If the identification is positive, the arrest protocol for the identified person is advanced in two steps.
“The camera has a confidence level of 90%. The 10% is complemented by the work of the police force,” he explained. Leandro BiskupovichUndersecretary of Technology Applied to Security in Carlos Pasetti Square in Villa Nueva.
