First Claim
Patent Images
1. An electronic door lock system, comprising:
- an electrically actuated arm having a first position to allow access to an area and a second position to secure the area;
a mesh network to wirelessly communicate with one or more appliances;
a mesh network key accessed by a user and coupled to the mesh network to send a code;
a mesh network lock controller coupled to the electrically actuated arm and to the mesh network, said controller moving the electrically actuated arm to the first position upon authenticating the code, wherein two-way voice communication is captured by the mesh network key or an appliance coupled to the mesh network and transmitted via the mesh network proximate to an arm actuation.
