¨     AI powered Pilgrim Command Centre inaugurated at Tirumala.

¨     India’s first AI-driven Integrated Command and Control Centre (ICCC) at Tirumala was inaugurated by Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu.

¨     The ICCC was established to predict crowds, manage queues faster, enhance safety, and monitor cyber threats.

¨     The facility was located at Vaikuntam Queue Complex–I and integrated 6,000 AI-enabled cameras.

¨     A technical team monitored 3D maps and live dashboards for real-time operations.

¨     The system was reported to process 3,60,000 payloads per minute and generate 2.5 billion inferences daily.

¨     The command hub was designed to predict sarva darshan wait times from Alipiri and visualize congestion in 3D.

¨     At that time, about 4,500 devotees per hour were receiving darshan, and the target was raised to 5,500.

¨     A new complex named Venkatadri Nilayam was also inaugurated to accommodate 4,000 pilgrims free of cost.

¨     The complex included 16 dormitories, 2,400 lockers, two dining halls, and a tonsuring hall.

¨     AI-based prasadam-making equipment was launched to ensure large-scale preparation with consistent quality.
