Company Description

Yardarm Technologies, Inc. is the leader in connected firearm technology for law enforcement, private security, and the military.

Yardarm Technologies, Inc. is headquartered in Capitola, California. The company is focused on becoming the technology leader in connected firearm technology for law enforcement, private security and the military. The company’s Yardarm Platform gives organizations a new level of awareness about what’s happening with their officers’ firearms. This lets commanders make informed, split second decisions about events on the ground – decisions that can save lives, help officers in the field do their jobs better than ever, and give crime scene analysis teams the information they need after the smoke has cleared. Yardarm has developed the most sophisticated approach to firearm event tracking and awareness available in the market. The Yardarm Sensor recognizes geo-location, movement, holstering and un-holstering, the discharge of a firearm, as well as direction of fire. These events are transmitted in real-time to the Yardarm Servers (Cloud), where the data can be delivered to Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) centers or Real-Time Crime Center (RTCC) dashboards, allowing command to use this information to support officers in the field. Custom rule-sets and provisioning tools allow commanders to establish use models that match the needs for their departments and officers. This flexibility enables a wide range of use-cases that can be applied to the sidearm an officer carries or tactical weapons used by SWAT and the military. The company’s patent pending technology delivers new levels of awareness for any organization that utilizes and manages firearms. The Yardarm solution is built on internally developed machine-to-machine (“M2M”) technologies and applications, intellectual property, and patent-pending processes.
