Datawatch Systems DirectConnect is a mobile application-based access control solution designed for commercial buildings. It extends traditional physical access control by enabling contactless and hands-free interactions with building infrastructure. Key capabilities include: Contactless Door Unlock: Users can unlock access-controlled doors via the mobile app without physical contact with keypads or card readers. Hands-Free Elevator Control: The app allows users to call elevators and select floors directly from their mobile device. Siri shortcuts are supported for voice-activated door unlocking and elevator calls. Visitor Pass Management: Building tenants can issue visitor passes with configurable access levels. Passes can be delivered via QR code, PIN, or web link. An optional health questionnaire can be included, and the web link provides a simulated tenant app experience for visitors. Room and Space Reservations: Users can book conference rooms and amenity spaces, view reservation details including duration, and see confirmed reservations up to one week in advance. Physical credential access is granted for the reserved time frame. Area Density Monitoring: Real-time occupancy levels are visible to users within the app. Administrators can disable access to a space once maximum occupancy is reached. The solution supports multiple deployment methods, with options that require minimal upfront capital expenditure. Building Community Directory: The app provides a listing of important building contacts and information about local businesses in the surrounding area.
