Smooth vehicle access at retirement villages in South Africa

Convenient and secure access control

Impro Technologies, Nedap’s South African business partner, installed the uPASS system at the two newly built retirement villages. uPASS Reach readers are installed at all entrances and exits of the villages. Every vehicle is equipped with a UHF Windshield Tag that contains a unique identification number.

The uPASS Reach allows a consistent reading of up to 5 meters. Without the need to open windows to present a badge. AVI (Automatic Vehicle Identification) ensures a smooth throughput of authorized vehicles and increases the safety of residents, staff and contractors.
The uPASS system is integrated with Impro’s access control system. This solution increases the security which is of value for residents who would like to live in a gated living environment which offers them the facilities, security and care they require in later years of retirement.
