Security camera system with projectile technology

A security camera and weapon system, comprising:

• a camera for capturing images of an area;
• a display screen for displaying images captured by the camera;
• a weapon co-located with the camera and controllable by a user to fire a projectile,
• the projectile comprising:
• a shell casing enclosing a projectile primer and a propellant;
• primer contacts on an outside surface of the shell casing and in physical contact with the projectile primer;
• application of a voltage to the primer contacts ignites the primer and thereby the propellant, causing the projectile to be ejected from a weapon barrel;
• the camera controlled and the weapon aimed and fired by the user from a system controller executing a software application, the system controller comprising a smart phone or a processing device for executing software instructions associated with the software application, the software application for displaying a first icon for controlling camera pan, tilt, and zoom to cover a desired field of view, and a second icon for controlling a projectile aiming indicia and for firing the projectile, the projectile aiming indicia overlaid on images captured by the camera and presented on the display screen;
• the weapon and the camera separately controllable as to a respective aiming or pointing direction;
• and
• an audio channel further comprising a microphone at a location remote from the security camera and weapon system, and a speaker co-located with the camera, the audio channel for use by the user to provide a verbal message to a person in a field-of-view of the camera.
