University of Minnesota Professors Tom Fisher (College of Design) and Saif Benjaafar (College of Science and Engineering) have partnered with Hennepin County and the City of Minneapolis to envision a next generation 911 system. Through a process that is informed by, and in support of, existing efforts by the community partners, the co-PIs will explore applying artificial intelligence, machine learning, and other technologies to help bring a greater level of adaptability and responsiveness to the existing 911 system.
