The sensors triangulate and almost immediately, a dot appears on the screen to show where Perry is and the information could pop up on every officer’s smartphone and pad in the stadium, so they know where to go. If cameras are hooked up, they could get a picture of the sniper, beam it through satellite to the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and if he’s in the system, police have the guy’s name and an address within minutes.”
