Efficiency and Quality in Tourism Increases with Security Technologies

While guest traffic increases in the hospitality industry with the coming of spring, the basic need remains the same throughout the year, both in touristic settlements and in city hotels: To provide a more comfortable and safe accommodation experience with less human intervention. While ensuring the satisfaction of the guests, full compliance with the legal regulations regarding the tourism sector and all security measures within the campus must be perfect.

Smart technologies come to the fore in order to provide security in the most efficient way in accommodation facilities that host tens of thousands of guests who want to spend their time safely in a comfortable and comfortable environment. Even though guests don't want their behavior to be under control, they want to feel safe.

Designing the most effective security system that should be designed according to the location of the hotel, the guest profile, the average length of stay and the guest volume, Sensormatic realizes the installation and integration of cost-effective, remotely controlled, sustainable technologies that will minimize all kinds of negativities and risks. In the tourism sector, security is shaped around comfort and privacy. In projects, the needs are determined by first performing a risk analysis of the facility or building. Solutions are offered in which perimeter security, access control, personnel attendance control (PDKS), video surveillance, fire detection and announcement systems work in an integrated manner.

“We offer the most suitable solutions for facility needs”

Sensormatic Marketing Director Pelin Yelkencioğlu stated, “The pandemic we experienced showed everyone that technology is one of the most important strengths we possess and offers the ability to develop solutions to changing situations. Therefore, this power is now at the service of the tourism and hospitality sector. It is important for hotel and facility managers to review their technological infrastructure and keep this process under control with the latest solutions to meet the hygiene and safety expectations of their guests. We know that every institution has different needs when it comes to security. That's why we always strive to understand our customers' needs in the best way possible by putting ourselves in their shoes. After comprehensively evaluating these needs, we offer them the most suitable solution according to the results.”

Intelligent systems in environmental safety

One of the most important issues in a tourism facility is to ensure environmental safety. Remote Video Monitoring Solutions is one of the effective security solutions that can be used in perimeter security. In a facility, security cameras record events uninterruptedly, with operators monitoring only 4% of these recordings. At this point, Remote Video Monitoring Solutions stands out as an intelligent system that captures all the details that operators might miss. By integrating these systems with other security systems, a more proactive perimeter security solution is designed. By providing integration with the cameras in the relevant area, the images of the area where the violation occurred are automatically reflected on the control center monitors, allowing the relevant officer or operator to see the images instantly.

Automatic and no-wait switching

Thanks to the license plate recognition system, the plates of the customers coming to the facility are defined in advance to the system, and they can pass automatically and without waiting. Access control can be provided with the highest security with barrier and bollard solutions. The system in question can be used not only to recognize guests, but also as a remote announcement service in undesirable situations and when warnings are required. For example; In case of parking in a wrong area, the video analysis system generates an alarm and the relevant personnel can make an announcement for warning purposes.

Privacy and confidentiality are important

Ensuring the privacy as well as the security of the people staying at the hotel for business or leisure purposes is among the priority duties of the hotel management. The rooms where the recorded images are stored in the campus should be well protected and the authorization of the people who will access these images should be done correctly. Privacy, an indispensable element for hotel guests to feel safe, is ensured by Sensormatic's advanced authorization and control systems.

Density is under control

The 'Density Measurement Solution', which is used to track the number of people in a certain area, is installed at the entrance of points such as restaurants, activity centers, gyms, Turkish baths and saunas in accommodation facilities, and displays instant density information on the screen. With this solution, information about the number of people inside can be given at the door entrance. In this way, guests can see the density live and plan their activities.

Contactless technologies

In this period, where contactless pass is gaining importance, contact can be minimized thanks to iris recognition devices, contactless fingerprint reading devices, face recognition devices, mobile pass through mobile phones.

Fastest response to fire

Again, the fire detection system comes first among the measures to be taken for the security of a tourism facility. With the smart addressable fire detection systems to be used, it is possible to instantly understand from which room and which detector a possible fire came, not only in which region, but also on a floor-based map. With addressable sirens and flashers to be placed in hotel rooms, in the event of a fire, the alarm sounds primarily in the rooms that need to be evacuated, thus minimizing possible panic and discomfort. Many security scenarios are triggered automatically upon an alarm signal to be received. For example; A door that should stay closed at a normal time opens automatically in the event of a fire, helping evacuation.

The voice alarm system is also an integral part of the fire detection solution… The system, which is normally used for purposes that will increase customer satisfaction, automatically starts broadcasting evacuation messages in case of emergency.
