Leave your keys behind and unlock doors just with a tap of a CalypsoKey, hidden in your CalypsoCase.


Your iPhone is your key. With an NFC equipped CalypsoCase.


Never lose your keys again. Leave them behind and unlock doors just with a tap of a CalypsoKey, hidden in your CalypsoCase.


Featuring the missing identification potentials of your iPhone. We are introducing sensational new near field communication (NFC) possibilities for your iPhone with the CalypsoKey.


Replace your keys. Open doors. Access your apartment. Check in at your office building. Open the garage. All with just a short wireless tap of your CalypsoCase. No apps and no charging are needed.


The built-in dual-band RFID antenna replaces your entire portfolio of identification cards with one CalypsoCase.


CalypsoKey is available for CalypsoRing, CalypsoLoop and CalypsoCabrio designs.


Want the jolly technical details? CalypsoKey has one 13.56 MHz RFID, ISO 14443A antenna with 1k memory capacity and a second 125kHz RFID antenna built-in. Compatible with most RFID NFC worldwide access points.


How it works:


The CalypsoKey has two antennas, covering two spectrums at the same time. That way most of worldwide RFID access points are covered and you can use the CalypsoKey for numerous occasions.


Each transmitter has its own unique secured ID. This ID is used by the access points when they look up in their database if this ID is permitted to access and enter.


You need to pair your locking system with your CalypsoKey and you are ready to enter only by tapping your CalypsoCase with CalypsoKey to the access point.


The CalypsoKey NFC antenna is located on the front side of the CalypsoCase (CalypsoCrystal logo side) in the center.


Example:


1. You own an radio frequency locking system. You can enter your door only with a special key by tapping the lock. 2. Get an CalypsoCase with CalypsoKey. 3. Set your locking system in to programming mode with a master key (see your locking system manual for instructions) and program the lock to allow access to your new CalypsoCase with CalypsoKey. 4. You can now use your CalypsoCase with CalypsoKey to easily enter your door.
