Gunshot Detection Sensor with Display

A portable device configured to use with a gunshot location system having at least one sensor, the device comprising:

• a housing having a shape and size enabling portable association with a person;
• and
• a network interface that receives data transmitted by the gunshot location system via a wireless network, wherein the data comprises positional information regarding a source location for a gunshot;
• a processing component configured to use time of arrival (TOA) information, from multiple, spatially separate sensors and associated with muzzle blasts as well as known positions of the sensors to calculate a location of the gunshot;
• and
• a display that displays the positional information.
