Utah funds AI gun detection add-on for in-school cameras

The Utah State Board of Education has approved a $3 million contract with Utah-based AEGIX Global that will let K-12 schools in the state apply for funding for AI gun detection software from ZeroEyes for up to four cameras per school. The software will work with the schools' existing camera systems, and notifies police when the detection of a firearm is verified at the ZeroEyes control centre. The legislature will consider additional funding if the early implementation is successful. The contract restricts releases of the data to aggregated and redacted forms, and bans its use for advertising.
