Bengaluru's KR Market to Get Smart Parking with AI Surveillance
Imagine a parking lot at KR Market in Bengaluru getting a major upgrade!
It's like giving the parking lot a brain and a security system.
The new parking area will have space for cars and scooters.
There will be special spots for women and people with disabilities, too.
Instead of tickets, you'll pay digitally.
Plus, around 85 smart cameras will be watching to keep things safe.
These cameras use AI to recognize faces and track license plates, making it harder for bad things to happen.
It's all part of making parking easier and more secure, just like the parking lot at Freedom Park!
KR Market in Bengaluru will get a smart parking hub with AI surveillance.
The project is given to a private company by the GBA for ten years.
The parking hub will have space for 200 cars and 400 two-wheelers.
The system will feature ticketless entry, digital payments, and AI-powered cameras.
The redevelopment is expected to be completed within six months.
