Windows 10: VeriMark™ Guard USB-C Fingerprint Key PC unlock

I recently received a VeriMark™ Guard USB-C Fingerprint Key, and I have it set up on my account, it will log me in to my account but I was wondering if it could log me into my PC, no password or PIN, just fingerprint and security key? I have my Microsoft account linked to my PC and had it set up on my PC, it recognizes my finger but the windows hello option for fingerprint login says there is no compatible fingerprint reader., but there is no security key option on lock screen, is there anything else I need to do or is it just not possible?

Can I use a USB fingerprint reader to unlock bitlocker on Windows 10 Pro?

I'd like to use a USB fingerprint reader to authenticate with bitlocker - i.e. unlock my machine when bitlocker password request screen is shown when booting into Windows.

Something like a tiny rectangular USB fingerprint dongle from:

• Kensington - Verimark - https://www.kensington.com/en-gb/p/...s-hello-and-fido-u2f-for-universal-2nd-facto/
  
• BENSS - Benss
  
• PQI - http://www.pqigroup.com/prod_in.aspx?mnuid=1286&modid=138&prodid=1472
  

...All available on amazon, for example.

Assuming I could, then of course, for setting up I'd have to log in with my bitlocker password to get into Windows to then do the setup for next time I boot Windows.

Is it possible to setup Windows bitlocker to recognise my fingerprint using a USB finger print reader?

I have Windows 10 Pro 64bit on 3 machines that I'd like to use this fingerprint unlocking on:

• Panasonic Toughpad MkIII Intel x86-64 i5 vPro, Windows 10 Pro 64bit (which I think has the TPM module - though I don't know if this is necessary to fulfil my question)
  
• MacBook Air 11" 2015, 8Gb i7 2.2GHz (for Windows 10 Pro 64 bit on BootCamp)
  
• MacBook Pro 2016 15" retina/touchbar/thunderbolt 3 port x 4, 16Gb i7 quad core. (for Windows 10 Pro 64 bit on BootCamp)
  

It would appear that these work with Windows Hello. But I don't know if Windows Hello includes Bitlocker - i.e. Bitlocker is a part of Windows Hello or if they are 2 separate things.

Thank you for reading. I've already searched here and am perhaps surprised that the question had not already been asked, it would appear.
