Methods and systems for autonomous and semi-autonomous vehicle control, routing, and automatic feature adjustment are disclosed. Sensors associated with autonomous operation features may be utilized to search an area for missing persons, stolen vehicles, or similar persons or items of interest. Sensor data associated with the features may be automatically collected and analyzed to passively search for missing persons or vehicles without vehicle operator involvement. Search criteria may be determined by a remote server and communicated to a plurality of vehicles within a search area. In response to which, sensor data may be collected and analyzed by the vehicles. When sensor data generated by a vehicle matches the search criteria, the vehicle may communicate the information to the remote server.

A modular mobility base for a modular autonomous bot apparatus transporting an item being shipped including a mobile base platform, a component alignment interface, a mobility controller, a propulsion and steering system, and sensors. The component alignment interface provides an alignment channel into which another modular component can be placed and secured on the platform. The mobility controller generates propulsion control signals for controlling speed of the modular mobility base and steering control signals for navigation of the modular mobility base. The propulsion system is connected to the platform and responsive to the propulsion control signal. The steering system is connected to the mobile base platform and is responsive to the steering control signal to cause changes to directional movement of the modular mobility base. The sensors are disposed on the platform provide feedback sensor data to the mobility controller about a condition of the modular mobility base.

There is disclosed a door handle having a vein authentication function including a housing provided in a door; a sensor provided in the housing for sensing a user's hand touching the housing or located in a preset region; a controller receiving a measured value from the sensor part; and an authentication part operating based on a control signal of the controller, photographing the user's hand and transmitting the photograph of the user's hand to the controller, wherein the authentication part has a photographing angle that is variable based on a position of the user's hand.

Exemplary embodiments of this disclosure provide a living body detection method and apparatus, an electronic device, a storage medium, and a payment system, a video surveillance system, and an access system to which the living body detection method is applied, and generally belong to the field of biometric recognition technologies. The living body detection method can include obtaining an image of a to-be-detected object performing key point detection on a biometric feature corresponding to the to-be-detected object in the image, and constructing a constraint box in the image according to detected key points. Further, the method can include capturing a shape change of the constraint box constructed in the image, and determining the to-be-detected object as a prosthesis in response to capturing an abnormal deformation of the constraint box or detecting no key points.

An electronic lock includes an interior subassembly including a manual turnpiece, a control circuit, and a motor actuatable by the control circuit, and an exterior subassembly including a facial authentication circuit operatively connected to the control circuit. The electronic lock includes a latch operatively connected to the interior subassembly, the latch being engageable by the manual turnpiece or the motor to move the electronic lock between a locked state and an unlocked state. The facial authentication circuit includes at least one camera and is configured to generate an authentication signal to the control circuit, and wherein, at least in part in response to the authentication signal, the control circuit is configured to actuate the motor to move the electronic lock between the locked state and the unlocked state.

A system and method for providing multi-factor authentication for access through a door, but without the user having to repeat a physical act of providing authentication every time that the door is opened, wherein the first time through the door, multi-factor authentication is provided to the access control system, and wherein each subsequent access through the door, multi-factor authentication is performed automatically and without intervention of the user as long as the user has a wearable device providing at least one factor of the multi-factor authentication, and the user has not removed the wearable device since the multi-factor authentication was last provided to the access control system.

A person authentication system is provided. The person authentication system includes one or more image capture devices. The person authentication system includes a computing system. The computing system includes one or more computing devices. The computing system is configured to obtain data indicative of a unique identifier associated with an earpiece worn by a person. The computing system is configured to obtain image data of an ear of the person via the one or more image capture devices. The computing system is configured to authenticate an identity of the person based, at least in part, on the image data and the data indicative of the unique identifier.

Cannabis, much like medications, requires secure containment. It is particularly important to prevent access to Cannabis to children, elderly, or others for whom the Cannabis is not prescribed, designated, or legally permitted. Provided herein are medication tracking and securement devices, systems, platforms, and methods configured to be used with or in place of commercial standard medicine bottles. The wireless tracking and communications elements of the present disclosure are configured to prevent medication theft, overdosing, medication loss, and prescription noncompliance.

Aspects of the invention provide, in some aspects, a method of face recognition that includes receiving plural frames of a video stream imaging a candidate individual, e.g., in the field of view of a camera, and generating for each of those frames a score of the image and/or of the candidate therein. This can include, for example, a score (or count) indicative of the number of individuals present in the frame, a pose of the candidate individual (e.g., face-on or otherwise), blur in the image, and so forth. The method further includes selecting, based on the respective scores of the frames, a subset of the frames for matching by a face recognizer against a set of one or more images of designated individuals. That set may be of individuals approved for access, individuals to be prevented for access, or otherwise. An output is generated, according to the method, based on such matching by the face recognizer.

This document discloses a storage device for theft-proof storage of valuable articles, comprising a cabinet, having at least one drawer space, a safe drawer, which is received in the drawer space, a safe housing, comprising side walls and a top wall connecting the side walls, wherein the safe drawer is slidably connected to the safe housing and wherein the safe housing is mounted to the cabinet in the drawer space, a locking member, which is movably connected to the safe drawer or to the safe housing, an actuator, which is operatively connected to the locking member, for controlling a movement of the locking member, and a controller, which is operatively connected to the actuator, and which is configured to control the actuator. The controller is configured for receiving a control signal, based on which the controller is configured to control the actuator. The locking member is movable between a first position, in which the locking member locks safe drawer relative to the cabinet, and a second position, wherein the safe drawer is unlocked relative to the cabinet.
