Modern technologies are changing familiar processes, making them more convenient, safer and more efficient. One of these solutions is smart barriers — automated access control systems for parking lots, closed territories of business centers, residential complexes, logistics centers and other facilities.

The integration of smart barriers with Indoors Navigation opens up new opportunities for facility owners and users. In this article, we'll look at how smart barriers work, what their advantages are, and how Indoors Navigation makes them even more convenient.

What are smart barriers?

A smart barrier is an automated device that is remotely controlled and interacts with various identification systems. They allow you to control the entry and exit of vehicles, ensuring the safety and convenience of users.

Modern smart barriers support the following technologies:

• License Plate recognition (LPR, ANPR) – cameras record the vehicle number and automatically open the barrier for registered vehicles.
• Mobile applications – the user opens the barrier using a smartphone through a special application.
• RFID cards and keyfobs – access using cards and keyfobs linked to a specific user.
• QR codes and NFC are one-time passes that can be controlled remotely.

The integration of these technologies into a single platform allows for maximum automation and convenience.

How does Indoor Navigation improve the operation of smart barriers?

Interiors Navigation is a comprehensive platform for navigation and object management. It integrates with various systems, including smart barriers, providing convenient tools for monitoring and control. The main features of the Indoor Navigation platform for managing barriers:

Unified access system: integration with mobile applications, video surveillance systems, parking solutions and CRM.

Automatic management: setting up access rules for different categories of users.

Online monitoring: the statuses of the barriers, entry and exit statistics are displayed in real time.

Flexible analytics: reports on parking occupancy, time spent by cars, and traffic dynamics.

Intelligent navigation: Indoors Navigation helps drivers to find free parking spaces and optimal routes within the territory faster.

Advantages of using smart barriers

1. Maximum automation of processes

Thanks to the Indoors Navigation software modules, the control of the barriers becomes fully automatic. Facility owners can set up access rules in advance, and users get a convenient entry tool without having to search for access cards or call security.

2. Increased security level

All entries and exits are recorded in the system, and integration with video surveillance allows you to quickly monitor the situation. This is especially true for business centers, warehouse areas, and gated residential complexes.

3. Lower personnel costs

Guards no longer need to manually check their passes – the system automatically controls access. This reduces the burden on staff and increases work efficiency.

4. User-friendliness

Car owners get several convenient ways to control the barriers, whether it's a mobile app, automatic number recognition, or a QR pass. This saves a lot of time.

5. Flexible settings for different objects

• Residential complexes – residents can open the barrier with a smartphone, and guests receive one-time QR codes.
• Business centers - automatic access for employees and a flexible pass system for visitors.
• Logistics centers – cargo transport control, entry and exit accounting, integration with ERP systems.
• Shopping malls are a convenient parking system with dynamic fares and navigation to free spaces.

Usage Scenarios

1. Automatic entry by number.

The car owner adds the car number to the system. The camera recognizes the number, the Indoors Navigation system checks access and automatically opens the barrier.

2. Temporary guest passes.

The guest receives a QR code on his smartphone, scans it at the entrance, and the barrier opens. This method is convenient for business centers and residential complexes.

3. Dynamic parking management.

The Indoors Navigation Platform system analyzes parking congestion and regulates access to different zones, automatically distributing traffic flows.

Advantages of using smart barriers

Smart barriers combined with the Indoors Navigation building management system are a convenient and secure solution for automating access control. They allow:

✅ Reduce the waiting time at the entrance and exit. ✅ Simplify the management of passes through mobile applications. ✅ Improve security by integrating with video surveillance. Optimize parking spaces through analytics and navigation.

Thanks to these technologies, facilities receive an innovative solution that makes life more convenient for users and more efficient for business owners.
