‘Smart’ Guns With Fingerprint Sensor, Security Code Headed To US Market

“Smart” handguns designed to limit who can shoot are expected to hit the booming U.S. gun market this year, targeting a surge in shooting deaths at a time when federal lawmakers remain deadlocked over any new restrictions.

Questions about reliability and political battles have dogged the technology for decades, but proponents say it’s an opportunity to prevent children, criminals or people considering self-harm from pulling the trigger.

Whether these lethal weapons will be accepted by buyers, perform their intended role in real life, or deliver on their promises to improve gun safety, however, will likely take years to finally be answered.

“I don’t have a crystal ball to judge whether it’s well-balanced, poorly-balanced, or ends up being like other smart guns of the past — kind of silly,” said Adam Skaggs, chief adviser and policy director of gun control advocacy group Giffords.

The system from entrepreneur Tom Holland’s SmartGunz company uses RFID chips — similar to the transmitters many people use in their cars to pay for tolls — installed inside the ring.

When the shooter holds the gun with a hand wearing a special ring, the safety mechanism unlocks, allowing the gun to fire.

The Netherlands sees an application to protect police officers who may have their pistols stolen by suspects. Or parents worry that their kids will find their guns.

Surfaces of the Motorola Edge 50 Ultra with Snapdragon 8S Gen 3

Early this week, renders of the Edge 50 Fusion appeared, and Motorola has previously stated that the Edge 50 Pro will ship on April 3. The highest-end smartphone in the Edge 50 series, the Edge 50 Ultra, has now been shown in renders.

The phone is depicted in the renderings in peach fuzz and black with a vegan leather finish, while sisal, a beige color, will have a brushed surface. As opposed to the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 in the Pro variant and the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 in the Edge 50 Fusion, the phone is reportedly powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 SoC.

A 50MP primary camera, an ultra-wide camera, and a periscope telephoto camera with a 5x optical zoom are all included in the Motorola Edge 50 Ultra’s feature set. Additionally, there is a triple LED flash on the right side and a laser autofocus feature above the periscope lens.

Although the phone’s display, battery, and charging specifications are yet unknown, the Edge 50 Pro is said to include 12GB of RAM and support both 50W and 125W wired and wireless charging.

It is anticipated that this will launch as the Motorola X50 Ultra in China. It is unclear if the India launch may be expected on the same day as the rest of the Edge 50 series phones, even if this is scheduled to go official on April 3.
