Smart guns, which can only be fired by a verified user, may soon hit the US market after two decades of questions about reliability and concerns of hacking.
LodeStar Works, SmartGunz and Biofire are just several companies making a push into the industry with their high-tech guns – and some could be available this year.
Most smart guns are designed with fingerprint unlocking or radio frequency identification technology that enables the gun to fire only when a chip in the gun communicates with another chip worn by the user in a ring or bracelet.
