Crestron announces ekey Biometric Systems, a leading provider of fingerprint access solutions, is an official integration partner-- meaning the sleek wall-mounted ekey finger scanners integrate seamlessly with Crestron 3-Series control systems.

Thus, Crestron installers can add convenient one-touch door entry to smart home designs. Fingerprint door entry also enhances security by eliminating hackable 4-digit codes, as well as the possibility of key or access card forgery. ekey adds the system can even detect the growth of children's fingers, minor injuries and habit changes, and allows building control systems to keep track of who is coming in.

“ekey and Crestron took up the challenge of making door entry more secure and convenient,” Crestron says. “To deliver on that, we focused on one of the aspects that makes us unique as human beings-- fingerprints. Now, in essence, your finger is the key to your Crestron smart home.”

Installation promises to be simple, since ekey products are compatible with Crestron 3-Series control systems with an RS485 COM port and SIMPL Windows software.
