From Accurate Recognition to Effective Management
Homsh | Open Ecosystem All-Domain Access Control Platform Officially Launched
For more than a decade, Homsh has focused on perfecting one core mission: enabling machines to accurately answer the question "Who are you?".
From self-developed Qianxin FPGA chips and high-precision iris recognition modules to various terminal devices covering access control, attendance management, vaults and ports, Homsh's hardware and algorithms have been deployed in hundreds of project sites across China. With a recognition accuracy on the order of 1 in 1 billion and a False Match Rate (FMR) as low as below 10⁻⁶, it has reached the top-tier level in the biometric recognition field.
However, as user scales expand from "a single door" to "an entire industrial park or a corporate group", a new reality has gradually emerged: on-site equipment is no longer exclusively from Homsh.
Facial recognition machines, fingerprint attendance terminals, surveillance cameras, and third-party access controllers — they come from different manufacturers, operate in isolation, and lack a unified platform for coordinated management. Security staff need to operate multiple systems simultaneously, data cannot be interconnected, and abnormal alarms are difficult to link up.
Accurate recognition is only the beginning; effective management is the ultimate goal.
In June 2026, Homsh officially launched the Honglian GatePro IoT All-Domain Access Control Platform. This is a comprehensive strategic upgrade to the original EyeCatch access control management software, and a critical step in Homsh's transformation from a core component supplier to an open ecosystem platform operator.
Limitations of EyeCatch, Breakthroughs of GatePro
EyeCatch is the first-generation access control management software launched by Homsh. It runs stably with complete functions within the closed-loop ecosystem of Homsh's proprietary terminals, helping numerous customers achieve unified scheduling of iris recognition systems. But it has one fundamental limitation: it only works with Homsh devices.
When a customer's park has cameras, access controllers and identity recognition terminals from multiple brands at the same time, EyeCatch falls short — customers have to maintain multiple systems, leading to high operating costs and persistent security vulnerabilities. GatePro breaks down this barrier.
Core Breakthrough 1: Open Access. Based on standard IoT protocols (supporting mainstream interfaces such as ONVIF, Wiegand and OSDP), GatePro is compatible with third-party multimodal biometric devices, access controllers and security products in addition to the full range of Homsh terminals, truly realizing "one platform to manage the entire site".
Core Breakthrough 2: Multimodal Fusion Authentication. It is not just about iris recognition. GatePro simultaneously supports face, fingerprint, iris and multimodal combined authentication, automatically matching the optimal verification strategy for different scenarios — iris + face two-factor authentication for high-security areas, and single-factor fast access for ordinary areas, balancing security and efficiency.
Core Breakthrough 3: All-Domain Linked Alarm. Alarms in traditional access control systems are isolated — when an abnormality is triggered on one device, other systems have no awareness of it. GatePro establishes a unified event bus. Once a security incident is triggered at an access point, it can automatically link video cameras to retrieve footage, notify administrators, and lock related channels, forming a complete security response closed loop.
Qianxin Advantages: Differentiated Moat in an Open Ecosystem
Opening up does not mean abandoning core advantages. In GatePro's open ecosystem, Homsh's proprietary terminals equipped with Qianxin series FPGA chips still hold irreplaceable competitiveness. Qianxin chips directly solidify the Phaselirs™ iris recognition algorithm onto FPGA hardware, achieving:
Core Performance Indicators of Qianxin
● Recognition response time ≤ 300ms · Supports 1:1 billion-level matching database
● False Match Rate (FMR) as low as 10⁻⁶ order of magnitude · Operable offline without network
● Biometric features never leave the chip, architectural-level privacy protection
Within the GatePro platform system, Homsh hardware terminals are connected as "first-class citizens", enjoying the most complete functional support and optimal recognition performance. Although third-party devices can be accessed, they cannot replicate Qianxin's core advantages in accuracy, speed and security level — this is Homsh's strategic design to maintain differentiated competitiveness in the open ecosystem.
Three Types of Target Customers, Three Core Values
Enterprise Parks & Industrial Factories: Large manufacturing enterprises usually have dozens of access points, thousands of employees and contractor personnel. GatePro provides unified personnel permission management, attendance data aggregation and visitor management functions, replacing the traditional multi-system parallel operation mode and is expected to reduce security operation costs by more than 30%.
Financial Institutions & Data Centers: High-security scenarios such as bank vaults and IDC rooms have zero tolerance for false recognition. With iris recognition as the core verification method, combined with multi-factor authentication strategies and complete operation log auditing, GatePro meets financial-level compliance requirements and supports docking with national standards such as GB/T 41988.
Ports & Public Infrastructure: High-traffic scenarios such as airports and ports require mixed deployment of multimodal devices, balancing fast passage and accurate identity verification. GatePro's open access capability and all-domain linked alarms make it an ideal management foundation for such scenarios.
From Components to Platform: A Strategic Leap
The launch of GatePro is not just a product upgrade, but also marks an important evolution of Homsh's business model. In the past, Homsh's revenue mainly came from hardware sales — chips, modules and terminal devices. With the launch of the GatePro platform, software subscriptions and SaaS-based operations will become a new growth pole: platform licensing fees, subscription models billed by the number of connected devices, and value-added services (AI analysis, cloud backup, API docking) — this is a more sustainable business path.
More importantly, GatePro builds an ecological moat: the more third-party devices are connected and the more complex the deployment scenarios are, the higher the value of the platform and the greater the customer migration cost, which is the core moat for software platform providers.
According to IDC data, China's physical access control and identity authentication market exceeded 28 billion yuan in 2025, with a compound annual growth rate of approximately 12%. With the acceleration of smart park and smart city construction, platform-based products with multimodal fusion and open access capabilities will occupy an increasingly important market position.
One Core, Two Wings: The Complete Puzzle of OVAI + Qianxin + GatePro
The launch of GatePro has formed a clear "one core, two wings" pattern in Homsh's product system:
Algorithm Core (One Core): Phaselirs™ phase-based iris recognition algorithm + OVAI deep learning end-to-end optimization, forming an irreplicable technical moat with dual leadership in recognition accuracy and anti-interference capability.
Hardware Wing: Qianxin FPGA series chips + iris recognition modules + various terminal devices, covering the complete hardware chain from chips to terminals, with edge-side intelligence and flexible deployment.
Software Wing: Honglian GatePro open ecosystem management platform, transforming hardware value into continuous platform service value, and achieving a strategic leap from selling products to operating an ecosystem.
Recognizing you is only the first step.
Managing access effectively is the goal.
Homsh, with 15 years of technical accumulation, is redefining the boundaries of all-domain identity management.
