To be granted access and open the door, visitors will require not just two but THREE factors of authentication; an RFID keyfob, their unique PIN, and a one-time passcode sent to their phone via SMS. It's all built using readily-available low-cost components built around a Raspberry Pi (could easily be built with an Arduino, or expanded to include a door alarm.).

@richardbrooks9401
@richardbrooks9401 4 роки тому
I'm so impressed by how easy you make this look. I'm convinced that even I can do it. Here's a question: How would you scale this system up to say a dozen doors in a building and share the same database? And if you were only looking for two-factor authentication (fob & PIN), is there a way to disable the third factor?
@SwitchedOnNetwork
@SwitchedOnNetwork 4 роки тому
ha, thanks! I'm sure you could :) Yes for scaling up that would be very simple - you'd simply create a central database on a separate machine on the network (that could be another Raspberry Pi, or another computer set up as a database server). Then I'd assign each door its own unique ID number (just 1-12 would do) and slightly modify the scripts running on each door to identify themselves by ID. That could allow you to specify only certain doors that a given user has access to, for instance (via an additional table in the db). The logging as well could include the door ID so you know which door has been accessed. Finally, the scripts running on each door would simply connect to the central DB over the network and not run a db locally on each Raspberry Pi. You could probably get away with using a Pi Zero on each door, in lieu of a full size Pi too, to save money and be more compact. You could also make access to some (or all) doors time-sensitive, too... by specifying time windows that user X has access to door Y. With regards to disabling the third factor, yes you can do this by just modifying the function calls to skip that altogether and go straight to unlocking the door. If I had the budget and a space to do this, I'd love to make another video doing this expanded system. If you make this, I'd love to see it and feature a video guide on the channel!

Would there be anything different using a Raspberry Pi 4, Than the others? Thanks
@SwitchedOnNetwork
@SwitchedOnNetwork 3 роки тому
Glad you liked the video! :) Yes everything you've suggested is possible. Beyond the scope of a comment reply to go into the hows and details, obviously, but you're more than welcome to take my code/setup and modify it like that to suit your preferences :) The only difference if using a Raspberry Pi 4, just like if you were building this today on a 3, is that this project is 3 years old so all the code and software versions are from that era - you'll need to update accordingly for newer versions of pretty much everything. So take my video and instructions as a conceptual guide, rather than an exact step-by-step. Good luck!
@AkiraSatsujinki

This is almost perfect for my smart door lock project; except that I'm pretty old school and didn't like the RFID system. I wonder if I could replicate similar system to this, but with a magnetic strip card swipe reader instead. Just swipe and it'll grant access XD Awesome tutorial, and very much understandable even for someone with ADHD like me :D
@AustinBuring
@AustinBuring 2 роки тому
That would be even easier to do, if you just wanted to swipe and get in. If you wanted to add the other factors, you would be able to essentially do the same thing he's doing just replacing the hardware and some of the coding with your proper hardware and code, essentially just replacing the RFID for the mag stripe. They essentially work the same, inputting a code into something, one just uses radio frequency to do it, while the other uses a magnetic strip. If you just wanted the magstripe entry, essentially all you need to do is buy the magstripe reader and the raspberry pi, as well as any other things to operate the electronic door lock and set it up so you swipe and it unlocks. Honestly even using raspi would prolly be overkill, I'd imagine just a simple microcontroller would work, if you aren't gonna make it pull up a profile where you have to input your pin, then and send a temporary authentication code sent to your phone, as there is more processing needed. No need for internet or anything, though, so even a really simple raspi could prolly do it. Like a nano or something. This is just me kinda guessing tho

Firstly, it's a very useful and informative video. Having that said however, this is still 2 factor authentication. The factors in question are something you have, and something you know. Both the fob and your phone are in the "something you know" factor. Typically the other factor would be "something you are", which generally means biometrics.

