Idea: HDB community roster CCTV recordings
Stabbing at Tampines: Police & Town Council ‘taichi’ responsibility?
April 25th, 2010 | Author: Contributed
The victim stabbed was my 21-year old cousin, a Singaporean student. She is now fearful of going home at night, as are her family. I live in Tampines as well. The police did nothing to warn us, no posters, no newspaper reports, no CCTVs put up, no patrols around, despite appeals to the town council, MPs, and the police by her family. No newspaper reported this. This might be going on much more frequently than you are aware of in your own neighbourhood, HDB or landed, and nothing is being done about it. We might be becoming as lawless as JB, despite being told we are a “1st world country”.
The following is my letter to the Straits Times which they refused to publish:--
Stabbing incident: Install CCTVs in void decks, lifts
ON THE evening of Nov 8 last year, my 21-year-old cousin sister was stabbed in the lift of our block in Tampines as she was going home.
The assailant entered the lift seconds before the door closed, and plunged the knife in her back before demanding money.
He threatened to stab her again until she promised she would not tell the police about the attack.
My sister recovered after an operation. Since her recovery, we have repeatedly appealed to the town council and the police to install closed-circuit televisions (CCTVs) at the void deck and lifts.
We also appealed for posters to be put up to raise public awareness of the unsolved stabbing.
We feared that the attack on my sister could happen to other residents.
Unfortunately, the town council told us the police should take up our suggestions while the police said it was the town council’s job.
The only response thus far to our appeal was a letter from the police informing us of increased patrols.
We wrote back, stating that the measure may not be sufficient, given the spate of robberies within a 1km radius of our block in the past six months.
We understand that several victims had to be treated in hospital.
In the same letter, which we copied to the town council, we appealed for the installation of CCTVs.
After waiting for three months for a reply, we gave up. We worry when we walk around our neighbourhood, especially after dark.
We should not feel this way and hope the authorities will act effectively to make residents feel safer in their own neighbourhood.

////////////////////////////////
RH:
1. Today's ST article that some Town Councils even install dummy CCTVs in HDB lift landings and inside lifts highlights 3 problems with CCTVs:
a. Cost of buying and installing CCTVs
b. Cost of hiring [security] personnel to MONITOR these CCTVs
c. Recording all the feeds from all the CCTVs
2. As for Cost of buying and installing CCTVs, the obvious solution is to buy in bulk with a big, combined tender, besides shopping for the most cost-effective brands and models.
3. As for Cost of hiring [security] personnel to MONITOR these CCTVs [since they are of little use if nobody is watching], we can copy a solution used in Hongkong and some other cities, and that is to channel the feeds or signals from these CCTVs to the HDB rooftop central TV antenna terminal or StarHub cable tv terminal in each HDB block, so that each and every tv set in each of the flats in the block, whether watching over the air channels or cable tv, can switch on their tv, tune in to the CCTV channels, and watch in realtime each of the CCTV feeds. This already marketed solution used in many cities may allow each tv set to 'tune in' to a particular CCTV feed signal, eg, a particular in-Lift CCTV or a composite split-screen image of many CCTV feeds like those on security guards' monitors. Feeds can also alternate from different CCTV or CCTV groups so that every CCTV feed can be watched in turn. With this system, and with publicity given to this system, would-be robbers will think twice about robbing, since they may be seen in realtime and an alert watcher could instantly call the police [have the nearest police station hotline given together with the notices of each block's new CCTV system, in the form of a handy card or calendar or standee].
4. As for Recording all the feeds from all the CCTVs, this takes work, time and money. It should be done, nevertheless, if the Town Council can afford these. If not, why not get cooperative households to help? Since each flat has the feeds from the CCTV available on its tv set channels, participating flats can do roster duty, in which each flat is obliged to record a set number of hours of specified CCTVs so that all the CCTVs in and near the block are recorded 24/7 every day, without pause, with back-ups in case a designated roster household fails. TCs can give a rebate on its TC charges for participating households. Of course, each participating household has to be given instructions how to do this, plus read the instructions on a website maintained by a central org or each TC.
5. This roster system could be as simple as using a VCR to record the CCTV channel but since VCRs are now obsolete, participating households could be given subsidies for, or even a free, recorder. Recorders to record tv channels include DVD-RW/R recorders [no longer sold] and HDD recorders, etc. These are now cheap. For example, an LG brand HDD Recorder with 160G hard drive can record up to 460 hours = 19 days and costs just S$399. So, 10 households recording in turn, according to roster, can record 190 days = 6 months. Thus, 10 recorders will cost you S$3,990 or double this for another 10 recorders as back up.
