Winning for Portable Gunshot Detection; Silicon Valley’s V5 Systems Nabs 2018 IoT Integration Award

Winning for Portable Gunshot Detection; Silicon Valley’s V5 Systems Nabs 2018 IoT Integration Award
Fremont, CA, December 18, 2018 --(PR.com)-- Implementing gunshot detection technology quickly in the outdoors is one of V5 Systems’ key offerings, running on its self-powered, portable edge-computing platform. Fittingly, its OnSound Acoustic Gunshot Detection technology won Sales Security & Integration Magazine’s 2018 Internet of Things (IoT) Integration Award based on its ability to collect, analyze and relay the source of gunfire within seconds.

This technology has been adopted by many communities, law enforcement agencies, higher education campuses and has made an immediate impact, as recognized by:

- Detectives from a prominent Bay Area police department who used it to capture a serial shooter who fired at moving vehicles over a four-month period. Without any city-owned cameras nearby to capture video evidence or eye witnesses, they utilized portable OnSound Acoustic Gunshot Detection along with OnSight Portable Surveillance Units, which they were able to relocate as needed to catch the shooter.

- A Silicon Valley city in California, where officers efficiently caught two felons who had committed crimes in multiple jurisdictions. They required a solution that could be quickly deployed to capture evidence and could be easily relocated without putting officers is harm’s way. V5 Systems technology captured evidence that assisted officers in removing criminals from the streets to ensure the safety of the community. Read full case study here: Campbell PD Case Study
As urgent security threats grow, customers increasingly seek 24/7 protection for their assets, including areas in outdoor locations that cannot be easily covered with traditional systems. Key integrators are incorporating, not only V5 Systems’ OnSound Acoustic Gunshot Detection but adding other solutions; V5 Systems offers on its self-powered platform to combat gun violence including:

- Video surveillance for situational awareness
- Video surveillance with analytics to detect objects of interest in real-time

These intelligent, self-powered devices work together to share and relay meaningful information in real-time. This connectedness is a manifestation of the Industrial IoT, enabling municipalities to expand security throughout their cities with accurate and intelligent data-aggregation. V5 Systems’ end-to-end solution allows this to happen quickly as portable devices can be deployed in under 30 minutes in any outdoor environment.

The image below provides a visual of the different layers comprising the V5 Systems technology platform, creating a complete Industrial IoT stack.
