The mechanical shape of the board is optimized to fit in a door handle. One sensor is able to detect the approximation of the hand to trigger the unlocking of the door. A second sensor is foreseen to be touched to lock the door upon departure. This particular shape allows using the board as a starting point in many different applications.
