Fingerprint lock staged "Three Kingdoms"

Lock, door keys too. This is the interpretation of the lock in the Kangxi Dictionary. As the name suggests, locks are one of the tools for security. According to archaeological discoveries, locks appeared in the Yangshao culture of China more than 3,000 years ago. In the Eastern Han Dynasty of China, the level of Chinese reeds reached a high level of technology and was used for more than 1,000 years.

However, with the development of industrial level, in the early 18th century, British D. Porter invented the cam switch lock. In 1848, the American L. Hyeres invented a pin lock with a cylindrical pin, which has become the most commonly used lock in the world. In the 1970s, with the application of microelectronics technologies, magnetron locks, voice-activated locks, ultrasonic locks, infrared locks, electromagnetic wave locks, electronic card locks, fingerprint locks, eye iris locks, and remote locks have appeared.

Today, electronic card locks and fingerprint locks have become the most widely used types of locks in high-end locations. At the Shanghai World Expo that opened in May this year, a fingerprint lock of a German brand was applied.

Locks: "Li Li" and "Double Shield" industries According to industry veterans, locks were born in tandem with private ownership, and their purpose was to protect their property from being stolen. Tracing the roots, the need for property not to be stolen has also become the core logic to promote the development of locks. The three-spring lock has more than 20 kinds of key options, there are more than 80 kinds of cam turn locks, and the key number of the pinball lock reaches more than 2,500 kinds. The improved key lock of the pin lock can reach 1 million kinds. Obviously, the locks in this period are based on the replacement level determined by the probability of being opened by a stranger, and the three-spring lock is eventually replaced by a pinball lock.

Probability of this thing is very interesting, even if the probability is one in 100 million, indicating that in the 1 million key number, this lock can still be opened, which shows that the lock is only a relatively safe concept. The locks of this period were collectively referred to as mechanical locks due to the use of mechanical devices.

Then, scientists continue to study, since the mechanical lock is not a real security lock, what kind of identification technology is unique, in other words: Only the owner of the lock can open it? Scientists discovered through research that fingerprints and irises have the highest probability of uniqueness. After decades of exploration, fingerprint locks have begun to appear and are widely used in military, government, finance, insurance, villas and other high-end, confidential applications. Such locks are collectively referred to as smart locks, or bio-intelligent locks; they rely on biometrics and incorporate high-precision algorithms using software programming.

What has to be said is that in the process of pursuing ultimate security in the lock industry, a transitional product has emerged—code card locks (or called: electronic card locks), commonly known as: electronic locks. It turns on the lock by setting a six-digit password, either using the IC card's built-in chip sensor to unlock the lock, or both.

However, during the specific use process, the passwords are easy to forget (or the level of thieves is improved. They use special materials on the surface of the password keyboard. After the owner has operated the keyboard, fingerprints are left on the keyboard. They are easily stolen based on fingerprints. (Passwords); card lock cards are easily lost, and electronic locks have been criticized in the current market.

According to statistics, the high-end lock market in China is currently growing at a high rate of over 20% per year, and the space is gratifying in the future. With the improvement of the industrial chain, the upper and middle reaches of the lower reaches of the country are all killing the handcuffs, and the concept has fallen. In the final analysis, the contradiction between the spear and the shield is the basis for consumption and procurement.

Fighting war: For the consumers of the “Three Kingdoms” exhibitions, there is a rule in the market: WYSIWYG. Consumers can see (ie: high degree of civilian use) locks, in addition to the most common mechanical locks (bolt locks, etc.), the market mainly has two types of locks: fingerprint lock (a kind of smart locks ) and electronic locks (password locks and card locks).

In addition, according to the author's observation, the high-security fingerprint locks and electronic locks currently on the market are mainly divided into three production areas: Korea, Germany, and China. May wish to apply the story of The Romance of the Three Kingdoms briefly.

Soochow: Korean lock,

Representative manufacturers: Hyundai, Samsung.

Product Type: Electronic lock product impression: design fashion, avant-garde, high prices.

South Korea's electronic locks (mainly password locks) represented by Hyundai and Samsung entered China earlier, and high-end real estate also has a relatively high market share. It has a good reputation among users. Continuing the consistent style of Korean manufacturing, Korean electronic locks are more fancy and have a strong sense of design. This is its advantage.

As far as the author is concerned, the ultimate contradiction of locks is the contradiction between "spears" and "defense", and it seems that the kung-fu in the appearance is contrary to the core needs of consumers. The South Korean high-end locks of Dongwu’s analogy must make great strides in China, and they must work hard on such technology products as electronic locks.

