With the continuous development and widespread application of advanced technologies such as 5G, the Internet of Things (IoT), and big data, smart locks have risen in prominence and become a popular choice for consumers. Today, smart lock manufacturer JJR discusses the highly favored and practical features of smart locks available in the market.
Face Recognition
Smart locks currently on the market integrate multiple unlocking methods, including face recognition, fingerprints, traditional keys, passwords, door cards, and temporary app passwords. This greatly enhances convenience, allowing users to easily enter and exit with just their phone or personal features, without the need for keys or door cards.
The core of face recognition smart locks lies in advanced facial recognition technology. This technology captures facial images or video streams through high-precision cameras, first performing a facial presence detection to confirm the presence of a face. Afterward, the system analyzes key facial features such as the facial contour and the position of facial features. The system then extracts a unique facial identity based on these features and compares it with a pre-stored facial database for verification, accurately and quickly recognizing and confirming the user's identity.
Smart Peephole
Integrating the electronic peephole function into the smart lock design not only achieves functional integration but also shares accessories with the smart lock, effectively reducing costs while significantly enhancing the smart lock's attractiveness. Smart locks with peepholes offer the unique advantages of electronic peepholes, such as portrait capture and image upload functions, allowing users to determine whether remote unlocking is necessary based on uploaded images.
In contrast, traditional peepholes use optical imaging principles, with a limited field of view. The images often appear blurry or distorted, making it difficult to clearly show the situation outside the door. Especially in dimly lit or completely dark hallways, traditional peepholes are almost useless. Moreover, criminals can use "reverse peephole" tools to spy on the user’s privacy from outside the door or even dismantle the traditional peephole to carry out break-ins, posing significant security risks to the home.
On the other hand, smart peepholes utilize high-definition cameras to capture the outside view, with larger display screens and clear, detailed images. Even at night, infrared or low-light imaging technology ensures good visual quality, effectively solving the many security and usability issues faced by traditional peepholes.
Smart New Life
Compared to traditional locks, entry-type smart locks have made a revolutionary improvement in user experience. Unlocking methods like fingerprints are not only simple and quick but also far superior to traditional locks. Since their introduction, they have shown enormous market potential. More profoundly, as an indispensable part of the smart home system, smart locks offer endless possibilities for future smart living.
