Recently, Geauga County offices have partnered with two local school districts to enhance campus security by implementing the ZeroEyes system. This innovative technology utilizes artificial intelligence to detect the presence of a firearm, even if only 0.1% of the weapon is visible to surveillance cameras.
On April 30, a demonstration of the ZeroEyes system took place at the Geauga County Office Building on Ravenwood Drive. During the event, Brett Handell, Vice President of Education and Local Government Solutions at ZeroEyes, explained how the AI system is integrated into the existing network of security cameras in the area. The system is already being used effectively in Berkshire and Chardon school districts and aims to provide a safer environment for students, staff, and visitors in participating school districts and county offices.
If a firearm is detected by the ZeroEyes system, instant alerts are sent to the company’s security team, enabling quick and appropriate responses to potential threats. With this advanced technology in place, Geauga County offices can take proactive steps towards ensuring that their facilities are secure and safe for all who enter them.
