Monitor wizards


CCTV footage showing two alleged robbers rushing away from the crime scene at some flats in Penang last year. CCTV surveillance can help reduce crime - but is anybody monitoring what the cameras show?

Camera surveillance can help us identify criminals on the streets, monitor maids caring for babies, and even check on what teachers are saying in classrooms. But how much are we willing to use technology to do all this?

TECHNOLOGY enables us to see, hear and remember beyond our senses – shouldn’t we take full advantage of it? Being on holiday is great, but for those of you currently away from home as part of the seasonal festivities, it may cross your mind that your house is currently empty – and extremely inviting to burglars.
