Chicago Does It Again. Crime Loses

Chicago has combined web cameras with sound technology that listens for and recognizes gun shots and pinpoints the source with triangulation. The loser? Crime. Some would protest about big brother but I for one am glad to know that something is being done about crime.

When the cameras hear gunshots they immediately point towards the source of the noise. Thus they are immediately on guard to catch the perp who is fleeing the area. This technology is being developed now for use on humvees so soldiers can discern where shots are coming from.
