K-12 schools are increasingly adopting advanced technologies to enhance campus safety and security. Notable examples include Baltimore County Public Schools and Alexandria City Public Schools, which have implemented high-tech systems for weapons detection. These initiatives reflect a growing trend among educational institutions to prioritize student safety through innovative solutions.
Technologies such as air sensors, smart sensors, and audio/video analytics are transforming how schools manage safety. For instance, HALO's smart sensors utilize AI to detect various threats, while communication systems like Motorola's MOTOTRBO radios facilitate real-time alerts. By integrating these technologies, schools can create a more secure environment for students and staff.
