A spacer for a keyless-entry vehicle door handle of the type including mateable body and cover portions, and at least one electronic component disposed in an internal space of the handle defined by the body and cover portions, the at least one electronic component having first and second portions each arranged in proximity to one or the other of opposing interior surfaces of the body and cover portions of the handle. The spacer includes a compressible member disposed in the internal space of the handle, the compressible member having a body with opposite surfaces each facing one of the opposing interior surfaces of the body and cover portions of the handle, and recesses formed in each of the opposite surfaces, each recess dimensioned to receive therein one or the other of the first and second portions of the at least one electronic component. The compressible member is dimensioned so as to be compressed between the opposing interior surfaces of the body and cover portions of the handle so that, when the compressible member is compressed, each of the first and second portions of the at least one electronic component are urged into intimate contact with one or the other of the opposing interior surfaces of the body and cover portions of the handle.

Systems and methods are disclosed for maintaining security and data gathering for a number of vehicles. The systems include a vehicle activity module for each of the vehicles. The vehicle activity module has a wireless transmitter, a storage device, at least one sensor for receiving event information from identification devices, such as RFID cards, keypads, magnetic ID cards, and the like, a releasable key container, and a processor for accessing and analyzing information. The VAMs are wirelessly connected to a computer system. The VAMs control access to the keys, monitor information relating to access, and store and transmit information relating to sales events, non-sales events, and intrusion events. The VAMs are capable of autonomous operation, without the need to access the computer system to verify event information. The VAMs further include signal attenuating mechanisms to facilitate use of “smart keys.”

Systems and methods for providing secure locks having redundant access channels are disclosed. In some embodiments of the invention, the smart lock has a hardware processor, a power source, a cylinder, a button that forms a rose knob, and a rose protector. The rose knob and rose protector protect and conceal the hardware processor, the power source, and the cylinder. The rose protector forms an annular groove that slidably interlocks with the rose knob. The rose knob has a plurality of redundant access channels for receiving authentication information. The redundant access channels may include a biometric scanner for receiving biometric information, a passcode keypad for entering a token, or a wireless transceiver for receiving a token from a mobile device and transmitting a response to the mobile device. When the user cannot open the lock through the first redundant access channel, the smart lock is configured to allow access through a second access channel.

A communication device (201) receives internal electric waves (302) emitted toward inside a vehicle (100) by an internal communicator (102) mounted in the vehicle (100), and receives external electric waves (303) emitted toward outside the vehicle (100) by an external communicator (103) mounted in the vehicle (100). The communication device (201) determines whether the communication device (201) is inside the vehicle (100) or outside the vehicle (100), from a reception intensity of the received internal electric waves (302) and from a reception intensity of the received external electric waves (303).

The present invention relates to a security-reinforced door lock, the security of which is reinforced, and a gate security management system using the same door lock, wherein: a double-unlock function using a security code stored in a user portable terminal, and a password input by a user's keystrokes may be provided so as to enhance user convenience; after a user enters or exits using a security code, the door lock itself may update the security code and the password together, generate multiple different passwords, and restrict the reuse of a single-used password or permit the reuse thereof only within a predetermined time, so as to allow the entry or exit of people who do not own a terminal in which a security code is stored, and prevent the leakage of the password; and multiple-visitor management for a door lock installed at a facility as well as a door lock for a single-woman household can be facilitated, and high security can be provided.
