School Apprehension Using Audio | Sonitrol SV

Sonitrol of Silicon Valley was recently involved with the apprehension of three intruders at a local elementary school.  The intruders were caught with iPads, tablets, and computers that were all stolen from a kindergarten classroom.  These tools are used in the classroom every single day, we have our state-of-the-art audio detection systems to thank for this apprehension. 

It wasn’t until five minutes after the audio sensors alerted our monitoring station that there was a break-in in progress that a door was opened, tripping a door contact.  Without the audio sensors, these intruders could have gotten away with thousands of dollars worth of technology.  

You will hear the intruders braking glass, walking on glass, playing a piano, and talking.  Soon after, you can hear police sirens and police officers with a K-9 unit.  Ultimately, all three intruders were apprehended and arrested.  

Sonitrol’s audio sensors are what separate us from the “other guys”.  Without the audio sensors, these intruders could still be on the street and a kindergarten classroom would be without the tools to teach.
