PHILADELPHIA — ZeroEyes and Aegix Global in collaboration have managed to successfully deploy ZeroEyes’ AI gun detection and situational awareness software in more than 200 Utah schools.
ZeroEyes’ software has been integrated into the Aegix AIM active incident management platform since spring 2023. Schools and districts that have deployed the combined solution include American Leadership Academy, American Preparatory Academy, and the school districts of Cache County, Carbon, Grand, Juab, Layton City, North Summit, South Summit, Provo, Wasatch, and Waterford School Districts, among others.
The Aegix AIM (Active Incident Management) platform allows individuals in schools, businesses, and other organizations to notify first responders and colleagues about a crisis with the touch of a button. In a worst-case scenario, such as an active shooter, teachers simply push a button in the app to let administrators and first responders know if they are “safe” or “unsafe.” Aegix AIM can be operated from a desktop, laptop or smartphone.
“Incorporating ZeroEyes into our AIM solution to mitigate gun-related violence in Utah schools has provided an additional layer of protection for students and staff statewide,” said Chet Linton, CEO of Aegix. “We look forward to the continued success of our partnership.”
“Amidst the national rise in gun violence, schools shouldn't have to compromise on safety due to financial constraints,” said Mike Lahiff, CEO of ZeroEyes. “We are extremely proud of our partnership with Aegix, which has enabled schools throughout Utah to afford our life-saving gun detection and situational awareness solution.