It is also known that all Korean locks are processed by Korean factories and sold by Chinese agents through the introduction of complete locks or parts. This will surely have the problem of difficult service guarantee. Second, because China's fire prevention and anti-theft standards are much higher than in Korea, it is still necessary to verify whether the locks produced in Korea can meet Chinese standards. This is the same as previous foreign milk powder incidents. Foreign brands can claim that the international and Chinese standards are not the same, but the essence is: China's standards are higher than international standards.

A word of comments: Jiang Dong is more talented, according to the risk of the Yangtze River (first-mover advantage), in particular, can not stand still (product technology breakthroughs and standards of Chinese standards).

Wei Guo: German lock represents the manufacturer: Dessmann Duchman product type: fingerprint lock product Impression: thick solid, trustworthy and consumer's common understanding of German products, Germany, from construction to electrical appliances, bathroom, locks and other fields Both are demanders of quality. Taking Siemens's electrical appliances as an example, its various models have a high reputation in China. It was late for the German locks to enter China. Dessmann Dschmann was the first German lock brand to enter China, and it was traced back to 2009.

It is understood that: The method of brushing fingerprint authentication in Germany has also proved that Germany's fingerprint recognition technology is quite mature. In the lock market, German-style locks not only focus on the development and application of high-end smart locks. This type of product is technically a combination of electronics, machinery, software, optics, and biometrics. In terms of product design concepts, Germans have always paid great attention to essential needs. For example, German mobile phones are always long and large, and they do not have large screens, but they are very easy to use in answering calls.

Take Dessmann Deschmann as an example. In order to guarantee the quality of hardware and assembly, all of its key components have been manufactured independently in order to guarantee product quality. Today's highly developed modern logistics, this approach is undoubtedly old-fashioned, but it is also a German's lovely place.

In another development: As the first high-tech project introduced in Hangzhou, Dessmann settled in the Hangzhou Binjiang Development Zone. At the same time, its products were recommended to the Shanghai World Expo for use and display by the Hangzhou Municipal Government and local leader Alibaba.

A word of comment: Strong and strong soldiers, and then obviously disadvantaged, can lead the market depends on the market's pioneering efforts.

Laos: Lingnan Department (Chinese Department)

Representative manufacturers: Ai Deer, Di Jier, Haibei Si, Probaq Product type: fingerprint lock + electronic lock product impression: strong imitation ability, low-cost in the Department of high-end locks and Shuo Guo Liu Huangshu is the same rooting Miao Hong, is a line, direct line. As most of the Chinese locks, card locks, fingerprint locks, etc. are gathered in the Lingnan area, the area is known as the Chinese lock capital, China's 40% to 50% of mechanical lock manufacturers are gathered here, from the industrial chain With regard to downstream supporting capabilities, the region has formed a climate that cannot be overlooked.

Like the traditional Chinese footwear and home appliance manufacturing industry, the Lingnan Department is currently weak in terms of development capabilities and is mostly in the imitation phase. However, the cost control at the manufacturing end is strong. Take the fingerprint lock as an example, the Lingnan lock company is assembling factories. Mainly, the core components of the fingerprint lock, such as: fingerprint head, lock body, LCD screen, etc., are purchased in batches, and finally assembled in a factory building. A set of retail price of 1000 yuan locks, the cost of its parts and components can reach 300 to 400 yuan / set. Due to the lack of monitoring of the quality of parts and components, the risk of out-of-control product quality has increased significantly. In addition, fingerprint locks have high requirements on the production environment. For example, the human body electrostatics of the assembly workers will have a great impact on the electronic components inside the locks. Due to the pursuit of low-cost expansion by the Lingnan-based companies, the plant configuration is relatively simple. In the short term, the products The contradiction between quality and low cost is not reconcilable.

One word comment: The foundation is weak, but familiar with the local market, the operation of the law in the future is immeasurable.

Summary: From the Chinese market, the Korean faction, the German-speaking lock, and the Lingnan department have their own strengths. The Korean department has the strongest brand strength due to its first-mover advantage; the German-made lock works well and is technologically advanced; Lingnan. Department of the full range of low prices; also have their own disadvantages, the Korean Department of success in the technical end of fatigue, the German Department to enter the market too late, the Lingnan Department of the lack of brand power. Whoever will dominate the country seems to be difficult to distinguish. However, as the world's leading display platform for cutting-edge technology, the Expo's application of fingerprint locks seems to be setting the tone for the technical genre and the competitive landscape of the numerous global locks, and hinting at a certain direction. As for Samsung, Dessmann, Duchman, etc., based on the fast-growing fingerprint lock market in China, all brands need to work hard.
