PEORIA (Heart of Illinois ABC) - There will be a new eye in the sky this year at Peoria public schools. Tuesday night, the school board approved a new system designed to protect students, without being noticed. It's called'Intellisee,' an artificial intelligence that learns over time with the goal of protecting kids as they go about their day at school. It then alerts the appropriate staff to handle whatever problem it detects. If it's a puddle, a custodian will receive a message to clean it up.

Security has risen to the top of the priority list for many managers in institutional and commercial facilities. Nowhere is the issue more important that in K-12 schools, given the growing threat that mass shooters present to students, staff and faculty. School district officials have revisited every conceivable angle of the issue as it relates to facilities, from building design to access control. Now some managers are taking a closer look at emerging technology to give them an edge. Artificial intelligence (AI) is helping to change security cameras in school districts from passive to active observers, according to VOA News. They can identify people, suspicious behavior and guns and gather large amounts of information.

With the wave of school shootings that have swept the U.S. in recent years, concerns about physical security and safety have overwhelmed parents, teachers and school administrators alike. Facial recognition technology, which would allow schools and law enforcement to quickly identify who is entering their schools and when could give school districts a powerful means to make schools even safer. Last month, RealNetworks, the streaming media company that garnered attention in the '90s and early 2000s for developing the first audio streaming solution, announced it would offer its facial recognition software, SAFR, for free to over 100,000 school districts. "School safety has become one of the top national issues in the United States in 2018," said Rob Glaser, chairman and CEO of RealNetworks in a press release. "We are proud to give our leading-edge SAFR for K-12 technology solution to every elementary, middle, and high school in America and Canada. We hope this will help make schools safer."
