We are equipping the MPD squad cars with license plate detection cameras, which will feed the tag numers into a computer and check the cars for stolen, out of date registrations, and warrants against the registered owner and occupants.

We will also be installing "gunshot detection" cameras in the "hot spots" of Memphis. Hey abig brothah, as soon as you arrive....

>Identified all six occupants in a moving vehicle. Wow. Amazing they could even see all six. Must have and incredible photometric database with some awesome processing power. I know some of the MI-5 folks who process CCTV feeds in London. They'd love to get their hands on something this good.

>Australia and be subjected to that kind of Big Brother surveillance <s>
