UPSC and competitive exam libraries run 10 PM–6 AM night shifts. 24Library's QR gate works 24/7. Students self-manage entry and exit. Owner can be asleep — the system handles everything.
A morning shift member cannot scan in at night. The gate knows each member's authorized shift and rejects unauthorized attempts. Prevents shift-hopping without confrontation.
Each QR code is unique to the member and encrypted. It cannot be screenshotted and shared. Validity is re-verified at every scan from the server. This is security grade access control.
