room management project

[Mattia93]

Hello everyone,

I'm seeking advice and guidance for a meeting/conference room management project in an office building, specifically regarding integration with an access control system based on the Logic Machine LM5 from Embedded Systems.

Context:

• The building has a reception area and approximately 5 rooms (meeting/conference rooms).
  
• Each room is equipped with an electrified door, without physical keypads or badge readers.
  

Required Functionality:

1. Web Booking Calendar:
   • We need a web page (on a local server) with an Outlook-like calendar.
     
   • Reception staff and some executives should be able to access this page to book/block rooms.
     
   • The calendar should display availability and bookings for each room, date, and time.
     
2. Integrated Access Control:
   • Once a booking's date and time are confirmed, the system must send an email to the person indicated in the booking (typically an executive).
     
   • Only this person should be able to access the booked room's entrance.
     
   • Access to the booked entrance must be exclusively via a dedicated mobile application (the "SERVER app"), without the use of physical badges or keypads. The email will contain a "token" or "key" that the app will use to authorize door opening.
     

How can I implement this access control logic and integration with the Logic Machine LM5?

Thank you in advance for your help!

What you are asking is not possible out of the box. It would require a custom development. If you have the skills you can try but it is not an easy task. See our apps documentation.
