Abstract
Gunshot detection within an indoor environment is performed with video analytics. One or more position-independent gunshot sensors are deployed. Infrared and acoustic information is collected within an indoor environment for indoor gunshot detection with video analytics. The infrared information and the acoustic information are analyzed to determine a gunshot occurrence. Video analytics for tracking a suspected shooter of the gunshot is performed, based on the gunshot occurrence, using video that is collected. A person of interest is tagged, as a portion of the video analytics, for the purpose of tracking the person of interest. Video collection from one or more video streams is engaged, based on the detection of the gunshot. The video analytics uses image classifiers. The image classifiers are used to identify a gun type. The suspected shooter is identified based on the video analytics. An audio microphone is activated based on the detecting of the gunshot.
