ABSTRACT:
An optical key reader for door locks is disclosed including optical scanning means for detecting a code pattern on a key unit when the unit is randomly oriented in an area near a given surface; the detected code being then compared by comparator means with a predetermined code which is stored in the reader. If a match is found in this comparison, the comparator means generates an actuation signal which is coupled to an electrically-actuatable securing means to cause the securing means to allow access through a door.
