AI voice assistant to aid 112 helpline in 15 plus languages in Bengaluru

Bengaluru Police is planning to install an AI-powered voice assistant to its 112 emergency helpline. The smart system aims to break language barriers and allow callers to communicate in different languages, including Spanish, French, Arabic, and Indian languages such as Bengali, Manipuri, and Kashmiri, according to a report by Moneycontrol.

The initiative aims to make emergency calls easier for everyone, especially tourists, students, and migrant workers who may not speak Kannada, English, or Hindi.
