h71y6 Posted March 22, 2002 Share Posted March 22, 2002 Would you like to have a 'all-in-one' cell phone that could: A) Lock/Unlock and start your car? B) Act as a remote controller (TV,etc) C) Lock/Unlock your front door? Due to security concerns, let me clarify that it is more secure than carrying your keys in your pocket, as secure as any remote comtroller(?), and definitely more secure than carrying a house key.

X-fibRe Posted March 22, 2002 Share Posted March 22, 2002 cmon guys if we had the technology to make such cell phone, we would put some kind of code for the car, the house and the tv. so they are going to be locked/unlocked,etc with this code. and if you lose the phone, you have to contact immediately the company, and they will have your codes changed by the time you hang up. that sound not so dangerous. also, i want a little 3' color screen on the phone, to watch my favorite divx movies, or just satellite tv :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be out of my field ATM. The cell phone uses Bluetooth and the idea is to carry one thing instead of 3 things which are less secure.

MxxCon Posted March 22, 2002 Share Posted March 22, 2002 such cell phone already exist. any callphone that had Palm PDA in it can unlock/start your car, be remote for your tv/vcr/whatever, unlock your front door(if you have remote entarance) i have software for my palm, with it you can train it to emulate any IR signal. there's even been a story a while ago about some UK thieves that used palmpilot IR to unlock/start cars on parking lots.

That's the problem right there. IR can be intercepted and read easily. And palmpilot is pretty big compare to a handphone. IR is also directional.
