In the constant pursuit of innovation and convenience, MyLock has developed a multi-platform solution that enables the daily use of Smart Lockers and remote user management. This solution revolutionizes locker administration, providing complete control through three different platforms. In this article, we will explore in detail the remote management platform and its various functionalities.

Remote Management Platform

Introduction and Authentication

MyLock has created a remote management platform for administrators, allowing remote operations on lockers and users with access to them, as well as real-time system usage monitoring.

The Remote Management Portal is a website accessible from any operating system and device, including smartphones. Access is restricted to administrators with valid credentials provided previously.

From the Remote Management Portal, administrators have full control of the system. They can view the usage and status of each station, as well as perform the following remote operations:

Control Panel

After logging in, administrators are taken to the control panel’s homepage. This page provides an overview of the selected locker station(s). Additionally, it presents usage and deposit statistics, indicating the number of unique users and the total registered deposits.

Station Management

The control panel also displays the status of each locker station. Details include whether the station is active or inactive, the total number of deposits registered to date, current usage as a percentage, contact details for support, and the last recorded activity.

Usage History

Administrators can examine the usage history of the selected stations and lockers. The history includes information about deposits, retrievals, administrator operations, system updates, and restarts.

Remote Locker Operations

The platform allows administrators to choose and operate multiple lockers simultaneously. This feature streamlines batch operations, such as assigning access rights or configuring parameters. Administrators can select one or several lockers from a station or group of stations and perform actions such as opening doors, releasing lockers, locking, or marking as dirty.

Parameter Configuration

The configuration section allows administrators to edit parameters for the current station. This includes authentication options, opening and maintenance settings, lock and dirt configurations, and on-site management options.

User Management

User management can be done through a REST API provided by MyLock, allowing automatic synchronization with the client’s systems. Administrators can add, delete, and edit users individually or in batch mode. Additionally, the platform provides search and filtering tools for more efficient administration.

Exploring the Possibilities: Smart Solutions for Locker Administration

MyLock‘s Remote Management Platform represents a step forward in Smart Locker administration. It provides administrators with unparalleled control over the system, enabling efficient management and optimal use of the lockers. The innovation behind this platform promises a safer and more convenient experience for both users and administrators.

We hope this article has provided clarity about the innovative functionality that drives remote user management in MyLock‘s Smart Lockers. We remain at the forefront of delivering innovative solutions that enhance our users’ experience. The invitation is to stay tuned for future updates and improvements to our platform.

MyLock participated in MOVE 2023, a prominent event in the field of urban mobility. During our presence, we established new contacts in the industry and explored potential strategic collaborations.

We had a booth where we showcased our security and accessibility solutions. We had the opportunity to interact with several individuals interested in our smart locking and access management technologies. These interactions allowed us to establish new industry contacts, promote our brand, and initiate discussions on new applications where our current solution can play a significant role.

MyLock values and actively supports events like MOVE 2023, which promote innovation and the development of sustainable urban mobility. Our participation in this event in London was just the beginning, and we eagerly look forward to participating in future related events. This will enable us to stay at the forefront of the latest trends and advancements in the field of mobility, ensuring that our solutions remain relevant and up-to-date.

We appreciate and support events that foster innovation and sustainable development. We eagerly anticipate participating in future events where we can showcase our smart solutions and stay updated to continue contributing to the advancement of urban mobility.

In the current context of transition towards a greener and digital economy, European funds present a great opportunity for the new mobility sector.

Sustainable Mobility Takes Off in Cities: MyLock’s Contribution to the Metrolinera Project

The use of electric scooters as a sustainable transportation alternative is gaining popularity in cities worldwide. To support this initiative, Transports Metropolitans de Barcelona (TMB) has launched an innovative project called Metrolinera that allows users to safely store and recharge their electric scooters. MyLock has contributed to this project by installing its XXL lockers at the Ciutadella Vila Olímpica metro station in Barcelona.

Users can access the MyLock service by downloading the app, and they can recharge their electric scooters with the energy generated by the metro’s braking system. This not only promotes sustainable mobility but also reduces carbon emissions.

At the Ciutadella Vila Olímpica. station, MyLock’s lockers provide ample space to store and charge even the largest electric scooters on the market. Our remote technical support is available during regular operating hours, and users can contact us for any questions or concerns about the service.

The Metrolinera project is an innovative solution that addresses the growing need for sustainable transportation alternatives in cities. It is an example of how cities can leverage their existing infrastructure to promote green initiatives and encourage people to adopt sustainable transportation alternatives.

At MyLock, we are proud to be part of this initiative and committed to promoting sustainable and efficient mobility. We hope this project serves as an inspiration to other cities worldwide to adopt sustainable transportation solutions and contribute to a more sustainable future.
