ZeroEyes, a provider of visual threat detection and security analytics, has partnered with Samson Security Fire & Facilities to expand the availability of human-verified visual threat detection technology across the United Kingdom.
The companies will demonstrate the technology in Booth F61 at the International Security Expo, taking place September 29–30, 2026, at Olympia London.
Through the partnership, Samson will offer UK organizations access to ZeroEyes' proactive AI weapon detection and intelligent situational awareness technology. The platform is designed to identify visible firearms and knives through existing CCTV infrastructure.
The system applies analytics to live camera feeds and sends potential detections to trained human analysts for verification before issuing an alert to designated security personnel and first responders.
The partnership combines ZeroEyes' threat detection technology with Samson's UK-based security, monitoring, and response capabilities. The companies aim to help organizations add a proactive layer to their existing security programs without requiring replacement of current camera systems.
"Samson has the experience, relationships and operational capabilities needed to bring our technology to organizations throughout the UK. This partnership represents an important step in our international growth and advances our shared goal of helping security teams identify visible threats earlier and respond with actionable intelligence."

Expanding Visual Threat Detection
ZeroEyes' platform builds on its visual firearm-detection technology, which is deployed across the United States and has generated thousands of verified weapon dispatches, including alerts that have contributed to arrests.
Its expanded Analytics Suite includes visual knife detection, intrusion detection, left-behind-object detection, crowd formation, and camera-health monitoring across an organization's existing camera infrastructure.
Initial knife-detection deployments are producing actionable results, helping security teams identify potential threats and intervene sooner. The platform also provides public-safety alerts and does not use facial recognition or behavioral tracking.
ZeroEyes' software can be layered onto existing digital security cameras. When a gun or knife is identified, images are immediately shared with the ZeroEyes Operations Center (ZOC).
The ZOC is a U.S.-based operations center staffed 24/7/365 by specially trained U.S. military and law enforcement veterans.
If the threat is determined to be valid, alerts and actionable intelligence—including a visual description, weapon type, and last known location—are dispatched to law enforcement and local security teams, often within seconds of detection.

Supporting UK Security Preparedness
"UK organizations are looking for practical ways to gain more value from their existing CCTV investments and strengthen their ability to respond to developing threats. By combining ZeroEyes' analytics and human verification with Samson's integrated security and response services, we can provide customers with a more complete and proactive approach to protecting people and property."

The partnership comes as UK organizations prepare for implementation of the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025, commonly known as Martyn's Law.
The legislation establishes preparedness and protective-security requirements for certain public premises and events. While no single technology provides compliance on its own, human-verified threat detection can support a broader, layered approach to security, situational awareness, and emergency response.
