AAXN - Is Artificial Intelligence Reading Your License Plate?
What if police officers had the power to instantly scan and process license plate information from every car on the road -- including yours? No need to wonder now that a new product from Axon Enterprise (NASDAQ: AAXN) makes it possible.
Axon recently announced its Fleet 3 in-car video system, which includes a technology called automated license plate recognition. Police cars equipped with artificial intelligence cameras will automatically "look" at numerous license plates and find the ones needing attention. An officer won't be unnecessarily distracted by manually looking up the information. This announcement comes a full year before the Fleet 3 system is rolled out, allowing time to address potential privacy and ethical concerns.
