At night a hospital still receives visitors and deliveries. Here is how an intercom keeps the gate controlled.
Key takeaways
- See and speak
- Release remotely
- Night record
- A single controlled door
01The problem
After hours there is one door open and one guard, who cannot see everyone at once. An intercom at the gate lets the guard see and speak to a visitor, then release the gate only for those who should come in.
