Alocity Facial Recognition Access Control

Overview: Access Control

Access control systems are electronic security methods used to identify authorized individuals and authenticate them for entry into a building or restricted area. They can be in the form of an ID card, an app, or facial recognition technology. An access control system ensures your employees are safe while also securing any equipment, information, data, or other valuable assets inside the building. 

Access control readers allow only authorized individuals to enter the premises. You set the parameters of where, when, and for who access is authorized. Each user must receive credentials so that the system recognizes them as an authorized entrant. Every credential is personalized with a specific user’s data. This way, you can track employee entrances and movements—including any unauthorized attempts or suspicious behaviors. 

Facial recognition has a combination of security and convenience that is unparalleled in any other kind of access control technology. The access control readers scan each person’s face and check to see if they are registered with the system. If there is a match, the person is granted entry. If not, the door stays locked.

With success stories from companies such as Mission Foods, Alocity is a leader in the facial recognition access control industry.

Convenience 

Facial recognition access control is a convenient way to protect your facility. This convenience begins at the very first step: installation. You can easily connect facial recognition to your existing access control system to get an upgrade without the hassle of a complete replacement. Alocity is set up to integrate with RFID card readers, door and window sensors, environmental monitoring, and so much more.

With Alocity’s selfie enrollment, authorizing users is as easy as taking a picture. Send each employee a personalized link where they will upload a selfie. Alocity does the rest. Just like that, they have access to any buildings or areas that you choose. 

You’ll never have to reach for a keycard or an app again. Facial recognition technology is hands-free, so you don’t have to worry about juggling bags, drinks, and your access control credentials. Authorized users simply walk up to the reader and the door unlocks for them. 

Have a guest coming to visit? Send them a temporary facial recognition cloud key—no app required—or use the reader as an intercom. Alocity’s two-way talk allows for people on the inside and outside of your secure areas to talk to each other. See a live video feed of the person at your door before deciding to grant them entry. There is also the option to set up Smart Dial: visitors can tell the reader who they are coming to see and the system will automatically route the call to the appropriate person. 

Manage your access control system remotely. The cloud-based technology allows you to check on your system from anywhere—work, home, or even while on vacation. You can get motion alerts, see who enters and exits your building, and lock doors whether you are on the property or not.

Security

Security is the most important part of an access control system. Facial recognition adds an additional layer of security that other forms of access control do not offer. RFID cards can be swiped by anyone—regardless of if they are the intended user or not. With 3D face verification it is impossible to fake an identity.

Access control is not limited to the outside of your building. Set up multiple points of access control to restrict who enters your building and, once inside, which rooms they have access to. Allow personnel to enter some parts of the building without giving them full access to sensitive equipment, information, data, or other valuable assets inside the building.

Security extends not only to the physical world but also the digital. Alocity is encrypted to ensure your system stays secure on both fronts. 

Facial recognition readers also act as security cameras. Whether you want to perform a detailed inspection or just do a quick once over, you can watch a live feed showing multiple points of entry at the same time on one screen. Get an overview of what is happening at every access point at once. 

Alocity readers will send real-time notifications for video and sound events. This way, you can know instantly when someone is at your door and react accordingly. Alocity’s AI can differentiate between humans, objects, and vehicles, so you won’t get any junk notifications. 

Create automated door unlock schedules for convenience or to prepare for emergencies. Real-time alerts can automate a lockdown according to your specifications, ensuring a quick response to potential threats.
