Scanning a Checkpoint
Checkpoints are specific physical locations marked with a QR code that can be scanned using the Vismo Locate & Protect app. These are typically placed at key areas such as building entrances and exits, high-risk zones, laboratories, or secure rooms. Scanning a Checkpoint allows users to log their presence at a location, helping to improve visibility, safety, and compliance across an organisation.
QR codes are automatically generated when a Checkpoint is created in your Vismo account. These codes can be printed and placed at key locations such as building entrances, exits, or high-risk internal areas.
End users can scan these QR codes using their mobile phone's camera, provided they have the Vismo Locate & Protect app installed on their device.
