Databuoy Corporation, a gunshot localisation and real-time emergency alert intelligence system, and the Philadelphia Police Department announced that SHOTPOINT, Databuoy’s life-saving gunshot localisation and detection system, has been selected by the Department for a pilot programme to help to reduce gun violence throughout the city.
With gun violence on the rise, officials sought a solution that could accurately detect a gunshot and localise where it came from, to prosecute more offenders and hopefully lessen the number of incidents. When public safety is at risk, having real-time systems that seamlessly communicate vital information is key for first responders.
