Digital video walls to monitor city during Commonwealth Games

State of the art surveillance methods will be adopted by the Delhi police, including
installation of digital video walls at its HQ, to keep a hawk eye vigil during the Commonwealth Games next year.

Real time video footage from across the city will be beamed to 'digital video walls' that would be set up at the Delhi Police HQ when the sporting extravaganza takes place
next year, official sources said here on Saturday. The video footage from border points, Games' venues and traffic intersections can be accessed at the Central Command Unit, the construction of which is expected to be completed soon.
 
"It will be a huge hall with digital walls. There will be 24 cubes. We can have footage from different stadia and traffic intersections. We will get real time footage," city Police Commissioner Y S Dadwal told reporters here. There will be hotlines and wireless set up at the unit through which deployment can be made easily in case of an
emergency, a senior police official said.
 
To enhance security during the Games, the government has already approved a special project for setting up of a state-of-the-art dedicated communication network for Delhi
Police. The network -- Cyber Highway -- will facilitate implementation of convergent services of application, call interception and monitoring system.
