Abstract This paper deals with a new approach to implement QR codes in door locks security. In this work an advanced security system is presented using Unique QR Identification (or UQID) code, which is specially designed to be used in door locks. The UQID system presented here is a new methodology implemented to provide security services to hotel rooms along with better hospitality to guests. A guest books a room online on the hotel website and immediately after booking a room a QR code is emailed to the guest. The guest can save this QR code in his phone/smart watch/tablet or any other device with a display. When visits the hotel he simply holds this QR code against the door computer which authenticates whether the right QR code has been presented by the guest and unlocks the door or keeps the door locked accordingly. The QR code sent to the guest at the time of registering for the hotel room is the QR code which is indeed the key to access the room for the guest. Keywords QR code

1 Introduction An electronic lock is usually connected to an access control system and works by means of an electronic current. The use of smart phones have most likely increased popularity of smart locks which have begun to be used more commonly in residential areas. Additionally, smart locks are gaining momentum in co-working spaces and offices. Electronic lock systems implementing, passwords, security tokens, biometrics etc. offer a variety of means of authentication; many of which are Suprakash Mukherjee (✉) AEIE Department, Heritage Institute of Technology, Kolkata, India e-mail: [email protected] Subhendu Mondal MCA Department, Meghnad Saha Institute of Technology, Kolkata, India e-mail: [email protected] © Springer Science+Business Media Singapore 2017 J.K.

non exhaustive. Perhaps the most widely popular door lock is the RFID based swipe card access control which is very popular and is used widely in hotel doors. The proposed system presented here uses implicit web based authentication because of which the guest does not need to carry any extra tangible key in his/her pocket since the system can unlock information get key to the room is in the phone of the guest in the form of an image. The UQID code based entry system is unique as it does away with traditional keys and swipe cards. This system so developed uses a simple web interface where in approved users are added to a MySQL database along with their hash encrypted representative user specific string of the generated UQID code. This UQID code so generated is emailed to the respective user’s address using a simple MTP (Mail Transfer Protocol). The end user client used here in this scheme is an ARM based Linux computer that has capability to scan UQID codes via
