Gunshot Detection Systems
Acoustic and acoustic-plus-infrared gunshot detection and shot-localization that detect, locate and report gunfire in real time and trigger automated video, mass-notification and lockdown workflows. Built around DHS SAFETY Act-certified, DARPA-derived sensors for indoor and wide-area force protection.
- Indoor/outdoor acoustic+IR gunshot sensor network design and install
- Sub-second shot detection, localization and alerting (x/y/floor)
- Integration to VMS for automatic camera call-up to the shot location
- Triggering of mass notification, lockdown and PACS door lockdown
Capabilities engineered in, not bolted on.
Acoustic + IR Confirmation
Dual acoustic and infrared sensing distinguishes live gunfire from doors, fireworks and dropped objects, so the alarm that reaches responders is the one that matters. Detection and reporting happen in under a second.
Floor-Level Shot Localization
Networked sensors triangulate each round to an x/y position and floor, not just a building. Responders and the ECC see exactly where the threat is moving instead of searching blind.
Automated Lockdown Triggering
A confirmed shot auto-cues cameras to the location and fires mass notification, PACS door lockdown and a law-enforcement dispatch feed with coordinates. The response begins before anyone reaches a phone.
Gunshot Detection Systems that holds up to scrutiny.
Acoustic and acoustic-plus-infrared gunshot detection and shot-localization that detect, locate and report gunfire in real time and trigger automated video, mass-notification and lockdown workflows. Built around DHS SAFETY Act-certified, DARPA-derived sensors for indoor and wide-area force protection.
We lead with engineering and compliance: the system is designed to standard, installed on genuine warrantied hardware, and documented so it clears procurement and accreditation the first time.
What's included

Standards & compliance
Every gunshot detection systemsengagement is delivered on TAA / NDAA Section 889-compliant hardware, with country of origin documented and a compliant equivalent quoted whenever a unit isn't designated — engineered to DHS SAFETY Act, UFC 4-021-01 where they apply.
Vendors & systems we use
Vendor-neutral — the right compliant line for the mission.
Locate the shot before the first call
We design and install acoustic and acoustic-plus-infrared sensor networks that detect, localize and report gunfire across indoor spaces and wide-area perimeters in real time. Each detection is cross-checked by infrared signature to suppress false alarms, then resolved to an x/y position and floor and pushed straight into your VMS, mass-notification and access-control platforms. We standardize on DHS SAFETY Act-certified sensors and prove the design through documented acceptance testing on your site.
- Sub-second detection with infrared false-alarm rejection
- Shot coordinates fed directly to ECC and dispatch
- Auto camera call-up plus lockdown on confirmed gunfire

Gunshot Detection Systems — frequently asked
What does gunshot detection systems include?
Acoustic and acoustic-plus-infrared gunshot detection and shot-localization that detect, locate and report gunfire in real time and trigger automated video, mass-notification and lockdown workflows. Built around DHS SAFETY Act-certified, DARPA-derived sensors for indoor and wide-area force protection. Core deliverables include indoor/outdoor acoustic+ir gunshot sensor network design and install; sub-second shot detection, localization and alerting (x/y/floor); integration to vms for automatic camera call-up to the shot location.
Is your gunshot detection systems TAA and NDAA Section 889 compliant?
Yes. Every gunshot detection systems engagement is delivered on TAA / NDAA Section 889-compliant hardware with country of origin confirmed at the SKU level, and we quote a compliant equivalent whenever a unit isn't designated. Relevant standards: DHS SAFETY Act, UFC 4-021-01.
Who is gunshot detection systems for?
Gunshot Detection Systems is built for DoD installations, federal facilities, SLED, critical infrastructure. We size and document the system to that environment's threats, compliance posture and budget.
Do you handle the whole lifecycle, or just install?
One accountable team owns it end to end — assess, design, integrate, monitor and maintain — so accountability never falls through a hand-off. Maintenance and SLAs keep gunshot detection systems compliant and operational over time.
