    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garage_door_opener

    The electric overhead garage door opener was invented by C.G. Johnson in 1926 in Hartford City, Indiana. [1] Electric Garage Door openers did not become popular until Era Meter Company of Chicago offered one after World War II where the overhead garage door could be opened via a key pad located on a post at the end of the driveway or a switch inside the garage.

  3. Rolling code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_code

    An attacker may be able to learn the code word that opened the door just now, but the receiver will not accept that code word for the foreseeable future. A rolling code system uses cryptographic methods that allow the remote control and the receiver to share codewords but make it difficult for an attacker to break the cryptography.

  4. Swing-door operator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swing-door_operator

    A door operator may use sensors to prevent the door from coming into contact with a user. Full Energy operators require at least 3 sensors. Low-energy operators are not required to have safety sensors, as the door is allowed to come in contact with a user, given that the kinetic energy of the moving door is limited by the reduced moving speed.

  5. Chamberlain Group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chamberlain_Group

    Clicker — a line of universal garage door remotes. Chamberlain, LiftMaster, and Craftsman have interchangeable parts, primarily the gear and circuit boards. The greatest difference between the brands is that Chamberlain and Craftsman operate on a square shaped split-rail system, while LiftMaster consists of one single solid piece of inverted ...

  6. Remote keyless system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_keyless_system

    A vehicle might use a chirp system: two beeps on driver door unlocking, four beeps on unlocking of all doors, a long beep for the trunk or power tailgate or a short beep on locking and arming of the alarm. The functions of a remote keyless entry system are contained on a key fob or built into the ignition key handle itself. Buttons are ...

  7. Keycard lock - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keycard_lock

    There were 32 positions for possible hole locations, giving approximately 4.3 billion different keys. The key could easily be changed for each new guest by inserting a new key template in the lock that matched the new key. [2] In the early 1980s, the key card lock was electrified with LEDs that detected the holes. A keycard with a magnetic stripe

  8. Dog (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dog_(engineering)

    A dog clutch, however, is a binary system, thus requiring that the rotating speeds of the two discs be matched prior to mating to avoid damage by jerk within the system - this can be achieved automatically, such as by implementing a synchromesh mechanism, or manually, as in a crash gearbox.

  9. Key distribution in wireless sensor networks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Key_distribution_in...

    Basically a key predistribution scheme has 3 phases: Key distribution; Shared key discovery; Path-key establishment; During these phases, secret keys are generated, placed in sensor nodes, and each sensor node searches the area in its communication range to find another node to communicate. A secure link is established when two nodes discover ...