Hi Rory, thanks and I'm glad you enjoyed the video - despite how old it is now! Great to see people still enjoying it. And yes, I soon realised my mistake at the time (and had the same conversation again and again... then many more times when Raspberry Pi themselves featured this project!). It's technically only 2 factor, although 3 steps :-P And whilst it's open source, it means that anyone can alter it and modify to whatever they like, so could adapt it for fingerprint or retina scanning or something like that. I didn't quite have the budget for those at the time :)

Hello, im a 19 years old portuguese Networking student on my final year, and im required to do a final project for graduation, im love eletronics and your 3-factor authentication door got me even more interested on it. I just wanted to ask if i could do something similar to that as my graduation project. I see that your project uses a touchscreen to show the information and to enter the code, i was thinking if it was possible to change that for a 4x4 keypad and having the messages showing up on a 16x2 lcd. And instead of having the Twilio sms system, having a Fingerprint sensor as the third authentication method. I was looking at your code and i understood a little bit of it but theres things i dont quite understand and im having a hard time adapting your code to use the 4x4 keypad and show the message on the 16x2 lcd. Can you give me some help changing the code, or some hints on how the code works? If someone is experienced in python coding can you help me? I highly appreciate it. Thanks.

Do you mean something biometric such as fingerprint or retina scanner? The answer is absolutely yes! How you'd interface with it would depend on the device and also how it connects to the Pi (eg.

Hey! To add new users simply add them to the database table shown in the video, one new row per user. The ID field for their fob must be unique to that user, and if you have a profile image make sure it's a GIF, in the same dir as the script and then input its filename WITHOUT extension in that column of the table. Regarding active directory, you'd have to write a separate little script to sync data from there into this system, or rewrite this system to query AD instead.

@SwitchedOnNetwork 6 років тому
+Jay Shawver Yes this would be ideal for that. You could centralise the database and then modify the code sightly to also include a new database table column with a site_id which corresponds to each office location. You might also want a failsafe in case of connectivity issues between sites and central database, maybe local copies in a replication setup or something. Let us know what you end up doing! :)

@SwitchedOnNetwork

Hi there! If you're familiar with installing a LAMP stack, that will give you a web server (Apache), database (MySQL) and the PHP language to tie the two together - this will enable you have the web interface to access the database, which is callled phpMyAdmin. Install the LAMP stack, then install phpMyAdmin - there are tonnes of guides on how to do this, so I won't go into full details here in the comments. Then, download the door_lock.sql file from my GitHub repo and use the Import feature of phpMyAdmin to import that. For the script, you can use the "git clone" command to pull down the script from the github repo (github.com/paulfp/Three-Factor-Security-Door) You'll need to insert your database username/password into the lock.py script before running. I've also written up a more in-depth text version of the video tutorial here: www.switchedonnetwork.com/2017/11/10/build-the-ultimate-door-security-system-with-three-factor-authentication/ Good luck and enjoy!

Can I set this system up to handle 10 different locks hooked in to the raspberry pi and a selection screen on the touch screen so the user can select which lock they want to affect before they enter their credentials? If that much works the only other thing I'd need it to do is once the first user approaches and open and closes a door the second and all users coming after can't open that particular door again until the first user has come back and open and closed it. It's essentially a tool storage cabinet that everyone needs to gain access to any of the items in it at a moments notice but we need know who took which tool and to have a record that they did indeed return it or to alert us that it's been x number of days and the tool hasn't been returned.

A very cool video Paul. I'm completely new to Pi and am looking for things to mess around with - this security system looks like it would be fun to try. I think I understood 99%+ of your instructions but I must have missed the bit where you showed us where you were connecting the PSU to the mains(!) Have you stripped the plug and done that inside the wall as well? Or have you poked a hole through the wall to reach a socket? (I doubt it's the latter.) One other question (just to prove what a novice I am lol): could you use your phone as your input screen or would that completely negate the need for the Pi? Cheers.
@SwitchedOnNetwork
@SwitchedOnNetwork 3 роки тому
Thanks, I'm glad you liked the video and that it's still helping people out after 3+yrs! On my little protype mockup for the video I didn't do anything fancy with the PSU's power lead, as it wasn't inside a real stud wall or anything, so I just plugged it into an extension lead. I could have mounted a socket like this (ebay.to/371StdR) inside the wall on the internal side I guess, or hardwired into the mains, but as it wasn't a permanent setup I didn't need to do anything like that. If you're doing anything like that or installing inside a real stud wall, make sure you research and comply with all local building codes and stay safe! Re: your phone, you'd still need the Pi as that controls the relay switch via the GPIO ports for the electronic door strike, but you'd need a way to connect your phone screen's inputs into the Pi, and it also looks up credentials in the database. You could expand the system so that the RFID reader accepts input from a "virtual fob" via your phone's NFC chip, that would be cool!
@furiouszed

