The Intelilock project presents a cutting-edge remote-controlled lock designed to meet modern security needs. Feedback from user interviews revealed a strong preference for smartphone integration, emphasizing security over aesthetics and a budget of $50. Our final design merges Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity, featuring user-friendly software that allows location tracking via Google Maps, battery level checks, and remote lock/unlock capabilities. Built from solid steel and incorporating solar panels for low maintenance, this lock is both flexible and robust, ensuring exceptional security and functionality.

Project 1- Intelilock By: Brennan, Tim, Hunter, Sajad, Charu
Outline Remote Controlled Lock • Customers • Benchmarking/Specifications • Concept Generation • Selection • Final Design
Customers • Interviews & surveys • Majority had smartphones • Want good security and multi-functionality • Generally, willing to pay $50 at most • Security over Aesthetics
Benchmarking/Specifications (Worst) 1– 2 – 3 – 4 – 5 (Best) • Bluetooth Lock has best Ease of Use • Master Dial Lock has best Security and most Reliable • Flexible Lock has most Functionality (most versatile)
Concept Generation • Broke up concept generation into all different components of a lock • For each component, we came up with several possibilities • We brainstormed: • Loop • Lock type • App and wireless features • Materials • Security
Selection • Went over complete list of concepts and features, voting using the like/dislike technique • Came up with baseline list of features and materials • From there, made a Pugh chart to compare loop designs • Based on results and data collected from interviews/surveys, we decided on a combination between two designs. • Final design chosen because of its novelty
Final Specifications • Our lock combines the best of all the locks we compared and the designs we came up with • Combined Bluetooth and Wifi connectivity • Simple to use, powerful software • Save a marker of the location in google maps with the press of a button • Check battery level • Turn On/Off remotely • Have lock emit sound to locate if lost • Solar panels for low maintenance • Solid Steel Body • Flexible but strong braided steel cord, compactly secured to the outside of the lock when not in use
