The Smart Door Opener will be able to open and close a door when directed to by the smart mobile device. Selecting the “open” or “close” buttons on the display will cause the door to open or close. It will consist of a motor and a piston. It can be mounted on existing doors to add accessibility, allowing the user to navigate their home independently.
