Description
Sergek is a surveillance and smart city platform developed in Kazakhstan. It integrates a network of cameras and sensors with data analysis tools to monitor people, traffic and assist law enforcement. The system is capable of facial recognition, tracking vehicles, and analyzing human mobility patterns in real time. Its adoption has drawn international attention, with countries like Indonesia exploring its capabilities for potential implementation for surveillance purposes. The management of Sergek's surveillance network in Astana has been handed over to a UAE-based company, Presight, which supports the UAE's controversial mass surveillance activities.
