Smart Check-in System
Our phyiscal check-in kiosks offer an effortless check-in system, supporting user authentication using near-field communication (NFC) cards or manual ID entry.
Smart Check-in & Analytics Network
Revolutionizing the check-in process with NFC technology, data-driven analytics, and comprehensive kiosk management.
Project Description
Analytics Dashboard
The SCAN system can be used to collect user engagement data based on check-in statistics, generating and displaying analytics data on a webpage dashboard.
Actionable Insights
The system provides insights into usage patterns such as overall occupancy, peak hours throughout the week, and the average duration of a user's stay. These insights can then be used by facilities to inform resource allocation, staffing, and facility planning.
Kiosk Management
The kiosk management page allows admins to view active kiosks, monitor power/charging status, and deploy new firmware updates.
