20220343127 · 2022-10-27 · ·

A system for sensing a physical property of a medium inside a conduit includes a radio frequency identification (RFID) reader arranged to transmit electromagnetic signals in at least one radio frequency. An RFID tag receives the least one radio frequency and exchanges the received radio frequency to electrical energy powering the RFID tag. An included sensor electrically connected to the RFID tag receives the electrical energy from the RFID tag and powers the sensor to obtain measurement data of at least one physical property of the medium and transmit the measurement data to the RFID tag. The RFID tag transmits the measurement data to the RFID reader using the at least one radio frequency.

TELECOMMUNICATION CALL MANAGEMENT AND MONITORING SYSTEM WITH VOICEPRINT VERIFICATION
20230127488 · 2023-04-27 · ·

Disclosed is a secure telephone call management system for authenticating users of a telephone system in an institutional facility. Authentication of the users is accomplished by using a personal identification number, preferably in conjunction with speaker independent voice recognition and speaker dependent voice identification. When a user first enters the system, the user speaks his or her name which is used as a sample voice print. During each subsequent use of the system, the user is required to speak his or her name. Voice identification software is used to verify that the provided speech matches the sample voice print. The secure system includes accounting software to limit access based on funds in a user's account or other related limitations. Management software implements widespread or local changes to the system and can modify or set any number of user account parameters.

Storage cabinet

A storage cabinet according to an embodiment stores a plurality of items, each item including a first tag attached thereto. The first tag records item information. The storage cabinet includes: a first reader for reading item information recorded in first tags of items stored in a housing; and a second reader for reading information relating to an item condition of an item to be retrieved from the storage cabinet, when an item to which a second tag is attached is made proximate from the outside to a predetermined area on the housing. The second tag records the information relating to the item condition item information that meets the item condition related to the information read by the second reader, is identified among the item information read by the first reader.
