According to the release, it can distinguish between a car backfiring and a real gunshot. Employing a network of hidden microphones linked to a central computer, the system is designed to detect a shot within seconds. It can “hear” a gunshot, provide accurate location information within several miles depending on the number of sensors deployed, and archive the audio for forensic analysis. The technology is also capable of determining information relating to the direction and speed of shooters on the move.
