“The financial risk of gun violence is too large to not address.”
- Fortune 500 CEOGun Detection
Athena was established to prevent mass shootings; our mission is to save lives. We started Athena by leveraging technology that used existing security cameras and AI software to detect visible weapons. Soon after, we expanded to thermal cameras in order to also detect concealed weapons. Through our Gun Detection Systems, we can help stop crime in its tracks.
What’s Included in Athena’s Gun Detection Systems
Concealed Gun Detection
Athena’s Concealed Gun Detection System leverages similar technology to our Elevated Temperature Detection System, except there are two thermal cameras rather than just one. The system utilizes two (2) 384pixel thermal cameras so one can be in front of the subject and behind the subject, in order to see if there’s a concealed weapon on the front or back of their body. We still utilize an iPad for the visual camera and computer, as well as an HSRP to maintain accuracy in ambient temperature.
Visible Gun Detection
Athena’s Visible Gun Detection System is the basis for how our company was established. It leverages existing security cameras a company has already set up, and either a Tower or Rackmount Appliance to store the camera streams and the AI software that detects when someone pulls out a gun. Athena has ‘trained’ the AI to detect over 900 different guns.
Software Features
Athena’s Gun Detection Systems Can:
- Send alerts from different cameras to a VMS system
- Send alerts to a user that has control over multiple cameras
- Send alerts from all cameras to one user
- Create a group of users to send alerts
- Add a camera to the management system
- Use an Android App to receive alert notifications
- Integrate into a third party API
- Be deployed three ways: standalone, cloud, and on-prem
- Auto-configure to read the blackbody in order to avoid manual calibration – touchless configuration
- Use enterprise management alerts that can assign different cameras to different users, and one user can see all the alerts
- Be configured from the cloud
- Be configured to HIPPA-compliant settings
- Be used as a SAAS (software as a service)
- Upgrade and update automatically
