Abstract

An apparatus for detecting gunshots. The apparatus may include a device housing configured to removably couple to a light fixture; a microphone inside or mounted to the device housing; and a processor inside the device housing and electrically coupled to the microphone. The processor can be configured to receive audio data from the microphone; execute a machine learning model using the audio data as input to determine whether the audio data corresponds to a gunshot; and responsive to determining the audio data corresponds to a gunshot, transmit the audio data to a remote processor.
