The Smart Tech Challenges Foundation has launched its Race to Reliability Challenge, featuring the following innovators competing for a $2,000 cash prize:

Jonathan Mossberg of iGun Technology Corp, Tom Lynch of Safe Gun Technology, Kai Kloepfer of Ægen Technologies, Will Murphy & Rob Harvey of GunGuardian, and Omer Kyani of Sentinl. Each innovator team is developing a smart gun or smart gun accessory in the hopes of bringing to market technologies that can promote firearms safety and prevent accidental shootings, suicides, gun thefts, and misuse of firearms.

From RFID technology, which secures a firearm by using wireless radio frequency, to fingerprint access, which means the firearm recognizes your unique fingerprints, our innovators are bringing the future to you. But they need input from people who are interested in the benefits of reliable smart firearms safety technology. The winning innovator will win a $2,000 cash prize that will go towards funding the further refinement of their prototype.
