Siri unlocks the door
You go to the locked door of your apartment and speak into the phone: “Tell the door to open!”, Wait about 15 seconds - and the lock opens. Such "wonders" of technology are quite real with the use of Siri, SMS and WiFi-lock with a homemade Arduino scheme.
American developers have published instructions on how to do this. The system unlocks the door through Siri or by pressing a button on the phone, via SMS or a web application. In addition, you can remotely check the openness / closure of the door, receive SMS if someone knocks on the door, and unlock the door without a key with a secret knock.

Hack for Siri begins by creating a new door contact in your phone, with a phone number that receives an SMS on the lock. For the server component, Google App Engine is used, which can be used free of charge for such small projects. In addition, a small application is written for the phone, which sends messages and tracks the status of the door. Receive and send SMS through Twilio service.
All source codes are published on github: https://github.com/cclaan/lockerino .
The total cost of parts for the device is about $ 170, but it can be reduced if you use the parts you have, many of them are quite standard. More than half the cost falls on the Arduino WiFi module for $ 90, which should soon become cheaper. Alternatively, you can get a cheaper Ethernet Pro module, but it requires a long Ethernet cable.
In the near future, detailed step-by-step instructions for creating such a device for the site instructables.com will be created. Now the instruction includes a diagram and three videos.
