SAN FRANCISCO, CA – June 28, 2024 – Spot AI, a pioneer in AI-powered camera systems, has announced an integration with Omnilert, a leader in active shooter solutions. This collaboration enables Spot AI customers to leverage Omnilert Gun Detect’s AI-driven visual gun detection capabilities, offering continuous 24/7 monitoring and rapid response to gun threats. The integrated system not only alerts authorities to confirmed gun threats but automatically activates safety systems and sends notifications to key personnel on and off-site, ensuring a swift and coordinated response.
Spot AI’s innovative camera systems provide actionable video insights through an intuitive platform, enhancing operational efficiency, customer experience, and revenue generation. Currently deployed across schools, government offices, manufacturing facilities, retail stores, and corporate locations throughout the U.S., these systems can now monitor live camera feeds to detect brandished firearms, thanks to the integration with Omnilert Gun Detect. Once a weapon is identified, the system automatically notifies pre-designated individuals or Omnilert Monitoring centers for verification with situational intelligence offering critical visual context to facilitate informed decision-making and proactive threat mitigation.
“Gun violence is an escalating concern that demands serious attention and proactive measures,” said Rish Gupta, CEO of Spot AI. “By partnering with Omnilert, we aim to fortify schools and businesses with an additional security layer that can swiftly identify weapons and trigger immediate response actions. Our goal is to create safer environments by enabling prompt and effective intervention.”
"An early gun detection is just the first step in a comprehensive safety response," said Nick Gustavsson, CTO of Omnilert. "Our integration with Spot AI ensures that not only are active shooters identified the moment a weapon is drawn, but that critical safety systems are activated and people are promptly notified of the threat. This seamless integration is essential for transforming existing video surveillance systems into proactive safety solutions, providing a crucial layer of protection from gun violence.”
