Innovative AI-powered security cameras system can alert about guns in real-time possibly preventing shootings before they happen.
, is a businesswoman and serial entrepreneur who is actively working to help stop mass shootings. By making existing surveillance cameras smart, it is possible now for the first time to accurately recognize guns, knives, and spot criminal acts at schools, places of worship, and other public places as well as terrorist targets. This is a huge step in surveillance technology as well as citizen security.
"Athena Security ethically uses computer vision to focus only on accurately alerting when a gun, weapon, or criminal act is committed," Lisa Falzone tells Interesting Engineering."There's no reason to capture personal information because we're focused on saving lives by eliminating the time it takes police, medical, and local staff to react. The analogy we often make is that we're more like a fire alarm, except we alert for weapons.
According to Falzone, no data goes to the cloud, all data is kept in-house and never used for profit or ulterior motives."Our focus is to keep our customers safe and save lives so we align our product with only those directives. Security footage stays on local drives and is never monetized," she says.
She explains how by alerting only for criminal objects human faces are blurred and personal ID is ignored.The system and application can detect and alert of guns in real-time, Athena Security AI gun detection uses a system that connects to an already existent security camera system in order to deliver fast, accurate threat detection. The AI security camera then can identify objects such as knives and guns with 99 percent accuracy.
Anyone can be a victim of either an individual or a mass shooting as long as guns are sold to anyone and in possession of anyone with a wish to kill. It is everyone's responsibility to actively do as much as we can to stop these criminal acts against humanity. A wish of peace sent to the air only will never be enough to stop anything. 1968 to 1980: 377,000The total of firearm-related deaths from 1968 to 2015 was 1,516,863 whereas the total of war fatalities by major U.S.
