Biometric system will speed up access to sporting events

A new biometric system will fast-track access to sporting events on the AT&T Park stadium in San Francisco, home of the famous baseball team the San Francisco Giants, a recent news report in the local media has been able to reveal.

The new biometric secure identity platform prescreens individuals, expediting the waiting process for fans to ensure faster entry into the park. The enrollment process is fast and easy, with fans being required to provide their drivers license and biometrics in the form of a fingerprint.

However, despite speeding up access through this system, AT&T Park security personnel will continue to perform bag checks for those who use the Fast Access lane.

“We strive to offer our fans the best experience in baseball which includes safety as a top priority,” said Jorge Costa, Giants senior vice president of ballpark operations.

“Fast Access boosts our security capabilities and, at the same time, gives fans an easy way to save time and enjoy the ballpark.”

Tensor offers complete peace of mind with Biometric System for Access Control

Biometric access control systems are the most secure and reliable alternative to old “lock and key” door access control methods.

Biometric technology uses human physical attributes as locks and keys, making it particularly suitable for access control systems on the buildings of large organisations. Using biometrics for security and identification requires meeting two challenges: they must be cheap enough and sufficiently simple to be used by ordinary users. Furthermore, for enhanced security, these biometric access control systems should combine two or more types of authentication, such as coupling fingerprints with key codes or passwords to provide greater trust that who is logging in is only who is expected to do so.

Tensor Plc, the UK’s number one manufacturer and installer of time and attendance and access control systems, supplies a range of top-range, reliable and affordable Smart Card electronics combined with a biometric fingerprint reader.
