Overview

ZeroEyes is the industry leader in Visual Firearm Detection, designed to help identify brandished firearms through existing security cameras. Operating at scale, we detect firearms daily, providing alerts to security teams and law enforcement to help mitigate gun violence. Now, ZeroEyes is offering Visual Knife Detection, extending its mission by equipping security professionals with tools created to assist in identifying and responding to bladed-weapon threats before they escalate.

Two capabilities. One platform.

Firearm & knife detection using existing security cameras. Both run on the same ZeroEyes appliance, route through the same 24/7 human verification team, and deliver alerts through the same channels.

From reactive footage to near real-time recognition.

Cameras record threats. ZeroEyes helps teams see them, verify them, and act on them while there is still time to respond.

The Problem We Solve

  • Traditional security cameras are reactive and ineffective for identifying threats in real time.
  • Law enforcement and security teams often lack critical information during a threat event, delaying response and increasing risk.

ZeroEyes Solution

  • Firearm & knife detection using existing security cameras
  • Supports rapid threat recognition and response
  • 24/7 human verification to mitigate false alerts
  • Actionable intelligence for first responders, including image of the detection, weapon description, and precise location

Detect. Verify. Alert.

Every firearm and knife detection follows the same three-step path from camera to responder.

Detection

Detects visible brandished firearms and knives. Runs 24/7 365 days a year.

Human Verification

Every detection is verified in house by military and law enforcement veterans, often in seconds.

Alerting

Verified detections dispatched to the customer and local 911 dispatch center through ZE applications, integrations and phone call.

Video stays on your network. Only detections leave.

Video from your cameras is analyzed by a ZeroEyes appliance installed inside your network. The only images sent out are frames containing a potential detection, which go to the ZeroEyes Operation Center for human verification.
