At VIS Systems, we are proud to be providing cutting edge biometric facial recognition technology that is a rapid, safe, and contact free access control system, designed for construction site security.

About Our Facial Recognition System

We understood that there was a clear issue with how construction site access control was operating, with the spread of germs between staff and the corners that could be cut when it came to security, it was important we introduced an alternative. 

For that reason, we began using facial recognition technology on our products to commit to a pursuit for heightened security. 

Our Facial Recognition product was shortlisted for the Construction News specialist contribution to construction award in 2022 for helping to keep sites safe during the pandemic with contactless site access control.

Compared with other options now available in the marketplace, our modern day plug and play solution has been rigorously tried and tested across a variety of sectors from fit-out to major new build and civil engineering projects.

How Do Facial Recognition Systems Work?

A facial recognition system from our team works to provide a security system that is sophisticated and driven by AI software. 

Prior to staff starting work, they will have their face scanned so it can be stored on the cloud for future use of facial recognition, this will then allow them to enter the site freely, without the need of keycards, fobs or costly guards.

At the first instance, the personnel attempting access will have their image captured, this camera can work in both light and dark settings making it secure all year round.

The biometric technology then matches the face to the correct profile, allowing or denying access. 

This takes just seconds and reduces unnecessary delays. On construction sites, this is crucial to ensure that access is only granted to the correctly trained people, making for a safer environment for all and reducing the risk of you becoming liable for incidents that could have been avoided.

This facial recognition system is how access is granted through security turnstiles, gates and or barriers. This makes your life easier, knowing you can rest assured that the only people on site are the ones that are qualified to be there.

VIS Facial Recognition stands out as one of the safest, touch free and fastest biometric access control systems on the market. Traditional fingerprint technology and access cards can be very unhygienic, expensive and prone to security breaches as people often lose their cards. The VIS facial recognition system offers an advanced, hygienic and efficient solution to protect and control access to your sites.

Is VIS facial recognition suitable for various construction projects?

Yes, our facial recognition has been implemented across different sectors. Its scalability and adaptability make it a great option for your security for construction sites and properties of all sizes. Facial recognition will keep your site secure by controlling site access through advanced technology.

What are the benefits of facial recognition?

Other systems like fingerprint readers were commonly used but caused ques and frustration at the turnstiles due to mis-reads and human error. Cards are a quick access solution but time consuming to manage due to them being lost and passed around. Facial recognition in contactless so removed any human error and setup correctly, is the most advanced technology to maintain a secure and productive construction site.
