Smart badges are increasingly being integrated with the Internet of Things (IoT) and other smart devices to enhance functionality. This includes using smart badges for not just access control but also for interacting with smart office systems, like lighting and HVAC, based on the user's location and preferences. There is a growing trend toward incorporating biometric features, such as fingerprint recognition or facial recognition, into smart badges. This addition significantly enhances security by ensuring that the badge is being used by the authorized individual, making it more difficult to forge access or steal credentials.
There has been an increasing demand for customizable and personalized smart badges that can perform multiple functions tailored to the specific needs of an organization or individual. This includes custom access levels, personalized information display, and integrated personal health monitoring in some cases. A growing emphasis on sustainability has led to efforts towards reducing electronic waste, promoting recyclable materials and energy-efficient designs in badge production.
