Scan&Go BASIC

Situation

All retail businesses with customer parking in a densely populated area.

Problems - Needs

• How to prevent someone from driving on or off the parking lot without visiting the business?
• How to limit access to your customers, visitors, suppliers, and staff without complex, expensive, or intrusive access control?
• How to ensure that customers/visitors leave the parking within a maximum allowed time?

Solution

1. Entrance: Entering after presence detection.
2. Cash Register - Counter: Offline QR printer. Tickets, valid for one time, 30 minutes.
3. Exit: Offline scanner column. Scan the QR ticket in time.

Scenario

The entrance barrier opens after presence detection. Before leaving the premises, customers receive an exit ticket at the counter, which the QR code contains a validity period (for example, 30 minutes, one-time use), and they scan this QR code in a timely manner at the scanner column. Once the validity period of the QR code has expired, people can no longer exit the parking lot without requesting a new ticket.

Comments

• All of the above products operate offline/standalone.
• Offline reports are available via the counter printer.
• The exit scanner retrieves validity from the QR code, without any form of data communication. 230 V is sufficient for all components of this installation.

Situation

Autoparking of a commercial business that also welcomes customers by bike or on foot.

Problems - Needs

• How to restrict access for customers, visitors, suppliers, and staff without complex, expensive, or invasive access control?
• How to prevent pedestrians and cyclists from receiving exit tickets and passing them on to parking abusers?
• How to ensure that customers/visitors leave the parking lot within a maximum allowed time?
• How to prevent someone from driving onto or off the parking lot without visiting the business?

Solution

1. Entrance: Offline printer column. Take a ticket. Drive in.
2. Cash register - Counter: Offline validator. Scan a valid entry ticket. Receive an exit ticket.
3. Exit: Offline scanner column. Scan the validated QR ticket on time.

Scenario

Visitors take a QR ticket at the entrance, which contains the date and time of arrival. Before leaving the premises, customers have their entry ticket scanned by the validator. Only when scanning a valid entry ticket does the validator print an exit ticket with limited validity for the exit scanner (for example, 30 minutes, one-time use). Once the validity period has expired, people can no longer leave the parking lot without requesting a new ticket.

Comments

• All of the above products operate offline/standalone.
• The validator and the exit scanner retrieve the validity from the QR, without any form of data communication. 230 V is sufficient.
• This solution implies that an exit ticket can only be obtained in exchange for an entry ticket. Cyclists/pedestrians do not receive an entry ticket and therefore cannot pass one on.
• Offline reports are available via the validator. However, connect the validator to the internet and generate online reports regarding all events while the entry and exit controllers still operate offline.

Situation

Retail establishment with a car park that is also used by non-customers or covert abusers.

Problems - Needs

• How to restrict access for customers, visitors, suppliers, and staff without complex, expensive, or intrusive access control?
• How can we avoid hidden abusers who park for a long time in exchange for a (too) small purchase, without placing a paid parking system?
• How to ensure that pedestrians and cyclists do not receive exit tickets that they can pass on to parking abusers?
• How to ensure that customers and visitors leave the parking lot within a maximum allowed time?
• How to prevent someone from driving onto or off the parking lot without visiting the store?

Solution

1. Entrance: Offline printer column. Take a ticket. Drive in.
2. Cash register - Counter: Offline APD validator. Scan a valid entry ticket. Receive an exit ticket.
3. Exit: Offline scanner terminal. Scan the QR receipt in time.

Workflow

People take a QR ticket at the entrance, which contains the date and time of arrival within the QR code. Before leaving the premises, customers have their entry ticket scanned by the APD. In the case of a valid entry ticket, the APD automatically prints an exit ticket. In the case of an expired entry ticket, the APD displays an amount due and prints a payment receipt that serves as the exit ticket (for example, 30 minutes, one-time use). Once the validity period of the QR payment receipt has expired, people can no longer leave the parking lot without returning to the cashier.

Comments

• All of the above products operate offline/standalone.
• The APD and the exit scanner retrieve the validity from the QR, without any form of data communication. 230 V is sufficient.
• Offline reports are available via the APD. However, connect the APD to the internet and generate online reports regarding all events while the entry and exit controllers still operate offline.
• If you also want to access the entry and exit columns via LAN/internet and want reports on it, choose Scan&Go PRO columns. Contact us for more info.

Application

Autoparking where only invited visitors and staff are allowed access.

Problems - Needs

• How to provide controlled but automatic access only to scheduled visitors/customers without complex, expensive, or intrusive access control?
• How to ensure that customers/visitors leave the parking within a maximum allowed time?
• How to prevent unwanted users from driving onto or off the parking lot?

Solution

1. Invitation: Pro Users. Create and email eQR invitations.
2. Entrance: Offline printer/scanner kiosk. Scan QR on smartphone or A4 sheet.
3. Counter: Offline validator. Scan a valid QR invitation. Receive an exit ticket.
4. Exit: Offline scanner column. Scan the exit ticket.

Scenario

Customers receive a QR invitation via email, which contains an access validity corresponding to the scheduled appointment. Upon arrival, the customer scans their electronic QR (smartphone) or printed QR at the entry pillar within this validity period. Before leaving the premises, customers have their entry ticket scanned by the validator. Only upon scanning a valid entry QR does the validator print an exit ticket with limited validity for the exit scanner (for example, 30 minutes, one-time use). Once the validity period has expired, people can no longer leave the parking lot without requesting a new ticket.

Comment

Offline reports are available via the validator. However, connect the validator to the internet and generate online reports regarding all events, while the entry and exit controllers still operate offline.

Application

Apartments, offices, government buildings, etc., with parking in a densely populated area.

Problems - Needs

• How to differentiate between desired and undesired visitors without complex, expensive, or intrusive access control?
• How to provide controlled yet easy access for residents at the same time?
• How to ensure that visitors leave the parking lot within a maximum allowed time after their visit?

Solution

1. Entrance: Offline Printer Column. Visitors take a ticket - Residents enter using RFID.
2. Common Private Hallway: Offline Desktop printer. Visitors take a ticket before leaving the hallway.
3. Exit: Offline Scanner Column. Visitors scan their "private hallway ticket" - Residents drive out using ANPR.

Scenario

Residents enter via RFID. Visitors take an entry ticket, park their car, and gain access to their host’s shared private entrance via the intercom. Upon leaving, the visitor prints an exit ticket in that same corridor using the counter printer and proceeds to his/her car, scans this ticket at the exit column, and thus exits the parking. When the host is not present, the visitor exits the parking by scanning his/her entry ticket at the exit column, within the validity period.

Comments

• The exit ticket for visitors can also be distributed at our pedestrian printer kiosk. Contact us for more info.
• For the residents, the identification technology RFID can be replaced by ANPR.
• Install a payment terminal in case of unused parking capacity and charge non-residents and non-visitors based on their parking duration. Contact us for more info.
