SHOTPOINT®
Databuoy’s automated SHOTPOINT system is the fastest, most precise fully automated gunshot detection and localization platform.
SHOTPOINT allows first responders, security personnel and law enforcement to react to an active shooter situation with confidence and precision.
SHOTPOINT is the only solution that can be deployed in both indoor and outdoor environments
Multi-factor authentication is critical to a real-time gunshot detection and localization system. SHOTPOINT is used indoors and outdoors with sensors deployed in small indoor spaces or large areas like gyms or stadiums.
In an outdoor environment, SHOTPOINT shines, giving customers an unfair advantage when securing their property. Our wide-area outdoor coverage is unmatched, with sensors placed up to 165 ft. apart and often located in the most volatile environments imaginable (see the Fremont Street Experience white paper).
Only SHOTPOINT has fully automated gunshot detection
SHOTPOINT integrates with the customer’s video management system and access control system, allowing reports and notifications to be delivered to mobile devices and third-party systems in real-time without slow and unreliable human interaction.
Only SHOTPOINT has trajectory angle detection
In addition to reliability, accuracy, and automated real-time notifications, SHOTPOINT is the only gunshot detection solution in the world capable of identifying and resolving the trajectory angle of an elevated shooter.
This is particularly valuable in urban environments where echoes and other false detections easily fool other shot detection solutions. SHOTPOINT can remove false detections with extreme precision and deliver actionable information in seconds.
Industry-leading Precision
Reports in less than 2 seconds providing a shooter’s location within 2 meters.

Frequently Asked Questions
Databuoy’s SHOTPOINT requires a minimum of two sensors to detect and confirm a gunshot in a 2D environment. To detect vertical gunfire, in a 3D environment, a minimum of three sensors are required.
Databuoy is the only solution that does not require human intervention. The benefit is near-perfect accuracy, quicker notification of an event and faster response times. It also results in the elimination of human bias when reporting on active shooter events. This level of accuracy and repeatable results provide invaluable information that first responders can trust.
Our patented platform uses a network of acoustic sensors to detect and confirm gunshots. Through a series of complex algorithms, SHOTPOINT removes echoes and false detections with near 100% accuracy. SHOTPOINT is capable of queuing cameras to capture video or photos of the shooter and can also deliver audio, floor plans and can activate lockdown protocols. And all of this happens in approximately 1 second.
Databuoy prefers a minimum of 10m and a maximum of 60m separation.
