a light sensor configured to receive an energy directly from an energy emitter and to produce a sensed signal from the energy;
a detection device coupled to the light sensor, the detection device
configured to detect a transition state of the sensed signal wherein the transition state is based on receipt of the one or more content received by the housing;
a tampering sensor configured to detect a tampering of the housing; and
a processor coupled to the tampering sensor, the processor configured to activate a second lock mechanism in the event the tampering is detected;
wherein the tampering sensor is coupled to the door;
