Hi All,
I have been watching a company called LockState for a while as they progressed on development of a Wi-Fi enabled deadbolt. Well it looks like they are finally accepting pre-orders at www.remotelock.com. The product looked really interesting to me since it uses Wi-Fi instead of Z-wave. With my current Z-wave locks, the best I can get is about 50% reliability. I am fairly confident that these Wi-Fi locks will be near 100% and won't require another network or Z-wave beaming etc so it should be a much easier product to integrate and use. I have contacted the company and they are planning on releaseing an API around the time the product is released. With this API, it should be possible to integrate these locks into HomeSeer. I have already pre-ordered one and plan to take a stab at developing a plugin to support these locks when they are available.
Is anyone else interested in something like this?
Adam
