Code 246
Spec Work
​
246 is the police code for an active shooter.
Let’s work with the local police to help make everyone safer. After all, innocent people not getting shot is something we can all agree on.
We’ll create a mobile app that helps people survive a 246 situation while simultaneously assisting first responders to deal with the situation.
The 246 App has GPS tracking to identify threats and to guide users to safety and police. The app will include family notification tools, and will feature a gunfire identifier that uses audio recognition to glean vital information for law enforcement, so they are informed about what kinds of weapons are being used, the number of shooters, rate of fire, etc.
Unfortunately, as a society, we don’t seem to want to prevent these situations. So let’s be as safe as we can in them.

The home screen is designed to be very simple and easy to use.
Using technology that "Shaazam" uses, the app can identify the gun being used by analyzing the sound of the gunfire
The app includes a GPS tracking system that reads the buildings blueprint and gives you direction to safety and way from the threat.
When downloaded onto your device, 246 also creates a widget on your lock screen for easy access to the app without having to unlock your phone screen.
