1. A system for marking an individual with an identifying substance, comprising:
- a spray delivery device configured to release a pressurized substance in response to an activation signal;
an activation device communicatively coupled to the spray delivery device via a network and configured to transmit the activation signal to the spray delivery device;
an activation switch communicatively coupled to the activation device via the network, wherein the activation switch comprises a graphical user interface and is configured to trigger the activation device in response to a user command or an event;
a power supply, configured to provide power to the activation device, the spray delivery device or to both the activation device and the spray delivery device; and
wherein the activation device is configured to automatically transmit the activation signal to the spray delivery device in response to the activation switch being triggered by the user command or event, via a control system.
