A network of security cameras combined with advancing artificial intelligence capabilities will speed up how first responders act on public safety incidents, according to Motorola Solutions Chief Technology Officer Mahesh Saptharishi.

Speaking at Fortune’s Brainstorm AI conference in San Francisco on Tuesday, Saptharishi described AI capabilities like real time language translation and image recognition that can change the way first responders react, overcoming things like language barriers on 911 calls. Saptharishi estimated that saving 60 seconds from the average 911 response time could save 10,000 lives per year.
