From NJ101.5 - Super advanced cameras powered by artificial intelligence have students at New Jersey schools under constant surveillance. Several school districts are already using AI cameras, including the state's largest district. Newark schools signed a $12 million contract to install 7,700 cameras to watch its 44,000 students. The AI cameras were up and running at the start of this school year.
In South Jersey, the Glassboro Public School District is the first to partner with a company that uses AI to find firearms in schools. ZeroEyes boasts that it's the "first AI-based gun detection video analytics platform" with federal recognition.
The ZeroEyes cameras will monitor nearly 2,000 students, Pre-K through 12th grade, and 350 staff throughout four Glassboro schools. If a gun is detected, mass alerts can be sent within seconds to students' phones and digital signage throughout the buildings. “The safety of our students and staff is our top priority, and this integration adds a critical new layer of protection," said Craig Stephenson, GPSD assistant superintendent.
