Smart speakers Echo will help policemen

Smart things penetrate ever more deeply into our lives. They simplify many of its aspects and give a lot of useful information. For example, recently the British police decided to use Amazon's smart Echo speakers to help the population and prevent crime.



The Lancashire Police Department will use the Amazon Echo columns to send out information messages about missing persons and wanted people, as well as any other useful information that will make it possible to save a person's life. In addition, the smart column will inform the police about criminal activity and provide operational summaries and data on what is happening around. As the representative of the police department of the county of Lancashire, Rob Flanagan,

"If we can thus reduce the burden on our call centers, and also with the help of new technologies, we will give citizens the necessary information, without forcing them to call the police, this will already be a great success. However, if the experiment is successful and UK citizens accept this innovation, we will also have to work on confidentiality issues. The fact is that witnesses of crimes often want to remain anonymous, informing the police about the commission of an offense. Intelligent electronics with a voice recognition system deprives a person of the opportunity to remain incognito, and the transmitted messages are stored on company servers that can be subjected to hacker attack.
