FelixAccess is a remote access control system that allows users to manage a door and gate via a web application. The project combines a Firebase-based backend and a Vue.js frontend that can be used on both desktop and mobile devices.
The purpose of FelixAccess is to provide a simple and efficient solution for controlling access to a property. Authorized users can open and close the door and gate remotely through the web, eliminating the need to be physically present. The system can be managed from anywhere with an internet connection, offering both convenience and security.
The backend is built using Firebase, a cloud service that manages user authentication, handles the operations to control the door and gate, and logs access records. Additionally, the backend processes requests to open and close the access points that are sent from the web application.
The system uses the MQTT protocol to communicate with the access devices (the door and gate). MQTT is a lightweight messaging protocol that allows real-time communication between the backend and the devices, ensuring a fast and efficient response when opening or closing the access points.
The frontend is a web application built with Vue.js that offers a user-friendly interface. Through this interface, users can:
- View the current status of the door and gate.
- Open or close both access points with a single click.
- Access the system from any device, as the application is optimized for both mobile and desktop use.
- Remote Access Control: Users can open and close the door and gate remotely through the web application, without being physically present.
- User Security and Management: User management ensures that only authorized individuals can perform operations within the system.
- Real-Time Accessibility: The status of the door and gate is updated in real-time, providing users with accurate information about each access point.
- MQTT Protocol: The system utilizes MQTT to send commands to open and close the devices, ensuring efficient and fast communication.
The goal of FelixAccess is to provide a reliable and accessible access control system that enhances security and convenience by eliminating the need for physical operations.
