Detects visible firearms and knives on any camera and raises an immediate critical alert for operator review. It confirms a weapon across several frames before alerting to suppress false alarms, and runs on the cameras you already have with no special hardware.
Visylix Weapon Detection watches your camera feeds for visible firearms and knives and raises a critical alert the moment one is seen, so your team can respond in seconds rather than minutes. Because a false weapon alarm is costly, it confirms a weapon across several consecutive frames before alerting and lets you tune sensitivity per camera, which keeps nuisance alarms low. It runs on the cameras you already have with no special hardware, can be limited to the areas that matter using zones, and is designed as an assistive alert for operator review, pairing an instant notification with a snapshot so a person can verify and escalate. It suits schools, retail, transport hubs, and any site where an early warning of a weapon matters.
Core capabilities of the Weapon Detection model.
Detects visible guns and knives directly in the video and raises a critical alert.
Confirms a weapon across several consecutive frames before alerting, cutting false alarms.
Raises a high-priority alert with a snapshot the moment a weapon is confirmed.
Works on the cameras you already have, with no special or dedicated hardware.
Tune how readily each camera alerts to match its scene and risk level.
Restrict detection to the areas that matter, such as entrances and lobbies.
Designed as an assistive alert for human review and escalation, not an autonomous action.
Attaches a snapshot to every weapon alert for fast verification and records.
Real-world applications for Weapon Detection.

Alerts security to a firearm at entrances and tills for a faster response.
Watches stations and terminals for weapons in busy public areas.
Adds a weapon-aware layer at entrances to high-security facilities.
Flags a visible weapon in lobbies and waiting areas for staff to act on.
