Gun owners will soon be able to use wireless technology to engage or disengage the safety on firearms.

The product from Yardarm Technologies can let owners disable the firearm – wherever they are located. It is called Yardarm Safety First.

When their firearm is lifted or handled by an unauthorized person, owners are notified. The solution also provides geo-location tracking.

“Suppose you and your family are on vacation, and your firearm is back at home. Wouldn’t you want to know in real time if an intruder or worse, a child is handling your gun?” Bob Stewart, CEO of Yardarm Technologies, was quoted by TMCnet. “With Yardarm, you could immediately disable the firearm, notify local law enforcement, and maintain location awareness. We want the gun owner to stay connected to their firearm, no matter what the circumstance.”

The technology does not let guns to be fired from a remote location.

“With this technology the gun can ‘talk’ to a phone app, thereby permitting the gun owner to view information about the firearm remotely,” ABC News explained in a recent report. The product will be available in early 2014.

Also, the product got some praises from anti-gun violence activists.

Joshua Horwitz, executive director of the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence, told ABC News, "There is a lot of interesting technology out there. The problem is the manufacturers haven't incorporated any of it. If you have remote access, you have to be able to engage or disengage – that technology is not remarkable. What is remarkable is that it is widespread and no one is using it. Any type of thing where you can keep your gun locked is good, but it's not good that this isn't an option out there now."

"Anything that would disable a gun so that the gun owner is the only one who could fire it is a very important step in the right direction," Elliot Fineman, CEO of the National Gun Victims Action Council, added in a statement to ABC News.

In addition, the New Jersey Institute of Technology is developing a gun that will not work unless it is in the hand of the owner.
