"We formed Zeronow with the goal of creating an alliance that would generate new ideas and innovation to stop the relentless assaults, both, physical and cyber, on K-12 schools and colleges and universities,” said Ara Bagdasarian, CEO and Co-Founder of Zeronow. “Viisights is pushing real-time video analytics with behavioural capabilities to the next level, which is a great addition to our knowledge base.”

Viisights specialises in cutting-edge behavioural video analytics, enabling the automatic detection of critical events within the campus environment. Most notably, Viisights offers schools enhanced “person holding a weapon” detection, capable of both identifying individuals carrying a weapon and automatically initiating a lockdown in the event weapons are detected. Additional analytic capabilities include violence prediction and recognition, suspicious activity monitoring, fire and smoke detection, perimeter protection, and tailgating detection. These capabilities seamlessly integrate with existing video management and access control systems, ensuring a comprehensive and proactive approach to safety.

“Behavioural recognition systems give us real-time video intelligence,” said Asaf Birenzvieg, CEO and Co-Founder at Viisights. “When dealing with incidents involving active shooters, bullying, fighting, vandalism and antisocial behaviour, intelligent real-time behavioural recognition video goes far in safeguarding the learning environment.”

The partnership between Viisights and Zeronow is a testament to their shared commitment to creating a safer and more secure educational environment for students, faculty, and staff. Together, they aim to transform campus safety by leveraging the power of cutting-edge technology and behavioural analytics.
