Source summary
Indian Railways requests AI-enabled quadruped and handheld systems for non-intrusive detection of narcotics and explosives in railway environments. At a high level, the proposal includes rugged operation, autonomous or assisted inspection, thermal/video monitoring, event alerts and location/time logging. Handheld use should support offline records, later synchronization and multilingual operation. The source also mentions facial recognition and surveillance; these are source proposals, not endorsed deployment practices or demonstrated detection capability.
