Description of Invention
The growing adoption of smart locks has led to increased battery waste, adding to Malaysia’s 65,280.14 metric tonnes of e-waste in 2023—of which only 21.1% was recovered. Improper disposal of lithium-ion batteries poses serious environmental risks, including soil and water contamination. Despite rising eco-consciousness, sustainable, battery-free smart lock alternatives remain scarce in the local market. Eco-Secure addresses this gap with an innovative, battery-free smart lock solution that enhances home security while minimizing environmental impact—promoting greener living through smarter design.
