Solutions for every type of show

Daicon's access control system with ticket validation is explicitly intended for trade fairs, conferences, concerts, festivals and theatre, as documented on the website.

Trade fairs

Management of entries for exhibitors, visitors and authorised staff.

Events and shows

Access control and flow management, including concerts and festivals.

Conferences and conventions

Control of participants' access and of authorised areas.

Theatre

Access control with admission ticket validation.

From ticket to entry

The configuration may change depending on the type of event and the organiser's needs: not all events necessarily use every element of the process.

1

Ticket / QR / Barcode

The visitor has a digital (QR Code, barcode) or paper ticket.

2

Reading

The reader integrated into the turnstile captures the code in less than a second.

3

Verification

The software queries the centralised database to validate the ticket in real time.

4

Authorisation

The system confirms that the ticket is valid, not yet used and correct for the date and time slot.

5

Turnstile / gate

If the check is successful, the turnstile unlocks automatically.

6

Entry

The visitor enters the event; the ticket is marked as used.

Manage flows during the event

All the event's gates are synchronised in real time: a ticket validated at one entrance is immediately marked as used at all the others, preventing simultaneous double entries. The system distributes entries across the available gates and flags any critical points in real time, helping to organise entrances, exits, different areas and restricted access.

Multi-gate synchronisation Automatic distribution of entries Critical point alerts Real-time data

One event, several types of access

The supported identification technologies β€” QR Code, barcode and badge β€” make it possible to distinguish different categories of people entering.

Visitors present their ticket at the turnstile; the integrated reader captures the code and the software checks it in real time against the centralised database, opening the gate only if the result is positive.

Can entries be controlled using QR Codes?

Yes, the system reads QR Codes and 1D/2D barcodes, both from smartphones and from printed tickets.

Can turnstiles be used for a temporary event?

Yes, Daicon offers a turnkey turnstile rental service explicitly intended for trade fairs and events.

Can several types of access be managed?

Yes, the system supports several identification technologies (QR, barcode, badge) that can be used to distinguish visitors, staff and exhibitors.

Can access be monitored during the event?
