An intelligent electronic lock for receiving an identification signal and an induction signal includes a housing, a wireless sensor, a current divider, a microcontroller, a driver and at least one blocking element. The wireless sensor, the current divider, the microcontroller and at least one blocking element are disposed in the housing. An induction coil of the wireless sensor senses the induction signal to generate an induction current. The wireless sensor receives the identification signal. The current divider distributes the induction current to the microcontroller and the driver. The microcontroller obtains a target identification information from the identification signal. The microcontroller compares the target identification information with a reference identification information to output a control signal. The driver drives at least one blocking element to move between an unlocking position and a locking position. Based on the aforementioned description, the intelligent electronic lock is able to operate without power.

In a digital key system, each of a digital key and a digital lock include two terminals and an electric circuit to superimpose and separate a high-frequency signal and a DC current. A microcomputer is operated by DC current supplied from a battery of the digital key through the electric circuit when the digital key is connected to the digital lock, thereby causing an NFC unit to perform communication by the high-frequency signal with the digital key through the electric circuit, read unlocking authority information from a non-contact memory, and authenticate the read unlocking authority information.

A mobile computing device for transmitting token data to a key card reading device having an activation mechanism is provided. The computing device is programmed to receive token data representing access data of a key card, generate a transmission signal representing the access data of the key card based on the token data in response to receiving the token data, and output the transmission signal to the key card reading device. The access data causes the key card reading device to activate the activation mechanism. The transmission signal causes the key card reading device to activate the activation mechanism when the mobile computing device is placed near the key card reading device and the transmission signal is authenticated by the key card reading device.

A locking/unlocking system includes: a power reception device having a vehicle coil provided in a vehicle and receiving power at a first frequency in a non-contact manner from a ground coil provided on the ground; an operation switch outputting an operation signal in response to a user operation; a locking/unlocking controller that, in response to an input of an operation signal, conducts wireless communication with a key device located within a predetermined distance at a second frequency close to the first frequency and that, in response to successful wireless communication with the key device, locks/unlocks a lock provided in the vehicle; a signal determining part that outputs an input operation signal to the locking/unlocking controller; and a wiring switch that connects wiring so that the operation signal output from the operation switch is input into the signal determining part during a power reception operation of the power reception device.

A dual mode, passcode storage, wireless secure lock is disclosed. In one embodiment, a key is provided that includes a key coil, a first key data processing device (DPD), a second key DPD, and a key radio transceiver. The first key DPD is configured to receive a first authentication code (AC) from a lock via the key coil. The first key DPD is configured to compare the first AC with data in memory of the key DPD. The first key DPD is configured to activate the second key DPD in response to response to determining the first AC compares equally to data in memory of the first key DPD. The second key DPD is configured to transmit a second AC to the lock via the key radio transceiver after the second key DPD is activated.

A method for unlocking the lock using real-time wireless power supply includes proceeding with authentication identification of a powerless lock by an electronic key after pairing. Power is wirelessly supplied from the electronic key to the lock when the authentication identification starts or the authentication identification passes. The lock obtains the power wirelessly supplied from the lock to operate. When the authentication identification is identified as being successful, the electronic key outputs an unlocking command to the lock. The lock receiving the unlocking command proceeds with an unlocking operation using the power supplied wirelessly.

An arrangement and a method for an electromagnetic padlock (10) are disclosed. A handheld unit (30), which is movably connected via a connector member to a lock fitting (50) to be locked by a padlock (10), is removably attached to a padlock (10) during unlocking and locking. When the padlock (10) is locked, a magnetic sensor (44) of the electronic key (40) detects a change in detected magnetic flux from the attached magnet (31), representing a verification that the padlock has both been locked and locked at a correct location. Incorrect locking procedure, or locking at incorrect locations may generate warnings.

A handle for a car door includes a near field communication unit having a microchip and an antenna. The antenna includes a coil and an elongated connection part configured to cooperate with the microchip, a body, an overmolded portion formed on the body and defining an encapsulating zone including an entirety of the coil and part of the elongated connection part. The elongated connection part includes a terminal portion including a cooperation extremity configured to cooperate with the microchip. The terminal portion is outside the encapsulated zone.

The invention relates to a device (10) for data acquisition and measurement acquisition for a door handle (2) of a vehicle (1), said device comprising: at least one communications device (11), in particular an NFC device (11) for NFC data exchange with an external communications terminal (3); and at least one sensor device (12) for measuring (20) a change in capacitance. According to the invention, just one voltage device (14) is provided for common adjustment of the voltages of the at least one communications device (11) and the at least one sensor device (12).

A device for two-way detection of the approach of a portable apparatus for near-field hands-free access to a vehicle, said device including a communication antenna having a near-field communication frequency, the device including: a first passive inductive sensor oriented towards the outside of the vehicle, a second passive inductive sensor oriented towards the inside of the vehicle, the two sensors being arranged so as to face one another, separated by a ferrite, and receiving the electromagnetic field emitted by the communication antenna, and being capable of detecting the approach of the portable apparatus; a device for measuring a first voltage across the terminals of the first sensor and a device for measuring a second voltage across the terminals of the second sensor; a device for comparing the first voltage and the second voltage in order to detect the approach of the portable apparatus coming from outside or coming from inside the vehicle.
