Smart Security & Access Control Touch Panels
— Security Control Panel OEM | Android & Linux | SMATEK
Custom Android/Linux touch panels for IP video intercom, access control, video monitoring, and security management
SMATEK develops and manufactures customizable smart control panels for security integrators, OEM brands, system architects, and product development teams.
Our open Android/Linux platforms support SIP video intercom, IP camera integration, edge AI, alarm inputs, PoE, RS485, relay/dry-contact interfaces, and customized I/O for professional security applications.
From hardware and PCB layout customization to firmware, UI/HMI, application deployment, and mass production, SMATEK provides complete OEM/ODM development support.
Open Android/Linux Platform for Security Applications
A modern security touch panel is more than a display. It can serve as a centralized security HMI and control interface for video intercom, access control, IP cameras, alarms, door control, and building security systems.
SMATEK’s open Android/Linux platforms allow customers to deploy and maintain their own applications and integrate the panel with existing security infrastructure.
Typical applications include:
- IP video intercom and indoor monitors
Access control terminals
IP camera and video monitoring interfaces
Alarm monitoring and security hubs
Face recognition and credential verification
Door and gate control
Building security and ELV integration
Custom security HMI and visualization
Customers can deploy their own Android applications, APKs, security management software, video management applications, and custom HMI interfaces.
Depending on the platform, SMATEK can support Kiosk Mode, custom launcher, application auto-start, ADB access, firmware customization, and system-level configuration.
Edge AI Face Recognition & Local Processing
For security applications requiring local computing, SMATEK offers high-performance platforms based on processors such as the Rockchip RK3576.
Our T13 13.3-inch platform uses an RK3576 octa-core processor (4× Cortex-A72 + 4× Cortex-A53) and runs Android 14, providing a modern platform for custom security applications.
Suitable applications include:
- Face recognition
Face detection
Identity verification
Access authorization
Local image analysis
Real-time security events
Local processing can provide low-latency response and reduced dependence on cloud processing for suitable access control and security applications.
IP Video Intercom, SIP & IP Camera Integration
SMATEK touch panels can be configured for professional IP video and audio communication applications.
Depending on the project architecture, the platform can support:
- SIP video intercom
SIP audio communication
IP indoor monitors
Door communication terminals
RTSP camera streams
ONVIF IP camera integration
Video monitoring interfaces
Two-way audio
Remote door release
This enables video intercom, IP camera viewing, access control, and door release functions to be integrated into a single wall-mounted touchscreen interface.
For projects requiring specific communication protocols or software integration, SMATEK can work with the customer’s development team on the required SDK/API, firmware, application, and communication architecture.
Custom PCB, I/O & Security Interfaces
Security installations often need to connect with existing controllers, sensors, locks, alarms, and building infrastructure.
SMATEK can customize the hardware and PCB according to project requirements.
Possible interfaces include:
- RS485
UART
GPIO
Relay outputs
Dry-contact inputs/outputs
Alarm inputs
Sensor interfaces
Camera interfaces
Ethernet
USB
Custom communication interfaces
For dedicated security applications, the PCB can also be designed with multi-channel alarm inputs, such as an 8-channel alarm input configuration where required.
Access Control, Relay & Dry-Contact Integration
For door and gate applications, the panel can provide relay outputs and dry-contact interfaces for integration with external access control hardware.
Typical applications include:
- Door unlocking
Electric lock control
Door release
Gate control
Access controller integration
Alarm relay control
Security event triggering
This allows the Android/Linux panel to function as a touchscreen access control interface, rather than simply a display terminal.
PoE, Ethernet & RS485 Connectivity
For professional security and building automation installations, SMATEK supports multiple wired and wireless connectivity options.
- Wired Connectivity
PoE (Power over Ethernet)
Ethernet
RS485
UART
GPIO
USB
Relay / dry-contact interfaces
Wireless Connectivity
Wi-Fi
Bluetooth
Zigbee / Zigbee 3.0 module integration
PoE can provide power and network communication through a single Ethernet connection, making it suitable for wall-mounted IP intercom, access control, indoor monitor, and security HMI terminals.
RS485 can be used to communicate with external controllers and devices according to the project’s communication architecture.
Alarm Monitoring & Security HMI
SMATEK panels can be customized as centralized security HMI and alarm monitoring terminals.
Applications may include:
- Intrusion alarm monitoring
Emergency alarm monitoring
Door and window status
Sensor status display
Security event notifications
Environmental sensor monitoring
Centralized security control
Building security visualization
With customized alarm inputs and communication interfaces, the panel can be integrated into existing security infrastructure without requiring a proprietary software ecosystem.
Zigbee & Wireless Security Integration
For applications requiring wireless sensors and devices, SMATEK can provide hardware-ready interfaces for Zigbee 3.0 module integration.
Potential applications include:
- Door/window sensors
Motion sensors
Smart locks
Alarm devices
Wireless switches
Smart home security devices
Depending on the system architecture, the Android/Linux panel can function as a local security control interface and wireless device gateway.
MCU + LVGL Security HMI
Not every security application requires a full Android operating system.
For cost-sensitive or single-purpose terminals, SMATEK also provides MCU-based control panel solutions using LVGL.
An MCU + LVGL architecture can be suitable for:
- Low power consumption
Fast boot time
Dedicated HMI
Simple graphical interfaces
Deterministic system behavior
Cost-optimized hardware
Single-purpose security terminals
This provides an alternative to Android for applications that do not require a full application ecosystem.
