The state of Pernambuco plans to expand its use of technology and artificial intelligence in public safety, with a focus on modernizing its surveillance systems and integrating data from different agencies. The plan includes the installation of cameras with AI and automatic license plate recognition, as well as the use of data analytics to support police operations. The goal is to reduce crime and improve public safety in the state’s interior regions.
The state has already invested in a system of 2,000 digital cameras, and plans to expand this network to cover more areas. The use of AI and data analytics is expected to help police identify and track suspects, and to improve the effectiveness of investigations.
The plan is part of the state’s broader strategy to combat organized crime, which was a key focus of the governor’s re-election campaign.
