The locations of microphones used to detect gunshots have been kept hidden from police and the public. A WIRED analysis of leaked coordinates confirms arguments critics have made against the technology.

Whether the mics would pick it up would depend on if you use supersonic bullets. They would sense that they are shutting off for some reason though.

Edit: If you shoot one but another is in range to pick it up then it would. This is starting to sound like a cs problem.

Can we zoom in on the sound and enhance it to triangulate the shooter’s IP address on the Unix mainframe?

Youll need to write a gooey in visual basic first

If two of us type at the same time on the same keyboard, we can work twice as fast!
