Saudi Arabia’s first electric police patrol vehicle has been demonstrated with the AI EagleEye Intelligent Patrol platform, a drone that can be mounted and launched from the vehicle.
Zenith Technologies announced the integration of its cutting-edge system with Saudi at the World Defense Show in Riyadh during 4th – 8th February, 2024.
The Lucid electric vehicle, leveraging Zenith’s AI EagleEye Intelligent Patrol platform, was prominently displayed at the Ministry of Interior’s pavilion during the event – and led a city -wide parade of security vehicles in Riyadh.
The AI EagleEye is the world’s first lightbar-embedded AI drone, where real-time disparate intelligence is communicated to police headquarters that aids in the identification of major crime, on-road offenders, and minor infringements.
Zenith Technologies says fusing of the electric patrol vehicle is “an unprecedented level of AI-led transformation into Saudi Arabia’s security patrol fleet”.
“This significant event further positions Zenith’s technology with an instrumental potential in the nation’s defense and security infrastructure, and underscores the fusion of state-of-the-art technologies and visionary leadership, driving Saudi Arabia’s commitment to safeguarding its citizens and the advent of a flourishing tourism industry,” it added.
The platform uses six embedded AI cameras that provide real-time streaming of 360-degree situational awareness; Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR), Face-Recognition (Fr); Speed-enforcement in addition to a plethora of other AI-deep learning correlated data points.
This empowers law enforcement’s capacities to respond swiftly and effectively to security threats, said Zenith, adding that the “Uniquely disruptive proposition is in its AI-drone that extenuates those capabilities from the Patrol vehicle into the Sky, streaming footage and key information to central command at a press of a button, whether that be a traffic jam or a serious search and rescue situation.”
