IREX is exhibiting at JAILCON26 Southern in Chattanooga, Tennessee, October 13–15, 2026, at Booth 77, with prompt-defined video detection for correctional facilities.

[CHATTANOOGA, TN – October 13, 2026] – IREX, a global leader in ethical AI and video intelligence, is exhibiting at JAILCON26 Southern in Chattanooga, Tennessee, October 13 to 15, 2026. The IREX team will be at Booth 77 to meet correctional professionals and discuss how AI video analytics fits a jail’s existing camera coverage, infrastructure, and day-to-day operations.

Correctional facilities face a familiar reality: continuous activity, limited staff, and critical moments that happen between scheduled security rounds. Consider a simple scenario. A person is lying on the floor, and the next scheduled round has not started yet.

With StreamVLM™, IREX’s new prompt-defined detection engine, shipping in beta on selected instances, an operator can describe that condition in plain English, for example “Detect a person lying on the ground.” IREX then checks live video from the selected cameras for the defined condition and generates an alert for staff review. The officer checks the video, assesses the situation, and follows the facility’s procedures. Operators can define a new detection scenario with a prompt, without collecting a new dataset or training a separate model.

What IREX Will Discuss at Booth 77

  1. Prompt-defined detection with StreamVLM. Describe a condition in plain language and turn it into a live detector for staff review, without a new dataset or model training.
  2. Working with the cameras you already have. A facility’s camera network is a starting point. IREX connects to compatible existing cameras to bring video search, event review, and activity logs into one platform, with no rip-and-replace program.
  3. Accountability by design. Role-based access, Case ID for high-risk actions, and auditable logs, so activity in the system is transparent and reviewable.
  4. Fit for jail operations. A practical conversation about how this maps to a facility’s camera coverage, infrastructure, and daily workflows.
