Abstract:
A system includes a door that selectively grants access to a secured area from a first area and a scanner accessible from the first area that is configured to read a scannable code of a travel document, such as a boarding pass, to identify travel details of a user and user details that are represented by the scannable code. The system also includes a converter in communication with the scanner, with the converter being configured to generate a first access key code based on the identified travel details and the identified user details. The system also includes a control panel in communication with the converter, with the control panel being configured to grant access to the secured area via the door in response to a comparison of the first access key code to a registered access key code.
