An internet connected device and web-based management system which sets out to solve problems regarding security, access management and monitoring associated with traditional door locks.

摘要

The current invention is a "Smart lock" system which consists of a physical device which can be fitted to a doorway/entry point and a web-based management system. The physical device consists of a micro-controller which will control the various electronic components and a Linux single board computer. The web-based management system allows the owner/authorised users to manage/control/monitor a single doorway/entry point or multiple doorways/entry points. The device can be unlocked by registered users via a pincode keypad or fingerprint scanner. The device will record all entry attempts made on the device. The owner/authorised users can view this data locally or remotely using the web-based management system to monitor or manage access to the property. The owner/authorised users can view live a CCTV stream from the device using the web-based management system this would allow them to monitor the doorway/entry point locally or from anywhere in the world. The system can also send SMS alerts to the owner when certain conditions are met such as when a specified user accesses the device e.g. a child returning home from school. The owner/authorised users can generate temporary pincodes for the device using the web-based management system. These temporary pincodes are used to allow once off entry for a specific purpose, the pincodes expire after a set period of time.
