Abstract
Provided is a an active shooter monitoring and incapacitation system that can augment active security forces control during emergencies at schools, churches, military, and government institutions. The system includes one or more cameras that are controlled remotely by an operator. If a hostile person or active shooter is located, a warning system, such as an audio/visual alert and laser dazzler is activated to alert nearby people of the threat to vacate and to notify the active shooter that he/she is required to halt any hostile actions. If the hostile person does not cease his activities, one or more stun guns contained within the system are then utilized to incapacitate the active shooter with a large electric shock, thereby incapacitating the person until the authorities arrive.
