Access Control Market Development in Internet Environment

In 2015, the penetration of Chinese Internet users will reach 50%, that is, nearly half of Chinese people use the Internet to access the Internet. The Internet has become an inseparable tool for Chinese life and work. In the next two to three years, the mobile Internet will continue to infiltrate our lives and work and will change and improve our lives and work forms in many aspects. With the development of the Internet in full swing, if any industry does not use the power of the Internet to change its thinking and catch up, it will soon be marginalized and even eliminated. In a very simple example, today we take a taxi, most people will use a drip or fast taxi, the original car system can only go to sleep. So what kind of sparks will happen if Internet thinking fills every aspect of our lives and places this power in our access control system?

I. The emergence of EHOME protocol access control

You may encounter this situation: The company's office is distributed in several different places, and it is necessary to aggregate the access attendance records of each place to the headquarters. There is no VPN between several branches. If you go to pull fiber, the cost is too high. high. So how to solve this problem? In the past, I was helpless and could not be solved. Now, the EHOME protocol can easily solve this problem. As long as there is a network, we can connect all the devices together to form a large LAN. Hikvision has taken the lead in fully supporting the EHOME protocol from video to access control devices, which has brought the company closer together and reduced the size of the earth to save users and bring convenience. Similar scenarios are also used in the transportation and energy industries. In small sites and unattended places, the use of such access devices will bring more convenience to users.

Second, what will the mobile Internet bring to the access control industry?

From Apple to Samsung, from millet to Huawei, Gree, who recently made air conditioners, has also announced that he is a mobile phone, which has shocked everyone's attention. With good sales and many benefits, everyone has made a contribution to them. On the other hand, it can be reflected that everyone is now part of the mobile Internet. From kindergarten children to grandfathers who can sell tea eggs, they can use mobile phones to play games and chess. Mobile Internet users are so popular that our access control industry can use this terminal to do what. How to do it?

What NFC function, what 13.56MHZ or 2.4GHZ, etc., is not to open the door to swipe the phone, this is not very early to achieve it? Yes, yes, we said here to open the door, not to open the door, to open the door, to open the door, not to open the door, and not all phones support NFC. Imagine this scenario: After a one-hour traffic jam in the early morning, I finally got to the company, and got stuck at the company's gate. I couldn't take my work card. I couldn't check my attendance. Well, I'll go and apply... I'm tired and I finally get off work. Now, when we look up and see that other colleagues have finished, there is no way to go out. There are many similar situations. How can we solve this problem now? Yes, the mobile phone APP, the mobile phone and the work card number are bound and connected to the controller. The door is opened and the door record is uploaded at the same time to ensure the security of the access control. At the same time, you can view the entry and exit records of all personnel, without having to log in to the client, the browser and other cumbersome operations, you can directly query anytime, anywhere.

The realization of mobile door opening technology seems simple, but if you do business experience and commercial-grade system applications that are even better than swiping cards, there are still many core technologies to break through:

(A) to open the door to experience is better: the desire to open the door of the mobile phone is to make people more convenient, if you need to remove the phone when you open the door, open the APP, select the access control and then open the door, such a complex process is not completed without more than 5 seconds, like this Experience is more troublesome than swiping cards. Users can take cards, swipe cards and receive cards at one go. They can be completed within 3-5 seconds. Therefore, the experience of opening the door to the mobile phone should be within 3 seconds; this requires that the series of operations from the discovery, connection, interaction, and authentication of wireless devices all need to be completed within 3 seconds. Those who have used wifi and Bluetooth products know that wifi is The pairing of access and Bluetooth is more than 3 seconds. In this regard, a great deal of optimization needs to be done on the mobile phone side and the device side.

(II) The system should be more secure: the entrance and exit access control system belongs to the security system, and the security protection is the foundation. It needs to ensure the system is safe and reliable from multiple layers such as the physical layer and the application layer, involving access security, identity security, communication security, etc. Technical guarantees in order to achieve safer and more reliable system security than systems such as RFID and biometrics;

(C) engineering and management should be convenient: access control system is a systematic project, from the equipment installation, deployment, commissioning to the opening of the user permissions, issued, canceled, etc. require strong back-end technical support, especially the installation of the project, new The application of technology should not bring more complicated operations to the project implementers. As with traditional RFID access control systems, it should not be so complicated that engineering personnel find it difficult to install and deploy.

In fact, such a business experience can be perfectly realized. Smart City Technology has launched such commercial products in 2014. At the end of 2014, some community owners of Vanke Real Estate discovered that a new feature “opening the phone” has been added to the “Live here” APP for property promotion. Owners do not need to bring a card. Just walk to the entrance and exit and shake the phone. Can open the door, business experience is very good, completely solve the owners are not willing to bring the card, forgot to bring the card, the owner is also very satisfied with this. In early 2015, other group property companies also launched similar mobile door opening services.

At the same time, the SMS opening function has also been applied to some access control products. Hikvision also walked in the forefront of the industry in this regard. The short message transceiving module is installed on the access controller. Each controller supports short message identification of multiple mobile phone numbers and sends a specific opening code to open the door remotely. Because from the security point of view, the number of mobile phone numbers supported by the controller is set less to prevent the number from leaking. This function solves some emergency situations and greatly facilitates the operation of managers.

Third, biometric products will be civilians

With the development of biotechnology, the threshold of technology is getting lower and lower, and the market demand is increasing. This has attracted more and more manufacturers to join in the production of biometric equipment. The biometric product is no longer high and high, but flies in. Ordinary people's home.

Fingerprint lock products. At present, the degree of community intelligence is getting higher and higher. In addition to peripheral video intercoms and access control devices, intelligent lock devices are gradually introduced on the door of each household. On the one hand, they are tall and convenient to use. Really convenient and intelligent will be introduced to the homes of ordinary people. Fingerprint identification equipment will no longer be a patented product for office space. Due to the development of technology, fingerprint anti-counterfeiting technology has also been further improved, and some simple fake fingerprints can be identified using algorithms such as static electricity and leather. At the same time, due to the influence of the mobile Internet, many devices have already passed the traditional full-offline fingerprint lock through each household's wireless WIFI, and managed the online management of the APP, effectively integrating with the smart furniture, and the fingerprint lock will no longer be valid. Is a simple isolated product, but integrated into the big family of smart communities.

Face recognition products will be more widely used. Because of the simplicity, speed, and security, more and more companies are more inclined to face recognition products. Such as factory areas, offices and other places, often a credit card on behalf of the card, the fingerprint also appeared in the case of false fingerprints, so the facial recognition products by everyone's pro-gaze. The recognition rate of one is getting higher and higher, both of them effectively prevent generation brushing situations, and records can be kept ready for inspection at any time. At the same time, in the security industry, giants such as Hikvision, which is a provider of video content, have turned to face recognition algorithm research, which will stimulate the entire face recognition market even more. Costs are reduced and applications are widely used. All are expected in the near future.

In short, with the rapid development of the mobile Internet, networked and intelligent products will usher in a new era of development. Technological changes will be the trend of the times. All industries must catch up, or they will be eliminated by the society.