6. To ensure roster households record diligently, TCs can do random spot checks by asking for specific recordings of specified times and dates. This is easier done than said actually, since most HDB blocks have at least 1 police, CID or ISD family and these families can easily approach a particular household to check a particular recording. If not, every block has a Block Representative, usually a PAP member, often a 'grassroots' leader, who will be only too eager to perform this 'public service'.
7. TCs and police also have to decide how long recordings have to be retained before overwriting the files. In the event of a robbery, etc, CCTV footage will then be available to identify the criminal offender. If lapses in recordings is a big problem, negligent households can be shamed, or even prosecuted since by accepting a free or subsidised recorder, plus maybe a rebate in TC fees, roster households are probably bound by duty not to be negligent.
8. Thus, with some expenditure and organisation, each and every HDB block -- in which 85% of the pop lives -- will be well covered with CCTV security. What is more important is that instead of passively expecting their security to be provided by the TCs and police, each and every flat in each and every HDB block [private condos have their own security guards and CCTVs] in the entire islet of Singapore will be actively participating in their own security. A worthwhile goal in itself and won't cost much money, most of it one-time costs, while peace of mind is, as they say, priceless.
9. If desired and costs allow, this CCTV system can thus extend to cover 85% of the population living in HDB blocks. Or it can extend only to those blocks with a known criminal attack problem/s, although to install after an attack seems a little belated. The next paras relate to the invention of iCCTVs and are strictly of little relevance to the original problems of criminal attacks in Tampines TC blocks. Those faint of heart may stop here. For those who want to allow their imaginations to float higher to a nationwide system of CCTV recordings, please read on.
10. We can now easily and cheaply buy a spycam or CCTV, leave it on and connected to our home wi-fi and thus to the internet, and from any pc anywhere, see what it is pointed at. Many families use this to check on their maids or kids at home, watching through an internet browser its images.
11. That spycam uses wi-fi to connect to the internet, and is thus limited to wi-fi areas, which even using the latest 802.11n or N signals, travels a mere 70m. However, most cities are blanketed by almost 100% coverage by cellphone base station signals, which is why our smartphones can connect to the internet anywhere it is in range of its cellphone base station. Thus, if we drop the wi-fi spycam and instead, use cellphone 3G signals, we can place a spycam almost anywhere in the city, needing just an electrical power wire, for it to connect to the internet and send its images to the internet like the current wi-fi spycam. This instantly takes all the work out of spycams and makes it easy and therefore cheap, to install. We can call this new invention an iCCTV.
12. The iCCTV will be a conventional CCTV, only that it will have a chip like those in smartphones, to connect to 3G base stations, so can transmit images continuously to the internet, to any pc or smartphone that knows its IP address and/or its password. Of course, since our iCCTV uses smartphone signals, it will have a SIMcard and thus need to connect to a telco operating its cellphone base station. If a telco fails for a long time, simply change the SIMcard to another telco whose base stations cover the area the iCCTV is placed. If you use a battery for the iCCTV, you don't even need a single wire at all and can simply attach it to any spot to start recording, until the battery runs out. However, most electronic devices 'hang' now and then and need to be reset. So manufacturers will need to test how long an iCCTV can record continuously before 'hanging'. Once this is known, the iCCTV can be made to auto-reset once in a while, before it would 'hang' on average. Auto-resets will take only a minute or so but it is best to 'schedule' this auto-reset during 'off-peak' times when there is unlikely to be any crime, such as in the middle of the night.
13. This means anyone anywhere in the world can watch the iCCTV images as long as he knows its IP address and/or its password. This means that participating households can be roped in to roster record practically all the iCCTVs on the islet cheaply and easily. An alternative is for the telcos themselves to record, since the images go directly through their servers. They can be requested to record and keep these recordings for a specified time. Recording media is cheap nowadays. However, the data plans for each iCCTV will have to be reasonable, since they are on 24/7 forever.
14. Thus, Tampines TC little problem is solved by para 8. The rest relate to a new invention that will take a year or two to materialise. Read up to para 8 only to solve Tampines TC problem. The rest is a future you need not worry about as only the bold will seize it.

20 April 2010
Idea: Personal Display Screen [PDS]
RH:
1. Computer-based devices are everywhere and there are 2 inflexible MUSTs for every of these devices. The first is an Input system or interface in which our human fingers or voice, input commands or texts, etc. The second interface is the Screen with which we see our input texts, the results of our inputs and commands -- such as images and videos, etc.
