Way too many potential points of failure to make this worth it.

1) Every JROTC program that regularly participates in drill competitions uses either demilitarized or replica rifles for Armed Drill Teams, Color Guard, Armed Inspection Teams, etc. This tech will cause a lot of headaches and complacency fairly quickly between the JROTC instructors, any semblance of school security, and local LE.

2) Based on what I watched nothing can be done for someone who's hiding the gun in question effectively.

3) What is stopping the opsys from triggering over a cop who showed up and openly carrying his/her sidearm?

4) Cop still has to drive to school to respond to potential shooter. Way too much time being given to the shooter.

There's more than that, but I'm not looking to write a novel here, and I imagine others will chime in.

Most of your concerns are actually addressed by the system, BUT the way they are addressed makes their "under 3 seconds" claim a complete lie. Once the AI thinks it saw a gun, it alerts a human operator who looks at it on the video screen and decides whether or not to notify authorities. Their "under 3 seconds" is a farce.
