Making CCTV surveillance smarter, a team from the Indian Institute of Technology-Bombay (IIT) has developed a technology, Surakshavyuh, that provides real-time analysis to alert security systems and can eliminate unrequired footage in offline scrutiny. The product has been deployed even on campus to aid in contact tracing and physical distancing amid Covid-19.

The technology has been developed by the National Center of Excellence in Technology (NCETIS) at IIT Bombay in collaboration with SrivisifAI Technologies Pvt. Ltd, a Pune-based start-up developing AI-enabled safety and security software solutions. It has been installed at Naval Dockyard Visakhapatnam and several other locations.
