Knife Detection System

AI-powered real time knife detection to help prevent assaults and robberies

Trusted by

Knife crime is a growing global problem, even for countries with strict weapon control laws. Knives are easily obtained and readily concealed.

● In the United States, knives are used twice as often as rifles in homicides. ● In Europe and Africa, knives are responsible for more homicides than guns. ● In the UK, knives are responsible for 43 percent of homicides. ● Knife crime is also significant in Asia, with males equally likely to be killed with a gun or a knife.

With these concerning statistics, Scylla has developed a powerful knife detection solution to allow you to immediately respond to critical situations involving brandished knives.

How it works

Scylla automatically monitors all camera feeds for any situation where someone brandishes a knife.

Scylla’s advanced knife detection algorithm can identify knives, even at a distance. Our object detection algorithm ensures accurate detection.

When there is a detection, an alert and a short video snippet is displayed on the dashboard for the security camera operator, and it also sends an alert with the video to the mobile app, providing important context and situational awareness to security officers.
