Schools and universities face unique security challenges, often spanning large, multi-building campuses that include classrooms, sports fields, and car parks. The daily influx of students and visitors makes it difficult to ensure comprehensive security coverage.

Traditional security measures, such as CCTV and security personnel, present several limitations:

• CCTV cameras can document incidents but cannot stop them from happening in real time.

• Security guards, while effective to a degree, can only cover limited areas and are subject to human limitations such as fatigue or distraction.

• Open spaces, like playgrounds, sports ovals, and outdoor common areas, are particularly challenging to secure.
