Micro
technologies launches Micro DAS system
Mumbai based Micro Technologies (India), an ISO 9001 certified
total IT solutions has launched Micro DAS system (Micro Door
Access Security System), an innovative security product that
allows one to know whenever anyone has access to your door
at a particular location, through an SMS message, or e-mail.
If the access is by an unauthorised person, the authentic
user/users get a message of such intrusion and
more importantly an instant message is also sent to the nearest
police station with a location map of such unauthorised access
and with the road map for reaching the location, through GIS.
Thus, this system enables instant preventive action by police
incase of disasters that could result due to burglary attempts
at banks, jewellery shops, warehouses, hospitals, even residential
flat, etc. wherever such a device is installed on the door.
