A new era of public safety
Between September 16 and 19, the coastal city of Lianyungang in Jiangsu Province on the eastern shores of the Chinese mainland hosted the 2nd Public Security Technology Expo. Over four days, innovators, policymakers, and tech enthusiasts gathered to showcase and explore the latest breakthroughs in safety solutions designed for tomorrow's cities.
From AI drones to data-driven policing
Standout exhibits included AI-powered surveillance drones capable of real-time threat detection, cloud-based command centers that analyze massive data streams in seconds, and wearable devices for first responders that monitor health metrics during emergencies. According to organizers, the integration of machine learning algorithms boosted detection accuracy by up to 30% in field trials.
Why it matters for global citizens
- Urban resilience: Smart tech can cut emergency response times by 40%, smoothing out the rough spots in busy city life.
- Privacy debate: As sensors multiply, so do questions around data ownership and civil liberties — a hot topic from Berlin to Bangalore.
