Weapon detection

As opposed to other approaches, our technology for weapon detection is based on research work in which we consider not only the images of pistols, machine guns, etc. but also the individual’s body pose.

Our results show that this allows for the detection of weapons in poor quality images captured by standard security cameras, where the weapon itself appears small or under low light, being the body pose significantly helpful under these circumstances.

False positives can also be reduced to nearly zero, as only meaningful detections (like a handgun located in an individual’s hand and not elsewhere on the image) will trigger an alarm.
