According to Channel NewsAsia, Singapore's police K-9 unit is trialling mounted cameras to give officers a live feed of what their canine partners see. When the dogs detect a suspicious person, the camera feed helps officers immediately confirm whether that person is armed—giving responding officers critical seconds before engaging. It's an early-stage pilot that could improve safety for both officers and suspects.
