1978 HCL Security, a subsidiary of 1980 HCL Infosystems, a leading Indian systems integration company, has chosen 20 Barco to be the visualisation partner in a prestigious project to set up a new C4i (Command, Control, Communication, Computing and Intelligence) centre in Delhi. The project, due to be completed this month, is to provide a sophisticated surveillance system for communication with Delhi patrol officers during the Commonwealth Games 2010 being held from 3-14 October.

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.

    David Crawford reviews developments in temporary ITS. Widespread take-up of technologies such as Bluetooth and wi-fi are encouraging the emergence of more sophisticated, while still cost effective, ITS responses to the traffic issues posed by temporary road situations such as work zones and special events.
