How sensitive are the sensors to picking up voices?

• While an individual sensor could potentially hear a human voice, that sound would be purged within 30 hours with no ShotSpotter employee, police department customer or other 3rd party having the ability to hear it unless an incident was created
• Human voices are not loud enough to trigger sensors and are rarely heard as part of an incident under review. The person would have to be screaming very loudly above the loud sound that initiated the incident and the audio last only a few seconds.
• In the past extended audio was available to police agencies and prosecutors for court cases. This is no longer possible under new policy and technology controls.
