The importance of Access Control
Access control is essential for managing traffic, enhancing safety, and improving liveability and air quality. By regulating vehicle entry and exit based on predefined rules, it helps to improve road safety, liveability and air quality. Its smart setup allows emergency vehicles, public transport, and other authorized users to move freely, while restricting unauthorized access. Easily adaptable to changing needs, our access control solutions integrate seamlessly with smart mobility systems, contributing to safer, more efficient, and more sustainable cities and private sites.
Our Solutions for Effective Access Control
Restricted Traffic Zone
Using whitelists, this solution controls access to restricted traffic zones such as car-free areas, one-way streets, school zones and industrial sites. When a license plate is recognized, the system checks it against active whitelists and either flags a violation or grants access by automatically triggering physical access systems such as bollards or barrier gates.
This solution offers easy whitelist management based on license plate, vehicle type and time schedules, and integrates seamlessly with existing access systems via the M³ platform.
Low Emission Zone (LEZ)
This solution controls access to Low Emission Zones, by detecting vehicles that breach emission standards or lack valid permits. It compares the emission level of each recognized vehicle, identified via its license plate through a connection to the vehicle registration database, with predefined access rules.
Violations are flagged for authorities, ensuring enforcement against unauthorized entries and helping to improve air quality and public health in urban areas.
Rat Running
By calculating travel time, this solution detects drivers taking illegal shortcuts through restricted areas, such as residential neighborhoods and school zones, endangering children, pedestrians and cyclists and reducing overall liveability.
Because our smart cameras can recognize not only license plates but also other vehicle characteristics, such as vehicle class, make, and model, our solution can specifically monitor trucks taking illegal shortcuts.
Bus lanes
This solution controls access to bus lanes, by detecting vehicles that our smart cameras do not classify as buses (or emergency services).
Violations are flagged for authorities, to ensure enforcement against unauthorized use, keeping bus lanes clear for buses and emergency services, thereby ensuring the intended travel time savings to improve bus usage.
Parking
From controlling access and monitoring individual parking durations, to calculating occupancy and guiding drivers toward preferred parking locations in your city, Macq offers a comprehensive range of solutions for both private and public parking, including blue zones and car parks.
All powered by our high-performing smart cameras, because every recognition counts, especially in free-flow parking environments. Download onepager
