Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak demonstrated the lock with the accompanying SPG app on his iPhone (http://www.imore.com/iphone-6) on video. Essentially, users launch the SPG app on their iPhone and then just tap their phones to the lock, wait a few seconds, and then the door opens.</p> <!--break--> <p>With the SPG app, hotel visitors can sign up for a Bluetooth key so they can skip the check-in and wait time at the front desk. When they arrive at a participating SPG property, they can go straight to their room and use their iPhone as a room key. The lock and the phone communicate with each other using Bluetooth tech.</p> <p>SGP had also announced that it will be expanding (http://www.imore.com/you-can-now-enter-your-room-your-iphone-certain-starwood-hotels) the keyless tech to the Apple Watch (http://www.imore.com/apple-watch) next year.</p> <p>Source: SGP (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5sX1OklFjps)</p> </div></div></div><div id="comment-wrapper-nid-28677"></div><img width='1' height='1' src='http://tipb.com.feedsportal.com/c/33998/f/616881/s/410d5dd5/sc/4/mf.gif' border='0'/><br clear='all'/>