2. Since the first interface will eventually progress to Voice Input, which is the easiest and best, no doubt this will eventually progress to a point where we simply say our commands and texts and all these will be input into the device.
3. The second interface requires a screen display of some sort. Currently, we look at a computer monitor, a tv screen and also a screen on such as cellphones, game console, etc. Why not integrate all these different screens into a Personal Display Screen [PDS] that we then use for watching tv, as a computer monitor, ebook reader and even replacing our cellphone screen, etc?
4. A Personal Display Screen will likely be Spectacles, whether part of our eyesight corrective lenses or not. In other words, everybody will wear what looks like spectacles, except that this spectacles will incorporate a Personal Display Screen. When the PDS is not on or activated, it is exactly like ordinary spectacles and will correct eyesight for those shortsighted or longsighted, etc. When on or activated, text and images appear on these PDS and because these PDS are right in front of our eyes, these images can appear as large as the User chooses -- the effect can be like watching a huge wall-size tv, even in 3D -- possible with just a minor modification of current 3D technology.
5. Thus, this PDS will eliminate all screens thus saving space and costs. One screen for all computer-based devices, from cellphone to computer monitors to tv screens, and of course, video game consoles, handheld game devices, ebook readers and even new classes of information services, etc. This will shrink devices to tiny pocket-sized devices so we can literally carry a tv cum cellphone cum pc cum ebook reader cum video game player, etc, all in one device, since current devices are often limited by a screen that must be big enough to be readable or watchable.
6. Thus, on a metro train, when you get a cellphone call, your 'spectacles' display the name and number of the caller right in front of your eyes. Maybe, even the video image. At a size of image you can select. Your voice is captured by the left and right microphones in the frames of your spectacles while your caller's voice is through the tiny speakers also built into the spectacle frames, possibly also heard through bone conduction. Then, after the call is terminated, you resume reading your ebook or resume watching 'live' tv or video. When you reach your office desk and computer, there is no monitor but when you switch on your small box-like pc, your pc transmits images to your spectacles so you work exactly like looking at a monitor display. Your PDS will be 'paired' with its pc and other devices like current Bluetooth pairing. When collaborative work is needed, simply using the same pairing password lets many sharers 'look' at the same screen. Then, when you reach home and switch on your cable tv box [there is no tv set], again, it transmits tv images to your spectacles in whichever direction you face or sit, even to whichever room you are in. Should you feel like playing Nintendo or World of Warcraft, again, you simply switch on the console and the images are transmitted right in front of your eyeballs so the images can be as big or whatever size you choose. If someone wants to talk to you, you simply say "PDS Clear" [or touch a switch on your spectacles] and your spectacles instantly becomes clear as glass so you can see the person you talk to and she can see your eyes. In a United Nations General Assembly setting, for example, the speaker/presenter need no public address or loud speaker system to be heard. Every delegate hears him through his own 'spectacles' which allows for simultaneous translations. When the presenter wants to show a slide or video clip, he simply presses his computer remote and every delegate sees the same slide or video clip on his own PDS. At another press of the presenter's computer remote, all the PDS clear so that all the delegates can resume seeing the presenter. If a camera is also built into the spectacles, you simply say, "Photo mode" and your PDS will show you the camera's point of view. Then you say, "Zoom in...stop" to zoom in to the size you want and then "Capture" to take the photo. Or "Video mode, start" to start video capture and "Zoom in...stop [pause] zoom out...stop" to zoom in or out to the size you want and "End recording" to end recording. It is also possible to transmit to a certain defined radius to reach everybody within that radius. For example, to show a warning in every PDS within that radius to warn of a fire and to ask for an orderly evacuation of the fire area. This warning and instruction can also be heard through the spectacles. In school, it will be pretty hard for a student to sleep when the teacher can control what he sees and hears.
7. Many devices currently require a screen since this is a primary interface. By having just 1, we can shrink and even combine all appliances, simplify space and placements of tv, etc, and allow us to watch tv anytime anywhere and even connect to the internet anytime anywhere without need for clumsy [current] big appliances. Truly handsfree [if voice commands are good enough] and every imaginable kind of device from tv to computer to cellphone all shrunk into a tiny device we put in our pocket.
8. There will be many new devices made possible by this PDS, from ebook readers to portable video devices to new information systems and services, even ads -- if and when the User chooses. We will all save time or never waste time, since we can even read when hanging on a metro train strap, or watch tv in a bus or surf the internet in a cafe while waiting for our food.
