Description

Interlock needs an easy way to give members access to the space. It is important however, to maintain the ability to easily remove access punitively or as members choose to leave the group. The ability to keep track of who enters and leaves the space is not only helpful for security, but also could be used creatively.

Plan

Part 1 - Get a simple electronic lock system working:

  • Electronic lock (really, an electronic strike)
    • Need to know the type and size of door/frame we are working with
  • Computer control of the strike
    • Homemade control through serial port w/relay (cheaper, easier to implement than Arduino)
    • Arduino
      • Probably overkill for this system
  • Authentication system
  • Audit logging

Part 2 - Additional authentication for extra security:

  • Second factor authentication system (pin pad, touch screen pin pad)

Part 3 - Fun:

  • Twitter bot
    • Tweet hourly updates on who is in the space
  • IRC bot
    • Regular updates on who is in the space
  • Expand security to other items
    • KegBot security
    • Multiple areas within the space
