A company called KeyMe in the United States of America released an app four years ago that allowed you to scan your keys to get as many copies as you wanted. Now it's going a step further by building self-scanning kiosks and constructionof keys, something like automatic locks.
The company KeyMe, he offered until recently one application for iOS and Android that digitally scanned your keys and stored their image in the cloud. From there, if you ever lost your keys you could refer back to the base data and get as many anti-keys as you want for a price of course.
The company announced today that it is taking a step further by building 2.000 kiosks where you can scan anything key you have, either simply or by car (including transceivers). These automated kiosks are for the US market only and will be installed by the end of this year.
In your question about data security, the company says that the kiosks record the transaction in a detailed history and use fingerprint technology to access scanned keys.
It is interesting movement that of KeyME at a time when the market tends to digitize consumer goods and the first locks that now open with fingerprints, commands from a mobile phone, etc., displacing the classic traditional iron keys.
