Keys are so 20th century. Smart locks offer security and flexibility, allowing you to control access to your home using your phone. Smart locks are connected with different communication protocols. Usually there are these three: Bluetooth, WiFi and z-wave, all three of them are wireless communication protocols. Next we will focus on the Bluetooth lock. Bluetooth, a wireless communication technology standard used to allow fixed and mobile devices to exchange information over short distances to form personal local area networks. It uses short-wave UHF radio waves to communicate via the ISM frequency band between 2.4 and 2.485 GHz. Bluetooth works by sandwiching data between dozens of short-wavelength UHF (ultra-high frequency) channels using radios that hop the frequency spectrum. The Bluetooth lock can be connected directly to your mobile phone or tablet. You don't need any type of central device to act as a translator as the phone will actually speak the Bluetooth language, meaning you can communicate with it without the need for any type of interface. It's convenient if your smart home wishes end with a lock, but the hub grants you the ability to control multiple connected devices from a single app, which is more convenient than dividing your home control into various device-specific apps. One disadvantage of the Bluetooth lock is its range, which is usually limited to 150 feet or less, so you must need to be in close proximity to the door in order to unlock it. Controlling your locks is enough when you're at home, but go too far and you'll lose contact. Other than that, it's very efficient and requires little maintenance.

Your data is encrypted, not invisible. Connectivity can also be an issue. What if your WIFI is paralyzed? What if your lock loses power? These errors can turn these easy systems into a big headache.

A brief introduction to the history of RFID technology. In 1983, American inventor Charles Walton granted the first patent (US patent) using the term RFID (Radio Frequency Identification). Although many people actually contributed to and helped the invention of RFID technology, Charles Walton obtained 10 patents for RFID-related equipment. What is RFID lock RFID is an acronym for radio frequency identification. This refers to a non-contact technology in which the electromagnetic field in the card reader automatically recognizes the digital data encoded in the RFID tag. RFID lock is a key card access lock, commonly used in enterprises, hospitals, hotels, dormitories, gym and other commercial places.Take the RFID locker lock as an example. Its key (usually in the form of a card or fob) is a tag. The working principle of RFID locking First, the code of the key card contains the data on the RFID chip contained in the card, and then it is connected to the computer system. Locks, key cards, and computer systems all work together using encrypted data sent over radio frequency. When you have a card and a certain distance from the lock, the key card, lock and computer system will exchange the required data at this time, and as long as the data matches, you will gain access. The benefits of RFID lock The rfid key card replaces the mechanical key, it does not need to touch the lock, and is more convenient than the mechanical key. RFID key cards are more difficult to copy than traditional keys, so RFID locks are more secure. And RFID locks can be installed on a wide range of doors and furniture, suitable for use in many different businesses and applications.

Biometric cabinet locks or smart cabinet locks are devices that allow you to unlock your cabinet with the combination of a fingerprint and PIN. Biometric cabinet locks use personally identifiable information instead of traditional keys. They use a thermal or optical scanner to store the fingerprints of anyone who is authorised to open your locker. Once the scanner determines that you are an authorised user, it prompts you to enter a PIN to unlock the locker. How does biometric lock work? Biometric terminology refers to the use of physical characteristics to identify a person. Biometric scanning has been around for quite some time. Most people are familiar with its existence from seeing it in spy movies when a character scans their hand or eyes to open a door. Common features used for biometrics are fingerprints, retina or iris structures, facial recognition or hand geometry. The most common biometric used for gun safes is the fingerprint, which cannot be imitated or stolen in the same way as a gun security code. Potential problems with biometric lock Biometrics may seem secure on the surface. After all, you're the only one with ears, eyes and fingerprints. But this is not necessarily more secure than a password. Passwords are essentially private because you are the only person who knows them. Of course, hackers can access it through brute force attacks or phishing, but generally speaking, people can't access it. Biometrics, on the other hand, are inherently public. Whenever you look at something, you reveal your eyes. With fingerprint recognition, wherever you go, you leave your fingerprints behind. With voice recognition, someone is recording your voice. Essentially, all these identifiers can be accessed easily. Once a hacker has a picture of someone's ear, eye or finger, they can easily access their account.As biometrics reveals a part of the user's identity, if stolen it can be used to forge legal documents, passports or criminal records, which can cause more damage than a stolen credit card number.
