The Raptor and ZeroEyes integration partnership enhances school safety through advanced, AI-driven threat detection and automated alerting. ZeroEyes identifies illegally brandished guns and instantly sends images to the ZeroEyes Operation Centers (ZOCs), which are staffed by military and law enforcement veterans 24/7/365 for human verification.
Once these experts verify that a gun has been identified, they dispatch alerts and provide situational awareness and actionable intelligence, including visual description, gun type and last known location of the shooter, to local staff and law enforcement as quickly as 3 to 5 seconds from detection. Alerts are sent to Raptor’s platform, triggering immediate response protocols like lockdowns and evacuations.
Angleton ISD implemented this integration to further strengthen their schools’ safety and security with AI-driven threat detection, automated alerting, and real-time communication.
Manual Alerting Limitations
Manual alerting processes are prone to human error during high-stress scenarios, which can lead to delays in emergency response. Manual alerting also exacerbates dangerous situations as personnel must decide what action to take first: seek shelter or initiate a panic alert.
Delays in Alerting Timeliness
Typical human reaction time coupled with panic and inherent danger of an emergency can delay alerting and significantly impact the effectiveness of emergency response efforts.
Limited Communication Impacting Incident Response
Coordinating and executing an emergency response is challenging without a comprehensive system. Two-way, real-time communication among all stakeholders is essential for managing emergencies efficiently.
Automated Alerting Reduces Reliance on Manual Alerting
By automating the alert process, Raptor and ZeroEyes ease the responsibility for alerting that rests on the shoulders of on-site staff. The integration between Raptor Alert with ZeroEyes’ artificial intelligence ensures that potential threats are identified and alerts are sent out without delay.
“The integration is great. ZeroEyes’ detection of potential threats greatly accelerates our emergency alerting through its integration with Raptor Alert. ZeroEyes uses AI-powered, human-verified technology to identify guns through existing digital cameras, initiating a Raptor Alert within seconds to notify 911 and school staff. It’s seamless, it’s faster than a person, and it’s ensuring everyone can seek shelter immediately.”
Roberto Muñoz, Assistant Superintendent of Student Services at Angleton ISD, TX
Expediting Alerts Through the Power of AI
ZeroEyes’ advanced AI technology analyzes video feeds and identifies potential gun-related threats in real time and integrates seamlessly with Raptor Alert. The integration ensures that precise information—such as the caller’s name, number, and location—is instantly shared with dispatchers and first responders.
By accelerating the transfer of accurate emergency alert data, ZeroEyes and Raptor Alert significantly reduce response times and enhance the overall effectiveness of emergency responses.
Enhancing Coordination with Real-Time Communication and Visual Context
The integration of Raptor Emergency Management with ZeroEyes significantly enhances coordination and communication during emergencies.
Raptor’s two-way, real-time chat features enable staff, public safety, and incident commanders to stay updated and exchange critical information instantly. Additionally, ZeroEyes provides still shots alongside its real-time alerts, offering detailed visual context of the threat.
This combination of real-time chat and visual data enables a more coordinated and effective emergency response, ensuring resources are directed efficiently to mitigate risks.
“Raptor has been instrumental in enabling real-time communication during emergencies. The chat feature allows administrators and first responders to strategize and implement plans effectively. With ZeroEyes, we get real-time snapshots of any gun-related threats detected, which helps us track movements and share critical information instantly. This combined capability has significantly enhanced our safety measures and coordination among district officers and first responders.”
Roberto Muñoz, Assistant Superintendent of Student Services at Angleton ISD, TX
Automated Alerting vs. Manual Alerting
Automated alerting allows staff to focus on seeking shelter and ensuring their safety, rather than being burdened with manually initiating alerts. The improved accuracy also enhances overall efficiency and responsiveness during emergencies.
Timeliness of Alerts
The immediate dissemination of alerts ensures that all necessary parties are informed without delay, significantly reducing response times.
Coordination and Communication
The unified platform ensures that all stakeholders are informed and updated in real time, allowing for strategic resource allocation, coordinated situation response, and minimized spread of false reports.
