Access Control Systems

Axitea's access control services are solutions based on both physical and electronic architecture that prevent the entry of unauthorized persons, vehicles or things into specific areas, while ensuring access to those who are duly authorized.

The functions that an access control system must implement are:

• Recognizing and assessing an access request, 24/7.
• If the access request is legitimate, according to predefined criteria, unblocking the physical obstacle to access, otherwise refusing transit while keeping the obstacle blocked.
• Reporting attempted unauthorized access or possible tampering attempts.

In the areas where access control systems are generally applied, a targeted design must be defined to harmonize physical measures, such as compasses and turnstiles with electronic control equipment, such as badge or biometric readers, metal detectors, cameras and video intercoms.

Axitea can help companies - especially in a health emergency context such as the one generated by Covid-19 - thanks to solutions for measuring body temperature combined with access control: remote temperature detection associated with access control, on a single person or groups of people at the same time, with verification of the presence or absence of PPE (mask).

Access control solutions with biometrics are also available to meet specific needs, through the analysis of fingerprint, hand geometry, facial configuration and iris or voice characteristics.

Access control systems are flanked by time and attendance services, an electronic system that detects the presence of employees in order to manage all payroll-related data, replacing traditional time clocks.

Attendance detection uses essentially the same devices as access control for people recognition, aimed, however, not at activating the systems for unlocking the physical barriers but at recording the name of the person and the start and end time of the work activity.
