  • Publication number: 20250252831
    Abstract: Various implementations include a system for detecting a gunshot. The system includes a device for capturing acoustic data that is potentially sound emanating from an actual gunshot and a processor. The processor includes non-transitory, computer-readable medium including computer-executable instructions. The computer-executable instructions cause the processor to determine whether an acoustic sample contains an ultrasonic burst that corresponds to an ultrasonic signature of an actual gunshot having ultrasonic component sound frequency content in excess of 30 kHz. The acoustic sample is a portion of the captured acoustic data starting at or prior to an initial acoustic impulse within the captured acoustic data and ending at a predetermined sample length. The determination is used to identify an actual gunshot and distinguish it from that of a sound burst that is not an actual gunshot.
