1: The K five will operate between midnight and 6:00 AM at the Times
Square subway station for two months.
With the duration of the trial,
it'll be accompanied by police officer at all times.
It will record video that can be reviewed in case of an emergency or a
crime.
It will not record audio and it will not use facial
recognition. However,
the K five does have a button that connects you immediately to a live
person that New Yorkers can utilize 24 7
with questions, concerns, or to report an incident if needed.
While I believe it is our duty to utilize state-of-the-art technology
advancements to help keep New Yorkers safe,
I believe we must do it wisely and not intrusively.
We will continue to stay ahead of those who want to harm every day. New Yorkers.
