Smart Meeting Room Terminal

Panel PC for meeting room application, access control and user authentication

Background

In an age where everything is being tracked and monitored, meeting room availability and privacy remain an important factor in areas where important meetings take place, i.e. office, educational institution, or technology research facility. As a result, having the right device to grant access control, and also indicate room availability can save time for employees while maintaining strict meeting confidentiality at all times.

Xinc Technologies and Winmate Inc have developed a comprehensive, multi-touch screen panel PC that can be used to book meeting rooms, grant access control, and display vital meeting room information. With a touchscreen panel outside each meeting room, attendees can view room availability upon entry, view information on a pending booking, or making bookings for a later time on the touchscreen device itself. Plus, these panel PCs help to ensure that only authorized personnel can access the room during the period booked with its RFID access control. Not to mention the RGB LED lightbar indicators to provide clear information on the availability of the meeting rooms. Currently, the panel PCs are serving companies, universities, and colleges across Australia
