11367343 · 2022-06-21 · ·

Methods and systems relating to administration of access credentials for electronic access control are disclosed. Web resources are provided for rendering a webpage including an access credential. A server device receives an access instruction authorizing a user to access an electronic lock associated with the access credential. A client device of the user transmits a first request for the access credential. The first request may be generated by a browser application of the client device. The server device provides the web resources and a browser cookie to the client device. Responsive to subsequent requests for the access credential, the server device determines whether the client device is authorized to receive the access credential based on the client device providing the browser cookie. When the server device determines that a subsequent request authorizes the client device to receive the access credential, the web resources are provided to the browser application.

Systems and methods for rule-driven management of sensor data across geographic areas and derived actions

The present disclosure relates to an information gathering method. The information gathering method includes identifying a location of a package, the location associated with one or more location-based restrictions on collecting data. The information gathering method also includes restricting access to sensor-collectable data associated with the package in accordance with the one or more location-based restrictions.

Door handle with means for reducing ultra-high-frequency communication radiation

A handle for a motor vehicle opening, equipped with an ultra-high-frequency antenna having a device for transmitting and receiving a signal at a predetermined wavelength, with a device for detecting the approach of and/or contact by a user, with a printed circuit board and with at least one connecting cable intended for electrically connecting the printed circuit board to an electronic control unit. The at least one connecting cable has a section either projecting from the remainder of the at least one connecting cable or surrounded by an electromagnetically insulating coating coaxial with the at least one connecting cable, a length of the projecting section or a length of the coaxial coating being equal to one quarter of said predetermined wavelength with a tolerance of +/−20%.

Two-factor authentication system
11321981 · 2022-05-03 · ·

A physical access control (PAC) system configured to perform a two-factor authentication prior to granting access to a secure area. The PAC system includes an access point device configured to perform facial recognition on a person proximate to the access point device, and perform wireless handshake with a mobile device associated with the person prior to granting or denying entry to the secure area.

Fiber optic cassette system with reversible cassettes
11187864 · 2021-11-30 · ·

A reversible fiber optic cassette for mounting with other like cassettes in a rack comprising a cassette receiving tray, the tray comprising a plurality of cassette engaging features on an upper surface is disclosed. The cassette comprises N duplex pairs of optic fiber receptacles arranged along a front thereof, a multifiber receptacle on a back thereof and 2*N optic fiber segments each between a respective one of the optic fiber receptacles and the multifiber receptacle, N discrete port identifiers on a first surface thereof and N discrete port identifiers on a second surface opposite the first surface. The first set of N identifiers is the same as the second set of N identifiers and for M between 1 to N, an M.sup.th port identifier of the first set and an (N-M+1).sup.th port identifier of the second set is adjacent an M.sup.th one of the duplex pairs of optic fiber receptacles.

Smart lock box

A smart lock box system is described. One implementation of the lock box system includes a locking mechanism configured to securely hold a cover over a compartment. The lock box system includes a receiver capable of receiving signals from a user device. The lock box system also includes a processor configured to identify an access message in a received signal, a service to verify that the access message was provided by an authorized party, and cause the locking mechanism to be released in response to verifying that the access message was provided by the authorized party. The open/close events are recorded in a distributed ledger to document which user's device was used to access a given property at a given time. Furthermore, the smart lock box system utilizes a push notification service, based on user device's GPS, to inform owners when to depart/return to the property.

Adaptive BLE and UWB based connection rate control for mobile access devices of vehicular passive access systems

A mobile access device includes a transceiver and a control module. The transceiver transmits and receives ultra-wideband signals including a first challenge signal. The control module: transmits via the transceiver the first challenge signal to a vehicle, where the first challenge signal is associated with a passive entry or a passive start operation of the vehicle, based on the first challenge signal, receive a response signal from the vehicle, determine a distance between the mobile access device and the vehicle based on the response signal, determine a wait period based on the distance, wait a minimum period, where the minimum period is a minimum of (i) the wait period and (ii) an advertisement period or a predetermined ranging period, and subsequent to waiting the minimum period, transmit a second challenge signal to the vehicle to update the distance between the mobile access device and the vehicle.
