South Korea Deploys AI Cameras on Bridges to Detect and Prevent Suicides

South Korea has implemented an artificial intelligence-powered surveillance system aimed at reducing suicide rates at high-risk locations such as bridges. The system uses AI-enabled cameras to monitor individuals who linger in designated danger zones or enter restricted areas. It also detects when someone picks up dedicated suicide-prevention phones installed on the bridges. Once a potential risk is identified, the system automatically alerts first responders to intervene. The initiative reflects a broader effort to leverage technology in addressing mental health and public safety crises.
