Are these and the numerous similar devices just memery?

I don't see the point, personally. It's the equivalent of a png file that you made in paint by scribbling different colors around, and saved to a flash drive to use as a 2FA file.
If by memery you are asking if they don't work, yes they are memery. They are no more secure than your regular windows logon screen. It wouldn't be hard to program your own that would work with any old USB stick and it would probably be more secure.

No more secure than a windows login screen?
Can't you do quite a bit with these things?

Explain to me how this would be any more complex than an encrypted flash drive with a paint file that I described above, to be used as 2FA?

Honestly no idea, but how would your paint file be used as 2fa for web services like the yubikey is?
are these physical botnets?

Can't you just create one yourself?

Not him, but there's no reason it couldn't be used the same way you could use it as a 2nd factor of authorization in Keepass.

I don't understand how is this secure.

Fingerprints are for identification, not authentication
