Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention generally relates to a safety system for a smart gun and more specifically relates to the smart gun that prevents the gun to fire a bullet at a first position and activates the gun to fire a bullet at the second position in order to prevent mass shootings at public places.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

A public mass shooting is an incident involving four or more victims being shot with guns in an indiscriminate manner. It has evolved as the biggest curse of modern society in general and American society in particular. A study published in ‘Time’ magazine estimated that 31% of public mass shootings occur in the US, although it has only 5% of the world's population. However, the study shows a proportional relationship but fails to prove that gun ownership causes mass shootings. Forensic psychologist Stephen Ross cites extreme anger and the notion of working for a cause as primary explanations for mass shootings rather than mental illness which has been rarely a reason for this heinous act. While there are many inventions made to ensure that only bonafide owner is able to use a gun, there does not exist any system to prevent a lawful owner from spraying bullets at the innocent victim in public place. The present invention addresses this problem in terms of limiting the functionality of the firearms in case of its use for mass shootings.
Several devices have been developed to address this need for gun safety. For instance, various gun safety devices are known which use finger or handprint data in identifying authorized users and accordingly enabling operation. Further, some prior art discusses gun safety via the use of voice recognition circuitry for identifying authorized users and accordingly enabling operation.
Some prior art has been involved in the area of fingerprint scanning and other smart gun operations, wherein the following patents are herein incorporated by reference for their supportive teachings, wherein U.S. Pat. No. 6,317,508, granted Nov. 13, 2013, teaches a scanning capacitive semiconductor fingerprint detector.
Therefore, there is a need for a smart gun safety system, wherein the safety gun is programmed to prevent shooting in places like schools, theaters, and public spaces. Further, there is a need to include GPS and camera with the safety gun in order to determine if a gun can be fired in a particular location.
In such a scenario, it has become more important to address the issue of mass shootings with respect to firearms instead of perpetrators. Several prior attempts were taken in terms of preventing unauthorized users from operating a firearm instead of unauthorized use.
All of these conventional methods/systems or a computer program product, and some other method/system presently known in the art have had some flaws in design or mechanism and lacks precision. Most of the existing devices are too expensive and time consuming to be practical for most users. Some shortfalls of the existing method/system or a computer program product include manual interference. In light of this, there is a need for a method/system or a computer program product that overcomes these constraints.
In the light of these facts, it is of great advantage to the safety system of the smart gun and its occupants that there is a system to accurately tell the location of the gun via GPS technology, a video camera to check with the surroundings. There is a need for a safety system for smart guns that are designed to prevent mass shootings in public places.
Further, there is also a need of a safety system for smart guns that prevent the gun to fire a bullet at a first position and activate the gun to fire a bullet at the second position in order to prevent mass shootings at public places and in order to make safety decisions without human intervention at all.
None of the above inventions and patents, taken either singly or in combination, is seen to describe the present invention as claimed. Thus, a safety system for smart guns that solving the aforementioned problems is desired.
Features and advantages of the invention will be set forth in the description that follows, and in part will be apparent from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. The advantages of the invention will be realized and attained by the structure particularly pointed out in the written description and claims hereof as well as the appended drawings.
It is to be understood that both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory and are intended to provide further explanation of the invention as claimed.
The present invention addresses the issues as discussed above.

