Fingerprint Recognition for Gun Owners

• By
• Damien Palantino
• Erik Eliassen

Current Shortfalls

• Unnecessary violence involving guns murder,
  suicide, accidental killings, shooting rampages
• Very easy to get and use a firearm without proper
  registration

3
Improvement

• Equipping all guns with a finger recognition
  system on the handle of the gun for owners use
  only at registration
• Eliminating illegal gun distribution, unnecessary
  murders and suicides, and most importantly use by
  minors

How Does it Works

• Gun is not useable until the handle of the gun is
  coded with the owners fingerprint
• Fingerprint Coding occurs at time of registration
• The gun recognizes only the owners fingerprint
• Gun will continue to work for the following
  thirty seconds after owners fingers are removed
  from handle

5
Drawbacks

• Implementation of fingerprint system would
  require much cooperation from the U.S.
  government, Law enforcement agencies, gun
  distributors, gun purchasers as well as gun
  associations such as NRA
• Guns produced prior to this innovation would
  remain accessible to the public
• High financial backing for innovation nationwide

6
Value of Improvement

• Not so much monetary
• Make households safer for children
• Make streets safer for general public from
  criminals
• Households with children would not feel reluctant
  to purchase guns for protection
