Smart Locks At CES 2024: Palm and Face Recognition, Wireless Power
Multiple companies presented smart locks at CES 2024 this year, but some locks stood out as they are based on atypical technologies, such as palm or face recognition and wireless power. How do these technologies work, and what can limit the wide adoption of such locks?
In this report, IPVM examines some of the locks presented at the show, based on our visits to companies' booths, and provides our projections on the adoption rates.
