Overview
- The Interior Minister said 239 cameras now feed the National Police command center known as the C4, with a goal of connecting more than 3,000.
- The C4 uses artificial intelligence to read license plates, count people, flag risky behavior, and match faces to RENIEC photo records to identify wanted suspects.
- Officials reported recent arrests that began with C4 alerts, with police units dispatched immediately after detections.
- Barranco launched a 115‑camera network with facial and plate recognition, five panic buttons, and fiber links to its control room that coordinates with police and firefighters.
- Public‑transport operators, citing a stalled 40,000‑bus camera plan and missing Transport Ministry sign‑off, are paying for cameras and panic buttons that will connect to Police Central 105.
