There are many technologies available to help address school and campus security. For the individual school or district, sorting through these diverse products to keep students safe might be overwhelming.

We make it easier for you to find the best security technology for schools. At i-PRO, our mission is to simplify campus security and solve your most pressing concerns. We can deliver a full end-to-end security system for schools that is highly customizable, scalable and easy to use, all while providing one of the best total cost of ownership propositions in the industry.

Here are some of the products and features we offer to help you deploy the best security system for your school.

Campus security technology to manage video

Video management for schools should be easy. Capture, manage and archive video from every surveillance camera across your facility or campus with Video Insight from i-PRO. This easy-to-use platform lets you manage your full security system from one simple user interface, improving overall site awareness.

Protect your current investment with Video Insight. Supporting more than 4000 cameras from over 150 different manufacturers, we have you covered. And with easy upgrades and a simple licensing structure, your TCO (total cost of ownership) is one of the best on the market.

More impressive, Video Insight is a full featured integrated surveillance and access control solution integrating the powerful MonitorCast Access Control platform. Read on for more details…

Protecting your school’s perimeter

Your campus or school needs an enterprise-level access control system to keep unauthorized individuals from entering the premises. With MonitorCast from i-PRO, you can control doors, manage users, set schedules and more. Instantly lock down your entire site in the event of an emergency. Configure and control MonitorCast fully through the Video Insight interface or use it as a standalone application.

Managing your transportation fleet

Students often begin and end their school day riding on one of your fleet vehicles. To help make that a safe and secure journey, we offer a transportation recorder and software plug-in which integrates with your Video Insight monitoring solution. Recorded video footage is automatically transferred via wi-fi when each bus arrives at the garage.

You decide which actions will trigger recording – for example, when the bus door opens or closes, or if a panic button is pressed. The video includes location data to better pinpoint incidents and provide additional insight.

Making school buses a part of your security planning helps protect the school from liability while supporting security and law enforcement objectives.

Analytics for site awareness

Video surveillance is a powerful tool for identifying individuals and reviewing incidents. Powerful analytics technology gives video the ability to identify incidents in progress – or the potential for an incident before it takes place – helping you to prevent harm and loss of life.

Many of our i-PRO cameras include analytics technologies at no additional cost. For example, Intelligent Video Motion Detection (i-VMD) can detect and respond to:

• Scene change
• Intruder
• Loitering
• Direction
• Line cross
• Object left behind

i-PRO cameras meet these challenges and more, with an industry-leading 5-year advance replacement warranty.

Facial recognition technology fuels security

Within the Video Insight and MonitorCast platforms is a powerful Rules Engine. This enables you to customize the automatic responses to analytics-driven events. For example, intruder detection can trigger our powerful Facial Recognition analytics. If the intruder is identified as a dangerous individual, Video Insight can instantly notify selected authorities automatically and send a photo or video clip or push a live camera feed to their client machine. Audio alerts and door locks can also be enabled to further contain any potential for harm.

Prevent vaping on school grounds

Educators are now dealing with the challenge of students using vape pens on campus or on school grounds. Traditional smoke detectors are not engineered to identify these devices.

Smart sensor technology can solve this problem. The HALO sensor can detect vape, smoke, THC and sound abnormalities like shouting. Fully integrated with the Video Insight Security Management System, it will analyze the immediate environment in areas a camera cannot be placed and notify you when anomalies are detected.

Capture evidence on video

When there is an incident on school grounds, it is a critical and stressful time for first responders. In addition to their mitigating response, they are responsible for providing evidence that can be used for identification, arrest and in a criminal trial. The i-PRO Arbitrator Body-Worn Camera is the most reliable way to capture video and audio evidence when on the move, or when fixed cameras can’t cover the area properly due to infrastructure limitations.

Offering seamless integration with i-PRO’s Video Insight Video Management Software platform, Arbitrator records in 1080P/720P/360P and together with our fixed-surveillance cameras, Arbitrator delivers schools and campuses a unified recording platform.
