Conroe, TX – January 8, 2025 — Albany City School District (New York State) has announced the installation of advanced LINEV Systems BV 5030 backpack scanners, equipped with A-EYE® artificial intelligence and Vape Detection, as part of its ongoing commitment to creating a safer learning environment for students and staff.
The BV 5030 systems represent a new era of intelligent security screening for educational campuses. Powered by A-EYE®, LINEV’s proprietary AI-driven image analysis platform, the scanners automatically detect weapons, contraband, and prohibited items with high accuracy while significantly reducing operator workload and fatigue.
The deployment of BV 5030 scanners aligns with Albany City School District’s broader security strategy, which prioritizes preventative measures and innovative screening technology over reactive solutions. By integrating AI-assisted X-ray screening into daily operations, the district enhances campus safety without disrupting the student experience.
“LINEV weapons detection systems give school security teams a critical edge,” said Paul Rivello, Director of Sales at LINEV Systems US. “By combining intelligent automation with proven imaging technology, the BV 5030 helps schools maintain a safe atmosphere while ensuring students’ privacy and dignity.”
The BV 5030’s compact footprint and reliable performance make it particularly well suited for school environments, where large volumes of backpacks and bags must be screened efficiently. Featuring a user-friendly interface and automatic threat alerting, the system supports smooth, secure, and positive campus flow.
Albany City School District joins neighboring Schenectady City School District in adopting LINEV Systems’ advanced weapons detection technology. The scanners were implemented on December 10, reinforcing a regional commitment to proactive school security.
