds, connecting the system to millions of CCTV cameras and using artificial intelligence to screen targets .

According to reports, the system, known as the Eye of the Dragonfly, has been in use in Shanghai to track down hundreds of wanted criminals. The technology that developed this technology is based on Shanghai Tech, The Dragonfly Eye System, which scans photographs from national databases, also includes photos of city outsiders and travelers' photos taken at airports and seaports.

According to Zhu South, a CEO and co-founder of EnTech, the South China Morning Post said: 'Our machines can easily find you in at least 2 billion people in a matter of seconds. It was a very difficult three years ago Confidence. "The system is helping Shanghai police track down criminals from more than 24 million residents.

According to the South China Morning Post, the system identified a wanted criminal who entered the station on the first day of operation of the Shanghai subway in January. After matching his appearance to the database, the Dragonfly Eye system sent his photo The police were given and arrested by the police, which helped the police arrest 567 suspects in the Shanghai subway for the next three months.

Zhu Long said: 'Take us to live in Shanghai, the city's population reached 24 million. Such a huge population for the government's regulatory work is a huge challenge without the help of science and technology is not feasible Even if we already have many cameras installed, that can be a daunting task.

He added: 'You can not watch all the videos, and searching for suspects in the video is not only time-consuming, but it requires too much resources to get meaningful results from such a huge amount of data, but AI can do it easily And rely on the existing infrastructure.Dragon Eye System will not only be used in the future for criminal identification of criminals, but it will also help ATMs identify people and make bankcards history.

But not all people welcome the technology, which is very much like the security system in the sci-fi movie Minority Report of 2002. The NGO Human Rights Watch alleges that a security system similar to that built by Photo Technology Invasion of privacy and misidentification, such a system should be designed to track and predict the behavior of dissidents and activists, including those with extreme ideas.
