Computer screen grab of animation showing how Light Based Intervention System will work\u003cbr/\u003ePolice in the U.S state of New Jersey are about to deploy controversial new technology which will target people with a beam of red light before they commit a crime.\u003cbr/\u003eOfficers believe it will enable people to feel safe even when police are not visible. \u003cbr/\u003ePolice in East Orange, New Jersey are embracing the Light Based Intervention Systems as the latest \"precrime\" law enforcement technique. \u003cbr/\u003eDirect red lights will be attached to already existing surveillance cameras in the city. \u003cbr/\u003eIf a police officer monitoring one of the city's many high-definition surveillance cameras sees a crime about to occur, such as someone about to get mugged, they will remotely bathe the would-be perpetrator in red light. \u003cbr/\u003eEast Orange, New Jersey police chief William Robinson says the technology will enable people to feel safe even when police are not visible. \u003cbr/\u003e\"We wish we had the means to let people and children walking to and from schools know that they are safe and at the same time let would-be criminals know we are keeping an eye on you.
