The Eugene Maker Space is in need of an electronic door locking mechanism. This will make key management really simple because every key holder will have their own separate key that can be revoked at any time. Clif was working on a USB key based system at one point in time. There are other possibilities as well such as RFID or smart cards. We should build a good system for the space and log all relevant information about it here.

Similar but with an iPhone: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0c5FKhMCjT0
Similar but with analog distance sensor and plays cute tones: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R9S8hlJDeUQ
This one uses a VCR worm gear assembly for running the dead bolt, which actually pushes the door latch in!

Text message powered, with different type of deadbolt.

Optionally, when leaving; Close door, authenticate, and press button to lock, (default is unlock). This logs you out of the space.
Roll the (Optional) alarm system terminal into it. Which consists of a 4x4 keypad, backlit LCD and blinky LEDs.
Initially use ethernet, then later when we build a CAN or LIN network, and swap the controller for a lessor one that does just one of those. The first controller can become the CAN/LIN to ethernet bridge. Use headers like found in a PC for disk / reset / power leds etc... for connections to the MCU board. Later just slide the wires onto the new controller. Could use the Teensy++ 2.0 for a LIN node, but it doesnt have CAN. Might be awkward for audio.
Door should have a door closer so that if it is unlocked and "Buzzed" open but no one enters, it can be relocked automatically. There may be a security camera near the door but on a separate system.
