An electronic processor (305) that is configured to perform a first voiceprint analysis of first audio data of a first call from a first caller to determine a first voiceprint of the first caller, and determine that the first voiceprint matches a first previously-stored voiceprint. The first previously-stored voiceprint identifies and is associated with first previously-stored information regarding a previous call from the first caller that is anonymized so as not to include a name of the first caller or a phone number of the first caller. The electronic processor (305) receives a permission command based on a user input from the first caller to indicate that a call taker handling the first call is allowed to have access to the first previously-stored information. The electronic processor (305) outputs the first previously-stored information on a call taker device (110) in response to receiving the permission command.
A method and apparatus for identifying an object type under a person's clothing is provided herein. During operation, an anomaly is detected and imaged by a camera based on a wrinkle pattern of a person's clothing. A distance, angle, and height are determined between the camera and the anomaly. Once the distance, angle, and height are determined, multiple images are generated that model various weapons under cloth for the particular distance, angle, and height. The various generated images are compared to an image of the detected anomaly to determine an image having a best match.

Device, system and method for automatically replying to public-safety or enterprise-safety text messages is provided. A device receives, from a communication device, a text message indicative of: a given public-safety or enterprise-safety incident type; data documenting the given public-safety or enterprise-safety incident type; and a requested public-safety or enterprise-safety action associated with the given public-safety or enterprise-safety incident type.
