housing youth in a Medium/High security setting. The contract, one
in collaboration with one of VUANCE's integrator partners,

intercoms are announced to the operators via text-to-speech
functions. Cameras are automatically switched based on operator
activity to provide a seamless interface. "VUANCE continues to
