The site Kickstarter crowdfunding project launched Noke - the world's first "smart" padlock.The device developed by the American startup FŪZ Designs.
Novelty is a castle with electronically controlled via iPhone. Through the mobile application from the App Store, the user can install and remove the lock, and share electronic keys with friends or relatives. Moreover, to open the lock, do not even need to remove the smartphone from his pocket - just "click" of its bolt: electronic mechanism scans the immediate environment and automatically releases the lock. No more shuffling in a huge bunch of keys!
Anti-theft device can be used for garage doors, drawer or a school with a bicycle. The application allows you to track multiple locks at the same time. As the developers say, FŪZ Designs uses strong encryption algorithms and security, comparable with the bank to prevent any unauthorized access to the system.
Food Noke receives from ordinary batteries. Its battery lasts for about a year of operation.When you need a replacement, the gadget will send the owner a message warning about the need to install fresh batteries. The data exchange is carried out with a smartphone wirelessly Bluetooth LE.
If FŪZ Designs will collect the necessary $ 100,000 , the supply of "smart" lock will begin in February 2015.
