Geran delivers VideoGuard working access demonstration

VideoGuard and Geran Access Products have realised a complete access solution at Videoguard's showroom in Waalwijk. It involves the Trident from manufacturer Turnstar, which is linked to the access module of Genetec's security management platform Security Center.

“Without software you have little in the way of hardware and without hardware you have just as little in the way of software,” says Mark Dannenberg of Geran Access Products. “And since, like VideoGuard, we cater to integrators, we thought it would be a nice idea to realise a complete access solution in the showroom in Waalwijk.” The Trident was not deliberately chosen. Any access product will do, but the Trident is widely used because of its simplicity and ease of use and is therefore representative for demonstrations.

World of possibilities
A so-called bill ticker can of course be easily controlled via an access card, but when combined with Genetec, a world of possibilities opens up. Thanks to the Trident, these can now also be physically demonstrated. For example, it is possible to prevent two people from passing on one access pass, by going through the lock together or passing the pass to each other. Face recognition, biometric identification or, for example, two passes can be used, if someone is only allowed to proceed after a manager offers his pass.
