    Abstract: A latch is configured to be affixed to an inner portion of a door to an enclosure and to engage a catch attached to an inner portion of the enclosure when the door is in a closed position/ A housing is affixed to an outer portion of the door and includes a memory device and a latch controller configured to detect when the latch is no longer within a proximity of the catch. The controller is configured to electronically open the latch to open the access door. The housing also includes an emergency access portal aligned with and providing access through the access door by an instrument to at least the catch to engage the catch and release the access door. The latch controller detects that the latch is no longer within the predetermined proximity of the catch and registers the opening of the latch in the memory device.

    Abstract: A mobile smart container system comprises a housing, an access component configured to secure access to a compartment within the housing when in a closed position, a communication interface configured to wirelessly receive a request to access the compartment, a perceivable output device, an electromechanical latch configured to engage with the access component to releasably lock the access component in the closed position, and a processor. The processor receives and authenticates the request to access the compartment and, in response to receiving and authenticating the request, activates the electromechanical latch to unlock the access component to make the compartment accessible, and outputs, upon actuation of the electromechanical latch, an alert via the perceivable output device to identify the smart container system.
