Abstract

Described herein are systems and methods for enabling access control via mobile devices. Embodiments of the invention have been particularly developed for allowing a user to gain access to a controlled functionality (for example the unlocking of a door) using a smartphone or the like. These leverage short-range wireless communications, such as Bluetooth Low Energy or Near Field Communications.
