Hi!

Very interesting project. Is there a video showing the recognition?

Great write-up. Impressive what you managed to do in just a short time.

(By the way, the link to the Scary Door project isn't working, I was curious to see more detail on how the TIDL was used).

I like your approach but the door lock that you show is not secure!

why? Hammer and screwdriver and you're in.

I much prefer to put in an electric strike! in the door frame. ie bolt the damn thing into steel.

please see my blog http://smarthab.us/estrikes.html

this type of strike system uses a deadbolt not only can open the door but can tell you if it is unlocked, etc.

I personly believe if you can buy it a box store you are not secure!

Cool project.

It's cool you pulled off driving the motor directly off of the GPIO. I'm very reluctant to ever do anything more with GPIO than trigger transistors and provide signals to high impedance devices. Looking at the datasheet you referenced, I see the overall power requirements of the Chip, but not the GPIO max mA draw. So, I'd be too chicken to try it. Can you relay what the mA max is?

Thanks,

Sean
