An intelligent door lock system coupled to a door at a dwelling. a door status device is at the dwelling. The door status device is coupled to a drive shaft of a lock device to assist in locking and unlocking a lock of a lock device at the door. The lock device is coupled to the door status device and includes a bolt. An engine, an energy source and a memory are coupled together. A camera is coupled to or part of the intelligent door lock system. The camera is configured to record in response to door lock status.

It is provided a method for determining when to trigger positioning of a portable key device used in access control for an electronic lock controlling access to a restricted physical space. The method is performed in a positioning determiner and comprises the steps of: obtaining movement data from a motion sensor of the portable key device, the movement data indicating movement of the portable key device; determining when the movement data indicates a stop in motion of the key device; and triggering positioning of the portable key device when a stop in motion of the key device has been determined.

An access system (2) has a first actuation handle (6) that is attached to an outside of a door (4), a second actuation handle (8) that is attached to an inside of a door (4), and an access control system that has at least one evaluation unit (14), which is coupled to the at least one reader (10, 12) and is configured to identify a transponder that has been read. The system is characterized in that a first reader (10) is located on the outside of the door (4) and a second reader (12) is located on the inside of the door (4), and that the at least one evaluation unit (14) is configured to determine whether a transponder (16) read by the first reader (10) and/or the second reader (12) and identified by the at least one evaluation unit (14) is inside or outside the door (4), and to generate a door-opening signal if the identified transponder (16) is on the outside.

An exemplary lockset is configured for installation in a standard door preparation, and includes an exterior assembly, an interior assembly, and a center assembly connecting the exterior and interior assemblies. The exterior assembly includes an exterior escutcheon which houses a credential reader assembly including a multi-tech credential reader. The interior assembly includes an interior escutcheon which houses a control system. The center assembly includes a chassis, an outer surface of which may define a channel. The credential reader assembly is in communication with the control assembly via a wire harness, a portion of which may pass through the channel.

An entry system includes a transponder unit and a transmission unit which is arranged in an object. The transmission unit is designed to transmit a request to the transponder unit, and the transponder unit includes a motion sensor which is designed to detect a movement of the transponder unit and to generate motion information. The transponder unit is designed to transmit, in a first operating state, to the transmission unit, in response to the request, a reply containing the motion information, wherein the transmission unit is designed to decide on the basis of the motion information whether to activate the object.

A remote access device and methods of operation thereof are provided for accessing a physical object or location. The remote access device includes an accelerometer, a wireless transmitter, and control circuitry. The control circuitry causes the wireless transmitter to transition between a first operating mode and a second operating mode in response to receiving signals from the accelerometer indicating a first change in motion states of the remote access device. The control circuitry causes the wireless transmitter to transition between a first operating mode and a second operating mode in response to receiving signals from the accelerometer indicating a second change in motion states of the remote access device. The control circuitry further causes the wireless transmitter to transition between the first operating mode and the second operating mode in response to receiving signals from the accelerometer indicating a third change in motion states of the remote access device.

A sharing system includes an authentication device arranged in an operation subject that can be entered and exited. The sharing system includes mobile terminals that obtain code information required to use the operation subject. The mobile terminals are allowed by the authentication device to operate the operation subject if authenticated through communication with the authentication device. The sharing system further includes a terminal checking unit that checks the number of the mobile terminals that are located near the authentication device and can communicate with the authentication device. The sharing system further includes a process execution unit that executes a process, in a case where the number of the mobile terminals checked by the terminal checking unit is more than one and any one of the mobile terminals is left forgotten in the operation subject, for allowing another one of the mobile terminals to operate the operation subject.

An intelligent door lock system is coupled to a door at a dwelling. A first sensor is at the dwelling. The first sensor is coupled to a drive shaft of a lock device to assist in locking and unlocking a lock of a lock device at a door. The lock device is coupled to the first sensor and the lock device includes a bolt. An engine, an energy source and a memory are coupled together. A magnetic sensor provides a reading or measurement used to determine a door open or closed status.
