00:00Yes, we used to hear about facial recognition.
00:03So, people's faces are visible only in our CCTV cameras.
00:06Blurred faces are visible in it.
00:08I used to think that the cameras of American consulates are very good
00:11because they are equipped with facial recognition software.
00:13Anyway, they are very high-fi.
00:15But now the times have changed a lot
00:16and safe city cameras, etc. have become very popular.
00:20So, let's talk about this.
00:21Nazir Shah is with us, who is very concerned about the world of crimes.
00:25So, he is also concerned about the safety of the public.
00:28So, let's ask him what this is all about.
00:31Nazir Shah, this is an S4 project.
00:34It is basically a surveillance system.
00:37We used to hear about the safe city project.
00:39Will it be connected to the safe city project in the future?
00:43Or will it work separately?
00:48Yes, Ashfaq, Sindh police and Sindh province have entered a new era.
00:55The Sindh surveillance system was launched by the Prime Minister of Sindh.
00:59IG Sindh gave him a complete briefing and said
01:02that this is the only system that will cover the entire province of Sindh.
01:09And in my opinion, this is the only project of Pakistan that is covering the entire province.
01:14Because if you look at Punjab, there is no system that covers the entire Punjab.
01:18Lahore is definitely a safe city.
01:20Similarly, if you look at Balochistan or other provinces,
01:24this is the only province that has a system that covers 80,000 criminals.
01:30There is a data feed in which there will be a pop-up as soon as you see an ad.
01:37At the moment, S4, which is on the second floor of the IG Sindh office,
01:41has been made a command and control.
01:43I will show you that these screens have also been installed here.
01:47And the staff here, for 24 hours, through this system,
01:52if there is a suspect or if a car is being stolen and going to another city,
02:00it will pop up immediately.
02:02And the team sitting here will inform the relevant authority immediately.
02:07You can see here, you can check their resolutions.
02:11And in Karachi, I can tell you that there are 40 toll plazas in the whole of Sindh.
02:17Of those 40, about 18 are in Karachi,
02:21of which 209 are cameras of 8 megapixels.
02:25Basically, the cameras installed here have ANPR,
02:29that is, Automatic Number Plate System, Automatic Number Plate Recognition,
02:34and the second is FR, that is, Face Recognition.
02:37So, any person who is among those 80,000 criminals,
02:40or as the system is being updated,
02:43as soon as he comes in the range of the camera,
02:46a pop-up will be played here, and the team sitting here will inform the army.
02:49How many cameras are installed in this system?
02:54Look, we will make you talk to them here.
02:59You tell me, how many cameras of S4 are being monitored from here?
03:08And how many shifts are you working in?
03:10Yes, there are 333 cameras running right now,
03:14and we are monitoring them, on 40 toll plazas.
03:18And how many shifts are you working in?
03:20And secondly, if a car or a person comes in front of you, how will you inform them?
03:25We have an alert generator, on which two types of alerts will come.
03:29One will come from the vehicle, and the other will come from the facial.
03:34If it is a criminal, then its record will be shown here,
03:38that this is a criminal, and you should take action against him.
03:41If the vehicle is non-verified,
03:44our system will take the data from there through excise,
03:52and if there is any problem in that vehicle,
03:54then it will give us all the details, that this is the issue with this vehicle.
03:58Let me update you further,
04:01the CPO, which is called the Central Police Office,
04:04there is already a command and control system on the ground floor,
04:08which has more than 20,000 cameras,
04:11in which the traffic police, or the command and control in the civic center,
04:15all the cameras are connected.
04:16But it has been made on a different level,
04:20and this is the first step towards a safe city.
04:23As soon as the safe city starts, it will merge in it.
04:28Here you can see their resolution,
04:30if you show me the number plate,
04:32there is no need, it is clearly visible in front of you,
04:35from which toll plaza it is passing,
04:36any vehicle is coming from here, like BRV614,
04:40so it will be immediately known whether the vehicle is clear or not,
04:44if there is a report of theft or looting from AVLC or CPLC,
04:50then there will be a team of RRF on the toll plaza,
04:55which will try to stop or catch it by doing a rapid response.
05:00Let's see.
05:01If we look at it, the network of this system,
05:06it will be very easy to take action against all the drug addicts in Sindh.
05:14Absolutely.
05:15Thank you so much.
05:16Let's see how much more help we can get from this.
05:19The advantage is that there are more than 300 cameras,
05:21there are high-resolution cameras,
05:23so facial recognition is also included in them.
05:26So with that, the number plate of the vehicle
05:28and whether the vehicle is original or not will be known.
