SEPTA plans to test an artificial-intelligence surveillance program that will detect guns within seconds of being brandished anywhere along the transit system’s sprawling network.
The program will layer its software over SEPTA’s existing security cameras and the artificial intelligence will identify guns and alert local law enforcement within three to five seconds of detection, Green said. Former military and law enforcement specialists will be monitoring and verify every detection from ZeroEyes’ operations center, she said.
“SEPTA is evaluating this new technology as part of the solution to gun violence. It can act as an early warning system to speed up response times from police officers. ZeroEyes is another tool that SEPTA can use to keep its riders and employees safe,” said Green. If the pilot period is successful, SEPTA will consider rolling ZeroEyes out to other parts of the transit system, said Green. Currently, SEPTA has more than 30,000 cameras throughout the system.
