Facial Recognition Access Control is Transforming Gyms and Swimming Pools

2023.02.14 Company News

Introduction

A Vietnam-based fitness chain with over 30 gyms and swimming pools, faced increasing pressure to modernize its access control system. Relying only on card-based access could not solve the existing challenges. Meanwhile, these issues can also reduce customer satisfaction.

Challenges of Modren Access Control Methods:

·Shared cards led to unauthorized access across locations. 

·Reception staff were very busy during peak hours. 

·Cards were frequently lost or forgotten, causing entry delays. 

·Manual check-in creates bottlenecks and increases labor costs. 

·Access occurs with physical contact and hygiene is a concern.
