The Department of Homeland Security announced plans to spend up to $20 million by March 2027 on the devices, which are manufactured by Compliant Technologies. When activated, the gloves deliver a pain stimulus upon contact with a person's skin to de-escalate fights and gain compliance in detention facilities. Homan stated that the gloves are not ready for immediate rollout because federal agents still require training on how to use them.
