ADVANCED ACCESS CONTROL SYSTEM

A prototype voice verification system has been installed which provides the required positive identification at the main site access control point. This system compares an individual's f i le voice print with a sample voice print obtained from the individual when an attempt is made to enter the site. The voice system transmits the i n d i v i d u a l ' s identity to a central processor. The central processor associates that individual's authorization file with a card-key obtained at the access point. The system generates a record of personnel movement, provides a personnel inventory on a real-time basis, and it can retrieve a record of all prior events. The system installed at the Barnwell Nuclear Fuel Plant is described.
