“Coram detected a firearm on campus and sent me a short video clip immediately. I checked within seconds and saw it was an officer, but the system worked exactly as it should.”, Dr. Ercan Aydogdu, Executive Director, Coral Academy of Science
Before Coram (Challenge)
Coral Academy’s leadership wanted a proactive, research-driven approach to school safety, and one that could help detect threats early, verify them quickly, and keep all campuses coordinated.
Their existing camera setup offered basic coverage but lacked intelligent alerting, integrated detection, and real-time coordination tools. Previous systems tested by the team had produced unreliable results, with frequent false alerts and limited accuracy.
“We tried another company’s system, but it gave too many false alarms. Even perfume in a restroom triggered it. We needed something accurate and dependable.”
The Switch to Coram
After evaluating several vendors, the operations and IT teams selected Coram for its accuracy, advanced firearm detection, and seamless multi-campus management.
“Our team checked several options and recommended Coram for safety. The AI and alerting features stood out.” Once deployed, the system immediately demonstrated its value: “When a police officer stepped onto campus, I received a firearm alert, with a short video clip. The principal and safety officer received it, too. We could instantly verify it was an officer’s holster. That reassurance matters.”

Recommendation
Dr. Aydogdu views Coram as a vital layer in the academy’s safety strategy:
“Coram has embedded AI technology very well. If a student ever goes missing, we can trace where they were last seen – which door, which exit. It’s about safety for our students and our staff. That’s why I strongly recommend it.”
