Abstract
An intelligent door lock system has a position sensing device configured to be coupled to a drive shaft of a lock device. The position sensing device senses position of the drive shaft to assist in locking and unlocking a lock of a lock device. An engine with a memory is coupled to the positioning sensing device and to a circuit. A faceplate and a ring, in at least a partial surrounding relationship to the faceplate, are provided. The faceplate and the ring define a cavity where at least a portion of a lock of the lock device resides. At least one of the ring and the faceplate is electrically isolated from the circuit. An energy source is coupled to the circuit. A device converts energy into mechanical energy is coupled to the circuit, positioning sensing device and the drive shaft. The device that converts energy is coupled to the energy source to receive energy from the energy source.
