Lumeo, a designer of computer vision solutions, announces an anti-tailgating and mantrap AI analytic for turnstiles that prevents tailgating at entrance points. The solution incorporates AI algorithms to detect the number of individuals entering a turnstile lane or mantrap and grants access only if no more than one individual is detected. ZKTeco, provider of multi-factor authentication (MFA) touchless biometric technology, developed this analytic using Lumeo’s video analytics platform.
Tailgating is a common security breach which occurs when an unauthorized person gains access through a turnstile or door by walking closely behind an authorized person and sneaking in behind them. In most cases, even if the “breach” is harmless, the authorized person is freely cooperating with the unauthorized person. This violates security protocols and puts the business at substantial risk should any resulting improprieties occur.
