Children's IT Park has been established for young Tatarstan residents, where children aged 5-18 will be able to try hand in one of digital professions.
The entrance areas of the IT park are equipped with the cutting-edge access system. Contour Bio smart-turnstiles, automatic Concept gates, smart QR-code readers at the entrance to individual areas were developed and manufactured by Infomatika. All ACS equipment have BLE/NFC readers to interface with the mobile application.
To use the access control system, no physical passes are required, only a mobile application. All interactions between the visitor and the venue can take place online, including the issuance of permanent and one-time passes, the booking of meeting rooms, and the payment for coworking. Once the pass is issued, the turnstiles will open even if the smartphone is turned off — this is how NFC technology works.
The IT park is currently in the technical mode.
