To do so, the analysis is divided into two parts which correspond to the two main branches of application of AI-powered video surveillance: object-centred and person-centred AI-powered video surveillance. It first uses securitisation theory to situate the debate. Next, it uses Document Analysis and coding to analyse the qualitative data.
