Electromagnetic actuator

A system, comprising:

• a magnetic actuator, comprising:
• one or more magnets,
• wherein:
• at least one of the one or more magnets induces mechanical movement by the magnetic actuator,
• the magnetic actuator is controlled by a mobile application associated with a mobile computing device,
• the magnetic actuator is configured to open or close based on identifying a user at the mobile application,
• the mobile application is configured to identify the user based on a code entered by the user, and
• identification data associated with the code is configured to be transmitted via NFC or Bluetooth to the magnetic actuator.

A software program product configured to perform one or more operations for controlling a magnetic actuator, the operations comprising:

• controlling operation of the magnetic actuator using one or more commands received from a mobile application, wherein:
• the magnetic actuator comprises one or more magnets,
• at least one of the one or more magnets induces mechanical movement by the magnetic actuator, and
• the magnetic actuator is configured to open or close based on identifying a user at the mobile application,
• the mobile application is configured to identify the user based on biometric identification at the mobile computing device, comprising at least one of:
• (i) fingerprint identification or (ii) identification using an image of the user generated using a camera associated with the mobile computing device, and
• identification data associated with said identification of the user at the mobile application is configured to be transmitted via NFC or Bluetooth to the magnetic actuator.
