Gun Safety Technologies - A Review of Smart Guns & Personalized Firearms (Mixed media product)

Book & CD-ROM. When such an issue with deep and powerful cultural resonance as firearms is given the full attention of the nation, the challenges involved with confronting the complex interconnectedness of law, public safety, constitutional rights, policy, technology, market forces, and other concerns seem only amplified. With careful consideration, however, untangling the various components of the issue is possible, and an investigation of technology can be accomplished with minimal diversion into the other realms. This book examines existing and emerging gun safety technologies and their availability and use to provide a comprehensive perspective on firearms with integrated advanced safety technologies. These firearms are known by various terms such as smart guns, user-authorised handguns, childproof guns, and personalised firearms. A "personalised firearm" can be understood to utilise integrated components that exclusively permit an authorised user or set of users to operate or fire the gun and automatically deactivate it under a set of specific circumstances, reducing the chances of accidental or purposeful use by an unauthorised user. Accompanying this book is a CD-ROM examining the Smart Gun Technology Project and updates.
