Systems and methods for locking device management
A system for locking device management is disclosed. A server can transmit locking device programming instructions for a locking device to a mobile device based on a locking device programming trigger. The mobile device can search for the locking device and transmit the programming instructions to the locking device via wireless signals. The locking device can communicate with the mobile device via wireless signals and execute the programming instructions.
1. A system for managing content information comprising:
a server configured to communicate with one or more mobile devices;
a processing system comprising one or more processors;
a database of locking device status information; and
a memory system comprising one or more computer-readable media, wherein the computer-readable media contain instructions that, when executed by the processing system, cause the processing system to perform operations comprising:
identifying a locking device programming trigger; and
transmitting locking device programming instructions for one or more locking devices to one or more mobile devices based on the locking device programming trigger, wherein the one or more mobile devices are configured to transmit the locking device programming instructions to the one or more locking devices via a wireless signal, automatically, when a mobile device and a locking device are a distance to communicate by one of Bluetooth®, infrared, NFC, Wi-Fi, Zigbee®, and radio signals;
receiving a locking device status information from the one or more mobile devices;
updating the database of locking device status information based on the locking device status information; and,
transferring locking device programming cancellation instructions to the one or more mobile devices based on the locking device status information to stop the one or more mobile devices from searching for the one or more locking devices.
2. The system of claim 1 , further comprising the one or more locking devices, wherein the one or more locking devices are capable of communicating with the one or more mobile devices, each of the one or more locking devices comprising:
one or more locking components;
a wireless receiver capable of receiving wireless signals from the one or more mobile devices;
a locking device processing system, comprising one or more locking device processors, connected to the wireless receiver and capable of controlling the one or more locking components; and
a locking device memory system comprising one or more locking device computer-readable media, wherein the locking device computer-readable media contain instructions that, when executed by the locking device processing system, cause the locking device processing system to perform locking device operations comprising:
receiving locking device programming instructions from the one or more mobile devices via a wireless signal, wherein the locking device programming instructions are transferred from the one or more mobile devices to a respective one of the one or more locking devices, automatically, when the one or more mobile devices and the respective one of the one or more locking devices are a distance to communicate by one of Bluetooth®, infrared, NFC, Wi-Fi, Zigbee®, and radio signals; and
executing the locking device programming instructions, wherein the locking device programming instructions relate to controlling the one or more locking components.
3. The system of claim 2 , wherein each of the one or more locking devices further comprise a wireless transmitter capable of transmitting wireless signals to the one or more mobile devices, wherein the locking device operations further comprise transferring lock status information to the one or more mobile devices based on executing the locking device programming instructions.
4. The system of claim 2 , the locking device operations further comprise activating the wireless receiver, based on a user activation input, from an inactive state incapable of receiving an incoming wireless signal from the one or more mobile devices to an active state capable of receiving an incoming wireless signal from the one or more mobile devices.
5. The system of claim 2 , wherein the locking device operations further comprise: receiving digital certificate information from the one or more mobile devices; and validating the digital certificate information from the one or more mobile devices.
6. The system of claim 1 , the operations further comprise generating a report of locking device status information based on the database of locking device status information.
7. The system of claim 1 , wherein transmitting locking device programming instructions to the one or more mobile devices occurs subsequent the one or more mobile devices initiating an opening operation of the one or more locking devices.
