AI Gun Detection Technology
Data-Centric AI Military Inspired Approach
Omnilert has the most advanced artificial intelligence in the industry. Our data-centric AI delivers improved accuracy and split-second detection of potential gun threats.
Our Technology Data-Centric AI Gun Detection
Our expertise in AI has roots in the U.S. Department of Defense and DARPA related to real-time target recognition and threat classification. That military focus on high reliability and precision carried through to the development of our AI threat detection, which goes beyond identifying guns to finding active shooter threats.
We employ a data-centric AI methodology that prioritizes high-quality training data. While traditional methods focus on data volume, sourcing millions of gun images, we take a quality-over-quantity approach. Our training data is hand-curated with rich annotations that improve accuracy and increase reliability.
DHS SAFETY Act-Designated AI Gun Detection

Powerful AI Software How Our AI Detects Gun Threats
Omnilert’s AI Threat Detection software employs a multi-dimensional approach, pinpointing not only guns but also potential threat actors.
Step 1 Assess
The system first assesses the video footage to identify a human body without regard to color, gender, or other personal attributes.
Step 2 Detect
Simultaneously, the AI searches for a wide range of possible handguns and firearms in close proximity to the body, while inert objects are identified as possible false positives.
Step 3 Analyze
Finally, video frames are analyzed in sequence to track the potential threat—both gun and body—to determine if a gun is brandished and is a threat with a high degree of confidence.
The resulting shooter detection takes place in fractions of a second.
Data-enriched intelligence is then automatically shared with a security operations center, or to one of Omnilert’s five-diamond certified monitoring centers, for real-time verification.

FAQ Frequently Asked
Questions For Omnilert Gun Detection
What is a gun detection system?
Powered by artificial intelligence (AI), Omnilert Gun Detect reliably and rapidly recognizes firearms and immediately triggers multi-channel communication alerts and automated pre-defined safety protocols.
Are gun detection systems effective at stopping shooters?
Gunshot detection systems only inform you after the incident has already escalated. Your surveillance system can only help you investigate after the fact. In comparison, Omnilert Gun Detect gives emergency response teams advance warning before shots are fired and delivers precise information on the location and visuals of the potential shooter.
What is the best way to stop gun violence?
As gun violence in the United States continues to steadily increase, organizations and institutions are seeking new ways to protect their constituents. Video surveillance systems are increasingly being deployed, although monitoring can be difficult, unreliable, and expensive. Omnilert Gun Detect offers always-on monitoring with unparalleled reliability at a price point affordable to organizations and institutions of all sizes and complexities.
Which gun detection technology is best for large campuses?
Powered by artificial intelligence (AI), Omnilert Gun Detect uses existing video surveillance systems to reliably and rapidly recognize firearms and immediately trigger multi-channel alerts and automated pre-defined safety protocols. The combination of these rich capabilities provides campus safety teams with the broadest array of solutions, spanning prevention, notification, engagement and management.
Can gun detection prevent a mass shooting?
While emergency notification, engagement, and management are all designed to inform people and prevent harm, Omnilert has a set of AI-enhanced capabilities that move the timeline even earlier. Our Prevention Suite is designed to provide advance warning and rich data to the organization, so they can determine the best course of action and initiate the correct response. The native gun detection and mass notification integration reduces the time from first sighting to alerting to a handful of seconds and ultimately saves lives.
