Since its founding in August 2024, TruePath Vision has focused on protecting vulnerable populations in high-traffic environments. Backed by the Eagle Freedom Fund, a counter-trafficking investment arm of Eagle Venture Fund ( https://www.eagleventurefund.com) and co-founded by the Eagle Venture Studio ( https://eagleventurestudio.com), the company has deployed computer vision technology across hospitality and event spaces nationwide. The platform builds on TruePath’s existing real-time object detection and pattern recognition capabilities, delivering continuous situational awareness using customers’ existing camera infrastructure rather than proprietary hardware or costly retrofits.

The newly released weapon detection capability extends this foundation by identifying visible firearms, knives, and other weapons, as well as select threat-related behaviors, in real time. TruePath’s software integrates directly with standard IP-based camera systems already in place across most venues, enabling rapid deployment without disrupting operations or requiring significant upfront investment.

“Our mission has always been grounded in protecting people who are most at risk,” said Jason Williamson, CEO of TruePath Vision. “By working with the camera systems venues already have, we remove one of the biggest barriers to adoption—cost. Weapon detection allows organizations to strengthen safety without committing to major capital projects or hardware overhauls.”
Article content
TruePath’s weapon detection runs on the same scalable architecture as its existing platform, delivering alerts to security teams through established monitoring workflows or mobile devices. The AI models are trained to prioritize accuracy while minimizing false positives and can be configured to recognize additional objects or environment-specific risks, such as unattended bags or restricted-area access.

As public venues continue to evaluate layered security approaches, TruePath Vision positions its platform as a single, extensible safety system—designed to enhance situational awareness while preserving guest experience, operational efficiency, and budget flexibility.
