Welcome to Minority Report IRL: Police armed with pre-crime detection tools
Jan 27, 2012 Software
Welcome to Minority Report in real life as police are being increasingly federalized by Homeland Security and taken deeper into the intelligence apparatus to hunt homegrown terrorists. Some police are armed with cutting edge crime detection tools. In New Jersey, cops can shine a red pre-crime spotlight to mark people up to a block away before they might commit a crime. The NYPD are testing a gun-scanning technology called Terahertz Imaging Detection. You could secretly be scanned to see if you are packing heat and not even know it.
