IF ATTACKED AUTOMATICALLY SOUNDS AN ALARM & SPRAYS A UV BASED FORENSIC STAIN THAT LINKS CRIMINAL TO THEIR CRIMESCENE
About
A normal door security chain does not provide evidence of an attack. This device does! Installed at entry points around your home, when in use if attacked will automatically sound a high decibel alarm to alert neighbours and passers-by but at the same time sprays the attacker with a TOTALLY NON-TOXIC UV based forensic marking fluid. This stain remains for weeks and is easily identified by police using simple UV (CSI) torches. Or if the attacker frequents premises that use UV lighting such as night clubs and bars the spatter is clearly visible. The forensic evidence collected by police forces, and other law enforcement agencies once analysed puts the intruder at the scene of THEIR crime. As the device can only be activated by definitively attacking the door, there is a clear chain of evidence. The device is currently installed by a registered installer network here in the UK ensuring that all unique DNA trace information is held on a conforming national database which is available to police authorities. Once the unique forensic component is identified this information can be used to identify the door it was registered to, and this forensic evidence can be used by law enforcement to track a criminal back to a specific crime scene anywhere in the world. We are currently seeking funding to enable the change from gas to battery powered. Being battery powered opens up the ability to develop a modular device that can include an impact camera.
Key Benefits
Initially 1000 gas powered alarms were manufactured and the majority were sold to police forces nationwide and deployed in a variety of high risk applications such as domestic violence, honour based violence, witness protection, Asian gold theft and for the more vulnerable members of society to ease their fear of unlawful intrusion into their homes and to this day no recorded offences have taken place at any addresses that have this device installed and forensically registered.
Applications
Home and family security.
