The main component of smart home concept lays on the door, so the door lock system becomes an interesting topic to discuss. The paper presents a design of lock system for operating door without a control to open or lock it that brings a comfort and can be applied effectively. Besides, the lock system can be used for all kinds of human's physical condition. The system uses bluetooth technology with low power and is available on almost all gadgets. The design of the system is also completed with special feature to increase the security and the comfort of the users.

Abstract: An electronic access control and recording system includes a lock, a card reader, a key card configured to communicate with the lock and with the card reader, a database, and an administrator microprocessor configured to provide a user interface and to communicate with the database and with the card reader. At least one of the lock and the card contain a microprocessor and a non-volatile memory storing encrypted information. In use, the key card provides access to the lock and transfers the encrypted information between the lock and the database via the card reader and the administrator microprocessor. The administrator microprocessor provides a user interface for reviewing and administering the database. The user interface also provides account and password qualification for users.
