The invention relates to the field of
access control systems, and discloses an
access control system realizing people flow counting control and a working method of the
access control system. According to the access
control system, a people flow counting module comprising a counting unit and a people detecting unit is arranged, people entering an access control passage can be recognized, the purpose of counting people flows is achieved, and accordingly, after the access
control system is opened for a single time, only the people passing
authentication can be allowed to pass through the access control passage; remote alarm can be triggered after excess people pass through the access control passage, the access control passage is blocked automatically, the
system enters a management mode of site access control by a remote monitoring center, unauthorized people can be prevented from passing through the access control passage through following, accompanying security holes are eliminated, and property security of unmanned stores and self-service shops are ensured. Besides, the access
control system can be used as a security access control system for the unmanned stores, the self-service shops,
ticket exits and other places, and actual promotion and application are facilitated.
