thousands of times a day American police officers are confronting people who because of reasons of their choices or reasons beyond their choices they need to be subdued in a non-lethal way rep technology is an innovator of modern policing solutions we created this non-lethal solution for law enforcement specifically with the purpose of not causing pain the goal is to restrain an individual to create a safe space between the citizen and the officer that's intended to be used very early in an encounter with an individual that could be armed non assaultive but non-compliant our product is specifically designed for people suffering mental health issues mental crisis is subtype self-induce and it's a safe way to stop an individual from progressing forward causing harm to themselves or to those around them this gives us an option to take someone into custody without hurting themselves others and the police officers this is an impressive step forward in giving another tool to police officers so that they can reduce injuries to themselves and to the people they're serving before you you go to a petard before you go to a Taser before you go to your firearm this should be the lowest level of restraint this is one of the most pain free level of restraint that is on the market today this is Marvel meted reality spider-man has nothing on both I'm really intrigued by the product and it's a lot cheaper than a lawsuit it's a lot cheaper than sending officers to court and if we can prevent an officer from having to put their hands on a suspect and prevent somebody from getting hurt then I'm all for it yeah it does save quite a bit of money in litigation but also in the general public's opinion they'll look at law enforcement as being creative and trying to figure out a way in dealing with those and mental crisis and not resolving to use of force with a firearm as an example or a Taser I think the community would love a product like this what they're seeing on the news is use of force and extreme use of force I think this would go a long way in helping our perception our team began demonstrating the bowler app 100 about six months ago and the response from law enforcement and military it's been nothing short of incredible we've had national and international coverage from over 40 networks we've had reporters and elected officials wrapped and deploying a device on television the bowler app is truly expanded in an extraordinary way we've had requests from over 300 departments in 30 countries to see demonstration to understand how to test a product and pricing our founder our chief technology officer and our in-house embed there Elwood we call him woody Nora who happens to also be my father because over 100 patents to his name he's world famous and we're lucky to have him on the team we're working on several variations to the product today including a virtually silent version of this product specifically to address the consumer market and also to address the threats that we see in our school systems as well as working side-by-side with the US Navy SEALs to put the product on a drone so policing has changed over the last few decades so the challenge that we have now we need to have the response it's appropriate so having something that it's non-lethal that we can bring to the table to help restrain people I think is going to be the change of policing in the future I think the product is outstanding this is going to save lives you the Throwbot xt from recon robotics is the world's most versatile tactical robot it protects the lives of tactical operators and helps resolve dangerous situations by delivering immediate video and audio reconnaissance these capabilities provide operators with increased situational awareness and greater standoff distance to factors that help teams mitigate risks and make informed effective decisions the throw bot XT has several characteristics that make it indispensable to SWAT narcotics and counterterrorism teams it's small and lightweight immediately deployable throwable 236 meters and extremely quiet weighing just five hundred forty grams and measuring less than twenty centimeters wide the t xt fits easily into a small pack along with a hand out operative control unit morale the robot can be deployed in less than five seconds by pulling the activation pin and throwing it into any environment a single joystick on the OCU is used to control the movement of the robot the t xt can survive repeated lateral throws of up to 36 meters and vertical drops of 9 meters once deployed it moves very quietly delivering life-saving audio and video reconnaissance without letting the suspects know that it is on the c the robot is also equipped with an infrared optical system that automatically turns on when the ambient light is low the Throwbot xt may be specified in any of three transmitting frequencies enabling entry teams to simultaneously operate up to three robots in the same environment in addition the t xt can be paired with a recon scout search stick which immediately converts the robot into a pole camera to clear rooftops attics and crawl spaces lastly the new command Mattern station 2.0 allows a command post to receive video and audio transmissions from the Throwbot xt from up to three hundred five meters away tactical commanders and negotiators can now see and hear the intelligence gathered by the robot in real-time enabling all personnel to deliver an integrated response to any situation you a gun is fired somewhere in your city so what happens now in the past there was a slim chance the shooting would be reported to police at all even when it was it took precious time and there was often confusion regarding the location of the shooting and other pertinent information at least that's how things were shot spot has changed all that my utilizing advanced technology honed over two decades we have automated the process we monitor gun fire activity 24/7 so if a gun is fired in any area within shot spotter coverage the system detects locates and immediately alerts police of the gunshot so how does it work it starts with acoustic sensors that are placed on buildings or lamp posts throughout a neighborhood if a gun is fired anywhere in the area multiple sensors detect and timestamp the sound the precise location of the gunshot is determined based on the amount of time it takes for the sound of the gunshot to travel to each individual sensor effectively triangulating the sound the exact location of the detected gunshot is indicated by a dot on a map once an alert is generated it is immediately sent to our IRC or incident review Center we're trained acoustic experts then analyze each incident in mere seconds determining if the sound is gunfire shot spotter acoustic analysts receive extensive training on reviewing and classifying gunfire by distinguishing gunshots from other impulsive sounds that are not gunshots in addition they are trained to append additional contextual information such as multiple shooter alerts or full automatic weapons alerts that can prove to be essential tactical intelligence for law enforcement agencies responding to these crimes the entire transaction takes place in less than 60 seconds with the real-time shot spotter alerts police can immediately be dispatched to the scene utilizing the gunfire audio clip and tactical information officers can approach an exact location quickly and safely to engage the shooter interview witnesses and collect key evidence at the crime scene shot spotters respond app enables patrol officers to receive real-time alerts quickly and effectively in their patrol car on MDT's or on-the-go on their smartphones the shot spotter alert system is used in more than 90 cities and is an invaluable tool to help make communities safer by responding to gunshot incidents faster making it easy to find evidence and reducing risk for police officers
