Time Management Accessories
Accessories for access control and working time are the devices that users interact with most frequently. These are often access control chips, cards, or silicone wristbands with built-in chips. But there are also other products that help the system operate. Examples include evacuation buttons and exit buttons. The latest trend for these is contactless (no-touch) buttons.
Accessories for access control and work time are the devices that users have the widest reach with. Often these are access control chips, cards, silicone wristbands with embedded chips. But there are also other products that assist in the operation of the system. These include emergency buttons and exit buttons. A recent trend with them is the use of touchless buttons.
Types of Access Control Accessories
Access control accessories include various types of chips, cards, and wristbands. It’s a good idea to consider and consult with specialists before purchasing or ordering these devices. Chips can be engraved with the company logo, while cards can be printed and serve as badges.
One of our latest innovations is combining smartwatches or modern fitness wristbands with access control chips. The latest trends are replacing traditional keys with chips or wristbands for access control. With such a small device, you can unlock your home, office, entry doors, garage, villa, even your car. According to us, in the future, these physical electronic unlocking devices will be replaced by smartphone apps. This is something our team is working on.
Smartphones – the New Access Control Accessories
Phones are the new accessories for access control and in general for security systems. The smartphone is something we don’t leave home without anymore. We’ve become so accustomed to it assisting us in our daily lives that it’s hard to imagine living without it. Not to mention, while indoors – at home, in the office, at work, in stores – we spend a large part of our time using these mobile devices. It’s an irreversible process, and with technology development, people are increasingly using them. Some define this as dependency, but it doesn’t necessarily have to be identified as a negative process for humans. Rather, we should strive for symbiosis with technology. Processes from which there is mutual benefit, and people derive maximum benefit from technology.
In the era of continuous communication, the smartphone is one of the things that a large part of the population has and uses. More and more services are starting to “enter the phone”. Such as payments, online banking, all our correspondence, diary, task list. Access control and accessories for access control are no exception. A step in this direction is the use of phone cases (protectors) with a card slot. Currently, protectors with a special slot for a card are very popular. This physically combines the two devices. It guarantees that by taking your smartphone, you will not forget your “keys” – in this case, the means of opening. This is a pragmatic solution, but it only works conveniently for cards. You cannot insert a chip, wristband, or something bulkier into it. But for us, protectors that physically unite access control accessories are just a step forward.
Contribution of Mobile Applications
Mobile applications are the real contribution and much greater convenience when it comes to optimizing systems and access control accessories. As well as the software that works with them. Through a software application (APP), the phone becomes an unlocking device. Thanks to VAiOS’s innovative systems, you can now use your phones as universal accessories for access control and keys. Separate functions include automation and stopping alarm systems, electricity, and lighting, which you can explore in other sections of the website.
Using a modern smartphone app removes the dependency of the access control system and its software on a specific device. Through VAiOS’s web-based software, whether you use a tablet, phone, laptop, or even a desktop computer, you have access to your system regardless of your location. Another convenience of mobile applications is notifications, keeping you informed of events at all times.
Currently, we are in a process where traditional keys are being replaced with chips or cards. This trend in access control systems aims to further enhance their software capabilities. Thus, physical locking/unlocking devices like keys are being gradually replaced with virtual ones. The concentration of services, products, and functions into a single device like the phone will not bypass both hardware and access control systems. Smart devices and phones will gradually become the main accessories for access control and unlocking.
