While it’s impossible to notice these chemical compounds with the naked eye, they can be detected and measured using sensor-based devices.
Using sensors for measuring levels of TVOCs, PM2.5 and a range of other environmental changes, administrators can begin to detect when vaping occurs and have data to associate with the incident to take preventative action.
At Verkada, we’ve developed our Environmental Sensor lineup to detect meaningful changes across your organization instantly. With Verkada’s Environmental Sensors, schools can leverage sensor-based data to monitor vaping without being present while still understanding what occurred and what next steps need to be taken.
How it Works
As vaping occurs, users can see spikes in Verkada’s vape detector, which measures against a range of different onboard sensors to identify the likelihood of vaping or smoking occurring on a scale of 1 to 100.
Administrators can set custom thresholds to receive real-time alerts via SMS and email. When detected, an alert can also be sent to pre-selected faculty members and on-campus security, allowing teams to respond quickly.
All sensor data is accessible from Verkada’s Command platform and is put against a timeline to give administrators a complete view of when these events took place. Additionally, administrators can pair a Verkada camera with any sensor, providing a layer of visual evidence to see exactly what happened.
