Thematic Workshop Sessions
In correctional facilities, the goal is not only to record incidents; it is to detect risks proactively, with time left for intervention, while safeguarding the wellbeing of staff and residents. In this session, we will examine how AI-enabled video analytics learns the normal flow and flags meaningful deviations: aggression and fight detection, falls, people counting and unusual increases in people/vehicle counts in specific areas, presence in prohibited/sensitive zones, perimeter breaches, and intrusions—all detected in real time and surfaced on the operator’s screen. We will also show how rules that reduce false alarms are layered by risk profile and shift conditions, and how this lowers alarm fatigue and makes it easier for teams to focus on de-escalation and care-oriented response, using practical examples.
