hi I'm Scott Steinmetz inna there's a first look at the goji smartlock now maybe you wanted to get into your home with a little more tech than just a regular key maybe you don't want to give up using that key though this is kind of a hybrid technology because built-in here is a screen and a camera and an accelerometer the smart lock will take your picture with a proximity range of six feet to four feet and store that in the cloud plus the accelerometer that's built into this smart lock will notice if you knock or tap and we'll send you an alert with that picture so let you know who's come by your door when you're not around but there's more than that it allows a regular mechanical key right over here via flip-down but you can control how you access it with an app that's available on iOS and Android specifically iPhone 4s and later and galaxy Samsung s3 and up in the samsung galaxy line because of Bluetooth Low Energy which this uses so you can actually use your phone to unlock your door as you approach it or use the key and again you could also set it up so that somebody has your key but can only use it certain times of the day or in certain days and can't use it other time so it gives you an additional second level of control the smart lock uses for double-a batteries tucked in the back and it is connected via Wi-Fi and if you also know home networks it also uses ZigBee and it will update its firmware as needed automatically the whole kit costs two hundred seventy eight dollars and the claim you can install it within 15 minutes if you know how to take out a deadbolt and do it yourself it's a pretty compact kit and pre-orders are being taken now and it'll be available in stores next March it's a pretty interesting one-two punch if you want to have a little bit of monitoring a little bit extra lock control and still have a key I'm Scott Stein and that's a quick look at the go G smart lock
