This article demonstrates person localization using a hybrid system consisting of an electromagnetic positioning system and a depth camera to authorize access control. The ultimate aim of this system is to distinguish moving people in a defined area by tracking the RF device and the people. It focuses on the application and incorporation of the received data from these two systems. Both systems send data simultaneously which is stored in a Docker container for further analysis. The data is processed in real-time to track the movement of the targets. The centralized database monitoring grants secure access to the information. The motive for using this hybrid system lies in the ever-growing need for accurate position determination for indoor and complex environments. Track and tracing are especially important in access-control applications. The system has a great impact on real-life access-control applications in malls, shops, train stations, and generally everyplace where the access control requires monitoring. The non-blocking feature plus the accuracy can provide ease of use for the users. Moreover, employing a low-frequency tag system does not suffer from the multipath effect and non-line of sight problems that are inevitable for indoor applications. By extending the number of users for a larger area, this system can replace traditional security gates with a pleasant look and comfortable application.
