Abstract:

In this work, we describe a rapid-innovation challenge to combat and deal with the problem of internal, insider physical threats e.g., active shooters and associated first-responder situation awareness on military installations. Our teams research and development effort described within focused on several key tech development areas 1 indoor acoustical gunshot detection, 2 indoor spatial tracking of first responders, 3 bystander safety and protection, 4 two-way mass alerting capability, and 5 spatial information displays for command and control.
