An Automatic Vehicle Identification System requires an individually encoded ID “Tag” to be placed on each vehicle. The tag is read by a reader or transmitting/receiving antenna as the vehicle passes by. The identification number of the vehicle tag is then sent to a controller which makes the decision to open the gate.
This is a hands-free operation, the driver just drives in and parks. This type of operation saves each patron from stopping and having to search for change in their pocket or purse, or from swiping a magnetic or proximity card or maybe punching a keypad. This is a great benefit to the driver, and to the facility management.
Other benefits for this type of system is improved facilities utilization, increased revenue, fewer personnel, reduced cash handling and cash shrinkage, and greater security.
This type of system has been used in Corporate Facilities, Gated Communities, Universities, Medical Campuses, Governmental Facilities and Parking Structures.
The system is easy to install and has very low maintenance. These units can stand high levels of shock and vibration along with -40 to +185 Degree operating temperatures. The system is highly accurate and reliable.
