A group of inventors have patented a device that continuously monitors and collects evidence on gun usage. The device uses a number of sensors to detect various gun related events such as removal of the gun from a holster, direction at which the gun is being pointed and pulling of the trigger. The device also includes camera to take videos and a microphone to record sounds. As soon as the gun is removed from the holster, pictures and sounds are automatically captured and other gun related data such as a level of the gun and the direction in which it’s being aimed are recorded continuously. This event may also automatically trigger a phone call to a police partner or central station for backup.