9. Now, all you have to do is find funding, engineers, agree on the standards [not difficult since all formats are easily convertible, many in realtime if your computers at source are big and fast enough], and build it.

WHY SINGAPORE HAS NO ECONOMY
http://i-came-i-saw-i-solved-it.blogspot.com/2009/10/why-singapore-has-no-economy.html
.
1. Computer-based devices are everywhere and there are 2 inflexible MUSTs for every of these devices. The first is an Input system or interface in which our human fingers or voice, input commands or texts, etc. The second interface is the Screen with which we see our input texts, the results of our inputs and commands -- such as images and videos, etc.
2. Since the first interface will eventually progress to Voice Input, which is the easiest and best, no doubt this will eventually progress to a point where we simply say our commands and texts and all these will be input into the device.
3. The second interface requires a screen display of some sort. Currently, we look at a computer monitor, a tv screen and also a screen on such as cellphones, game console, etc. Why not integrate all these different screens into a Personal Display Screen [PDS] that we then use for watching tv, as a computer monitor, ebook reader and even replacing our cellphone screen, etc?
4. A Personal Display Screen will likely be Spectacles, whether part of our eyesight corrective lenses or not. In other words, everybody will wear what looks like spectacles, except that this spectacles will incorporate a Personal Display Screen. When the PDS is not on or activated, it is exactly like ordinary spectacles and will correct eyesight for those shortsighted or longsighted, etc. When on or activated, text and images appear on these PDS and because these PDS are right in front of our eyes, these images can appear as large as the User chooses -- the effect can be like watching a huge wall-size tv, even in 3D -- possible with just a minor modification of current 3D technology.
5. Thus, this PDS will eliminate all screens thus saving space and costs. One screen for all computer-based devices, from cellphone to computer monitors to tv screens, and of course, video game consoles, handheld game devices, ebook readers and even new classes of information services, etc. This will shrink devices to tiny pocket-sized devices so we can literally carry a tv cum cellphone cum pc cum ebook reader cum video game player, etc, all in one device, since current devices are often limited by a screen that must be big enough to be readable or watchable.
6. Thus, on a metro train, when you get a cellphone call, your 'spectacles' display the name and number of the caller right in front of your eyes. Maybe, even the video image. At a size of image you can select. Your voice is captured by the left and right microphones in the frames of your spectacles while your caller's voice is through the tiny speakers also built into the spectacle frames, possibly also heard through bone conduction. Then, after the call is terminated, you resume reading your ebook or resume watching 'live' tv or video. When you reach your office desk and computer, there is no monitor but when you switch on your small box-like pc, your pc transmits images to your spectacles so you work exactly like looking at a monitor display. Your PDS will be 'paired' with its pc and other devices like current Bluetooth pairing. When collaborative work is needed, simply using the same pairing password lets many sharers 'look' at the same screen. Then, when you reach home and switch on your cable tv box [there is no tv set], again, it transmits tv images to your spectacles in whichever direction you face or sit, even to whichever room you are in. Should you feel like playing Nintendo or World of Warcraft, again, you simply switch on the console and the images are transmitted right in front of your eyeballs so the images can be as big or whatever size you choose. If someone wants to talk to you, you simply say "PDS Clear" [or touch a switch on your spectacles] and your spectacles instantly becomes clear as glass so you can see the person you talk to and she can see your eyes. In a United Nations General Assembly setting, for example, the speaker/presenter need no public address or loud speaker system to be heard. Every delegate hears him through his own 'spectacles' which allows for simultaneous translations. When the presenter wants to show a slide or video clip, he simply presses his computer remote and every delegate sees the same slide or video clip on his own PDS. At another press of the presenter's computer remote, all the PDS clear so that all the delegates can resume seeing the presenter. If a camera is also built into the spectacles, you simply say, "Photo mode" and your PDS will show you the camera's point of view. Then you say, "Zoom in...stop" to zoom in to the size you want and then "Capture" to take the photo. Or "Video mode, start" to start video capture and "Zoom in...stop [pause] zoom out...stop" to zoom in or out to the size you want and "End recording" to end recording. It is also possible to transmit to a certain defined radius to reach everybody within that radius. For example, to show a warning in every PDS within that radius to warn of a fire and to ask for an orderly evacuation of the fire area. This warning and instruction can also be heard through the spectacles. In school, it will be pretty hard for a student to sleep when the teacher can control what he sees and hears.
