By adopting AI and FoRI, stadium security teams enhance the safety of attendees, increase the confidence of event organizers, and ensure that the spotlight remains where it ought to be, on the event.
Stadiums bring together people from all walks of life to enjoy sporting events, concerts, and other large gatherings. However, ensuring the safety of tens of thousands of attendees in such a vast and dynamic environment poses complex and evolving challenges. The task of securing these arenas demands a sophisticated, multi-layered security strategy equipped with the latest technological advances. Pioneering platforms equipped with artificial intelligence (AI) and Fiber Optic Ring Interferometer (FoRI) systems are poised to drastically enhance how we protect stadiums and large public spaces.
The top challenges for stadium security teams
One of the most obvious but pressing challenges in securing a venue like a stadium is the facility’s sheer scale. These massive buildings, complete with their parking garages, parking lots, and subterranean corridors, accommodate crowd capacities ranging from tens of thousands to over a hundred thousand. Their designs incorporate numerous entry points, seating sections, and hidden areas, all of which require constant surveillance.
