New Jersey Schools Integrate Leading Proactive Solution
Sayreville Borough School District has deployed ZeroEyes AI gun detection and intelligent situational awareness technology to help protect students, faculty, and staff from gun-related violence across its schools in New Jersey.
The deployment strengthens the district’s proactive security strategy by integrating advanced weapons detection analytics with emergency communication and incident response systems.
District Expands Proactive Security Measures
Located in Middlesex County, the district serves approximately 6,500 students and employs around 750 staff members across 10 buildings, including elementary schools, a middle school, a high school, preschools, and a specialized 18–21 educational program.
The district said the deployment reflects its commitment to staying ahead of evolving security threats while maintaining a safe learning environment.
Integrated Real-Time Threat Detection
ZeroEyes’ AI gun detection platform will integrate with Singlewire’s InformaCast incident management software, enabling automated emergency alerts when a firearm threat is detected.
The integrated system allows real-time gun detection alerts to trigger customized notifications across multiple communication devices, helping improve emergency coordination and response times.
According to Dr. Richard Labbe, superintendent of Sayreville Borough School District:
“By integrating advanced technology, such as ZeroEyes, into our broader security framework, we are strengthening our ability to identify potential threats early and act quickly, helping us move from awareness to action in a matter of moments.”
AI Detection With Human Verification
ZeroEyes technology works by layering AI analytics onto existing digital security cameras. When a visible firearm is detected, images are immediately transmitted to the company’s ZeroEyes Operations Center (ZOC), which operates 24/7 and is staffed by trained military and law enforcement veterans.
If the threat is verified, alerts containing actionable intelligence — including weapon type, suspect description, and last known location — are sent to school security personnel and law enforcement within as little as 3 to 5 seconds.
Mike Lahiff, co-founder and CEO of ZeroEyes, said:
“Sayreville Borough School District’s leadership has demonstrated a strong commitment to creating a safe and secure learning environment. We’re proud to support their efforts by turning existing security infrastructure into a source of timely, reliable insight that supports faster, more confident action.”
ZeroEyes provides AI-powered weapons detection, real-time threat geolocation, and intelligent situational awareness tools designed to enhance preparedness and accelerate emergency response. The platform detects visibly brandished weapons, including firearms and knives, and delivers actionable alerts to security teams and law enforcement in seconds.
