Wow..."The Shot Spotter technology can pinpoint the location of gunfire within two to three feet and can distinguish between shots fired and fire crackers or a backfiring car."

Thats pretty cool lol

Yeah. A police-run network of microphones around the city. How cool.


That will never be subverted for another purpose.

was referring to how close they can pinpoint the shoots....within two or three feet... thats impressive regardless.

The technology is impressive, but I'm with Scutter on this one.. I don't see good coming from this at all..

Indianapolis cannot adapt to this. It would not be in the budget.

Baltimore's done something similar. Hasn't been all that effective since most folks tend not to hang around after firing. Go figure.

Well then they need to get some cameras installed every 40 feet around the city, right?

I saw a discovery channel show about that system and it's impressive what it does. but it is true most people don't stick around after the shots are fired.

 

[NateIU10]

Areas of Cali have it too.
