Biometric access control & it's benefits

A sound access control system is essential for shops, logistics companies, hotels, and holiday parks. A good and modern access system ensures you see and know who enters a building or room. In addition, you give authorized persons easier and faster access to the right areas. The struggles with physical keys (keys that go missing, making new keys for new employees) also become a thing of the past with a contemporary form of access management.

How does biometric access control work?

But how exactly does biometric access control work in practice? First, you scan one of the person's body parts, such as a fingerprint, the iris, handprint, face, or even the voice.
Then you save the biometric data in a database, or a digital map, for example. Does an authorized employee, visitor, or guest arrive at a gate, building, or space they want access to? Then a reader makes a new scan of the body part, and the device checks whether the data matches the identity information stored in the database or on the card.
