1. Getting Started

1.1. Overview

There are plenty of products on the market today, offering remote

keys for everything: certainly cars and garages, but also for entry

doors. Some of the products use RF signal, some infrared. The ones

using RF send pre-programmed code. The security of the latter

significantly improved in recent years, once the length of the code

increased, and it became harder to guess.

However, the remote RF keys are still vulnerable to eavesdropping by

thief, who can plant RF detecting device in close proximity, and steel

the code.

Another often annoying inconvenience is that ability to open many

doors requires either hauling around large number of keys, or several

remotes.

This invention aims to introduce universal key system, offering

ability to operate as many locks as necessary with the single device

that can use electronic cryptographically enforced key. It would be

very nice, if some ubiquitous device, which everyone carries around

anyway, could do the job.

1.2. Introducing Yulock™

There actually is such a device: cell phone. Many cell phones on the

market today offer “Bluetooth”: short distance (mostly up to 30 feet)

digital RF communication protocol, used to communicate to headsets,

owners’ computer(s), hands free car phone kits, etc.. The number of

cell phone models on the market offering Bluetooth snowballed in the

past year, and it appears that in a short while there will be practically

no cell phones without one.

On the other side, most phones are also “smart”, i.e. applications can

be developed to run on the phone.

Phone application called “Yulock”, providing an “electronic key”

capability has been developed by Yulock Inc.. In order for Yulock™

to be able to control a lock, electronic add-on device, also built by

Yulock Inc., has to be installed. The device attaches to the lock, and

has ability to communicate with the Yulock™ application on the cell

phone via Bluetooth protocol at the distance of 30 feet or less with the

standard antenna option, and up to 80 feet with the extended antenna
