Livingston County public safety officials say everyday security cameras can be used to dramatically accelerate response times during critical emergencies<\/em><\/em><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

HOWELL, Mich.\u2014Aug. 22, 2024 \u2014 With the common goal of improving security and emergency response in the event of a critical incident, community members in Livingston County have deployed technology that turns their standard security cameras into a powerful resource for 911 Emergency Communications Center telecommunicators (911 professionals). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s all about response time: The key to saving lives, curtailing damage and rapidly resolving an emergency of any kind\u2013whether it\u2019s a natural disaster, fire, mass shooting or other criminal activity\u2013is getting accurate information to first responders so they can take quick, decisive action,\u201d said Mike Murphy, Livingston County Sheriff. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While security cameras are ubiquitous at schools and businesses, 911 telecommunicators typically cannot access them in an emergency. Eagle Eye 911 Camera Sharing<\/em><\/a> changes that by giving telecommunicators instant access to live video from one or multiple security cameras when a 911-triggered emergency occurs, empowering them to quickly deliver critical incident information to first responders through a partnership with RapidSOS<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Telecommunicators generally rely on verbal information from 911 callers. Now, with Camera Sharing, the telecommunicator can also have \u201ceyes on the scene\u201d and, within seconds, gather an immense amount of information. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cCamera Sharing gives us a real-time view of the situation at hand as it\u2019s unfolding,\u201d said Kecia Williams, 911 Director, Livingston County 911 Central Dispatch. \u201cLots of times it takes a while to attain pertinent information from a 911 caller because they\u2019re distraught or not clear. With Camera Sharing, we can instantly see for ourselves what\u2019s going on, and we can get this information to the fire department, EMS or law enforcement much quicker.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Livingston County is the first county in Michigan to demo the new technology at the Livingston Educational Service Agency in Howell, an organization that works with local school districts to provide educational services and support to 26,000 students throughout the county. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI am impressed with the Camera Sharing technology and can see the potential for improving response times by first responders to critical events in our community,\u201d said Michael Hubert, Superintendent of Livingston Educational Service Agency. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Joe Bommarito of Elite Fire Safety, a division of Sciens Building Solutions<\/a>, a security integrator based in Novi, Michigan, said, \u201cMost businesses and schools already have security cameras that can easily be connected to Eagle Eye 911 Camera Sharing, which is a first-of-its-kind technology that has cybersecurity and privacy protections built in. As a former law enforcement officer, I believe camera sharing can significantly improve the outcome of emergencies and improve safety and security for first responders.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dean Drako, CEO of Eagle Eye Networks said, \u201cLivingston County is a prime example of a growing trend we\u2019re seeing in the U.S. where entire communities \u2014 schools, businesses, public safety officials and community leaders \u2014 are working together to ensure they are prepared as possible for emergency situations.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
