Recognize the owner of such a rifle by fingerprints fingers. Even if she falls into the hands of a mentally unbalanced a person will not be able to harm others. Intellectual the fuse uses a handle-mounted infrared fingerprint scanner and can be installed on various existing firearms models. Average for authorization of the owner of the system takes a third of a second. When, if the user is not in the embedded database, fuse will block firing. In the device’s memory, you can store up to 20,000 examples of fingerprints, which allows authorization for the use of weapons entire army units. Till, however, the development of the system is difficult. Investors are not too interested in investing in a military prototype, so that developers have to subsist on private funds, writes ComputerWorld. Co-founder Charlie Miller notes that using technology would prevent killing 26 Man Adam Lanza, which occurred in Connecticut in December: “There was no way to stop the killer, because our technology is still did not appear on the market. If Miss Lanza (mother of the killer whose Lanza took advantage of the weapon) installed our technology on her weapons, nothing would have happened. “According to Miller, despite difficulties with financing, the company intends to start production of its fuses in the coming months. “Even if America suddenly stops producing weapons, we have to hands of about 300 million units. Our technology will make their safer. Our ten-year work will be justified if with the help of this fuse the life of at least one will be saved child ”
