I am planning to replace the lock's cylinder with a DC motor that is going to be triggered by a microcontroller by using some type of RF tech, probably is going to be RFID
In this week I started to define my final idea of the project and began to read and document
myself to develop the content of my website and synchronize the content developed on my
laptop with the gitlab server.
It is also necessary to choose an editor and a programming language to develop each of the
graphical interfaces that will integrate the site with information from each week, so I make
use of a template and an open source editor.
Ideas for my project:
- Dog food dispenser.
- Conversion of mechanical to electronic lock.
Origin of the idea
Taking into account the expensive prices of some electric
locks and the insecurity of
some traditional key-locks, i thought about.. why do not make a affordable version of an
electric lock?
I do not know how to ensure that the traditional lock can become an electronic lock, there are many types of electronic locks on the market, but the idea is that anyone who has access to a fablab can improve their lock.
