VIVOTEK’s AI enhancing campus safety

SAN JOSE, Calif. — In recent years, campus safety and student mental health have drawn growing attention.

Government data in Taiwan show a rise in emotional and stress-related issues among students aged 15–24. Unauthorized attempts to enter campuses still occur, unsettling students and staff. Strengthening security management and proactive alerting has therefore become a priority for schools.

To address risks such as expansive campuses, multiple entry points, blind spots, and potential intrusions, VIVOTEK, a global security solution provider, has been promoting its AI-driven education security solutions, designed to proactively detect risks and safeguard school environments.

As AI video analytics, edge computing, and cloud management platforms mature, security systems are evolving beyond passive video playback into an era of real-time detection and proactive response. In education settings, AI can automatically detect intrusions into restricted zones and trigger instant alerts, enabling security personnel to make swift and informed decisions.

Recently, VIVOTEK deployed a comprehensive education security solutions at a renowned national university in Taiwan, installing hundreds of AI Bullet and Fixed Dome cameras across entrances, rooftops, classrooms, corridors, walls, elevators, and parking areas. Integrated with the VAST Security Station (VSS) Pro platform, the system delivers:

• Proactive prevention: AI virtual fence defines restricted zones, detects loitering, notifies the security center, triggers on-site audio alerts, and coordinates real-time response.
• Efficient investigations: Broad coverage flags abandoned objects, while AI deep search traces intruders or vehicles in the shortest time using attributes (e.g., clothing color, backpack, vehicle type) to quickly assemble event timelines.

With comprehensive, AI-enabled coverage, schools can monitor in real time and avert risks, fostering safe, welcoming, and sustainable learning environment. Beyond Taiwan, VIVOTEK’s education security solutions are also used in the United States, Belgium, and Indonesia, tailored to local needs to build a global network of smart, sustainable campuses.
