Every 30 minutes, a child is injured or killed by a firearm in the United States. That's why 18 year-old inventor, Kai Kloepfer, developed a handgun with a built-in fingerprint reader that only fires when the owner is holding it. But is it enough to help change America's gun culture? A personalized gun, or smart gun, is a firearm that includes a safety feature or features that allow it to fire only when activated by an authorized user. These safety features can prevent misuse, accidental shootings, gun thefts, use of the weapon against the owner, and self-harm. Smart guns distinguish between authorized users and unauthorized users in several different ways, including the use of RFID chips or other proximity tokens, fingerprint recognition, magnetic rings, or mechanical locks.Related to smart guns are other smart firearms safety devices such as biometric or RFID activated accessories and safes.
Gun owners Smart firearms safety technology is intended to prevent the accidental use and misuse of firearms by children and teens, as well as reducing accidental discharges or the use of a firearm against its owner if the firearm is stolen or taken away. Smart guns may also reduce incidents of suicide by unauthorized users of a firearm. Note that smart guns do not prevent authorized users from committing crimes. However, smart guns with locationized gun circuitry could prevent authorized users from using their guns to commit crimes in designated locations. |
