In a significant move towards enhancing stadium security, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) has proposed the installation of 300 to 350 AI-enabled cameras at M.

Demonstrating their commitment to the project's success, RCB has pledged to cover the entire one-time cost, estimated at ₹4.5 crore. Staqu, renowned for its successful collaborations with state police forces, will provide cutting-edge facial recognition and intelligent monitoring capabilities to facilitate enhanced crowd management, setting new standards for public safety and ensuring a seamless matchday experience for all attendees.
