The Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) franchise has announced plans to install AI-enabled camera systems at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru ahead of the upcoming Indian Premier League (IPL) season.

The AI cameras are intended to support stadium security teams by providing real-time crowd management, identifying high-density areas and aiding safer entry and exit flows.

The system will use computer vision and analytics to monitor spectators and alert authorities to potential bottlenecks or risks, helping security personnel intervene proactively. RCB officials say the technology is part of broader efforts to improve spectator experience and safety, particularly in large-crowd environments.

The move reflects the broader adoption of AI and video analytics tools in sports venues to enhance operational efficiency and public safety.
