The present invention relates to a system and a related method for the secure ordering, tracking and delivery of a narcotic product (e.g., medicinal or recreational marijuana) to a remote location, such as a residence. More specifically, the secure lockbox functions in combination with a software application that enables the customer to order the product, track its real-time delivery, and expected arrival time for the order from a remote location. The lockbox is sealed with the ordered product inside, and can only be accessed by the customer with a unique and secretive code.

A low-power-consumption intelligent electric lock mechanism includes a lock case, a lock-cylinder housing, a motor, a strike plate, a first reset spring, a central rod, a spiral propulsion structure and a holding block. The lock case is fixed within a door frame, the lock case and a lock inner housing form a chamber for accommodating the lock-cylinder housing, two ends of the central rod are respectively fixed to two side walls of the lock-cylinder housing, one end of the first reset spring is fixed within the strike plate, another end of the first reset spring is held against an inner wall of the lock-cylinder housing, one end of the spiral propulsion structure is mechanically connected with the motor, another end of the spiral propulsion structure is connected with the holding block, a top portion of the holding block is held against a bottom portion of the strike plate.

An access control system includes a controller having a credential analyzer, a lock controlled by the controller, and a bezel. The bezel has a power jack electrically connected to the credential analyzer and lock such that the credential analyzer and lock can be operatively powered by an external power source through the power jack.

An access arrangement for a vehicle comprises a vehicle-side unlocking device for unlocking a locking mechanism. Furthermore, it comprises a vehicle-side rechargeable electrical energy storage device which is set up to supply the unlocking device with energy independently of the on-board power supply of the vehicle. Moreover, the access arrangement has a vehicle-side energy supply device comprising a first section for receiving wirelessly transmitted energy and for converting the transmitted energy into electrical energy, and a second section for charging the vehicle-side rechargeable electrical energy storage device. In particular, the access arrangement also comprises a vehicle-side authentication device for checking access authorization, which is supplied with energy independently of the on-board power supply by means of the vehicle-side rechargeable electrical energy storage device. It is therefore no longer necessary to equip a mobile identification transmitter carried by a user with the access arrangement with a mechanical key.

An electronic straight shackle lock apparatus and system. Aspects of the present disclosure provide for a keyless, electronic straight shackle lock that provides a high level of security at a relatively low cost and without any opening for a physical mechanical key. Certain embodiments provide for an easy-to-use and compact adapter for a keyless, electronic straight shackle lock and the ability to manually override the electronic lock. Certain benefits and advantages of the present disclosure include a compact and flexible locking system that can be installed on many different enclosures and doors that can be locked and unlocked using an electronic device via a wireless signal.

A concealed carry weapon (CCW) container offers a user a fail-secure locking mechanism to ensure that the CCW stays locked at all times even when there is no power. The CCW container enables the user to quickly and automatically unlock when the user utilizes the biometric recognition system, a pass code, or an RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) tag. The CCW container employs interior and exterior lighting, quick access magnetic closure with or without a locking mechanism attached, and a ballistic armor plate to protect the user's vital body parts using the ballistic armor plat as a shield. Further, a method for managing the fail-secure locking mechanism allows the user to efficiently access the CCW content using a mobile app, the RFID tag, or any other biometric technology. Additionally, the method provides a panic switch that alerts security authorities of an incident and forwarding any salient video or sound thereto.

Various implementations of an electric strike are described that includes a casing housing that includes a power source, a lock mechanism, circuitry powered by the power source, the circuitry being configured to authenticate a user, and electro-mechanically actuate the lock mechanism, and a rotor coupled to the lock mechanism, the rotor being powered by the power source and configured to situate the lock mechanism based on a lock state of the electric strike.

Methods and system for alerting for a low battery state of charge for an autonomous compartments cluster interacting locally with a mobile device via a short distance wireless communication, the autonomous compartments cluster comprising: at least one compartment equipped with a door and an actuator for unlocking the door, a locker module controlling the actuator, and a battery pack powering the locker module and the at least one compartment, characterized in that the locker module comprises a voltage comparator comparing an output voltage provided at the terminal of the battery pack with a reference minimal voltage wherein the voltage comparator is configured to trigger an alert signal for replacing the battery pack when a minimum transitory voltage at the terminals of the battery pack resulting from an energizing of the actuator by a first step-up converter during an unlocking initiation of the door is lower than the reference minimal voltage, and wherein a controller is configured to change a battery status stored in a memory of the locker module from a usable battery status to a low battery status.
