Abstract

Smart locking systems have arisen as a potential option for contemporary access control as a result of the Internet of Things' (IoT) quick development and the rising desire for increased security measures. In order to provide secure, practical, and adaptable access management, this research study examines the design, implementation, and assessment of a smart locking system that makes use of IoT technologies. To enable smooth integration with current door lock systems, the proposed smart locking system makes use of a combination of hardware and software components. The system's brain, a central control unit, manages access rights and coordinates communication between numerous components. Users are able to remotely manage and keep an eye on access to their properties thanks to user authentication carried out using a mobile application. This study adds to the expanding body of information on smart locking systems and offers helpful tips for researchers, professionals, and manufacturers that are interested in creating and using safe and clever access control systems. The results show how IoT technology can revolutionize conventional lock systems and support the growth of smart homes and smart cities
