Hempfield Area School District will pilot an AI-powered weapon detection system called Wi-AI, developed by CurvePoint in collaboration with Carnegie Mellon University, starting January 2026. The system uses Wi-Fi signals to identify concealed weapons and has shown 95% accuracy in lab tests. The pilot program will involve 15 school districts, with an annual monitoring fee of $60,000 for the first three years, as CurvePoint aims to enhance its capabilities to detect various types of weapons.
