Abstract

The invention relates to a terminal for determining a person data, in particular for an access control or authorization comprising a housing and several devices for detecting biometric data and the person body height sensor, wherein the terminal is provided with devices for adjusting the height of the several operating detection devices.

Claims

1. :

Terminal for recording biometric data of a person, especially for physical access control or for logical access control, having a housing and a plurality of recording devices for the biometric data, and also having a height sensor for the person, wherein the terminal is equipped with means for vertically positioning a plurality of recording devices in a service condition.

2. :

Terminal for recording biometric data of a person, especially for physical access control or for logical access control, having a housing and a recording device for biometric data, and also having a height sensor for the person and means for vertically positioning the recording device, especially according to claim 1, comprising a controller that, at the beginning of a recording sequence, lowers the recording device from the top down to a service height, especially from a resting height corresponding at least substantially to a maximum height of vertical positioning.

3. :

Terminal according to claim 1, wherein the means for vertical positioning are set up to position the housing vertically together with the plurality of recording devices.

4. :

Terminal according to claim 3, wherein the means for vertical positioning are set up to position the housing vertically together with all the recording devices.

5. :

Terminal for recording biometric data of a person, especially for physical access control or for logical access control, having a housing and a recording device for biometric data, and also having a height sensor for the person installed in or on the housing, especially according to claim 1, wherein the terminal is equipped with means for vertical positioning in a service condition.

6. :

Terminal according to claim 1, wherein a camera is installed at a fixed angle.

7. :

Terminal according to claim 1, comprising an image recording capability.

8. :

Terminal according to claim 1, comprising a facial proportion recording capability.

9. :

Terminal according to claim 1, comprising a fingerprint recording capability.

10. :

Terminal according to claim 1, comprising an iris recording capability.

11. :

Terminal according to claim 1, comprising a retina recording capability.

12. :

Terminal according to claim 1, wherein the means for vertical positioning are provided with a motor drive mounted in stationary manner.

13. :

Terminal for recording biometric data of a person, especially for physical access control or for logical access control, having a housing and a recording device for biometric data, and also having means for vertically positioning the recording device, especially according to claim 1, comprising a round or tapered housing top.

14. :

Terminal for recording biometric data of a person, especially for physical access control or for logical access control, having a housing and a recording device for biometric data, and also having a vandalism-proof display, especially according to claim 1, wherein the display is configured as a touch screen.

15. :

Terminal for recording biometric data of a person, especially for physical access control or for logical access control, having a housing and a plurality of recording devices for biometric data, especially according to claim 1, wherein an electronic computer unit comprises a controller, especially a microprocessor, which is set up to relay the recorded biometric data from a camera image, a fingerprint image, an iris image and/or a retina image, as graphical data, to a separately disposed control server for analysis.

16. :

Terminal according to claim 1, comprising an identification document reader.

17. :

Terminal system having a plurality of terminals, each for recording biometric data of a person, especially for physical access control or for logical access control, having a plurality of recording devices for biometric data of the person, especially having a plurality of terminals according to claim 1, wherein a control server is provided that can communicate with the terminals, whereby the control server remotely controls the terminals, and whereby the terminals merely encrypt recorded data and relay them to the control server without storing them and/or processing them in any other way, especially analyzing them.

18. :

Method for recording biometric data of a person, especially for physical access control or for logical access control, having a terminal according to claim 1 wherein an identification entry is first made, and a language for voice guidance is selected on the basis of the identification entry.