FIG. 1 shows a schematic diagram of a smart gun incorporating GPS 10, Microprocessor 11, a motor 13, trigger lock 14, Pinhole camera as according to the present invention.
Referring now in more detail to the drawings of FIG. 1 describes a perspective view of a smart gun, wherein the smart gun includes a global positioning system (GPS) 10 according to the present invention, wherein the GPS is connected to the microprocessor 11. The GPS 10 is used to detect an accurate location of the smart gun and send the signal to the microprocessor 11. Further, the Pinhole camera 12 below the gun barrel sees exactly where the smart gun aims to shot the bullet or about the target and send the information about the aimed target to the microprocessor 11, wherein the target can be an armed/unarmed human, any animal. Based on the received information from the GPS and the camera, the Microprocessor 11 i.e the brain of the gun loaded with artificially intelligent image processing software, decide to block/unblock the trigger in order to prevent mass shooting or allow/prevent the smart gun to fire bullet.
For Example, Any moment of time, the microprocessor 11 receives the gun location details from GPS 10 as public places like schools or cinema, or any other public area, the microprocessor 11 send a signal to the locking mechanism of the smart gun in order to lock the trigger of the smart gun. The next layer of security mechanism comes through camera 12, wherein the camera sends the information of the aimed target by the smart gun to the microprocessor 11, wherein the camera includes an artificial intelligent image processing algorithm in order to check images authorized to be shot. Based on the received information by the GPS and the camera the microprocessor sends signals to the locking mechanism of the smart gun in order to lock/unlock the trigger of the smart gun.
As such, the mounted cameras may be embedded with motion sensors, thermal sensors, and voice detection sensors or alike. The sensor may be adapted to sense acoustic/sonic/barometric pressure (and changes therein) (e.g., acoustic pressure detected from a ultrasonic piezo sensor or Piezo crystal coated metal), at least one InfraRed (IR) sensor to sense muzzle flash and/or body heat (e.g., changes relative to a background, differentiation of IR signals, etc.), and a Nitrogen sensor to sense nitrogen found in the nitro celluloid used in single-stage accelerants and nitroglycerin found in dual-stage accelerants).
In an exemplary embodiment, the camera may include an acoustic sensor that may comprise MEMS microphones, which have an omnidirectional pickup responsive equally to sounds coming from any direction. In other aspects, the acoustic sensor(s) comprise multiple microphones disposed in an array to form a directional response, or a beam pattern.
According to another embodiment of the present invention, a motor 13, wherein the motor is installed in the gun and helps the trigger lock 14, to lock and unlock the trigger, based on the information received from the microprocessor. The microprocessor 11 receives information from GPS 10 about the prohibited places for shootings like school or cinema, wherein the information of one or more prohibited places is stored in a memory. In case of the location of the smart gun is received via GPS by the controller, wherein the received information of the smart gun is the non-prohibited location like streets or forests, in the response, the trigger mechanism will not take any action and keep the trigger in the same unlock position. According to an embodiment of the present invention, In case when the smart gun aims a target to shoot, the safety system activates the pinhole camera 12 which informs microprocessor 11 to match the database of the images under prohibited locations. For instance, a human with raised hands or congregation of human beings has been put under the restricted target to shoot and such target being seen by camera 12 will help microprocessor 11 to instruct triggering mechanism to lock the trigger through the help of trigger lock 14.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, where the mounting board of the pin-hole camera 12 has been fixed, wherein the Camera 12 processes the image in order to determine the threat to instruct the gun through the AI image processing weather to shoot or not. If need be, as per the smart gun sophistication requirements plurality of cameras can be mounted on the board like a thermal camera or so.
In an embodiment, the thermal camera installed on the gun, may determine the plurality of people present in the vicinity of the gun holder. Hence, the system may recognize the crowd based place easily and furthermore may act according to the direction of the face of the crowd. In an alternate, the camera may also recognize the expressions of the person in front of the camera of the gun, based on which the microprocessor may determine that the person in front of the target is an innocent or a criminal person.
The processor can execute instructions within the device, including instructions stored in the memory. The processor may be implemented as a chipset of chips that include separate and multiple analog and digital processors.
Processor may communicate with a user through control interface and display interface coupled to a display.

The display interface may comprise appropriate circuitry for driving the display to present graphical and other information to a user. The control interface may receive commands from a user and convert them for submission to the processor. In addition, an external interface may be provided in communication with processor, so as to enable near area communication of device with other devices. External interface may provide, for example, for wired communication in some implementations, or for wireless communication in other implementations, and multiple interfaces may also be used.
The memory stores information within the computing device. The memory can be implemented as one or more of a computer-readable medium or media, a volatile memory unit or units, or a non-volatile memory unit or units. Expansion memory may also be provided and connected to device through expansion interface, which may include, for example, a SIMM (Single In Line Memory Module) card interface. Such expansion memory may provide extra storage space for device, or may also store applications or other information for device. Specifically, expansion memory may include instructions to carry out or supplement the processes described above, and may include secure information also. Thus, for example, expansion memory may be provide as a security module for device, and may be programmed with instructions that permit secure use of device. In addition, secure applications may be provided via the SIMM cards, along with additional information, such as placing identifying information on the SIMM card in a non-hackable manner.
