Application Cases of Turnstiles on American Campuses

A well-known comprehensive school located in a certain city in the United States covers primary, junior high and senior high school sections, with thousands of teachers and students. With the continuous expansion of the campus scale and the growing demand for campus safety management, the traditional management mode of campus entrances and exits has gradually exposed many problems. The efficiency of manual identity verification is low. During the peak hours of school arrival and departure, there are often congestion at the school gate, and problems such as errors in identity recognition and chaotic visitor management are prone to occur, which poses major potential safety hazards. In order to build a safer, more efficient and orderly campus environment, the school decided to comprehensively upgrade the campus entrance and exit management system and introduce advanced turnstile equipment.

After extensive research and comparison, the school finally chose the turnstiles with multiple identification functions provided by our company. Multiple sets of turnstile equipment were installed at key locations in the campus, including the school gate, teaching building entrances, and dormitory area entrances. These access gates are equipped with advanced face recognition cameras and RFID identification modules, which can meet the access needs of different groups of people in different scenarios.

Each teacher and student in the school is provided with a campus card with an RFID chip, and their facial information is entered into the system. When teachers and students pass through, they can choose to swipe their campus cards or use face recognition. The system can complete identity verification in an instant and quickly open the gate to allow passage. For visitors, the school has set up a special visitor registration office. When visitors arrive at the school, they need to register their identities at the registration office. The staff will issue them a temporary RFID visitor card and enter the visitors' relevant information, such as name, ID card number, purpose of visit, estimated stay time, and the person being visited, into the visitor management system. When visitors enter the campus, they can pass through the turnstile by swiping the visitor card, and the system will automatically record the visitors' entry time and location.

The access gates are equipped with high-precision infrared sensors and intelligent anti-tailgating algorithms. When someone passes through the gate, the infrared sensors will real-time monitor the number of people and changes in their positions in the channel. If an unauthorized person is detected trying to tailgate a person who has passed through, the gate will immediately activate the alarm mechanism, issue an audible and visual alarm, and quickly close the gate bar to prevent the tailgating behavior. At the same time, the system will record this abnormal situation for subsequent inquiry and handling.

The turnstile system is deeply integrated with the school's campus management platform to achieve real-time data sharing and interaction. All access records, including the daily attendance of teachers and students and the entry and exit records of visitors, will be automatically synchronized to the campus management platform. School administrators can query and statistics these data at any time through the platform, understand the flow of people in the campus, and provide strong data support for campus management decisions. For example, by analyzing attendance data, the school can promptly detect abnormal attendance of students and take corresponding measures for intervention; by checking visitor records, the school can trace and manage the visits of visitors to ensure campus safety.

Since the turnstiles were put into use, the access efficiency at the school's entrances and exits has been significantly improved. During peak hours of school arrival and departure, teachers, students, and visitors can pass through the access gates quickly and orderly, and the congestion at the school gate has been greatly alleviated. According to statistics, the access speed has increased several times compared with the traditional manual management mode, which has greatly saved the time of teachers, students, and visitors.

Multiple identification methods and powerful anti-tailgating functions have effectively prevented unauthorized personnel from entering the campus. Through accurate identity recognition and recording, the school can monitor and manage the personnel in the campus in real-time. In case of a security incident, the information of relevant personnel can be quickly traced, providing strong clues for handling the incident. The safety factor of the campus has been greatly improved, creating a safer and more stable learning and working environment for teachers and students.

The perfect visitor record management function has made the school's management of visitors more standardized and orderly. Visitors' information is detailedly registered before entering the campus, and their whereabouts can be accurately recorded by the system during the entire visit. This not only facilitates the school's management of visitors but also allows the visited persons to know the arrival of visitors in time, improving the management efficiency and service quality of the campus.

The successful application of turnstiles has been widely recognized and praised by teachers, students, parents, and all sectors of society. The school management stated that by introducing the advanced turnstile system, the campus management level has been qualitatively improved, providing a strong guarantee for the sustainable development of the school. Teachers and students also reported that the new access gate system is convenient to use, making them feel a safer and more orderly campus environment. Parents are more assured about the safety of the campus and have praised the school's initiative.
