Tailgating
Critical secure areas need physical enforcement, not just detection, to prevent tailgating. In high-security environments such as data centers, laboratories, and restricted facilities, Opsys controlled mantraps should be used to ensure that only one person is present before access to a secure area is granted.
Why Opsys LiDAR?
Opsys LiDAR technology enables reliable, real-time tailgating prevention by continuously validating physical occupancy inside the man-trap, ensuring that access decisions are based on measurable reality, not visual inference.
Opsys LiDAR solution, ALTOS, is an all-in-one solution, reducing total cost of ownership (TCO) as well as false alarms. Based on pure solid-state scanning LiDAR, there are no moving parts providing a mean time between failures (MTBF) of 10+ years. ALTOS is a solution you can trust - so robust, Opsys ensures peace of mind with up to five years warranty.
With built-in perception and the option for direct interaction with digital relay devices, ALTOS enables local and remote tailgating prevention without relying on visual identification, external servers, or manual intervention.
ALTOS Security Solutions Include
Features & Benefits: Opsys ALTOS
-
All-in-one solution: With built-in perception at the edge, detection, tracking, and occupancy logic are performed directly on the sensor, reducing latency and removing the need for external analytics servers
-
Real-time prevention: Unlike camera-based systems that identify tailgating after it occurs, the ALTOS actively prevents unauthorized access by blocking door unlocks until occupancy rules are satisfied
-
Local & remote enforcement: Opsys ALTOS can interface directly with digital I/O and relay controllers to enforce access policies locally at the door or remotely via integrated security systems
-
Performance unaffected by lighting conditions: Lighting-independent operation ensures Opsys LiDAR is unaffected by darkness, backlighting, reflections, or glass surfaces. This ensures consistent enforcement inside or outside the man-trap
-
True solid-state reliability for 24/7 operation: With no moving parts, Opsys delivers predictable, maintenance-free performance in mission-critical access points. So reliable, customers can get up to 5yrs’ warranty. Opsys provides peace of mind, day after day, year after year
-
Privacy-preserving by design: ALTOS captures no facial features or identifiable imagery, supporting strict privacy and compliance requirements, critical for sensitive environments
-
3D Depth Perception: Unlike 2D cameras, Opsys LiDAR functions in 3D, allowing it to gauge the distance of individuals from sensitive areas. This identifies genuine threats and reduces false alarms
-
Seamless integration with access control systems: Through common digital I/O controllers, ALTOS works alongside existing badge readers, door controllers, alarms, and VMS platforms, enabling layered security without replacing infrastructure
-
Industry-standard connectors & field-serviceable cabling: Opsys uses standard ethernet connectors and cabling that are field-terminable and field-repairable, eliminating proprietary cables, fixed-length assemblies, and external interface boxes, while simplifying installation, maintenance, and on-site repairs
-
Low power, PoE operation: Opsys runs on standard Power-over-Ethernet, enabling simple installation, lower electrical costs, and even solar-powered or remote gate deployments
-
Built in USA: Opsys ALTOS is manufactured in the United States and Israel -
no Chinese manufacturing, owners, investors or financial backing

Why Opsys ALTOS LiDAR is
The Technology for Tailgating Prevention
-
Built-in, on-sensor perception: delivers detection, tracking, and classification directly from the sensor, no external perception computer, GPU, or software license required
-
True solid-state reliability: Opsys offers the only pure solid-state scanning LiDAR in the market. There are no moving parts, eliminating mechanical wear, calibration drift, and vibration issues common with rotating or micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) based LiDARs. Ideal for 24/7 gate operation
-
3D Depth Perception: Cameras only function in 2D whereas Opsys LiDAR operates in 3D, providing depth perception. This additional dimension detects how far an individual is from sensitive areas, such as server racks, and assesses their distance to determine if they pose a genuine threat. This also minimizes false alarms. Opsys ALTOS LiDAR can also operate in 4D, incorporating ambient data for even further situational awareness
-
Easier large-scale manufacturing and supply chain stability: solid-state LiDAR relies on semiconductor processes rather than precision electromechanics, improving yield, consistency, and long-term component availability
-
Lower price and lower total cost of ownership: solid-state architecture enables simpler manufacturing, faster production scaling, longer operational life, and significantly reduced maintenance compared to mechanical or MEMS-based LiDAR, driving down both upfront and lifecycle costs
-
Low heat generation with consistent performance: solid-state LiDAR design produces minimal heat. This maintains full laser power and detection range even in high ambient temperatures, avoiding thermal throttling common in other systems
-
Cold-weather resistant operation: with no moving parts to seize, stall, or require warming, LiDAR operates reliably in cold and freezing environments where rotating and mechanical systems are prone to failure
-
Installs like CCTV: industry-standard mounts, ethernet cabling, and PoE power mean ALTOS installs using the same tools, skills, and workflows integrators already in use for cameras
-
High resolution where it matters: provides exceptionally high spatial resolution in controlled zones like gates, enabling precise detection
-
Better suitability for fixed-zone applications: in controlled environments such as gates, access points, corridors, and perimeters, solid-state LiDAR delivers higher resolution where needed without wasting energy, network bandwidth and time scanning unused areas
-
Flexible lens options for gate geometry: multiple field-of-view and resolution configurations allow the same platform to adapt to single-lane, multi-lane, inbound, outbound, or shared gate layouts
-
Event-based outputs, no raw data overload: outputs actionable events directly from the sensor (vehicle detected, vehicle cleared, direction, speed) instead of raw point clouds, simplifying gate controller and programmable logic controller (PLC) integration
-
Ultra-low bandwidth footprint: on-board processing reduces network load from megabits per second to kilobits, allowing scalable deployments without expensive network upgrades
-
Instant visual verification during setup: ambient, intensity, and point-cloud views provided directly by the sensor allow installers to quickly confirm coverage, detection zones, and alignment, reducing commissioning time
-
Better resistance to vibration and shock: solid-state architectures tolerate vibration from nearby gates, traffic, wind, or industrial equipment without degrading performance or causing misalignment
-
Silent operation: no motors or moving components means zero acoustic noise, important for security environments
