is pleased to announce that the platform for critical and emergency communications is now integrated with the Guardian Indoor Active Shooter Detection System from . AMS receives event triggers from Guardian–s gunshot sensors and can provide immediate, location-specific instructional notifications and automate access lockdowns based on the dynamic event information. completed the integration in preparation for active testing with government and enterprise security teams.
“Keeping people informed as a crisis unfolds, such as an active shooter requires an automated and very rapid lockdown. SDS provides the gunshot event information and AMS instantly triggers the lockdown with voice over the paging system for individuals to shelter in place until the –all clear–. This is where the AMS two-way communications and its capability to pinpoint the gunshot location on a map sent along with the alert is key.” said Co-Founder/CEO .
“The Amika Mobility Server captures the SDS Guardian gunshot location events and relays them on any communication layer which is critical in active shooter situations,” said CEO, Christian Connors. “For security teams, AMS handles the situational awareness, communications and control response to active shooter situations in real time utilizing the gunshot detection and location information SDS provides to their system. We look forward to supporting customers with this integrated and powerful platform.”
Amika Mobile has pioneered technology that addresses two gaps in public safety and security. First, AMS automatically discovers wireline or mobile devices by location — especially important for airports, sports arenas, entertainment venues and campuses where stakeholders and visitors must be given clear instructions based on where they are when an emergency strikes. Second, AMS automatically detects and intelligently manages dynamic sensor events triggered from disparate physical security systems. Amika Mobile has delivered ground breaking solutions to customers in this area for 6 years. Such dynamic events include gunshot detected, forced door entry, wall-mounted Panic, card access under duress, detected motion from cameras, fire panel events, etc. The platform automatically delivers identified events to appropriate security teams at command centers or while mobile to help manage the crisis.
has an open architecture that enables rapid integration with third-party equipment such as access control, fire systems, gunshot detectors, cameras, gas sensors and applications such as mobile, desktop or wall panic. Captured events from any monitoring sensor product is clustered and disambiguated to issue a single, group or mass alerts. The events trigger alerts that identify recipients by dynamic locations or team membership over ANY layer of communication. AMS simultaneously alerts ALL layers including SMS, Pop-ups on SmartPhones, Tablets or Desktops, Email, VoIP, Callouts, Radios, Overhead Displays, Paging Systems, Facebook, Twitter, or RSS.
forecasts the Incident and Emergency Management Market to grow from USD 80.10 Billion in 2015 to USD 101.33 Billion in 2020. This growth is driven by many factors including increase in workplace violence, terrorism, natural disasters and heightened awareness of the need for critical and emergency communication during a crisis.
