Gunshot Detection features and capabilities

SDS Powered by Alarm.com seamlessly integrates into the Alarm.com for Business platform and provides instant gunshot detection. Gunshot signals can be forwarded directly to a monitoring station and emergency personnel dispatched in seconds.

Gunshot detection and response

When a gunshot is detected, the signal is automatically sent to Alarm.com’s cloud-based security platform. This allows for two processes: (1) Alerting the central station and enabling identification through visual verification, and (2) sending emergency notifications via local alarms and SMS and push alerts.
