“Keeping our students and staff safe is a responsibility we take seriously every day,” said Dr. Nathaniel Cunningham, Jr., Superintendent of Thornton Township High School District 205. “Adding ZeroEyes strengthens our layered approach to campus safety by helping us quickly detect and verify a visibly brandished weapon and alert the right people so we can act fast.” 

ZeroEyes' AI gun detection and situational awareness software layers onto existing digital security cameras. If a gun is identified, images are instantly shared with the ZeroEyes Operations Center (ZOC), which is staffed 24/7/365 by specially trained U.S. military and law enforcement veterans. If these experts determine the threat is valid, they dispatch alerts and actionable intelligence — including visual description, gun type, and last known location — to law enforcement and school security teams, often in a matter of seconds from the moment a gun is detected.

“We’re proud to support District 205 in strengthening their already comprehensive approach to campus safety,” said Mike Lahiff, co-founder and CEO of ZeroEyes. “Every second matters in an active threat situation, and our technology is designed to deliver rapid, actionable intelligence that helps schools and law enforcement respond faster and more effectively.”
