NFC Access Control System is basically an unlocking system where a NFC enabled tag or smartphone can be used to unlock the door or any other locks where NFC is compatible. It is simple process where we just need to tap on the NFC enabled lock for unlocking the door. The door unlocking system uses an electronic mechanism, so the device requires 24 hours power supply to work where in case of power supply failure, a battery backup can be used. The lock needs to be synchronized with the smartphone or tag which is to be used for unlocking, so that no other device can be used to open the lock. This application makes the door unlocking an easy task where the person just needs to have his smartphone and not carry a bunch of keys as this system can be used everywhere there is a lock like a drawer, safe, etc.

Of course, locks and keys have their drawbacks. Locks can be picked. Keys can be lost. They don’t allow access rights to be easily transferred. They don’t provide any additional data, such as who gained access and when. And perhaps most significantly, physical locks and keys have limited applications. But thanks to NFC technology, vastly improved access control systems addressing those issues and more are now available.

For several years, there have been NFC-enabled locks that let you gain access to your home or business with a tap of your phone. There are also NFC solutions that can simplify flexible access control for cabinets and drawers. But that’s only the beginning. Because NFC can bring both security and intelligence to physical objects, it can do much more than traditional access control.

For example, NFC lets you bypass the long waiting line at the hotel check-in desk and go straight to your room after a long day’s travel. Inexpensive NFC tags attached to luxury goods and collectibles can confirm their authenticity to protect owners’ investments. And businesses with mobile workforces can use NFC to provide site access and monitor their workers’ whereabouts and time spent at each location — all without the risks of physical locks and keys.

And because NFC provides a way to collect data related to those comings and goings, it can be a vital source of information about supply chains, traffic patterns, security risks, and more. It’s taken almost three millennia, but NFC is finally delivering a measurable improvement on the old lock and key.
