With the gradual popularization of intelligent communities, the demand for access control systems for residential projects is also increasing day by day. Therefore, the degree of competition in the access control industry can be imagined.
According to statistics from China Security Network, in accordance with an average annual growth rate of around 25%, the market size of domestic access control systems is expected to reach more than RMB 5 billion in 2010, becoming a “three pillars†for security systems that stand side by side with burglar alarm systems and video surveillance systems. . Specifically, in the 20 or less small projects, domestic manufacturers occupy the absolute main force, and in the 100 or more large projects, Chinese enterprises can only share about 1/4 of the market.
Foreign companies place more emphasis on the development and innovation of access control system technology, while local companies focus on market promotion and can quickly follow up on market demand, but they still lag behind. For example, the main product of many domestic enterprises is the "one card" access control system. Its advantages are low price and convenient installation. However, due to the lack of product standards and industry standards, there are more and more problems such as poor stability and low price dumping. He believes that the future of China's access control industry lies in the technology, otherwise it can only be "can eat, eat well."
As the biometric technology continues to mature, the market for biometric access control systems is gradually heating up. Taking the most mature and rapid fingerprint identification access control system as an example, the core component is the fingerprint identification chip. According to statistics, the global fingerprint sensor market will increase from 2.34 billion U.S. dollars in 2004 to 4.38 billion U.S. dollars in 2011. The transnational giant SAGEM has an absolute advantage, and Chinese domestic manufacturers such as ADEL and Core Micro have also successfully developed fingerprint identification chips, which are expected to gain a share in this emerging market.
Insiders pointed out that in the future there will be more intelligent identification technology, alarm technology and shortcut operation will be applied to the access control system. Access control suppliers will work more and more diversifiedly with contractors, software developers, security companies, and properties to bring more security to users.
