It is more important than ever to ensure that our schools are safe and secure. One way to achieve this is using AI-powered video surveillance. This technology can help keep track of everyone who enters and exits the school, as well as monitor any activity that takes place within the building. Specifically, this data can be used to see if any unauthorized persons enter the premises or if school staff or students are leaving school grounds during school hours without permission. By using this technology, we can make sure that our schools are protected from threats both inside and outside the classroom.
AI-powered Video Surveillance
When we look at the future of school security, it is pairing a school's available data with an artificial intelligence system that is trained to detect intruders, prevent school violence, and monitor access points.
Benefits of Video in Schools
When school administrators and security teams use video surveillance as part of their school safety program, they will be able to:
- Monitor school property 24 hours a day.
- Track who is entering and exiting the school so that we can see if strangers are coming onto campus.
- Keep track of visitor sign-ins and student checkouts for information about where they are going.
- Detect when something out of the ordinary is happening and investigate further.
- Prevent school violence from happening in the first place by being able to see potential warning signs.
- Review recordings of school events to improve safety procedures.
There are many benefits to using video surveillance in our schools, and with the help of AI, we can make sure that our schools are safe and secure for everyone.
What to Consider When Installing Cameras in a School
When school administrators are looking to install cameras in their school, they should consider the following:
- The number of cameras needed.
- What type of camera is best for the school's needs.
- How the video footage will be monitored and by whom.
- Where to place the cameras in order to get the most coverage.
- The school should have a plan in place to communicate with staff and students about the use of cameras.
Our team of installers will quickly be able to assess where your coverage vulnerabilities are. They will then help school administrators determine the best placement for cameras within your school in order to most effectively protect against threats.
