    The UK based company, Radio Physics Solutions has creted a hybrid radar/AI based scanner which can detected 3D printed guns from afar. Already several large organizations have expressed interest in the new scanning device, which include the US Department of Defense.

    This seems more like a technology which determines shapes of an object, am I wrong? Radar will determine a shape, but technically you could 3d print a gun that looks nothing like a gun, right?

    This should work for a while, until people get creative and find ways around this technology. It's not full-proof. Nothing ever is.
