Can you tell us about Sentry ERS?
IPVideo Corporation has made it a mission to help society respond to emergency situations with the introduction of its Sentry ERS Lockdown and Emergency Response System, purpose-built for schools and campus environments.
With the simple push of the lockdown button on the base unit, the entire school lockdown protocol is initiated. This includes doors locking, PA announcements and activation of strobe lights throughout a facility.
Additionally, audible lockdown messages are played from the unit, location beacons are provided, police dispatch is notified, push notifications are sent out to security, administration, etc. and live audio and video communications are automatically established with first responders to assess and address the critical situation.
Each Sentry ERS unit comes with a dedicated mobile communication device for those in distress to broadcast a secondary video stream and communicate with first responders live, providing all the latest real-time information at the scene.
What other solutions does IPVideo Corporation provide to its customers?
Over the years, HALO has become known for its broad range of applications such as gunshot detection, keyword alerting, air quality monitoring, vaping, smoking, etc. and continues to be known in the industry as an IoT Smart Sensor going beyond just vaping.
We also have a cost-effective passive weapons and theft detection system called ViewScan which is safe for anyone to pass through and take a video snapshot of the ferrous metal object on the person.
