About
Tip Tap Mat is a specially designed system that allows you to unlock doors with your feet. Pressure sensors under the mat detect your movements then transmit the data to the door’s lock. When the correct combination is entered, the door is unlocked. Tip Tap Mat can be operated by everyone and is ideal in situations where the user can unlock the door without having to put down shopping bags, making it a hassle free experience.
