First-ever ‘smart gun’ with fingerprint unlocking system hits the market

The world’s first “smart gun” hit the market Thursday, complete with a life-saving fingerprint unlocking system that prevents “unauthorized” people such as kids and criminals from firing it.

The $1,499 gun unlocks in less than a second, using either a fingerprint or facial recognition sensor, then quickly locks again when it’s no longer in use.

It’s gonna require updates and have the potential for third party companies to lock if from use huh?

That’s a negative, Ghostrider.

That no one will buy....

When it's reliable enough for the police, it's reliable enough for me. Until then, nope.

Trash

In my Dystopian Thriller, Scabbers, the only ppl who have guns that aren't hindered by personalized Biometric signals, is corrupt Law Enforcement. $2.99 on all major ebook platforms. Link is in my bio, since adding links to tweets reduces visibility. 2A

hard pass on that garbage...

NFC would be the only way.

Pass

It’s like a Disney first. Happens every year

Great. I bet the Secret Service is eager to adopt them.

It will fail miserably

The post pushing an advert for gun control

I'm Sure this won't be abused

Fuck that

❤️

Can it make coffee

[Allah said], 'If you do good, you do good for yourselves; and if you do evil, [you do it] to yourselves.' Then when the final promise came, [We sent your enemies] to sadden your faces and to enter the temple in Jerusalem, as they entered it the first time.

Let the they/thems have those!

Nope. Garbage.

Have you ever used a fingerprint reader that you would trust with your life? How reliable does it work to unlock your cellphone? When I need to defend my life, there doesn't exist a fingerprint reader that can register 100% accuracy, in fractions of a second, with 0% failure

Will it kill anyone not authorized trying to use it?

Technology that will just stop working after a month

lol these things will not sell. Off the market in 3 months.

Last thing we need during these times is more guns.

If its like other technology where sometimes it doesnt recognize the finger, might get you killed. Ill stick to regular guns

This is what you actually want.

They'll sell about a dozen of these

Big W for ppl loving pistol whipping.

With those finger print readers. You would be better off just throwing the gun at them

If it works like phones, no thanks.

Somebody breaks in your house but you just ate popcorn.

what about ammo count?

Knowing what I know about my work iPad, I wouldn’t want to have to depend on a fingerprint scan in an emergency.

I AM THE LAWW

So what happens when mud gets on the fingerprint sensor and you’re in a crucial danger situation?

I'll totally not be buying that.

They tried this in the Fifth Element. It didn't work

World's first smart gun featuring fingerprint unlocking hits the marketA gun that only lets a specific person use it has been under development for over a decade — and it just hit the market. Read the article and underlying data. Young black males in inner cities between 12 and 19 are the vast majority of homicide victims. I’ll just leave that there for consideration. More of this please!!!! Not that many people are killed with legally-acquired weapons, right?
