A Remote Lock System Using Bluetooth Communication

Abstract

As smartphones have recently become one of the most popular devices worldwide, various convenient applications are being released. Now smartphones not only provide the ordinary internal processes such as dialing or receiving phone calls, sending text messages, and doing mobile banking wherever we are, but they also are beginning to control various other devices that are part of our lives. Through the smartphone using mobile applications, we can remotely control a variety of external devices such as TVs, projectors for presentations, computers, and even cars. This paper presents the design and implementation of a remote lock system using wireless communications. The remote lock system is a lock system that can be controlled remotely by a dedicated Android application. The main function of the Android smartphone is equipped with Bluetooth so that a lock can be opened and managed via the application functions. The users' lock information in real time can be stored and managed in the database via a server that a server manager builds and manages. Even though users forget the password, our proposed lock system also guides them to find it easily, and provides the user's manual. Using this system, users can do a variety of management functions such as adding, deleting, modifying, and purchasing the user's own locks.

Utilizing a Bluetooth remote lock system for a smartphone

“…The remote lock system proposed in this paper and implemented in Java 245 consists of a lock with four main modules, a mobile device, and a server computer [2], [3]. The system provides seven operations to achieve its goals:…”

“…In this paper, we propose a new remote lock system using wireless communication. Few products of this kind exist and this research is based on the notion that there exists a market for this kind of product [2], [3]. 20 Our proposed remote lock system using wireless communication eliminates the problems caused by traditional locks.…”

Aplicación Móvil en Android Para El Monitoreo De Rutas De Camiones en La Ciudad De México

“…Android, que es el sistema operativo de Google de código abierto, actualmente está siendo adoptado por la industria y los usuarios de teléfonos inteligentes, para el desarrollo de aplicaciones móviles de entretenimiento y/o científicas, integración de tecnologías a través de servicios web, conexiones Wi-Fi, comunicaciones de datos por Bluetooth y/o NFC, posicionamiento geográfico, bases de datos, aplicaciones en domótica (Gung et al, 2011) y el área automotriz, entre otros. Bluetooth, por ser una tecnología inalámbrica y de corto alcance, se está empleando para la transmisión y recepción de datos, que pueden ir desde aplicaciones interactivas para viviendas inteligentes (Chun et al,2011;Yan & Shi, 2013), salas de chat (Pan et al, 2012), Revista Colombiana de Tecnologías de Avanzada sistemas de bloqueo remoto y seguridad en el hogar (Jeong et al, 2014;Potts & Sukittanon, 2012), hasta aplicaciones de posicionamiento geográfico de vehículos y usuarios (Blanco & Romero, 2010;Cedeño, 2013;Gonzáles et a l., 2012) con Bluetooth o servidores y navegadores web, mediante el empleo de los mapas de Google (Pacheco,201), entre otros. En este trabajo se describe el desarrollo de una aplicación móvil en android, que mediante una comunicación Bluetooth entre el dispositivo móvil y un sistema electrónico de posicionamiento geográfico instalado en un camión, se pueda registrar y almacenar el recorrido realizado por el vehículo en la Ciudad de México, de tal forma que se pueda trazar, monitorear y optimizar la ruta realizada.…”

Design and Production of a Unit that Enables the User to Control a Vehicle through the Use of a Smartphone

“…In this paper [5] the authors combine an adapted OAuth flow for Smartphone-to-Cloud communications with a novel key deployment mechanism for Public Key Infrastructures in vehicular networks. Thanks to the smartphone using mobile applications, we can remotely control a variety of external devices such as TVs, projectors for presentations, computers, and even cars in this paper [6].…”
