Facial Recognition Smart Gun Now Available in US

Colorado-based Biofire Tech is taking orders for a smart gun enabled by facial-recognition technology, which can also be enabled by a fingerprint reader. The first consumer-ready versions of the 9mm handgun could be shipped to customers who pre-ordered as soon as the fourth quarter of this year, with the standard $1,499 model possibly available by the second quarter of 2024. The gun is designed to avoid accidental shootings by children, reduce suicides, protect police from gun grabs, or render lost and stolen guns useless.
