To take advantage of the developments in Artificial Intelligence (AI), the Army has, in the last several years, developed in-house algorithms to analyse in real-time the inputs coming from various sensors in the field, according to sources in the security establishment. Over 145 such assets, based on these solutions, have been deployed so far.
“The Army has deployed several units of AI-powered smart surveillance systems in the northern and western borders. The system is capable of handling heterogeneous inputs from devices such as pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras and handheld thermal imagers. This has considerably reduced the requirement of manual monitoring,” a source said. “AI-based real-time monitoring software has been deployed for generating intelligence in counter-terrorist operations.”
