Omnilert was used by Antioch High School, which at the beginning of the month experienced a fatal shooting. However, the event occurred from the system’s field of view. “
Antioch High School was the last deadly shooting in Tennessee Nashville. As a result of the tragedy, many people question the efficiency of omniler, the artificial intelligence-driven weapon sensing system used at school. Now company CEO Dave Fraser talks about the benefits and limits of AI security systems.
“The operation of our system is to observe video cameras, and if you think so, it basically plays the role of a person,” Fraser told Fox Business. “But in order to work, you need to be able to see a weapon in the same way as you can see the weapon.”
Fraser explained that, unlike conventional observation systems, often used after an event, used as a pre -omnilert system, along with other mechanisms.

“The visual approach, which is quite new, offers some interesting benefits when layered with other technologies,” Fraser said.
When he spoke specifically about the Nashville tragedy, Fraser said that the shooting was “left out of the field of vision”, “made it impossible” for the Omniler to view the weapon and to detect the threat.
In February 2023, the Metro Nashville Public Schools (MNPS) body will obtain a $ 1 million contract with the AI weapon sensing system, Omnilert, which ends on November 30, 2025, according to WKRN Local Outlet.
Fraser told Fox Business that omnilert systems were designed to work quickly, just like in the case of emergency situations, “the essence of time.”
“If you see a weapon, it usually detects it within less than a second, and at this point, potential perception data is actually sent to the person for control.”

Once the threat has been checked, the omnilert system can automatically activate other security devices such as alerts or lock doors. However, Fraser admits that no system is perfect and that in an ideal world, Omniler is combined with other security measures.
The “lower row,” says Fraser, the use of “multilayer protection”.
The Omnilert website determines a possible layered approach to school security. The list includes staff training, on-site safety, monitoring cameras, metal detectors and many other AI-based system.
According to Omnilert’s annual armed violence reportwhich was released earlier this month before the Antioch high school shooting, in 2024 it was the second highest number of K-12 school shooting events since 1966.

After the shooting, Fran Bush, former Metro Nashville Public Schools board member, said New York Post that “he knew this day was going to happen”.
“I knew it would happen just because it was like a free open door, everyone would come in,” Bush added. He also said that he had failed the school district to bring in metal detectors.
