ZeroEyes AI gun detection at University of New Haven

ZeroEyes, the creators of the only AI-based gun detection video analytics platform that holds the full US Department of Homeland Security SAFETY Act Designation announced that its proactive gun detection and intelligent situational awareness solution is deployed at the University of New Haven.

This integration marks the first time a Connecticut university has adopted ZeroEyes, enhancing the safety and security measures across the campus and surrounding areas.

University of New Haven

The University of New Haven, located on a suburban campus near New Haven, Connecticut, serves a community of over 10,000 students, faculty, and staff.

Its comprehensive, multilayered safety and security strategy ensures protection 24/7/365 with features such as electronic card access gates, CCTV cameras, emergency phones, and the LiveSafe app, which facilitates real-time communication with the University Police Department that patrols the entire campus. 

Threat identify, assess, and respond

With the deployment of ZeroEyes, the campus's security infrastructure is even better equipped to identify

With the deployment of ZeroEyes, the campus's security infrastructure is even better equipped to identify, assess, and respond to potential gun-related threats.

“The security of our campus and the safety of our students, faculty, staff, and visitors are our paramount priority,” said Adam Brown, chief of the University of New Haven Police Department.

AI-based gun-detection system

“From our first conversations with ZeroEyes, it was clear they could help enrich the safety and security of our community by offering an AI-based gun-detection system that uses the most advanced technology – supported by a specially trained operations center – to identify and analyze the presence of a firearm."

"Testing, implementing, and integrating ZeroEyes into our safety and security systems and protocols has been seamless. ZeroEyes’ expertise in this critical area of public safety provides an important tool that enhances the safety and security of our community.”

Situational awareness software

If a gun is identified, images are instantly shared with the ZOC which is staffed 24/7/365

ZeroEyes’ AI gun detection and intelligent situational awareness software layers onto existing digital security cameras. If a gun is identified, images are instantly shared with the ZeroEyes Operations Centre (ZOC), the industry’s only U.S.-based, fully in-house operation centre, which is staffed 24/7/365 by specially trained U.S. military and law enforcement veterans.

If these experts determine that the threat is valid, they dispatch alerts and actionable intelligence including visual description, gun type, and last known location, to local law enforcement and university security as quickly as 3 to 5 seconds from detection.

Campus safety

“Our collaboration with the University of New Haven underscores their unwavering dedication to campus safety in Connecticut,” said Mike Lahiff, CEO, and co-founder of ZeroEyes.

“By integrating our AI gun detection solution, the university is taking a significant step forward in safeguarding its students, faculty, and staff. We are honored to support their mission to create a secure educational environment.”
