Case Study: Cooke School enhances campus security with Coram AI video surveillance

Enhancing School Security at Cooke School with Video-Based Security System

The Cooke School and Institute, a school in East Harlem serving children and adults with special needs, faced challenges with its unreliable and glitchy security camera system. To address this, the school's Director of Technology sought a more effective solution that could integrate with their existing infrastructure without requiring a significant new investment or extensive staff retraining. They turned to vendor Coram for its AI-powered video-based security system.

By implementing Coram's system, the school gained real-time threat detection, remote mobile access, and seamless integration with its current cameras. The results were immediate; shortly after installation, the system was used to quickly identify intruders during two break-ins, providing clear footage to the police. The solution enhanced security measures, improved operational efficiency, and provided effective, engineer-staffed support, making a significant difference for the school community.
