Virtual Ed Link to Enhance SSMS With Physical Security Platform
06 May 2010 - 11:20PM
Marketwired
Virtual Ed Link, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: VRED)
announced today that it will be developing a new Physical Security
Platform for the School Safety Management System (SSMS). It is
anticipated that the new platform would be available to school
districts in the third quarter of 2010 for delivery in the upcoming
school year.
4A International, a leading provider of market research services
in the security field, recently stated that the overall security
technologies' market will reach approximately $70 billion globally,
rising 15% annually. The physical security market potential is
estimated at 15% of this total number, or approximately $12 billion
by 2012.
Physical security covers all the devices, technologies and
personnel for perimeter, external and internal protection. Physical
security includes everything from sensors and cameras to barriers,
lighting and access controls. Efficient use of physical security
technology provides not only increased safety for the students but
can aid school districts in effective use of personnel during the
current fiscal crisis now reaching many school districts.
The SSMS platform will now analyze raw information received from
physical security devices and process the information into
intelligence using the various components of the portal platform.
An example of this technology would be exposing a student carrying
a weapon on school grounds. Video analytics would detect the weapon
and notify the proper personnel and authorities automatically
without operator intervention.
VRED's executive management has had extensive prior experience
with public safety projects for the New York Police Department
(NYPD), the Fire Department of New York (FDNY), the Federal Bureau
of Investigation (FBI) and additional statewide systems for
Florida, New Mexico, Delaware, Kansas, and Wisconsin.
"We look forward to bringing our previous expertise to the
school marketplace and providing schools with state of the art
technology to enhance the security and safety of our children,"
said John Bay, President and CEO.
