Asia Pacific Electronic Access Control Systems MarketPublished by: Frost & Sullivan Published: Apr. 2, 2009 - 251 Pages Table of Contents
AbstractThis Frost & Sullivan research service titled Asia Pacific Electronic Access Control Systems Market provides country-specific response of the market for electronic access control systems (EACS) in physical access control for both hardware and software. In this research, Frost & Sullivan's expert analysts thoroughly examine the following technologies: proximity cards and readers, keypads, biometrics, controller, integrated keys, and software for the key Asia Pacific countries, excluding Japan.Market Overview Rising Terror Threats Create Immense Potential for Electronic Access Control Systems in the Asia Pacific Security Industry The Asia Pacific market for access control systems is an optimistic one, with potential for significant growth in the less developed countries, where there is a greater need for security. In recent times, the increasing terrorist threats have been driving the government and private sectors to invest more in security. Safety concerns, backed by declining prices of card-based EACS, have considerably improved the uptake of this technology. “As technologies improve and competition soars, prices will decline, making EACS affordable to almost all businesses,” says the analyst of this research. “Technological advances have also made EACS more user-friendly; most card-based EACS simply need the user to hold the card close to the reader.” Additionally, the graphic user interface will make it easier to program and check the authorization of a person. These advancements in the field of access control technology not only help companies to offer better-quality products, but are also helping them reduce production costs, which will, in turn, lower prices. Despite the lowering of prices, the market is still being challenged by low-cost imports from China and Taiwan. Although the imported equipment is cheaper than domestic EACS equipment, they are of inferior quality, thereby discouraging the buyers and restraining the market. Most users prefer readers that support multi-application functions, offer high security, and are reasonably priced. “Smart cards have been successful for this reason, as they function as bank cards, meal cards, as well as door access cards,” notes the analyst. “Smart cards that are likely to be used for logical access purposes in offices will experience higher demand.” Integration of biometrics with other types of EACS is also gaining popularity when cost is not a concern, as biometrics is much more expensive than other EACS.
