As always, technology plays an integral role in supporting Police operations and deployments. This spirit of innovation was amply demonstrated at the Marina Bay Singapore Countdown 2022 via the SPF's Crowd@MarinaBay app. Developed by a team from the Central Police Division, it helped to keep members of the public safe by sharing information on crowd control levels. In May 2023, the SPF’s Scam Public Education Office also took its anti-scam messages online to more effectively reach out to the public.

In 2023, Police patrol robots continued to join deployments, showcasing their unique capabilities on the ground. In September 2023, when a bomb disposal operation was conducted at a construction site along Upper Bukit Timah Road, the SPF also deployed unmanned aerial vehicles to successfully support its planning and operations.
