Thermal cameras have become a hot topic over the past few months, but the reliability of these have been deemed unreliable by the MHRA. Our sister company, Alliot Technologies is the UK’s exclusive distributor of the Kentix SmartXcan body temperature sensor. Unlike other devices on the market, this smart device uses sensors to provide a core temperature reading via the eyes as well as the forehead. Compliant with the IEC80601-2-59 regulation for medical use, this sensor can be simply integrated with 2N systems to enable/restrict access based on the temperature reading.
The new 2N LTE Verso is now available to order from ProVu. Featuring the same elegant design and compatible modules as the popular IP Verso, this new model offers a HD camera to provide a unique LTE door entry solution with video.

What options are available?
Keypad – There are mechanical keypads and touch-sensitive keypads available, allowing the user to enter their PIN in order to gain access to the building.
RFID – There are several standards that the 2N readers work with, allowing the user to swipe their fob or ID card, or even their smartphone in NFC-enabled reader, to gain access to the building.
Fingerprint – Arguably the most secure option, 2N’s fingerprint reader ensures that no-one can gain access to the wrong areas.
Bluetooth – Paired with a user’s smartphone, the Bluetooth option allows for very secure entry, as it can be set to have the user unlock their smartphone in order to input a code before the door will open. It can also allow opening from a distance which would be useful on vehicle gates where getting out of the vehicle is inconvenient.
As well as access control, you can purchase a matching reader to go inside the door and build an accurate clocking in/out system, you can even purchase more than one method of authentication to make your premises more secure.
