Method of operating a security system with deterrent capability for intimidation and neutralization
A method of operating a security system with deterrent capability is implemented through security cameras that are articulated and non-articulated, entry doors, and a control unit. The control unit is communicatively coupled with the security cameras and the entry doors as the control unit is supervised by a trained operator. The security cameras continuously send audio and video data to the control unit so that a threatening target can be identified before he or she can do any destruction. When the threatening target is identified, the entry doors are locked and electrified through the control unit in order to provide an initial defense system for the threatening target. Additional deterrence can be implemented at the threatening target through a less-lethal deterrence unit and non-lethal deterrence units of the articulated security cameras while the non-articulated security cameras provide surveillance of the threatening target to the control unit.
1. A method of operating a security system with deterrent capability for intimidation and neutralization comprises the steps of:
(A) providing a plurality of security cameras and a plurality of entry doors, wherein the plurality of security cameras includes at least one articulated security camera and at least one non-articulated security camera;
(B) providing a control unit, wherein the control unit is communicatively coupled with the plurality of security cameras and the plurality of entry doors;
(C) continuously receiving video data from each of the plurality of security camera to a display screen of the control unit in order to visually identify a threatening target;
(D) continuously receiving audio data from each of the plurality of security camera to a speaker module of the control unit in order to audibly identify the threatening target;
(E) locking and arming each of the plurality of entry doors through the control unit,
if the threatening target is identified through one of the plurality of camera;
(F) sending an intimidating command from a graphic user interface (GUI) to actuate a non-lethal deterrence unit of the at least one articulated security camera in order to intimidate the threatening target;
(G) sending an engaged command from the GUI to actuate a less-lethal deterrence unit in order to neutralize the threatening target, providing a projectile module as the less-lethal deterrence unit, choosing a trigger icon through the GUI in order to activate the projectile module, and firing at least one projectile at the threatening target through the projectile module; and
(H) sending an emergency notification to an emergency dispatch center through the GUI.
2. The method of operating a security system with deterrent capability for intimidation and neutralization as claimed in claim 1 comprises the steps of:
storing the video data and the audio data within a storage module of the control unit.
3. The method of operating a security system with deterrent capability for intimidation and neutralization as claimed in claim 1 comprises the steps of:
activating an electromagnet lock of each of the plurality of entry doors in order to lock each of the plurality of entry doors;
electrifying a door handle of each of the plurality of entry doors in order to arm each of the plurality of entry doors; and
transmitting an audible warning through an intercom unit, wherein the audible warning alerts about the threatening target.
4. The method of operating a security system with deterrent capability for intimidation and neutralization as claimed in claim 1 comprises the steps of:
providing an aimed laser module as the non-lethal deterrence unit;
choosing a laser warning icon through the GUI in order to activate the aimed laser module; and
visually emitting a laser point toward the threatening target through the aimed laser module.
5. The method of operating a security system with deterrent capability for intimidation and neutralization as claimed in claim 1 comprises the steps of:
providing a security warning light module as the non-lethal deterrence unit;
choosing a light warning icon through the GUI in order to activate the security warning light module; and
visually emitting a plurality of flashing lights toward the threatening target through the security warning light module.
6. The method of operating a security system with deterrent capability for intimidation and neutralization as claimed in claim 1 comprises the steps of:
providing a warning sound module as the non-lethal deterrence unit;
choosing a sound warning icon through GUI in order to activate the warning sound module; and
audibly emitting an alarm toward the threatening target through the warning sound module.
