Singapore eyes more cameras, technology to boost law enforcement
Singapore is looking to expand its use of cameras and technology to better support law enforcers and first responders. These include plans to tap sensors, video analytics, artificial intelligence (AI), automation, and drones to ease manpower shortages and improve service efficiencies. As it is, the police have deployed almost 90,000 cameras in public locations, such as car parks and residential estates, across the island. And "many more" will be rolled out in the coming years, according to Minister for Home Affairs and Minister for Law K Shanmugam, who spoke at Parliament on Monday. Describing these cameras as "a game-changer" in deterring and investigating crimes, he said the devices had helped the police solve 4,900 cases as of December 2020.

Canon’s new concept camera could be beneficial to your health
Canon has revealed a rather curious concept for a camera that just might perk you up, literally. The Posture Fit, as it's being called in concept, would help users maintain a healthy seated position while sitting at their desk. The Canon Posture Fit detects if you're sitting down at the desk it's placed on, where it will perk up and keep an eye on your seating habits. After sixty minutes, the device will remind you to stand up and take a quick break should you need it. The device also warns you if you're slumping into a bad posture for too long, sending a reminder to correct your seating position to avoid causing stiffness or pain. At the end of the day, users can check their posture stats via an app that can be connected to the Canon Posture Fit.

The DJI FPV drone takes you into the skies with its 4K camera and video goggles
The DJI FPV has officially landed – and this 'First Person View' flier is promising to be an exciting cross between a racing drone and a cinematic, sky-based camera like the DJI Mavic Air 2 . (Want to skip to our early impressions? Head to our hands-on DJI FPV drone review ). The DJI FPV differs from the company's other drones in one key way – rather than flying it via a video feed on a controller screen, you instead get an on-board view thanks to some bundled, head-mounted goggles. This promises to give you the experience of flying like an eagle, or being in the real-world cockpit of a plane on Microsoft Flight Simulator . In this sense, the DJI FPV is similar to racing drones, which have become increasingly popular with the rise of professional competitions like the Drone Racing League (DRL). But DJI's new 'ready-to-fly' drone is less targeted at racing, and more towards beginners who want to try the FPV experience while shooting 4K aerial videos. These are the … [Read more...] about The DJI FPV drone takes you into the skies with its 4K camera and video goggles
