Not much good for the first ones shot.

[FoxNews] The Department of Homeland Security said its Science and Technology Directorate has developed a portable gunshot detection system in collaboration with the Massachusetts-based Shooter Detection Systems company.
The department said that the system, known as SDS Outdoor, could provide "critical information about outdoor shooting incidents almost instantaneously to first responders."
The new system is reportedly an enhancement to the commercial, off-the-shelf Guardian Indoor Active Shooter Detection System.
The department said SDS Outdoor uses both the sound and flash of the gunshot to detect and validate each gunshot, in order to drastically reduce false positives. |
