About the Akuvox A05S
The Akuvox A05S is a dedicated face recognition terminal for access control, not a door phone: staff or residents walk up, look at it, and the door opens without touching anything. A deep-learning algorithm recognises a face in under 0.2 seconds with an accuracy Akuvox puts above 99.7%, and a second camera checks for liveness, so a printed photo or a video on a phone will not open the door.
It stores 20,000 faces and 20,000 cards and keeps a log of 50,000 events, so attendance and entry history can be pulled from it. Besides faces it accepts 13.56 MHz cards, NFC phones and QR codes, which is useful for visitors or contractors who have not been enrolled.
The 5-inch IPS screen (1280 × 720) shows the user their own image during recognition. The 2MP camera has wide dynamic range for entrances with bright backlight. It works standalone, with one relay output and one input for the door, or links to an access control system through Wiegand and RS485. Setup is in a web browser.
The plastic housing is IP65, wall-mounted, and rated from -20 °C to +60 °C. It runs on 802.3af PoE or 12V DC. A version with a wrist temperature sensor, the A05S (MD01), is listed separately.

Akuvox A05S questions
Can a photo open the Akuvox A05S?
No. It uses two cameras and an anti-spoofing algorithm that rejects printed photos and videos shown to it.
How many people can the A05S recognise?
Up to 20,000 faces, plus 20,000 cards, with a 50,000-event log.
Does the A05S work without a separate controller?
Yes. It operates standalone with its own relay for the door, or connects to an access control system through Wiegand or RS485.
What is the difference between the A05S and the A05S (MD01)?
The MD01 version adds a wrist temperature sensor that measures at 1 to 5 cm. Face recognition and the other functions are the same.
