The campaign launches at CES 2024 and will give
the tools to individuals to #TakeAction to promote a safer
environment with gunshot detection
Shooter Detection Systems (SDS), an Alarm.com (NASDAQ: ALRM)
company and provider of the world’s leading gunshot detection
solutions, will introduce a campaign at CES 2024 to empower
individuals to make their schools, workplaces, and communities
safer by employing lifesaving gunshot detection technology.
In an active shooter situation, gunshot detection is highly
effective at mitigating injury and loss of life but is often
overlooked by federal funding sources that traditionally support a
wide range of preventative gun violence measures. The
#TakeAction initiative aims to educate individuals about
gunshot detection’s crucial role in maintaining safe and secure
spaces, as well as provide specific tools for consumers to advocate
for gunshot detection to their school, government, and workplace
leaders.
“An average of one death can occur every 10 seconds during an
active shooter event. So when a shooting starts, reducing the time
it takes for authorities to get to the shooter is the most vital
dimension,” said Stephen Carney, President, Shooter Detection
Systems. “With gunshot detection technology, responders can know
immediately that a gun has been fired and in what area of the
building the shot occurred.” *
The campaign is also designed to provide people with the
resources to personally lobby their place of business or child’s
school to deploy gunshot detection technology to create a safer
environment that can quickly alert law enforcement in the event of
an active shooter incident.
SDS gunshot technology enables the communication of critical
incident details within 10 seconds to 911 to alert law enforcement
as well as to individuals at the scene, using ResponderLink, a
software-embedded integration with SDS sister company Noonlight.
SDS software alerts are intercepted by trained safety agents at
Noonlight who provide a live URL dashboard of incident information
to the 911 operator, including the push of continuous incident
information such as where the latest shots were fired.
By combining purpose-built acoustic and infrared sensors with
proprietary detection algorithms, SDS’ Active Shooter Intelligence
accurately detects, verifies, and validates a gunshot with 99.9%
accuracy, and virtually zero false alarms.
SDS will be participating in a pair of media events at CES. The
first event is CES Unveiled, which will be held on Sunday, January
7th from 5 to 8:30 p.m. at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center. The
second event is Pepcom, which will take place on Monday, January
8th from 7 to 10:30 p.m. at The Mirage.
