Tencent Digital (Wen Xin) According to the Indiegogo website, Gate is the first integrated home door lock solution. With Gate, users can open or lock doors for trusted people anytime, anywhere. The Gate consists of a key lock, an action-activated camera, and a call button, which is mounted on the user's door latch.
When a person is found in front of a door or someone presses a call button, Gate will notify the user immediately. The user responds to the notification and opens the Gate Door app, which will be able to see, hear and speak with the visitor via the mobile phone. With the Gate's built-in speaker and microphone, visitors can talk to the user. The Gate is directly connected to the user's WiFi network and sends video to the user's mobile device over the WiFi or 4G mobile phone network. The user can remotely open the door, lock the door, and assign the visitor a temporary or permanent unlock code.
Indiegogo stated that Gate can connect directly to home WiFi, so it is no longer dependent on other network devices. It can also be used with other WiFi-connected devices, it is already compatible with Amazon Alexa smart speakers, and will be compatible with HomeKit, Nest, IFTTT and other products in the future.
The Gate battery can be used for 4 months on a single charge. It should be pointed out that battery replacement is also quite convenient. A few days before the battery is consumed, the user will be notified that there should be enough time to charge it.
Gate users can use the phone and key to open the door and lock the door, which contains three new keys.
Indiegogo said that in addition to keys, passwords and applications, the future Gate will also have an automatic unlock function. Although other smart door lock products already have this feature, it has been reported that users will automatically open the door when they are at home - creating a security risk. The Gate team wants to ensure that the product is 100% safe.
The installation of the Gate is quite simple. Just fix 2 screws and complete the installation in less than 5 minutes.
The current price of Gate on Indiegogo is 179 US dollars (about 1209 yuan).
