I’n not quite satisfied with the concept of this image at the moment, it was mostly a quick and dirty render, anyhow I think it fits the illustrationfriday’s topic of the week…I think. I might revise this render, probably adding more contrast between the old mechanical lock and an extreme high tech fingerprint recognition interface.

On a website I saw a doorlock system using fingerprints as keys to secure you house, the all thing was quite expensive, from the pictures I saw the interface was extremely simple, reduced to the scan area where you press you thumb and the system recognize your unique fingerprint and let you in, it was so simple and minimalistic that a thought came to my mind, what if a “happy-go-round” fellow decide to have a little fan and smash the cover screen of the scanner…mmm, I hope they included some alternative method to unlock your door, otherwise your house wil not be only secure from intruders, but fro its own owner. I wouldn’t be surprise if they didn’t think about it, I see pretty stupid things everyday that I always think “why they didn’t think about it”.

It seems that most common locks found in the every day routines are quite easy to open, I know it’s not something new but honestly I was shock how some guys can unlock a door in just a matter of seconds just using what is called a bumpkey. Here’s a video of an eleven year old girl bumpkeying a lock.

Another one
