Gun Detection

Gun detection & active shooter prevention system

Ambient.ai detects both firearms and early warning signs to proactively prevent active shooter incidents from escalating.

Your active shooter response needs more than gun detection

An enterprise with 500 doors will generate around 2,500 physical access control system alerts per day — over 95% of which are false positives.

Ambient.ai auto-clears nuisance alarms and saves your operators thousands of hours annually to focus on verified threats.

“Faculty and staff feel better, they feel safer. They feel that the firearm detection will work and will help save lives if that situation ever presents itself. You can’t get that feeling without having a system that works.”

Advanced AI gun detection

Leveraging your existing security camera infrastructure, Ambient.ai accurately detects a person brandishing a firearm or knife.

Identify weapons in a crowd, partially concealed, and at a distance. Receive alerts for verified threats within seconds to automatically connect with guards, operators, and law enforcement.

Detection of early warning signs

Ambient.ai continually monitors for and detects hard-to-spot behaviors that can be precursors for active shootings, including sudden egress, tailgating, perimeter breaches, and more.

Empower your security team with this critical advantage to intervene before a gun is spotted and prevent escalation.

Ambient.ai Threat Detection & Response continuously mines your surveillance feeds to detect security threats and pre-incident indicators. With Ambient.ai, security teams can focus on responding to and preventing incidents before they escalate.

Critical Threats with Potential Harm

High severity threats are serious and often result in physical harm, including a person brandishing a firearm or knife.

Perimeter Security Breaches

Perimeter control encompasses security threats that occur at the perimeter, including fence jumping and a vehicle in an unauthorized area.

Unauthorized Access

Unauthorized access includes threats that PACS alone won't detect, such as tailgating and a person entering through a propped door.

Health and Safety Hazards

Health and safety threats endanger employees, students, and customers, like a person falling down or a large crowd forming.
