When people try to link everything with the Internet, they can't link to the door locks that need to be frequently touched and used every day. Since the first lock and key were invented in the capital of Niyam, the ancient capital of Assyria, around 612 BC, the technology of locks and keys has not changed fundamentally. Recently, however, an electronic lock that was turned on by a smartphone appeared. Will it replace locks and keys made of steel and iron?
Electronic lock opened with a mobile phone
When smartphones become indispensable companions to humans, all of this will change dramatically. Citigroup analyst Jim Suva discussed this topic in his public report in November 2014 with his colleague Assia Mechat. They believe that smart device vendors must develop a huge new business—physical security—locks and keys made of steel and iron—that will be replaced by electronic locks that are turned on by the user's smartphone.
To this end, Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak also used an Apple phone as a key to enter and exit a locked hotel room. In fact, at least since 2010, Apple has been developing related key systems. Another technology giant, Google, is also focusing on developing business that “contacts†people twice a day. According to Larry Page, CEO of Google, Google has been looking for "beautiful and intuitive services and technologies that make people incredibly effective, so they use it twice a day, just like users. It's like using a toothbrush. In fact, not many objects are used twice a day. But people use the door lock every day for at least eight times. You have to go in and out of the house, car, garage, office and even many public places. Meet, if you can talk to them, what a wonderful and intuitive experience!"
Solve many problems
Have you stood at the door many times, but found that you can't find the key? Do you have a heavy shopping bag with both hands for a lot of times, and you can't wait for a "sesame to open the door" to open the door lock? Are you visiting friends many times, but when you first come, your friend can't enter your home, you can only kneel at your door and you are anxious like an ant on a hot pot? These smart locks about the door lock can be solved. According to David Li, CEO of Wellpros International, which developed smart locks, and co-founder Steven Liu, smart door locks can achieve "touch unlocking" or "mobile phone control" "user rights management" "live view" "Remote authorization", "smart alarm" and other functions - you can unlock your mobile phone by tapping the mobile phone, you can unlock the Bluetooth at close range, and you can remotely authorize your friends, he can relax in your home. Tea is waiting for you, and with the administrator's permission, you can authorize other family members' mobile phones or cancel the authorization.
This smart door lock, called wpekey, also provides attendance management and a very intimate real-time view of the door lock status. Authorized mobile phones can check who is in and out of the door through the mobile app whenever and wherever possible. Colleagues punch card attendance "small lazy" without any shape, you can also report or view the status of the door lock at any time, no longer worry about going out without locking the door, you can also see when the family with the key will go home, this will make it easier for parents to understand the child Whether it is safe to get home.
Safety performance is also very high
Of course, the most fundamental appeal of locks is security, and smart door locks are no exception. When you open the door with a password, this kind of smart door lock needs to distinguish the real password in any combination of code input, so you don't have to worry about password leakage. It also has the security warning function. When the door lock is disassembled by any external force, it will turn on the speed. The response mechanism, the door lock will alarm for the first time, and push the alarm message to the APP to notify the main mobile phone and the authorized mobile phone, triggering a one-button alarm help function to prevent the family property from being infringed. When the smart lock battery is used up, the mobile power charging interface can also be used to power the lock.
Compared with the traditional key unlocking, the advantage of the smart lock is that it does not need to carry the key, or the password can be changed easily, without directly changing the lock or re-keying. Compared with traditional door locks or password locks, the key function of smart door locks is to open the door directly through the mobile phone through technologies such as Bluetooth and smart phones and supporting applications. At present, Google has entered the market through the $3.2 billion acquisition of Nest, and Apple has already begun selling door lock systems and mobile phones that control door locks.
It is predicted that this business may grow faster than mobile payment applications and is expected to grow into an industry valued at $3.5 billion by 2019. Today, Apple and Google are paying attention to this market, and are seriously considering future specific actions, and China's smart companies are actively deploying this field. Undoubtedly, the door lock is undergoing changes, and more and more convenient application products will bring a wonderful experience to consumers.
