Shooter Detection Systems to Showcase Outdoor Gunshot Detection Innovation at ISC West 2026

Shooter Detection Systems (SDS), an Alarm.com company and a leading provider of gunshot detection solutions, will highlight its expanding role in advancing the proven accuracy, advanced integration capabilities, and rapid response gunshot detection provides for both indoor and outdoor applications at ISC West 2026 at Booth #14039.
Interest in gunshot detection technology continues to grow as organizations seek advanced solutions amid rising gun violence across commercial and public environments.
At ISC West, SDS will showcase the SDS Perimeter Outdoor Gunshot Detection System, which is now commercially available following a highly successful beta program. Designed to extend proven indoor gunshot detection capabilities to building exteriors and campus perimeters, SDS Perimeter enables organizations to identify and respond to threats before they can move inside.
The company will also demonstrate advancements in its software platform and deeper technology integrations with other layers of security infrastructure for even stronger protections in the event of gunfire. In addition, SDS will provide valuable insight into how emerging standards are helping central stations improve efficiency during active threat detection as part of the ISC West educational program.
SDS Perimeter Outdoor Gunshot Detection System
After a successful beta program, SDS Perimeter is now readily available to partners, integrators, and end users. This sensor uses SDS’s patented acoustic and infrared technology to accurately detect and pinpoint gunshots outdoors, providing real-time alerts that help initiate lockdowns, dispatch law enforcement, and accelerate response times.
Expanded Market Opportunities for Partners
With the addition of outdoor perimeter coverage, SDS is helping security integration partners expand into key vertical markets, including corporate offices, healthcare campuses, utilities, and K-12 and higher education environments. The ability to secure both building interiors and surrounding grounds provides a comprehensive, layered approach that aligns with evolving security standards and market demand.
Software Experience Upgrades
SDS will also demo its redesigned, web-based shot detection software, featuring a modern interface and a unified map view that visualizes both indoor and outdoor sensor locations in real time. The enhanced user experience enables monitoring centers and security teams to quickly verify events, understand threat location, and coordinate a safe response.
