Implementación del sistema de seguridad y control de asistencia biométrico para el laboratorio de automatización de procesos industriales en la Escuela de Ingeniería Industrial-ESPOCH

Abstract

The implementation of a security system and biometric access control for the Automation of Processes Laboratory in the School of Industrial Engineering – ESPOCH was carried out with the objective of protecting property and safeguard the integrity of persons within the laboratory. An analysis was carried out to determine the appropriate electronic, electrical, electro-magnetic elements and mechanical devices to install in the system and these were subsequently acquired. The set consists of a biometric access device which permits the entry of authorized users (an electro-mechanical lock and an electro-magnetic lock), two IP cameras equipped with infrared imaging systems, an NVR device (Net Video Recording) an exit button, UPS unit (Unit Power Supply) and a metal door. A UPS unit was installed which allows energy to be distributed evenly to all installed devices; data cables were connected from the cameras to the router and finally the NVR, creating integrated communication between security devices; the locks were installed on the door taking into account the parallel connection and exit button for opening the door from inside the establishment, tests were carried out coordinating access cycles, the personnel record and video-recording of activities. By automating security monitoring and access control, the psychological conflicts that the human condition sometimes presents are reduced; optimizing the surveillance and better protecting the materials, tools, equipment and teaching machines belonging to the laboratory.
