The 2nd Public Security Technology Expo in Lianyungang, Jiangsu Province, offered a futuristic vision of urban safety from September 16-19, drawing global attention to China's advancements in AI-driven security systems, emergency response drones, and smart traffic management solutions.
AI Takes Center Stage
Exhibitors demonstrated real-time facial recognition systems capable of identifying individuals in crowded spaces while preserving privacy through anonymized data processing. A spokesperson for the event emphasized these tools aim to 'enhance urban efficiency, not control populations.'
Drones Redefine Emergency Response
Next-generation quadcopters equipped with thermal imaging and medical payload delivery systems were showcased, designed for disaster relief operations. One model demonstrated autonomous navigation through simulated collapsed buildings.
Smart Infrastructure Integration
Interactive displays revealed city-wide traffic management platforms using 5G connectivity to coordinate emergency vehicles, optimize traffic flow, and predict accident hotspots. Developers highlighted potential applications for Southeast Asian megacities facing similar urbanization challenges.
The expo attracted representatives from 23 countries and regions, signaling growing international interest in China's public safety technology ecosystem.
