Reporting from Shanghai, China
May 7, 2019
The ekey UNO finger scanner is an innovative security system made in Austria, which has been based on Espressif’s ESP32-WROVER module.
ESP32-WROVER is Espressif’s powerful microcontroller module combining WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity (classic and low-energy). ESP32-WROVER is the perfect choice for a wide variety of applications, ranging from voice encoding, music streaming and MP3 decoding to low-power sensor networks, including fingerprint scanning.
Europe’s top company for fingerprint-access solutions, ekey, has used ESP32-WROVER for its latest product, ekey UNO. This is an innovative finger scanner that protects your private space, home or company, from any intruders in the most hassle-free and secure way. You do not need to worry again, if you ever forget or lose your keys. ekey UNO locks and unlocks your doors by scanning your fingerprints. The simple installation and intuitive user administration of ekey UNO make this product really stand out when it comes to digital security systems.
ekey UNO is the finger scanner of choice, because it:
- can store up to 99 fingerprints;
- can be used to control from one to three functions (e.g. open a door or gate, deactivate the alarm system, etc.);
- can be easily operated with a central user administration via its control panel (no need for a PC);
- or via the ekey home app on your smartphone or tablet.
With the ekey UNO app, system administrators can view the app’s access log and grant access permission to their family, friends and staff.
ekey UNO’s finger-scanning lock is 1,000 times more secure than other systems based on a four-digit code, because it does not allow the user’s access rights to be transferred. The user’s fingerprints are used as a unique key which cannot be replaced by any sort of digital code, metal key or card. Furthermore, fraudulent fingerprints are instantly detected with the powerful RF sensor technology. This technology can easily distinguish between any fraudster’s fingerprints and the legal user’s fingerprints having undergone minor changes caused, for example, by small injuries or the growth of children’s fingers.
Last, but not least, ekey UNO users can benefit from a five-year guarantee, because all the products of the Austrian manufacturer and developer, ekey, are synonymous to high quality.
