Identiv Announces Strategic Partnership with Omnilert

Identiv, Inc. announced a strategic partnership with Omnilert, a leading provider of AI visual gun detection technology.

Through this partnership, Identiv became a reseller of Omnilert Gun Detect, integrating its advanced gun detection capabilities into the Velocity Vision Ecosystem to significantly enhance safety monitoring across a variety of sites, including educational institutions, corporate offices, healthcare facilities, retail spaces, manufacturing plants, and more.

As incidents of gun violence continue to rise in the United States, the need for proactive security measures has never been more urgent.

• Seamless Integration: The Omnilert Gun Detect system integrates seamlessly with the Velocity Vision Ecosystem, providing a single-pane-of-glass view for security operations. This integration ensures that all security measures work together harmoniously, enhancing the overall effectiveness of the system.
• Comprehensive Emergency Response: The integration of Omnilert Gun Detect with Identiv’s solutions allows for a full-scale, automated emergency response. This includes real-time situational intelligence, immediate lockdown procedures, and efficient communication with emergency responders and building occupants.

The partnership’s benefits extend to a variety of environments where safety is paramount:
• Educational Institutions: Schools and universities can benefit from early gun detection and rapid response, ensuring the safety of students and staff.
• Workplaces: Corporate offices and manufacturing plants can enhance employee safety with real-time gun detection and rapid emergency response.
