ZeroEyes, creators of the only proactive A.I.-based gun detection video analytics platform that holds the US Department of Homeland Security SAFETY Act Designation, announces that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has issued a patent for the company’s method of identifying brandished guns and dispatching alerts to first responders as fast as 3 to 5 seconds from the moment the gun is detected.
The USPTO issued U.S. Patent No. 20200364468 for ZeroEyes’ system, which performs real-time analytics on a live video stream. It includes a training database populated with frames of actual video of guns taken in relevant environments across diverse industries such as K-12, casinos, retail, healthcare, etc.
Superior gun detection technology
ZeroEyes used hundreds of thousands of proprietary images and videos to train its A.I. to be the most comprehensive and superior gun detection technology on the market. The A.I. does not perform any facial recognition, nor receive, record, store, or share any biometric data, videos or images of any kind.

“We’re honoured to receive the USPTO’s verification of our unique methodology for proactively preventing gun-related violence,” said Marcus Day, SVP of Research and Development, ZeroEyes, adding “Our rapidly growing team remains committed to engineering effective, scalable solutions to keep our customers safe.”
ZeroEyes was founded by a group of former Navy SEALs and technologists, and its patented system was developed by inventors who will be pursuing an entire IP portfolio in 2023. The current patent applies to all three of the company’s target vertical markets: education, commercial and government.
Gun-related incidents
Former U.S. military and law enforcement specialists verify every gun detection 24/7/365 from the in-house ZeroEyes Operations Center (ZOC) to eliminate false positives and deliver accurate and actionable intelligence on gun-related incidents, including the gunman's appearance, clothing, weapon, and real-time location.
ZeroEyes is deployed across a variety of industries in 30+ states, including K-12 school districts, commercial property groups, shopping malls, places of worship, hospitals, military bases, manufacturing plants, casinos and Fortune 500 campuses.
