Biometric Switches
Pilot devices provide control and condition monitoring of different types of processes, equipment and machinery in industrial and commercial applications. They are used for communication from a machine to an operator or from an operator to a machine. Pilot devices can be an audio or visual indicator, or an actuator that is used to control the flow of energy to a process. Visual indicators are: pilot lights, signal towers, strobes and beacons. Audio indictors are: buzzers and sounder horns. Actuators are: push buttons, selector switches, toggle switches and potentiometers.
Access control is a critical part of safety and security management in industrial settings. Access control refers to the management of an access point, such as a door, machine or computer, to only allow entry to an authorized user. There are three types of access control systems. The first type is object-based, where the user must possess a specific object to be granted entry, such as an id card, fob or key. The second type is information-based, where the user mush know a specific code to be granted entry, such as a password or pin number. The third type is biometric-based, where the user utilizes a part of their body to identify themselves to be granted access, such as face recognition, iris scan or fingerprint.
