Transport dept to set up AI-powered cameras at entry points to Delhi

The Delhi transport department will soon set up artificial intelligence-powered cameras at entry points to the national capital to check traffic violations, including those of pollution control norms. “Not only pollution control, but these cameras will also detect other offences. One of the cameras will read number plates and the system will identify the vehicle’s owner and also generate other details. It will detect whether the vehicle has a valid PUCC and if not, the diver will get an e-challan,” an official said.

“The data will be integrated with the e-challan system. There are also plans to integrate this with the environmental compensation cess collected by the MCD on behalf of the Delhi government.
