IoT based security in Digital Door Lock

Abstract

Digital door locks have been widely used as part of the Internet of Things. However, there are reports that digital door locks being opened by invalid users to invade homes and offices. In this study, a digital door lock system that can work with the Internet of Things environment is proposed. It is designed and implemented to enhance security and convenience. In the overall system, there will be two different significant techniques to provide home security. One is to use video technology to see the front door in real time even if the home is empty and another is to provide communication between the door system and smart phone device. Connecting the smart door system with the smart phone through the cellular network, the house owner will have several opportunities such as controlling the house, getting instant video streaming, receiving and sending message, talking to the visitor and starting the alarm system. The experimental results indicate that the proposed system may provide a consistent support and assistance for safe and secure life.
