Description

I-City is a development area in Shah Alam, a city in Malaysia. In 2022, a partnership with Huawei technologies for safe city developments was announced. It appears that it will be used to facilitate sensor based analytics and predictive policing, implying the use of biometrics or other behavioural computer vision tools.

I-Berhad chairman Tan Sri Lim Kim Hong said the next generation of i-City involves Artificial Intelligence (AI) enhancements – converging smart home, smart city and property technology to create better value for people living, working and visiting the city. "Imagine visiting a vibrant city with busy on-going economic activities minus the traffic congestion. Imagine being able to commute seamlessly with autonomous buses that arrive on time. "Imagine a city that is able to work together with enforcement units for crime prevention before crime happens. Imagine moving into an office that has all the AI infrastructure in place for the company's growth and resource planning purposes, that is the kind of ultrapolis i-City aims to be in the future," he said in a statement today 2

Commenting on the partnership, Huawei Enterprise Malaysia Managing Director David Li said “With the collaboration between i-City and Huawei, we will be working on developing the technology and infrastructure needed to support the bandwidth required in bringing together disparate data from millions of smart internet-enabled devices such as smartphones, CCTVs and sensors among others, make sense of these data with advanced analytics technology and then implementing AI and machine learning for decision feedback within seconds for i-City to run seamlessly.” 1
