The C4i centre will use Barco's latest LED-based technology, consisting of sixteen 50” display cubes along with two 46” Narrow-bezel LCD monitors and control room management suite. Nearly 1,000 police control room (PCR) vans, 12 police video monitoring vehicles and 700 other monitoring vehicles are to be linked to the centre. Live feeds from cameras will be displayed and threat information, colour-coded in red, yellow or green, according to the severity of the threat, will be flashed across the screens. Any suspicious movement, or an emergency, will be spotted and relayed to the local police.
