Abstract
Configuring a sanitization mode for a predetermined time interval for sanitizing a premises. A first predefined pattern is received on a lock associated with the premises from a user within the predetermined time interval to indicate starting of the sanitization process. Subsequently, a second predefined pattern is received on the lock within the predetermined time interval to indicate a completion of the sanitization process. An indicator is displayed based on the first predefined pattern and the second determined pattern and simultaneously communicating the sanitization status to an authorized user.
Claims17
A method comprising:
- configuring a sanitization mode for a predetermined time interval for sanitizing a premises;
- receiving a first predefined pattern on a lock associated with the premises from a user within the predetermined time interval to indicate starting of the sanitization process, by sensing turning of a handle of the lock for a count;
- receiving a second predefined pattern on the lock within the predetermined time interval to indicate a completion of the sanitization process, by sensing turning of a deadbolt of the lock ON or OFF for a count;
- and
- displaying an indicator based on the first predefined pattern and the second predefined pattern indicating a sanitization status and simultaneously communicating the sanitization status to an authorized user.
A system comprising:
- a lock associated with a premises and configured with a sanitization mode for a predetermined time interval for sanitizing the premises, the lock further configured to:
- receive a first predefined pattern on the lock associated with the premises from a user within the predetermined time interval to indicate starting of the sanitization process by sensing turning of a handle of the lock for a count;
- receive a second predefined pattern on the lock within the predetermined time interval to indicate a completion of the sanitization process, by sensing turning of a deadbolt of the lock ON or OFF for a count;
- and
- display an indicator based on the first predefined pattern and the second predefined pattern indicating a sanitization status and simultaneously communicate the sanitization status to an authorized user.
A computer readable medium comprising a memory storing instructions executed by one or more processors, the one or more processors configured to:
- configure a sanitization mode for a predetermined time interval for sanitizing a premises;
- receive a first predefined pattern on a lock associated with the premises from a user within the predetermined time interval to indicate starting of the sanitization process by sensing turning of a handle of the lock for a count;
- receive a second predefined pattern on the lock within the predetermined time interval to indicate a completion of the sanitization process, by sensing turning of a deadbolt of the lock ON or OFF for a count;
- and
- display an indicator based on the first predefined pattern and second predefined pattern indicating a sanitization status and simultaneously communicating the sanitization status to an authorized user.
