FST21 Released Next Generation Version of SafeRise Solution

Feb 19, 2013

FST21 was proud to announce the release of SafeRise version 1.6.5, the next generation of its award-winning, access software solution. Utilizing FST21's In Motion Identification capabilities, SafeRise can manage and control building entry points, common areas, elevators and parking areas.

SafeRise recognizes people simply by the way they look, walk and talk. SafeRise, which earned the coveted SIA New Product Showcase award in 2011, represents a fusion of cutting-edge, value-adding technologies, including 2nd generation biometrics, video, behavior analysis, facial, voice and license plate recognition.

Because it can quickly identify anyone who is walking to the door, SafeRise can make an informed decision as to allow entry, verify guests or transfer them to a monitoring station representative for assistance. There's no need for a key, card or access code.

The new 1.6.5 version of the software solution boasts many new and innovative benefits. The new features include more user-friendly, multi-lingual, graphical user interface (GUI) screens as well as the addition of Portuguese and Cantonese, added as new languages supported in the Voice User Interface (VUI) options.

Users now also have the ability to self-enroll by following simple, system directions. Installation has been further simplified, while cameras and intercoms can be automatically discovered in the network and controlled when SafeRise boots up for the first time. The new 1.6.5 version also enables interactive response. A user, for instance, can call a number and the system will answer, allowing them to speak with the visitor and grant access to the parking areas through the License Plate Recognition (LPR) capability as well as open the door to the building. If there are video phones in the apartments or offices, users can actually see and speak to the visitor directly.

SafeRise technology delivers a secure, convenient and reliable way to let authorized individuals in - and keep unauthorized people out. This next-generation version of SafeRise raises the bar even higher when it comes to In Motion Identification technology. For more information, please visit http://www.fst21.com
