Project Description
Kisi
Unlocking doors the smarter way
Kisi is a physical access control system for businesses that allows users to securely unlock doors using a smartphone. Unlike standard keyless systems which work
only with RFID or NFC cards, with KISI all you need is a smartphone.

Access made easy
Some people like to use their phone for everything, others don’t. Others would like a temporary link to not have to pick up a card. Depending on use-case and preference Kisi gives you flexible yet secure options to give access to your facility.
- iPhone (BLE) and Apple Watch or Android (NFC) and Android Wear.
- Kisi Passes, Tags or your existing cards.
- Link access, remote unlock for admins or scheduled unlocks.
Unlocking the door with the phone – Pull up the app and press a button – or tap your phone like a card against a Kisi Pro Reader so you don’t have to even open the phone.
Kisi chose Byte Lab to design electronic modules for their access-control system.
Kisi Pro Proximity Wall Reader is a good example of a compact, highly integrated electronic device. The device is powered via an Ethernet cable using PoE technology. It connects to the Internet via WiFi or Ethernet, communicates with smartphones via Bluetooth 4.0. and reads NFC cards using the integrated antenna on the front of the device.
Thanks to our skillful engineering the Electric Imp company, a very important player in the world of IoT, chose us as their Product Design partner.
Byte Lab develops hardware for our access-control system. It functions perfectly.
