How AI gun detection can help ensure safety and security
Our AI Gun Detection System is the first to pair video and audio analytics to detect guns and gunshots in various locations.
Our award-winning Gun Detection System is designed to:
- Detect firearms and alert personnel for verification
- Detect and classify gunshots while estimating the sound’s origins
- Provide high-quality video for forensics to assist law enforcement and first responders in emergencies
- Assist security personnel in ensuring the safety of employees and visitors
Take your security to the next level with visual and audio AI
When someone brandishing a gun approaches a location or business, our AI Gun Detection System is designed to promptly alert security teams who can verify the gun and take proactive measures. If a gun is not visually detected, audio AI, the second layer, is designed to detect and classify gunshots while estimating the direction from which the sound originates.
Designed to be nearly invisible, our AI Gun Detection System offers a discreet alternative to traditional metal detectors. Its unobtrusive nature ensures a smooth daily flow for employees and visitors in workplaces, schools, and government buildings, fostering a welcoming atmosphere.
The Gun Detection System can operate independently, but it is also compatible with other systems like video, access control, and public address. These integration paths enable additional responses like human verification, locking doors, initiating automated public address and two-way radio announcements, and dictating smart lockdown and evacuation protocols. This capability may enable quick and appropriate responses, such as executing access control measures, including automatically locking doors to prevent entry. And since the system’s visual gun detection and audio gunshot detection layers are camera-based, security staff can also rely on high-quality video footage for forensics supporting first responders.
Minimize false alarms with AI alarm verification
Minimizing false alarms is a crucial concern of school security professionals. Our cloud-based AI alarm verification service adds a second pair of eyes to verify questionable alerts, operating like instant replay technology in football games. Acting like a referee, the service works continuously, verifying every alarm on the edge. It is designed to confirm potential threats and rescind or escalate alarms quickly, driving false alarms to near zero. As an add-on service, it pairs seamlessly with our Gun Detection System, creating a hybrid solution unlike other systems requiring a cloud connection. Rest assured, unverified camera alarms may automatically escalate to our edge verification system if a network connection is unavailable. Available now with Milestone XProtect®.
Early, fast detection, and notifications
- Our gun detection technology is designed to reduce reaction time to support rapid mobilization of security teams and emergency response plans before a shot is fired inside the field of view and recognize gunshots outside the field of view.
Frictionless solution
- Designed to be nearly invisible as opposed to metal detectors, the Gun Detection System may help ensure a smooth daily flow for employees and visitors without interruptions and provide a welcoming environment.
Privacy protected
- No audio or video data needs to be recorded or leave the security camera, as AI processing is carried out on-edge, not in the cloud, ensuring the privacy of people.
Cost-effective
- Our system works round the clock for maximum cost and operational efficiency, providing complete coverage without blind spots. Security teams can rely on high-quality video footage for forensics supporting first responders.
