Chinese universities turn to biometric access control systems to secure residence facilities

Leave a Comment


Biometric access control systems are becoming increasingly popular as the solutions of choice to secure residence facilities in Chinese universities, a recent news report in the local media has been able to suggest.

Shanghai Normal’s newly renovated 6th Dormitory building has seen a huge facelift on the outside, but it’s the internal upgrades that have been the most impressive. Student residents now enter the dorm via facial recognition technology by passing through scanners and electronic gates.

Anyone whose facial biometric or personal information has not been enrolled in the dorm’s database cannot enter the building.

Once inside the hall, students can then use a fingerprint to enter their dorm room. The residence has been completely outfitted with new technology, and beyond the biometric upgrades now includes QR code-scanning for laundry machines, and a touchscreen in the lobby where students can request repairs.
