  • Abstract
    People may have difficulty accessing the entry door to their house because it is difficult for them to turn a key or they cannot maneuver a wheelchair into a position to either open the door or grasp the doorknob. The Automatic Door Opener is designed to pneumatically open or close a door by remote control using radio frequency communication technology. A fingerprint recognition system is also installed for security purposes preventing unauthorized users from gaining entry
