My grandfather invented, marketed, and maybe patented a device on this premise before he died decades ago. I still have one in its retail packaging in my curio cabinet.
IIRC the first iteration he made used a keypad to enter the code, and the second used the blinkers.

- alexchamberlain 3y agoSo they've spent $1.2million to develop a pre-patented device?
- nomel 3y agoThis is low tech, available since the late 80's. It's a bit ludicrous to think it wasn't invented, and reinvented, many times within the last 43 years.
