In the movie Judge Dredd each gun will scan the identity of the Judge who uses it before it can be fired. With this issue it is used by individuals that should not be avoided. In the United States there are more and more murders due to the misuse of guns and last month the Biofire gun was launched as one of the solutions.
Bionfire is a 9mm pistol equipped with a face scan and fingerprint security system. It is locked to a special dock with a face scanner, the Biofire can only be removed from storage if the owner's face is detected. To shoot, fingerprints are first scanned with a scanner placed on the gun handle.
With Biofire, a parent's gun for example cannot be stolen and used by a child to shoot at school as happened in various incidents such as Columbine. The Bionfire smart gun sells for $1,499 (~RM6657) apiece.
