One of the most basic problems of today's world is security-related problems. The protection of valuable information, such as ensuring the safety of people, against hackers and valuable items against intruders is of equal importance. This importance reveals the need for security in people and results in people basically wanting to be in environments or places where they can feel safe. Due to this situation, increasing the security of buildings and facilities has become one of the main goals of private companies or public institutions. One of the most preferred methods for the protection of these buildings and facilities is the turnstile system.
Turnstile Systems
Turnstile systems generally provide a superior security control by detecting unauthorized persons and deterring their entry into the building or facility. Turnstiles with cards or fingerprint readers placed at the entrance doors of a facility or building control the entrances and exits to these places together with cameras and security authorized persons and maximize the security and facility security. All these security systems display live data used by management to monitor visitors, determine alarm locations, and detect potential security threats, and also allow access to and storage of useful information such as the identity, time and location of each individual entering and exiting the building.
When a user presents a credential, the access control system communicates with the turnstile if the credential is valid and whether relay is allowed. When a transition occurs, the turnstile immediately returns to the access control system where the transition took place. When invalid credentials are presented to the turnstiles, the access control system notifies the user that the credentials have not been accepted. When an alarm is activated through the turnstile system, the turnstile and access control system can work together to alert security, turn on nearby cameras, and lock the appropriate turnstile and secondary gates. The continuity and increase of all these measures constitutes one of the main objectives of the company or public institutions. As a method of increasing security and deterrence, there are card or finger reader systems in turnstiles today. Both are efficient and differ from each other in terms of their working methods.
Fingerprint Reader System
Fingerprint recognition is a method that has been used more recently than the card method. The identification process of recognizing the ridges and gaps on the fingertips creates a structure specific to each person. Physiologically, the fingerprint is a structure formed by the dermal papilla, which appears as a pattern of the papillary ridges lying under them. The papillary appearance is a pattern peculiar to each individual, developed before birth, does not change with age and rebuilds itself after damage. Therefore, the fingerprint method is a very reliable method.
At the heart of the biometric fingerprint recognition method is the technology used to obtain the fingerprint graphic image, create the vector model, and then search the system's template database for a matching template. The fingerprint graphic image is converted to a special mathematical template for comparison. The original image of the papillary structure is discarded immediately after the first transformation. This makes the reverse generation of biometric images used in this process impossible.
Fingerprint identification is generally easy and easy to use. Identification is fast and reliable in this method. The fingerprint recognition method also provides an advanced and reliable technology. This method also offers the user the most affordable security solution among the biometric systems available.
Card Reader System
Card reader systems offer a more primitive technology than fingerprint reader systems. In such systems, the cards are recorded in the database with their numbers so that the user can read the card to the device and the device allows the card holder to pass if the card number is registered in the database. Like the fingerprint method, this method, although fast, may not always be reliable. Possibility of cards being stolen or lost, or cardholders handing over their cards to unsafe people, can still be seen as the cons of card reader systems. Since card reader systems are also not in biometric systems, it is possible to find them at more affordable prices than fingerprint systems. In these two types of security systems, the entry and exit times of the people into the building or facility can be recorded.
