Biometric safety technology

Are there currently any fingerprint scanning safety locks for handguns?

There are biometric safes (either buttons or fingerprints) that many people store their guns in overnight (ex: Barksa). I'm not aware of any such locks that would go directly on the gun. Why would you want one? If the gun is out of the safe, it should be on you and under your control.

The smartlock......... you need to be wearing a special ring for the gun to unlock.

Reminds me of a video that required a proximity card to release a gun from a holster... I'm not sure if its something I'd really like to see. Just more things to fail when you need them most. But sure, on a safe I wouldnt mind. As long as its not time critical. I have biometric on my work computer, and if I handle a soft drink can long enough, it wont read my finger. Always annoying.
