Salto has announced the release of its new face recognition access control solution, Salto XS4 Face, developed to provide fast and secure hands-free access. Designed with a strong focus on privacy, flexibility, and user experience, this innovation signifies a step forward in smart access technology.
Quick and Secure Access
Salto XS4 Face leverages facial recognition technology to enable hassle-free access to Salto points. By utilizing facial features as the sole credential, access is granted in less than a second, eliminating the need for traditional keys or cards. This feature promises a blend of convenience and enhanced security.
Simplified Installation Process
The XS4 Face solution streamlines both hardware and software installation
The XS4 Face solution streamlines both hardware and software installation, addressing common challenges in deployment. Its high-security measures ensure that users can quickly and safely gain entry. The comprehensive solution, incorporating algorithm, hardware, software, and support, seamlessly integrates with existing Salto systems, negating the need for third-party integrations.
Effortless User Onboarding
With XS4 Face, user enrollment is designed to be intuitive and straightforward. The mobile self-enrollment process eliminates the need for users to converge at a central location or download an application. This frictionless onboarding enhances user experience while maintaining efficiency and security.
Privacy-Focused Design
Privacy is a key aspect of XS4 Face. The system operates locally, ensuring that no images are stored. Images captured during access attempts are immediately converted into biometric templates and deleted within 0.3 seconds, protecting user data. The inclusion of liveness detection further safeguards against unauthorized access through spoofing methods.
Integration with Smart Access Ecosystem
XS4 Face is an integral component of Salto’s smart access ecosystem, complementing existing electronic door locks and infrastructure.
It supports multiple credential options beyond facial recognition, including mobile keys, RFID devices, and PIN codes, thereby offering flexible access strategies tailored to various environments and security needs. This integration within Salto Space emphasizes a holistic approach to access control, balancing privacy and convenience in a scalable manner.
Salto, a pioneer in electronic access control solutions, continues to advance smart access innovation with Salto XS4 Face, a face recognition access control solution designed to deliver fast, secure, and hands-free access while prioritising privacy, flexibility, and user experience.
Salto XS4 Face’s face recognition technology is engineered to provide convenient, secure access to Salto access points, requiring only a face as a credential and granting access in under a second. Each user gains access effortlessly through a unique access credential – their face – eliminating the need for physical keys or keycards.
Removing common installation
XS4 Face makes access simple and intuitive, while meeting the highest security and privacy requirements. With automated and streamlined hardware and software installation, deployment is faster and easier, removing common installation and operational challenges. Built-in high security and privacy ensure a safe and seamless user experience, allowing users to access spaces quickly – saving time while maintaining a secure environment.
XS4 Face is designed for straightforward deployment, with simplified hardware installation and automated software configuration and commissioning. No third-party software or additional integration is required. The entire solution, including algorithm, hardware, software, and ongoing support, is delivered by Salto and works seamlessly with existing Salto door locks and building infrastructure.
Frictionless onboarding experience
XS4 Face provides an intuitive enrollment service, making onboarding users quick and easy – without the need to download an app. Onboarding can be done from anywhere, on any device. Users do not need to come to a central point to register their faces. Instead, XS4 Face guides them through an easy mobile self-enrollment process, ensuring a frictionless onboarding experience.
Salto XS4 Face is designed with privacy at its core. The local, on-premise system does not store any images. When a user approaches the XS4 Face camera, their image is captured and converted into a biometric template for comparison with the gallery of enrolled users. In all cases, the access request image and the resulting biometric template are deleted within 0.3 seconds. Built-in liveness detection helps prevent spoofing attempts that use photos, videos, or masks, ensuring only genuine users gain access.
Unified smart access ecosystem
Powered by Salto’s advanced access control technology, XS4 Face works with existing electronic Salto door locks and building infrastructure. XS4 Face merges convenience and security, ensuring a smooth entry experience every time. XS4 Face is currently integrated into Salto Space, Salto’s pioneering SVN data-on-card access control.
As part of Salto’s smart access ecosystem, XS4 Face supports multiple credential options, allowing organizations to design access strategies that fit different users, environments, and security requirements: face recognition, mobile or digital keys, RFID keycards or fobs, and PIN codes. With XS4 Face, Salto delivers a secure, scalable access control solution that balances privacy, convenience, and control as part of a unified smart access ecosystem.
