Safety disarm for firearm
First Claim
1. A firearm device comprising:
- a firearm;
a firearm subsystem,at least one sensor, andan electronic control system, the electronic control system including a processor, a memory, and executable instructions stored in the memory;
wherein the at least one sensor generates data on a target at which the firearm is aimed;
wherein the memory stores processor executable instructions for enabling the firearm;
wherein the memory stores a memory map of at least one data on a permitted target for enabling the firing of the firearm;
wherein the processor determines if the sensor generated target data matches a permitted target data;
wherein the processor enables the firearm subsystem if the sensor generated target data matches the permitted target data.

Abstract
A firearm is provided with an electronic control system which monitors and controls the firearm. The electronic control system is coupled to a lower level system which may be one or more parts employed in the discharge of a firearm; or an assemblage of parts that configure the firearm into an armed or disarmed state of operation. Image data on a target, firearm system status data, and/or other data may be detected by sensors or collected, under the direction of and processed by the electronic control system. The electronic control system provides control signals to a firearm subsystem adapted to the lower level system to in response to a detected condition to allow operation of the lower level system to operate the firearm. A touch-sensitive screen may allow a firearm operator and an arm/disarm control interface may allow a remote operator or service to monitor and control the firearm.

60. A method for controlling a firearm configured with a sensor comprising:
-
storing in a memory of an electronic control system a memory map, the electronic control system being associated with the firearm and configured to enable the firearm, the memory map comprising at least one data on a permitted target for enabling the firing of the firearm; determining if target data generated by the sensor matches a permitted target data; and enabling the firearm if the sensor generated target data matches the permitted target data. - View Dependent Claims (61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68)
