New user authentication options are driving innovation in EV charging, machine authentication, physical access and beyond. ELATEC will showcase the latest authentication technologies at embedded world, including emerging smartphone credentialing solutions and universal readers for all-in-one access solutions. Find them at Stand 3-220 in Hall 3 at the Nuremberg exhibition center from March 14-16.

ELATEC is partnering with end customers and OEMs to enable new business models through innovative access solutions such as “all in one” access systems, where the same ID card or smartphone app can unlock access to everything workers or tenants need in the “Smart Office” or “Smart Building.” It’s all part of Digital Transformation in access control: ease and convenience for users, and security and simplicity for organizations. A unified access system enables optimization across all access applications.

Their universal readers work with nearly any RFID transponder technology along with smartphone credentialing systems using Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE) or Near-Field Communication (NFC). That means OEMs seeking to expand into a global market can find a single reader that works for everyone, simplifying inventory management and customer support. ELATEC’s universal readers are widely used for embedded systems such as multifunction printers, smart locker systems, elevator access panels, kiosks, and much more.
 
In the EV charging world, ELATEC is creating solutions that allow both public and private charging stations to track charging behaviors for authorized users while preventing misuse by unauthorized persons. RFID cards or smartphone credentialing systems are simple and convenient for users and secure and reliable for station managers.

Machine authentication is another rapidly emerging area. Embedded RFID readers in manufacturing robots and machines are more secure than password or PIN systems, ensuring that only trained and authorized users can operate machinery or change operating parameters.

At embedded world, ELATEC will be showcasing reader technologies tailored for use in embedded systems, such as:
  • The TWN4 Multi-Tech HF Mini, perfectly suited for e-charging stations and other systems where a small form factor is a necessity. Supports RFID technologies in the high frequency (HF) range and (optionally) NFC.
  • The TWN4 Multi-Tech Nano M, engineered for optimal integration into machines and devices. Supports all HF and LF RFID technologies, including NFC.
  • The TWN4 Palon Compact Panel, designed specifically for integration into third-party products and devices. Supports HF and LF RFID, NFC and BLE.
  • The TWN 4 Slim, ideal for installation in computers and devices, especially MFP printers with optional clip-on snap-in covers. Supports HF and LF RFID, NFC and BLE.

ELATEC will be joined at embedded world by their partner sesamsec, the global access management specialist. sesamsec will present their new Secustos line, which marries great design with high performance, among other technologies.
