What specific progress have Chinese lock factories made in intelligent development?

With the rapid development of science and technology, intelligence has become an important trend in all walks of life. In the lock industry, Chinese lock factories keep up with the times and continue to make significant progress in intelligent development, bringing safer and more convenient products and services to consumers around the world.

1. Technological innovation: biometric technology leads the trend
In the wave of intelligence, biometric technology, with its unique advantages, has become an important direction for the innovation and development of Chinese lock factories. At present, technologies such as fingerprint recognition, face recognition, and palm vein recognition have been widely used in smart locks.

As one of the earliest biometric technologies used in smart locks, fingerprint recognition technology has upgraded from optical recognition to semiconductor recognition. Optical fingerprint recognition technology is based on the principle of light reflection, collecting human fingerprint data through a light collection system, and then converting it into digital information storage. When the finger touches the identification area again, the system immediately starts the comparison system to determine whether the texture data between the two fingerprints before and after are consistent through comparison, and finally determines whether it passes the inspection. This technology is cheap and uses simple optical principles for comparison, so it was widely used in the early days. However, it also has some significant disadvantages. First of all, it is very sensitive to the dryness and wetness of fingers. Dirty or wet hands may cause recognition errors. Secondly, the security of optical fingerprint recognition technology is relatively low because it can be cracked by simply copying a flat fingerprint. In order to overcome the shortcomings of optical fingerprint recognition, semiconductor fingerprint recognition technology emerged as the times require. Dense capacitive electrodes are added to the semiconductor fingerprint recognition area, and fingerprint information is obtained by detecting the difference in coupling capacitance caused by the distance between the capacitor and the fingerprint. This technology is also known as capacitive recognition or live fingerprint recognition.

2. Function upgrade: smart linkage improves the quality of life
In addition to technological innovation, Chinese lock factories have also made significant progress in functional upgrades of smart locks. Through linkage with smart home systems, smart locks are no longer a single security product, but have become an important tool for improving the quality of life.

For example, some high-end smart locks have achieved seamless integration with smart home systems. When a user enters the home through a smart lock, the system will automatically turn on the lights, air conditioning and other equipment in the home to create a comfortable and warm living environment for the user. At the same time, users can also remotely control smart devices at home through the mobile phone APP to realize functions such as remote unlocking, checking door lock status, and receiving alarm information.

In addition, some smart locks also have smart alarm functions. When the door lock encounters an illegal unlocking attempt or an abnormal situation occurs, the system will immediately send an alarm message to the user and automatically record the unlocking record, providing users with a strong security guarantee.

3. Market Application: Diversified Scenarios to Meet Demands
Driven by the development of intelligence, smart locks have been widely used in diversified scenarios such as homes, offices, and hotels. Chinese lock factories have launched smart lock products with different functions to meet the needs of different scenarios.

In home scenarios, smart locks have become an important tool to improve home security and convenience. By linking with other smart home devices, smart locks can not only achieve remote unlocking, alarm and other functions, but also provide users with more personalized services.

In office scenarios, smart locks pay more attention to convenience and management. For example, some smart locks can control the opening and closing status of door locks by setting different time periods to facilitate employees' entry and exit. At the same time, the system can also record employee entry and exit records to provide data support for enterprise management.

In the hotel scene, smart locks pay more attention to safety and convenience. Through facial recognition, fingerprint recognition and other technologies, the hotel can quickly verify the guest's identity and unlock the door. At the same time, the system can also record guests' check-in and check-out information to provide data support and service optimization for the hotel.
