Smart and real-time door lock system for an elderly user based on face recognition

Abstract

Many sophisticated smart door lock systems have been made. Still, most of them required the user to use an additional device such as a smartphone, tag, smartcard, or accessing some user interfaces, which is complicated to use for inexperienced elderly. This condition creates a gap between the elderly and technology which makes it difficult for the elderly to accept and use the technology. In this paper, we proposed a smart and real-time door lock system for an elderly user based on local binary pattern histogram as a face recognition algorithm with modular system architecture design. The novelty in our proposed system design, it does not require any additional device, it does not use any user interface, and the least user participation by automating the processes. All the user needs to do just walk toward the door and stand in front of it and the door will automatically unlock and locked back after the user enters the house and close the door. The system resulted in an accuracy of 98%, with an average processing time is 1.449 seconds for the entire process. Additional advantages, the system is designed with a modular approach that makes it flexible and scalable for further development.

Hotel room access control: an NFC approach ecotourism framework

“…The compilation in the NFC solution necessitates a complicated set of rules to manage as it is deposited in an outside record that necessitates different admission and composite measurements, and where a hotel guest checks out or does not have any membership renewal, inserting individual can be fairly cumbersome to operate straight forward, so a smartphone software with easy-to-maintain record logs on to certain establishments is very efficient to manage (Govindraj et al , 2020; Hanafiah et al , 2021). Simple and easy operation are essential for hotel administration; however, the application of an intelligent door solution necessitates human contact and determination through the detection of contact ID, which is not practically suitable for hotels, particularly at the door entrance, especially for employees holding packages or physically challenged person (Saputra and Surantha, 2021; See et al , 2021). There are three options of operations deemed to be potential situations for the solution: “read/write tags, peer-to-peer tags, and the card emulator”.…”

“…"Short-range wireless communication or Near Field Communication" (NFC) is a "Wireless Power Transmission" system used primarily for contactless credit cards, access control, digital keys and others (Masurkar and Pandey, 2020). NFC smart door locks are operated via smart access control systems (Saputra and Surantha, 2021). The mobile access control system effectively improves the applicability, convenience and security of the control system (Pacheco and Miranda, 2020).…”

“…One research work (Saputra et al (2021). [1]) was done to open the door using face recognition. When the system recognizes the face, the door will open.…”
