Our Vision

Our vision is to save people’s lives by preventing friendly fire. We envisage many modern hunters and law enforcement agencies joining our desire for safer environments.

We aim to enhance situational awareness capabilities while hunting and among law enforcement agencies.

What Makes Us Unique?

SafeShoot assists in preventing friendly fire in various environmental conditions without the need for line of sight, by an automatic and autonomous system based on advanced technology.

The system automatically alerts shooters when there is a high risk of friendly fire situations. This will assist in making hunting activities safer without changing behavior and in enhancing safety of law enforcement forces as well as improve cooperation between those forces.
