David and I walked around this newest, remarkably bad idea iteration the other day. Shotgun Joe wonders why his thumbprint will open a cell phone, yet this tech isn\u2019t available on firearms to prevent unauthorized use.
\nThat this ID method is useless if wet or dirty has been addressed by the inclusion of a PIN pad backup.
\nNo, really.<\/p>\n

Company Pushes Smart Gun with Backup PIN Pad in Case of Lock Failure<\/h3>\n

AWR Hawkins<\/strong><\/p>\n

LodeStar is pushing a smart gun in the United States that unlocks via a fingerprint reader but is equipped with a PIN pad for backup in the case the gun fails to unlock.<\/p>\n

Reuters reported on the LodeStar, noting the \u201cfingerprint reader unlocks the gun in microseconds.\u201d However, Reuters also pointed out the LodeStar fingerprint reader system apparently tends toward the same problems other fingerprint reader smart guns have faced. Namely, \u201cIt may not work when wet or in other adverse conditions.\u201d<\/p>\n

Joe Biden has called for smart guns that read fingerprints and unlock like smart phones, Breitbart News reported August 10, 2019.<\/p>\n

Biden then held up a cell phone and talked about how it is activated \u201cwith a thumb print.\u201d He then asked why guns ican\u2019t have the same biometric reader for activation. He did not explain that if you get your thumb wet\u2013even with water\u2013the biometric reader on your cell phone will not work.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Let us know when the USSS carries them to protect the important people. Like Joe. Thanks, David.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
