Very good idea. I like the potential, however the video doesn't answer the main Challenge's point: Is this a low power solution? How long will the 4 AA batteries last? Specially if these batteries are needed to power the servo. As a consumer this should be the main concern. If the batteries need to be replaced often, then this product won't sell...
Not very secure if everyone knows your password. Alternatively, using voice fingerprinting would seem like a bit much for this microcontroller to handle.
My sentiments exactly...also. Isn't it so much easier to reach into your pocket and grab a key rather than use two hands to access a menu on your watch then tap in a sequence to get your door to unlock? Usually the best solution is often the simplest
Presumably because you wear your watch all the time. Hopefully (if your sequence isn't too long), the time it takes you to get through the menu system and do the tapping is less than the time required to get out your keys and open the lock.
1.- where can i download the file for this project???
2.- would it be possible to incorporate a data gathering memory to register which device unlocked the system, what time and how many times in a definite period of time??

I would love to see this on the market! But I could see its malfunctioning and then being locked out. But great idea.

How does the encryption work? If it's 128-bit it's got to be symmetrical encryption (I hope). Do you use some kind of challenge-response?

Very well done guys!
I've been doing a bunch of developing with the Chronos watch myself. Such a powerful little tool, there's so much you can do with it!
I was going to use the same application as you, but use it for my car.
I voted you up on the contest site.
