College benefits from browser-based access control
G
rosvenor Technology’s new SATEON browser-based access control system has revolutionised Gateway College’s management of its security, student attendance and daily registration. The College was an existing user of Grosvenor Technology’s JANUS access control system, when it chose to upgrade to SATEON, allowing it to tap into unparalleled features and integration capability.
SATEON is a 100% browser-based access control system without compromise, allowing system configuration and administration tasks to be done from any PC on the network or from anywhere with secure remote access over the internet. SATEON is a resilient IP-network based solution that uses an industry- standard scalable Microsoft SQL Database. This was another reason the College chose SATEON for its upgrade, as it allowed seamless integration with other SQL-based systems in the College, such as GLIDE - Gateway Learning Information & Data Environment.
As SATEON is fully compatible with the JANUS hardware, Gateway College was able to completely reuse all of its card readers, Intelligent Door Controllers (IDC) and network infrastructure.

Gadget-loving schoolchildren step back in time
M
ore than 160 UK schoolchildren have taken part in workshops to learn what life was like 60 years ago before the influx of technology. The project, by archiving website Historypin and npower, gave children the opportunity to view photos from times gone by and the chance to document their own family history on a global online energy archive -
www.historypin.com/rememberhow.
The site gives schoolchildren and the wider public the opportunity to view images from the past and also add their own, recording the history of energy and technology in the UK.
