SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SECURE LOCKING MECHANISMS

摘要

A locking system can include an RFID lock that can include a shackle and a body that can, for example, be steel, or other materials commonly used to produce locks, such as metal alloys, etc. The shackle can be pressed into the body and locked into place by an electronic piston. When the RFID lock is to be unlocked, an electronic piston can release the shackle allowing the lock to be opened. Unlike conventional locks, however, the electronic piston can be controlled by an RFID reader. The electronic piston can be opened when the RFID reader reads an RFID enabled key that is configured to unlock the RFID lock. In other words, specific RFID enabled keys can be configured to open the RFID lock analogously to the way that specific keys can be cut to configure the key to open a specific lock.
