Enhancements for Users
Owners of the SwitchBot Lock and SwitchBot Lock Pro can enhance their systems with the Keypad Vision, which can be bought separately. This accessory lets you unlock your door using advanced 3D facial recognition technology that boasts a mere 0.0001% error rate and keeps data locally stored. SwitchBot claims that this “iPhone-grade” structured light tech can unlock your door in just one second. Moreover, the combination of infrared lighting and dual sensors makes the facial recognition function even in low light conditions.
Multiple Unlocking Options
In addition to facial recognition, the SwitchBot Keypad Vision also supports various unlocking methods such as fingerprint scanning, passwords, NFC, voice commands, and even your smartphone or smartwatch, along with a traditional physical key. The company indicates that it will automatically activate Night Mode for quieter locking, with noise levels under 20 dB. If linked to one of the brand’s hubs, users can remotely check the device’s status via the SwitchBot app or receive alerts for potential forced entry. The built-in battery is claimed to last for a year, and the device has an IP65 rating for dust and water resistance. The keypad dimensions are 131 x 65 x 30 mm (approximately 5.16 x 2.56 x 1.18 inches), and it weighs 205 g (around 7.23 oz).
