Abstract
The present invention is generally related to a threat detection and monitoring apparatus with an integrated display system. More particularly, the present invention is directed to an apparatus for use as a public safety and emergency messaging system adapted to detect and identify threats in the surrounding environment and display useful information regarding the threat or other public information to the public.
Claims25
A threat detection and monitoring apparatus comprising:
- a display device comprising a viewing screen;
- one or more sensors for detecting a threat and/or monitoring surroundings integrated with the display device;
- wherein at least one sensor is a computer-aided trace detection system;
- a logic system operably connected to the sensors to process information received from the sensors according to pre-selected instructions;
