How to Mount a Person Reader

Overview

Mounting Requirements

• Properly mounted readers should not alter the behavior of users approaching an unlocked door

• Mount reader

  • 52" to 60" above ground (to middle of camera)

  • Next to handle-side of the door

  • On same plane as the door

  • Facing approaching users at an arm's length

  • With sufficient ambient lighting on the face
    
    

Things to Avoid

• Reader facing the door

• Obstructed field of view.

• Hard or inconvenient for users to position themselves to face the PR

• Avoid spotlights or strong back-lighting in the Filed of View (FoV)

• Good placement

• Good lighting

• Reader recognizes you as you approach the door

Avoid Interference between PRs

Infrared Projector Interference

Interference can occur if the SR300 is capturing infrared patterns projected from multiple infrared projectors simultaneously.  Low interference assumes a user is in front of each SR300 and comfortably spaced apart.

Range Concerns

Review of Turnstile Setup Operations

• A: Door Setup (@ 59")

  • Good depth range from 47" to 71"

  • Requires high mounting height

• B: Turnstile Setup (@ 41", 0.9m range)

  • Good depth range from 47" to ~65"

  • Does not work well for taller that ~60"

  • Requires tall people to lean over the PR (need to tile head 60+ degree down)

  • Leaning over th PR can cause hair to cover the face

  • Recommendation: Not feasible as a product

• C: Turnstile Setup (@41", 1.2m range)

  • Good depth range from 47" to ~71"

  • High risk of accidental recognition (ID A, grand access to B)

  • Requires tall people to lean over the PR (need to tilt head 50+ degrees down)

  • Leaning over the PR can cause hair to cover the face.
