Smart Door Auditor | Hardware Product Concept
Smart Door Auditor
Correlates badge events with anonymous person counting to flag possible tailgating.
Designed for Security. Source profile: Idea / Research; feasibility: High; prototype complexity: Medium.
Project text and technical scope
Problem addressed
Current Facilities / Security workflows often depend on manual checks, disconnected devices and delayed evidence.
Product vision
Correlates badge events with anonymous person counting to flag possible tailgating.
Hardware platform
Door sensor + camera + badge/RFID reader
Sensors and inputs
Badge event, person count, door state
AI and software
Tailgating and access anomaly detection
User workflow
Security use the device in-field; the system captures data, analyses it, requests human confirmation where needed and records the outcome.
Edge processing
Run latency/privacy-critical inference on device/edge; use server for fleet analytics, RAG, orchestration and reporting.
Connectivity
Ethernet
Mobile experience
Device pairing, live status, guided workflow, alerts, evidence review, offline sync and user actions.
Operations console
Fleet/device map, live events, health, incident queue, analytics, reports, configuration and audit history.
Safety and compliance
Access/privacy laws; human investigation for alerts.
Operational value
Door kit + software; value comes from measurable safety, traceability, downtime reduction or workflow automation.
Security and privacy
Secure device identity, encrypted transport/storage, RBAC, audit logs, minimum necessary personal data and configurable retention.
Commercial model
Door kit + software
Differentiation
Uses event correlation rather than facial recognition.
Demo scenario
Show a realistic operator using Smart Door Auditor; capture sensor/device event → AI analysis → alert/recommendation → human action → report.
