Have to beat a major competitor who have backing of fed govtA group of ex-soldiers have produced, using AI, a software program that uses cameras throughout the school to identify and track active shooters. Yes, it is after the fact but getting strong backing by the government. It can communicate in real time with police to show where the shooter is and their activities. Police can communicate with each other and staff to evacuate parts of buildings where active shooter is not present. Schools, which have limited budgets, will have to decide what type of system they want.
So PAT will have to somehow prove results to get their type of system to stop the incident before it starts. If you are interested in this company, they were highlighted on 60 Minutes two weeks ago. The company is also U.S. based so I am not sure if the "Buy American" policy from Biden will have any traction with this type of program.
