ZeroEyes, the creators of the only AI-based gun detection video analytics platform that holds the US Department of Homeland Security SAFETY Act Designation announced that its proactive AI gun detection and intelligent situational awareness platform has been selected by Woodbine Community School District in Woodbine, Iowa, to protect students, faculty, and staff from individuals attempting to bring illegal guns onto the campus.
U.S. school shooting rates continue to surge.
Enhancing school safety
Woodbine Community School District, a rural pre-K-12 public school district that operates two schools and serves 500+ students, adopted ZeroEyes to address these growing safety concerns.
“We are dedicated to enhancing school safety so that our teachers can focus on education and students can concentrate on learning,” said Justin Wagner, superintendent, of Woodbine Community Schools.
