What kind of lock can be called a “smart lock”? The most intuitive feature of a smart lock is “de-keying”. The door is opened with biometric methods such as fingerprints, iris, face swiping, touch, etc., and can be managed by mobile apps. .
The smart lock not only resolves the distress of losing the key, but also has the advantages of remote management, real-time status query, violent door picking warning, and rechargeable lithium battery, making the smart lock the most ambitious “entry-level” smart home product.
Smart door locks are essentially the Internet
The majority believe that smart locks are only a functional upgrade of traditional locks, just like color TVs replacing black-and-white TVs, with the same channels and people playing. Minorities believe that smart locks take advantage of the mobile Internet to profoundly change the scene of people’s home life. The “lock” that opens the door is only the underlying hardware and physical carrier, but in the long run, the essence is the Internet.
It is believed that “smart locks” are the “connection attributes” of the Internet better than the “physical attributes” of locks in the product logic and strategic sense, and can be summarized into three different stages:
The 1.0 version of the Internet Smart Lock connects family members or residents based on the door lock closer. The user can check whether the family member is at any time on the mobile phone App, and can remotely assign temporary door opening passwords for relatives, friends, nanny, tenants, etc. and delete them in time Permission, and check the real-time situation and historical records of opening, closing, and anti-locking on the App.
The 2.0 version of the Internet smart lock starts to have the ability of “self-learning”, and according to the big data of the occupants, it will issue corresponding instructions. For example, if the elderly stay at home for more than 12 hours, they will automatically send alarms to their children’s mobile apps and remind them whether to go out for a walk, etc. , The combination of smart lock and smart algorithm becomes more “smart” and more humane.
The Internet Smart Lock version 3.0 will form network benefits after the installation base reaches a critical point. The Internet Smart Lock App can become a communication tool between families and even families; “Smart Lock + APP” will become the touch center of other smart home products. There are more and more community O2O and home services, such as the breakfast of Are you hungry when you go to work in the morning, automatically delivered to your hands, gradually forming an open ecosystem of family life services.
