I worked for a company decades ago that tried to develop an automatic door unlocking device. The idea was you would have an emitter in your pocket and the door would recognize you and unlock before you turned the knob. In practice, we were never able to overcome the latency problem with fast-moving people who would bang into the door. The potential for litigation was beyond human comprehension, so the project was cancelled.
I think it’s intended for cats. They meow to be let in and out if no human is around or not. I don’t see how it works unless every door is equipped with an electronic lock and cats with opposable thumbs..

Told you to go with the Gerald.
On the other hand, there is one potential big customer for this: The dog.

Kudos for incorporating the material left behind from Pfizer’s earlier presentation.

I don’t fully get it. Can someone explain? Is it because he can just open the door himself?
