As gun violence in the U.S. continues to steadily increase, organizations and institutions are seeking new ways to protect their students, patients, visitors, customers, faculty, clinicians and staff members. Video surveillance systems are increasingly being deployed to address the challenges associated with firearm incidents, although monitoring can be difficult, unreliable and expensive.
Omnilert, the innovation leader and most trusted partner in emergency communications, is introducing the industry’s first visual gun detection solution. Powered by artificial intelligence (AI), Omnilert Gun Detect uses existing video surveillance systems to reliably and rapidly recognize firearms and immediately trigger multi-channel alerts and automated pre-defined safety protocols. The combination of these rich capabilities provides campus safety teams with the broadest array of solutions, spanning prevention, notification, engagement and management.
Gun Detect offers always-on monitoring with unparalleled reliability at a price point affordable to organizations of all sizes and complexities. Existing gunshot detection technologies only work after incidents have escalated and provide vague details on the approximate location of the sound. In comparison, Gun Detect gives emergency response teams advance warning before shots are fired and delivers precise information on the location and visuals of the potential shooter.
