Estraffic announced on the 24th that it has been selected as the general contractor for the police body camera introduction project and will be participating as KT's body camera supply partner to supply a total of 14,000 high-performance body cameras to 2,045 locations nationwide.
This project was launched as the legal basis for introducing body cameras was established by the revision of the Police Officers' Duty Execution Act. The main purpose is to collect data necessary for designing an information strategy plan (ISP) for the advancement of AI-based smart security infrastructure and the use of AI for each user.
Based on its experience in supplying and maintaining a composite terminal (ST-PS20M) for the past disaster safety communication network security work wireless system construction project, Estraffic plans to cooperate with KT in this project as well to provide a system based on high-performance hardware terminal and communication technology.
The body cam being supplied this time features 4K resolution, 5G communication network, infrared shooting, and Hot-Swap function that allows battery replacement, which enhances on-site response capabilities. The control system required for video storage and management will undergo functional definition and technical consultation in the subsequent business stage.
With this project, Estrafik plans to focus on expanding its existing business, such as railway communication solutions, as well as developing next-generation transportation infrastructure solutions, such as smart stations. In particular, it is also accelerating the development of technologies for building smart city infrastructure, such as AI-based integrated control systems, real-time monitoring, and abnormal behavior detection.
Meanwhile, according to the U.S. Department of Justice, the global body camera market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 34.23% from approximately KRW 5.5 trillion in 2024 to approximately KRW 57.3 trillion in 2033.
An Estrafic official said, “This bodycam project will be the starting point for building AI-based infrastructure that will increase the efficiency and safety of police sites through cooperation with KT,” adding, “We plan to expand our global competitiveness through continuous technology development and consortium cooperation.”
