Dubai, UAE – 21 October 2025: The Dubai Government pavilion captivated local and international visitors at GITEX GLOBAL 2025 – the world's largest tech and AI event – igniting a world-class showcase of transformative next-generation breakthroughs set to redefine governance, public services, and urban life.
Convening a wide variety of government entities under one roof, the Dubai Government pavilion demonstrated how Dubai's integrated approach to AI, automation, and data intelligence is revolutionising the modern city - from smart transport and policing to maritime management, digital governance, and much more.
Each participating entity unveiled groundbreaking solutions that underscored Dubai's unwavering commitment to efficiency, foresight, and citizen-centric progress. Encompassing AI-powered decision rooms, digital twins, autonomous patrols, drones, smart inspection systems, and more, the innovations reflected Dubai's leadership in building intelligent, trusted ecosystems where technology empowers residents, enhances public services, and redefines industries and quality of life.
Unveiling Cutting-Edge Tools Enhancing EfficiencyDigital Dubai AI Agents as digital colleagues who now work alongside humans, enhancing decision-making and accelerating efficiency across the city. Among the featured showcases was the AI Room which is an immersive experience for the services available on DubaiNow app that brings human-AI interaction to life. The AI Room embodies Dubai's vision of a future where technology feels more human
Several other key Digital Dubai developments were highlighted, including CodAI; the Cell of Data and Analytical Intelligence, which strengthens AI maturity and accelerates the adoption of trusted technologies, and the Dubai Dashboard, which provides real-time, 360-degree insights powered by AI to support decision-makers in shaping Dubai's progress.
Enhancing Safety, Speed & Citywide ResponseDubai Police Drone Box initiative – part of a wider strategy to reduce emergency response times from three minutes to one. The autonomous system comprises multiple drone boxes deployed citywide as first responders to critical incidents. With 12 active units and a target of 30 by year-end, Dubai Police is redefining rapid-response efficiency through autonomous innovation.
Dubai Police also presented the Autonomous Mobile Patrol, a fully AI-powered featuring facial recognition, behaviour analysis, and license plate detection vehicle to boost public safety and operational efficiency. Developed over years of R&D, the patrol operates for up to 16 hours, self-recharges, and comes in two models – DP02 for residential areas and DP01 for highways, the latter equipped with a drone for aerial monitoring.
AI & Autonomous Mobility: Reimagining Transport EfficiencyThe Dubai Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) AutoCheck 360, an AI-powered Automated Vehicle Inspection System transforming government service delivery through computer vision and IoT. The platform eliminates human error and applies precise, data-driven inspection standards, reducing inspection times from 17 minutes to just seven.
Also on display was the Trackless Tram, a breakthrough in autonomous public transport. Operating without physical tracks, it uses optical navigation, GPS, and LiDAR to follow virtual routes, while AI ensures obstacle detection and smooth interaction with city traffic. Offering greater flexibility, safety, and sustainability at lower operating costs, the Trackless Tram advances Dubai's vision for intelligent and eco-friendly mobility.
Transforming Autonomous and Sustainable Maritime ServicesDubai's Ports, Customs and Free Zone Corporation Marsa, an innovative digital platform that simplifies yacht docking and management across the city. Through the portal, yacht owners can view real-time marina availability, reserve berths, and pay securely online within minutes. Accompanying this was the launch of Port Eye, a world-class smart drone system enhancing port surveillance, safety, and environmental monitoring. Set for deployment across Port Rashid, Dubai Maritime City, and Dubai Drydocks from November 2025, the drone autonomously scans ports to detect gas leaks and air-quality changes, transmitting real-time data to control rooms for rapid analysis. AI integration enables round-the-clock operations and faster, safer inspections, reinforcing Dubai's leadership in autonomous maritime innovation.
Accelerating Intelligent City OperationsDubai Municipality DANA project, a cutting-edge smart digital system aimed at revolutionising city management and accelerating Dubai's digital transformation. DANA has been trained across multiple real-world scenarios to support key municipal sectors including land management, urban planning, and building services. The system enables users to access accurate, data-driven insights on land, buildings, and property information, helping streamline operations and enhance decision-making. Currently deployed across Jumeirah Village Circle (JVC) and Emirates Hills, DANA will soon expand to include more areas and datasets in Dubai.
Another innovation on display for GITEX GLOBAL 2025 audiences was Dubai Live, a dynamic digital twin platform that provides real-time, interactive data about the city. Fully integrated with Dubai Municipality's internal systems, the platform consolidates live municipal data to support smarter planning, sustainability, and service delivery.
