A biometric access control system that uses facial recognition to authenticate passengers and authorise floor access.
Full Definition
Elevator facial recognition access integrates a biometric camera module — typically mounted in the car operating panel or at a landing kiosk — with the elevator controller and access control software. The system captures and compares the passenger's facial geometry against a pre-enrolled database, then grants or denies access to restricted floors without requiring a card or PIN. Deep learning algorithms (typically CNN-based) deliver recognition accuracy exceeding 99.9% with sub-second response. Privacy regulations (GDPR in Europe, KVKK in Turkey) require informed consent for biometric data collection, secure encrypted storage, and data retention limits. The system must include a fallback access method for enrolment failures. Integration with building security platforms is via OSDP, Wiegand, or IP API.
