On July 28, 2025, a gunman carrying a visible M4-style rifle walked into a Midtown Manhattan office building and opened fire. Four lives were lost, including an off-duty NYPD officer. Security cameras captured the moment—but no alerts were triggered. No warnings were issued. There was no chance to intervene. 

Shortly after the tragedy, our partner, RAD (Robotic Assistance Devices), processed the same video footage using their firearm detection technology. Their system identified the weapon before the suspect reached the front doors. 

This wasn’t a hypothetical. It was a demonstration of how enhanced detection and response tools can drastically improve how we control access and protect people.

More Than Surveillance—A Smarter Layer of Security

Whether you’re securing a school, office building, house of worship, hospital, or event venue, you need more than cameras. You need technology that sees the threat and acts.

Together, these tools give your team early warning, visual and audio deterrents, and the ability to alert law enforcement before a threat escalates. 

Addressing the Security Needs of Vulnerable Environments

RAD’s detection technology is proving invaluable in environments at heightened risk, including:
