SAM gives developers the tools needed to create applications that enhance everyday experiences for people by changing the way they interact with physical spaces including offices, restaurants, arenas and other large venues.

With a vision of becoming the single sign-on for the physical world, Brivo Labs designed its SAM API to authenticate visitors and associate many kinds of secure credentials to access actual devices and spaces. Social authentication and provisioning of access is implemented by connecting with leading social network platforms such as Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and Google+.

Brivo Labs is a partner of the Circus Mashimus lounge hosted by Mashery, an Intel Company, for SXSW Interactive. To highlight the capabilities of SAM, Brivo Labs with demo OKdoor, a Google Glass application released this January that allows users to remotely open doors and Rändivoo, the all-in-one visitor management and experience system. Brivo Labs also created a custom Scan2win app to showcase SAM’s machine-to-machine connectivity to developers using lights and a bell to indicate if they are a winner of a prize.
