Goodbye keys: Microcontroller powers smart lock system
Front door keys have been rendered redundant by STMicroelectronics STM32 microcontroller which is powering the August Smart Lock home-access control system. The high performance and power efficiency of the embedded microcontroller gives August Smart Lock users access to their home's door lock from a smartphone or computer - no keys needed.
"The August Smart Lock powered by the STM32, is an innovative device that revolutionises a familiar home function," said Tony Keirouz, Vice President Marketing and Applications, Americas Region, STMicroelectronics. "ST's broad STM32 portfolio, along with its industry-leading sensors, provides a perfect platform for designing novel devices like the August Smart Lock, which are empowering the future of the digital home and the Internet of Things."
"Over the past two years, we have worked to make the August Smart Lock the most intelligent and secure way for consumers to manage access to their homes. Our lock installs in less than ten minutes and allows users to send a virtual key to anyone they choose via the iOS and Android mobile app," said Jason Johnson, co-founder and CEO of August. "The STM32 microcontroller is flawless in its ability to deliver the most secure signal processing and responsiveness, ensuring August's functionality and reliability."
