A network of acousic sensors to detect gunshot locations

A network of acousic sensors to detect gunshot locations

The creation of a network of acoustic sensors to detect and map in real time when and where a gun is fired. The information of this network should be available for every citizen and help police officers map critical security areas within the city. This information will help target crime.

Points

Most of the time we donĀ“t know the frecuency and regular location of a type of crime. If you want to plan cultural activities or cultural infrastructure to tackle violence or investigate the social causes that trigger crime, you need to know first where to focus. In Venezuela guns are fired all the time and we the people are always at risk. Information is power and we have the necessary technologies to help us overcome the problem.
