Context

Noku is a secret security door system.

To unlock the door, you need to reproduce the establish knock frequency on the object's center.

This little ninja, thanks to a piezometric sensor will recognise the number, strength and duration of knocks and warn you in time if the code is valid or not. For this, luminous feedbacks guid you for each knock. Good knocks result of red flashing and ends with a green signal if the frequency of knock was properly reproduced. A bad knock will generate a long red light signal, you will have to start from the beginning and try again.

Let Noku protect your home !
