Smart road humps in dubai


Smart road humps will be the next hurdle to overcome for criminals who consider themselves innovative and strap weapons and drugs underneath their vehicles to dodge the law.

The humps, fitted with four digital cameras, were on display for the first time at the Intersec exhibition and conference at the Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre.

"The cameras can capture very detailed images from underneath the cars, along with providing the date and time when the cars were driven over the humps," said K. Sankaranarayanan, head of marketing, Mahindra Logisoft.

Sankaranarayanan pointed out that as the cameras would be installed at a safe distance inside the hump, there would be no danger of them getting damaged. "The smart humps are an innovation from the old technology because it provides high visibility and accurate information," he said, adding that this unique technology would be most suitable for use at hotel entrances and high-security zones.

"The device analyses digital phones and if someone is eavesdropping, the soundwaves will shoot up on the display screen, indicating the line has been tapped," said Winningham.-gulf news
