The Use Of Augmented Reality Technology To Fight Crime

The police force in some countries has now embraced the technology of Augmented Reality (AR) for help in eradicating evil.

Instead of using images and video footage of the events of the crime, the police force of Bedfordshire using Microsoft Hololens to record the scene of the crime with the headset AR in the scene, to show events in the SCENE to the investigators and officials in the police force as a whole.

3D space generated by the Hololens is theoretically more accurate. Officers can come and see the SCENE virtually, than merely viewing a photo or video footage that is not necessarily capable of exposing the SCENE as a whole.

AR has now revolutionized the police in fighting crime. Police at the scene using Augmented Reality headset to record the crime scene, upload it directly to the Central Office, and investigators in the Office can investigate the crimes, practically all right?

Netherlands police also have developed hardware and software for use in augmented reality scene.

The purpose of this system is to provide assistance or guidance to the police who first served in the scene or an officer who was forced to investigate the case of the open fields of expertise.

For example, a police officer came to the scene to investigate the murder with the use of the poison.

Does he know what can be used as evidence as material for investigation? With AR, a virtual arrow can appear and point to a piece of evidence such as a bottle, with a message that says "Bag this please".

With AR, officers who are "lacking" even, can solve cases like an expert.

When the police officer on the scene scoured the area of the CRIME SCENE, recordings from the camera on his shoulder or Hololens sent to forensic scientists or specialists of the crime in a different location.

Colleagues in the Office is adding information and notes ranging from a request to explore a specific area with a large arrow or by directing the officer on site for pocketing some stuff as evidence on display AR officer through the device mounted on the head like the Google Glass.

Osterhout Design Group (ODG) located in San Francisco, USA, has designed a pair of glasses smart AR called R7 which will be very useful for law enforcement and fight crime, as well as special operations and traffic enforcement.

These glasses have Imaging software Biometric Face Recognition Technology that can be switched on when the Imatra police officers make contact with someone.

The software identifies the person by comparing it with the database and provides information such as name, address, contact information, criminal history, and pending claims.

It can also identify the license plate number of the vehicle, helping officers see in the dark, and has detection of explosives and Narcotics Residency Residency Module (ENRAM) that emits a laser 12 arrays capable of detecting explosive residue or narcotics at a person or object.

During the trial in court, R-7 Smartglasses can also assist the officer to do a walk-throughs on scene anywhere in the display 3-D completely.

Along, another AR technology manufacturing companies in China are currently revolutionizing the police in China. China's Zhengzhou police using high-tech AR goggles, making use of facial recognition systems for law enforcement, surveillance, and combat crime.

This high-tech glasses can take pictures and run it through a central database to reveal who they see and what that person is planned.

The data revealed by the glasses are not just limited to the criminal records of a person and last known address but also revealed the person's place of the hotel stay as well as about the use of the Internet for some time last in detail.

New York Police Department (NYPD) is exploring what can be done with Google's Glass, to bring augmented reality to the police.

The NYPD has got several pairs of Glasses, Google and they are being tested for investigation, mostly during the patrol.

Google charges the Glass about one lakh rupees or $1500 more, depending on the model. Police in India and Tamil Nadu can be increased considerably if such device or AR glasses R7 are used in everyday policing.

Here's an illustration of how the use of AR glasses will really help a police officer while on duty:

When a police officer who was on duty at night wearing glasses AR, met a guy on the street, almost immediately, a facial recognition system embedded in his glasses to identify that person, take all the information is available about him starting from the database including past criminal history, as well as the warrant of unbilled, driving offences, etc.

At the same time, the combination sensor will be turned on a secretly issued an array of infrared and other rays that scan the body of that person and inform the police if he carried a weapon dangerous or contraband.

If the sensors detect and inform the police that foreigners only carry bag and a cell phone in his pocket and nothing resembling a gun, the police can ignore such persons and let it go.

When the AR technology has matured, the police forces will very want this technology to eradicate crime.

Law enforcement job will be much easier if they can identify any person between law-abiding civilians with a clean record, or potentially dangerous criminals who deserve law enforcement.

Imagine a scenario, where a police officer chases a suspect who happened to meet at the Metro station, where police will be able to see a blueprint of the whole Metro station along with a display of CCTV from stations connected through his glasses. It would be very easy for the police to find the villains once.

Similarly, if the police are getting a job to pursue suspects in school, when the police arrived, the facial recognition system in their glasses will quickly scan and identify the suspects, and also his personal history of expressing that particular person is suffering from mental disorder, allowing police to arrest him differently without a shot.
