Nedap Identification Systems is launching Mace Smart: a slim multi-technology reader for mobile access control. This elegant reader is the newest addition to the Mace platform, which enables the use of smartphones in any access control system. The Mace Smart reader is able to read virtual credentials on smartphones, but also reads conventional smartcards. The Mace Smart reader was revealed at the Intersec exhibition in Dubai.
With the introduction of the Mace platform last year, Nedap responded to the global shift of smartphone credentials replacing physical cards. Mace readers support Bluetooth, NFC and QR codes to identify people using virtual credentials, which are stored in a Mace app. Mace can be used in combination with any access control system or any other system that requires the swift identification of people, such as parking management systems or registration systems.
The Mace Smart mobile access control reader supports Bluetooth, NFC and smartcards and is small enough to be mullion mounted. It has a slim design, which makes this mobile access control reader an ideal solution for doors that require a combination of security and convenience.
