The future

Now, Syeda and her team are working to improve the device in hopes of having the device be implemented into society in the future.

“The team and I are currently working on further developing the GSM module so that we can maximize security and eliminate as many chances of a mass shooting as possible,” Syeda said. “My hopes are to, obviously, showcase this product in the future and then either license the SecureGun to gun manufacturing company or make SecureGun into its very own company. I also hope to see tons of support for the people of this country and it’s government. But above all, the main goal is to save at least save one life with this product because no human should ever have to fear or witness a mass shooting.”

Faizan believes that future of the country depends on the youth being aware of gun safety and taking action.

“SecureGun was innovated as a result of out-of-the-box thinking of youths who’re disturbed by misuse of guns,” Faizan said via email. “This is their way to say – there could be an alternate solution to this madness, without taking anyone’s right to own a gun. I feel everyone should take a good look at this innovation. Think – What is the harm if you have a gun which locks itself in school zone? Nothing, right? But the benefit is that it provides great comforts to all parents out there who send their kids to school to study. When a gun violence occur, a bullet doesn’t ask if victim is a pro-gun or anti-gun. I am sure sooner or later this innovation will catch everyone’s attention who’re concerned about their kid’s safety while still wanting to have a right to own a gun.”
