Advantages for venues

The UltraQ-AMT provides tremendous operational advantages. When guests self-validate credentials, attendants can focus on customer service and crowd control, and a single staff member can monitor multiple devices. Because it takes up minimal floor space and is lightweight, the portable version can be easily moved and re-positioned based on crowd volume or social distance requirements. Powerful Wi-Fi maximizes the ability to space the UltraQ-AMT throughout the facility. The UltraQ-AMT also offers many user configurable features, including lighting colors, audio responses, screen messages and advertising, all of which support a great venue guest experience.

The UltraQ-AMT works seamlessly with Alvarado’s widely used GateLink10 admission control software, which is installed in hundreds of facilities, including some of the world’s largest stadiums. The product also communicates directly via API’s to leading ticketing companies and third-party systems.

Intuitive and comfortable for guests

The bright color TFT touchscreen display, and lights on top of the device, provide clear visual instructions to patrons. To provide further guidance, after validation, the turnstile arms increment forward approximately an inch to prompt the user that passage is now possible.

The UltraQ-AMT’s motorized drive system provides a smooth, controlled and nearly silent rotation. Alvarado’s intelligent closed loop drive system improves guest comfort and passage safety. Our precise rotation control allows a user to start the motorized rotation with just a touch of the horizontal turnstile arm. As an added benefit, the turnstile’s extended arm length provides a very comfortable passage width for patrons.

Same Unit Can Be Used for Entry or Exit Validation  

The UltraQ-AMT’s scan head supports switching between entry and exit configurations, allowing the same turnstile to support either entry or exit validation.

Automated Drop Arm

The drop arm function facilitates quick and easy patron exit after the event. Powering down the UltraQ-AMT drops the horizontal arm, providing a clear passageway. A “drop arm” software command can also be sent to drop the horizontal arm of any or all turnstiles. Once power is restored, or a “reset arm” command is sent, the arms automatically return to the normal operating position. The turnstile also has a dedicated fire system input if required by local fire codes.
