    摘要: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for automated camera activation are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes the actions of receiving, from a sensor, sensor data. The actions further include, based on the sensor data, determining that a firearm has been removed from a holster. The actions further include, based on determining that the firearm has been removed from the holster, generating a software-recognized event that indicates the firearm has been removed from the holster. The actions further include, in response to the software-recognized event that indicates the firearm has been removed from the holster, generating an instruction for a camera to record. The actions further include providing, for output, the instruction for the camera to record.

    摘要: A firearm holster has an outer wall, extending between a muzzle end and a breech end, defining a cavity configured to receive a firearm. A magnet and/or magnet assembly may be included, wherein the magnet is at least partly in the cavity at the muzzle end. The magnet assembly is coupled to the muzzle end and includes a magnet housing coupled to the outer wall and connected to the magnet. The holster may include a protruding wedge on a side panel of the outer wall, wherein the protruding wedge comprises a surface formed at an angle from the longitudinal holster axis. The wedge presses against a user's body to help alleviate the holster sagging. The holster may also have a spacer assembly, a portion of which can be configured to press against a user's body to achieve a desired resting angle of the holster.

    摘要: A customizable holster locking and quick release mechanism includes a holster body with interchangeable insert assemblies, interchangeable and optional spacers and shims, and adjustable and repositionable locking teeth for holding the trigger guard of multiple handgun models. The insert assembly attaches to the holster body and has an insert body with integral upper and lower body sections that support a slide lock rail having upper and lower rail sections. When assembled, the insert body and a side spacer create a receiving slot for a handgun trigger guard. The rail, guided by an angled track in the insert body, moves the locking teeth horizontally into and through the receiving slot as it displaces vertically in response to receiving a trigger guard. Magnets bias the rail depending on the presence of a handgun, encouraging the rail to lock the handgun in a lower position or release the handgun in an upper position.

    摘要: Chest worn utility pouch designed to provide easy, quick and safe access to a weapon, specifically a handgun. The pouch makes it easy for a user to grab, install and wear on their body and provides secure and quick access to the weapon stored inside. The pouch is supported by a neck lanyard for suspension and a waist lanyard for securing to the body. Requires no fine motor skills to operate thus offsetting the adverse effects of adrenaline. The rear pocket for a communications device affords the wearer hands free communications with the police, thus reducing the chances of criminal prosecution or civil penalty, post incident. The pouch conceals the firearm from view, thus allowing for possible de-escalation. Further, the present invention is designed to fit inside most gun safes or hides so that firearms are immediately deployable in a safe, but expeditious manner.

    摘要: A “false draw” and/or “shots fired” alert system for use with a weapon holster. The system generates one or more signals when a weapon is drawn from the holster and/or when shots are fired. The signal(s) may include an audible signal and/or a wireless signal. The audible signal identifies the type of weapon drawn (e.g., a handgun, TASER, stun gun) and may include other sounds such as oral commands. The wireless signal may be a text, email, alert, or other notification to one or more remote devices indicating the specific type of weapon has been drawn and/or fired, and may include other information such as GPS location and owner of the holster.

    摘要: A holster for receiving and withdrawing a handgun has a proximal wall portion with a handgun retention mechanism thereon. The mechanism having a first lever with a tab portion for actuation and release of a trigger guard, the lever having a snap fit into a lever region without a separate pin. A belt engaging member covers the lever region capturing the first lever therein. If a second retention mechanism is used, another lever with a tab portion is positioned so the tabs are stacked, depressing one also depresses the tab behind it, such that both mechanisms are released. Overmolded polymer layers in the holster body provides a softer interior handgun engagement surfaces. The holster body is split forwardly with a threaded fastener for clamping onto the handgun. No holster body is beneath or rearward of the tab portion, configured as a thumb button, allowing smooth transition to gripping the handgun.

    摘要: A holster for a weapon such as an electric discharge weapon is made from two pieces joined together to form the holster end wall. The holster right piece has a right end wall part that is molded with both thin wall and also selected thick wall areas that are intentionally molded as thick wall areas. The holster left piece has a left end wall part that is molded to have both thin wall and also selected thick wall areas that are intentionally molded as thick wall areas. When assembled, thin wall areas of the left end wall part overlap thin wall areas of the right end wall part to thereby form a first thick wall region of the holster end wall. Thick wall areas of the right piece end wall part interfit with thick wall areas of the left piece end wall part to form a second thick wall region of the holster end wall.
