School Safety
United Defense is developing SwarmSecurity, an innovative product inspired by the natural defense mechanisms of bees. Using advanced AI/ML detection algorithms installed in school cameras, SwarmSecurity identifies active threats. Once a threat is detected, a swarm of drones is deployed to disorient the intruder and prevent them from opening fire. Equipped with small voltage tasers, the drones "sting" the attacker, providing critical time for law enforcement to intervene. SwarmSecurity harnesses the cohesive movement of nature's swarms to enhance school safety and neutralize potential threats effectively.
