As far as devices go that conform to the whole Internet of Things and connected devices ideology, this is by far one of our favorites. This isn’t a little plug that monitors energy usage or something to turn you kettle on from within your car. It’s actually a very intelligent lock for your home that allows or denies access based on enabled Bluetooth devices. It’s secure, gorgeous to look at, is compatible with Apple’s HomeKit which means you can use Siri on iPhone to lock or unlock your door, and even keeps a dynamic and growing log of who enters and exits the home.