@@SwitchedOnNetwork Wow!, that was a quick reply to a 3 year old thread! Thanks. Yes indeed, if I go ahead with this, I'd be fitting inside a real wall so, re the eBay link, I'm assuming you would fit that with the wiring on the INside of the wall (as it would be on the inside of a PC chassis) and on the OUTside of the wall, you'd need to have a kettle plug permanently plugged into the mains? Thanks again. Consider me subscribed!
@SwitchedOnNetwork

Thanks for the sub! Yeah you'd fit something like that with the wiring inside and the socket on the outside.

Hey Paul This is a wonderful project that uses so many of the functions of Python and the Raspberry Pi. Your tutorial was so well documented and delivered. I do have a question though.... I want to remove the SMS authentication and add a step that verifies a number from a separate table in the MySQL database. I can build the table with no problem but I need to figure out where to put the additional code and what it might look like. I also want to make sure and comment out only the SMS configuration if that is possible. Any help would be appreciated!

@SwitchedOnNetwork
@SwitchedOnNetwork 3 роки тому
Hey there! To add a logo, instead of your picture, you simply need to put a photo in GIF format in the same folder/directory as the Python script, then add the filename (without extension, as it can only be GIF) into the database field for your user. If you want to add this to the welcome screen, look at lines 143-145 of the code (github.com/paulfp/Three-Factor-Security-Door/blob/master/lock.py) to see how this is done and how to add it to the welcome screen. To add a clock to the welcome screen, you'll need to create a label for your clock and then set a timer of some sort to update it every second, whilst it's on display, with the current time in HH:MM:SS format. You should then clear this timer when this screen is removed, and start it again when it displays again. That's the general concept of how to do both your things, you'll now have to do the leg work yourself on how to turn that concept into reality. Have fun and enjoy learning! :)

Failing that, modify the script slightly so you can figure out what's going on - get it to print out to the screen what code it thinks it's getting from the card, for example, and just check every single micro-stage of the process in that way until you find the issue.

How would I do it if I were to use a 4 digit passcode that’s the same every time
@SwitchedOnNetwork
@SwitchedOnNetwork 3 роки тому
you mean instead of the SMS? or just on the virtual keypad? In any case, you can just modify the code and either hard code it into the code itself (not ideal) or have that 4 digit code saved in either a database or a flat text file.

So I figured out why I couldn't find the Lxsession file, apparently this folder was in /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart. So I attempted to edit this file and add the line you noted and still no luck. I cant seem to figure what else could be wrong. Can I transfer the lxsession file to .config, if so how can this be done?

Yes, I believe you can copy that autostart file (using the cp command) to: ~/.config/lxsession/LXDE-pi/

I am trying to make a sudo-escape room for my office. The last obstacle will be this device, with a key fob and the pin. I also plan on hooking up a speaker to the stereo port on the pi, and would like to either play a sound file or do text to audio (ex: wrong, try again or success!). So I dont need multiple pins/fobs or the SMS portion. So I think I can just keep everything in the python script, and not need apache/php/mysql. It would even be nice, for the person starting the clock, to be able to do it on this device, and if they run out of time (30 mins), a time's up/siren goes off. Thoughts?

Awesome idea! Yes if you want to simplify it you could scrap using the database and either hardcode everything into the Python script or use flat .txt files on the Pi (or something like SQLite). I look forward to seeing it when you're done :)

I can’t get the rfid reader to work on the pi. Works on windows. Tried just about everything. Lsusb shows it on bus 001 device 007: id 6688:6850 Looks like it maps to /dev/usb/hiddev0

Figured out my problem. I bought the RFID reader/writer. Once I bought the RFID reader, everything worked. Will share a video when everything is finalized.
