Cominfo Dual: Redefining Security with Luxurious Design

David Polasek's Award-Winning Entrance RFID Reader

The Cominfo Dual, designed by David Polasek, is a unique entrance RFID reader that stands out for its clean, luxurious design and intuitive features. The design was inspired by the desire to achieve a minimalist shape for the casing, resulting in a clear geometric solid with a soft radius and a beautifully crafted chamfer edge on a glass panel. The product is highly resistant due to its hard glass top cover, making it suitable for a variety of exteriors and interiors.

What sets the Cominfo Dual apart from other devices in its category are its unique features. The device has an automatic LED backlight dimming feature that adjusts the brightness according to light conditions. It also provides vibration feedback when a key is pressed for PIN input. These features, coupled with its luxurious design and various color options, make it a standout product in its category.

The Cominfo Dual is encased in a water-resistant plastic case with a hard top glass panel. It comes in two shapes - slim type with dimensions of 123 × 53 × 20 mm and square type with dimensions of 85 × 85 × 20 mm. The device supports standard types of smart cards and proximity badges at 125 kHz and 13.56 MHz, making it versatile and adaptable to various security needs.

The design process for the Cominfo Dual began in May 2016 in Czechia and was completed in December 2016. The main challenge was to create a unique luxury looking casing without bolts and visible fixation. Another challenge was the production of the glass panel and its shiny chamfer edge. The final challenge was setting the LED light intensity in all conditions and ensuring the vibration feedback of the front panel worked effectively.

The Cominfo Dual has been recognized for its innovative design and functionality. It was awarded Silver in the A' Security, Safety and Surveillance Products Design Award in 2018. This prestigious award is given to top-of-the-line, creative, and professionally remarkable designs that demonstrate outstanding expertise and innovation. The Cominfo Dual, with its strong technical characteristics and splendid artistic skill, certainly fits this description.

In conclusion, David Polasek's Cominfo Dual is a testament to the power of design in enhancing the functionality and aesthetics of security devices. Its unique features, coupled with its luxurious design, make it a standout product in its category. The Cominfo Dual is not just a security device; it's a piece of art that redefines the way we perceive security solutions.
