Their usage is expanding due to widespread mobile internet access, allowing consumers to connect to online platforms and services anytime, anywhere. Smartphones enhance smart lock controllers by enabling remote operation, real-time notifications, and secure access management from any location. They improve home security and convenience by allowing users to lock or unlock doors, share digital keys, and monitor entry activity directly from their devices. For instance, in November 2024, Eurostat, the Luxembourg-based official statistical office of the European Union, reported that in 2023, around 89% of EU residents aged 16-74 living in cities used smartphones to access the internet, compared with 86% in towns and suburbs and 82% in rural areas. Therefore, the increasing smartphone penetration is driving the growth of the smart lock controller market.

Major companies in the smart lock controller market are focusing on developing advanced products, such as 3D facial recognition systems, to enhance security, improve convenience, and reduce dependence on physical keys. 3D facial recognition systems are biometric authentication technologies that use thousands of infrared points to generate a high-resolution, millimeter-level facial map for near-instant and secure access. For instance, in May 2025, SwitchBot, a China-based smart home automation company, launched the Lock Ultra Vision Combo. This retrofittable smart lock features a 3D facial recognition system using over 30,000 infrared points to authenticate users within 1 second, with a false recognition rate below 0.0001%. It includes a versatile FastUnlock system and up to 18 unlocking methods, including auto-unlock, NFC cards, and fingerprint recognition, enabling seamless access without physical keys.
