Camera Terminal (CT)

The Camera Terminal (CT) is an easy but highly secure system that easily can be placed onto a wall. Its purpose is to grant or not grant access to members, visitors or employees. At the instant that one looks into the camera, a signal will be send to a computer.That remote computer will then search in its database whether there is a picture corresponding with the NIR picture taken by the camera earlier on. If a corresponding picture is found, the computer will check if that person is or is not allowed to enter. If match is not found, access will not be granted. A signal will then be send back to the CT, and access will or will not be granted. Temporary access can also be granted manually by an authorized person from behind the computer.

Benefits: This terminal is a cost-effective solution that embodies all Near-Infrared Face Recognition features. The prime advantage of the CT is that it requires little additional investment in hardware, as it links to any common PC through a network cable. For outdoor use, this is the ideal solution. Providing the PC is recent and has sufficient memory, there is not much limitation to the number of member entries and data. It is easily mounted on a wall and can be quickly moved to other locations as well.

This solution is ideal for small business facilities that want to limit their initial investment but?still have a larger number of potential visitors (hundreds) to cover. An upgrade to ST or MT is possible at no extra cost (conditions apply).

The downside of the CT is that it does not embed a screen and so registration has to be done at the PC and so it is less convenient and appeals less attractive than the other Authenmetric terminals.

The CT comes with a USB dongle that needs to be plugged into the PC at time of usage. The registration of new members to access the premises can not be done while other people?are accessing the location. So we advise to put the PC as close to the camera as possible, but inside the room from where people access for safety reasons.

The CT camera comes with 1,000 people enrollments standard, but can be upgraded remotely to more enrollments through an upgrade of the dongle.

The CT we advise for any entrance has 2 terminals. One for access, the other one for exit and enrolment. Both terminals (CT102 or CT202) can be hooked-up to the same PC which has a permanent USB stick to activate the face recognition system. The system can be connected to doorlock?via doorlock box. Registration happens at PC through application running on PC under Windows.
