It is provided a method for enabling distribution of a mobile key for obtaining access to a physical space. The method is performed in a mobile key agent and comprises the steps of: receiving a booking signal from a booking agent, the booking signal being associated with a booking of physical space, wherein the booking signal comprises a property identifier, an allocation time, and a name of the user; obtaining a system booking reference associated with the booking of physical space; providing the system booking reference to the booking agent; establishing contact with the mobile key repository, yielding an identifier of the mobile key repository; receiving a space allocation message comprising an identifier of a physical space and the system booking reference; and transmitting a key allocation command to an electronic access control system associated with the property, the key allocation command comprising the identifier of the mobile key repository, the identifier of the physical space and the allocation time.

A space staging method includes a reservation information acquisition step, an entry detection step, a determination step, and a staging execution step. The reservation information acquisition step is a step of acquiring reservation information about a reservation of a target space of a facility from a server. The entry detection step is a step of detecting whether a user specified by the reservation information has entered a specific space in the facility. The determination step is a step of determining a number of times of entry of the user into the specific space upon detection of entry of the user into the specific space in the entry detection step. The staging execution step is a step of causing a staging system generating a stimulus to at least one of five senses of human in the facility to execute staging processing.

Methods and systems for validating intent to actuate an electronic lock are provided, using comparative gesture processing. One method includes obtaining motion signals representative of physical motion of the mobile device detected by a motion sensor of the mobile device and at an electronic lock. The method includes performing a similarity correlation between the first motion signals and the second motion signals, and, based on the similarity correlation determining that the first motion signals and second motion signals are correlated. Based on the correlation and authentication, the wireless electronic lockset is actuated.

A wireless electromechanical lock with one or more of an internal antenna, touch activation, and/or a light communication device that acts as a user interface. In some embodiments, the lock utilizes an antenna near the exterior face of the lockset, designed inside the metal body of the lockset itself. A light communication device is provided in some embodiments to communicate information, visually, to the user via animations and dynamic displays of light. In some embodiments, the lockset includes a touch activation capability, which can be used to lock/unlock the lock and/or otherwise provide input.

A method for operating an access control comprises creating a plurality of wake-up schedules for a wireless transceiver. Each of the plurality of wake-up schedules may be configured to control how frequently the wireless transceiver wakes up to transmit or receive information. Each of the plurality of wake-up schedules for the wireless transceiver may be different from another one or the plurality of wake-up schedules for the wireless transceiver. The method may further comprise automatically switching between the plurality of wake-up schedules for the wireless transceiver such that a duration of time between wake-ups for the wireless transceiver radio is shorter during some predefined times and longer during other predefined times. The duration of time between wake-ups for the wireless transceiver may be configurable by an administrative user via an interface.

Exemplary embodiments may provide keys for unlocking access to a location, like a user room, a secure location, a door at an employee location, a trunk, a closet or other locked location or item, on a payment card. Examples of a payment card include but are not limited to a credit card, a debit card, a smart card, an employee identification card, etc. A secure token that acts as digital key may be uploaded to the payment card. The payment card may then be put in close proximity of a wireless reader at the lock. The wireless reader obtains the secure token and extracts the contents. If the contents are proper, the lock is unlocked. Otherwise, the lock remains locked.

A touchless motion sensor system for performing directional motion detection includes first and second touchless motion sensors. First and second sensing units are coupled to the first and second touchless motion sensors each having a sensing unit disable input, a sensing unit disable output, a sensing unit to sensing unit motion detected output, and motion logic. The first sensing unit disable output is coupled to the second sensing unit disable input, and the second sensing unit disable output is coupled to the first sensing unit disable input.

A health service system for caring for the health of a patient. In one example, the health service system operates to present media content in association with a telehealth consultation. The health service system generates a virtual waiting room for display on a patient device, which presents a media content presentation. After the media content presentation has concluded, the health service system facilitates the telehealth consultation between a patient and a care provider. In some configurations the health service system further includes at least one hub care facility. The hub care facility includes a locked door with a scanner that unlocks the locked door upon scanning a time sensitive door unlock code; and a locked medication locker with a scanner that unlocks the locked medication locker upon scanning a medication locker unlock code.

An access management and reporting system includes a keysafe that is located outside of a building and a communication system that is located within the building. The communication system is configured to perform, over a short-range wireless communication protocol, two-way communication with a communication module of the keysafe. The system also includes a server that is located remote from the building and the keysafe. The server is configured to perform, over a long-range communication protocol, two-way communication with the communication system located within the building, is configured to manage access to the keysafe, and is configured to handle reporting related to access of the keysafe.

A monitoring system includes a doorbell unit that includes a camera and a display and that is configured to receive a request to access the property. The monitoring system includes a monitor control unit that is configured to determine an authentication protocol for determining whether to grant the visitor access to the property. The monitor control unit generates a first image and transmits authentication data to a computing device. The monitor control unit provides the first image and instructions to output the first image on the display of the doorbell unit. The monitor control unit receives a second image captured by the camera of the doorbell unit. The monitor control unit determines whether the second image includes a representation of data that is based on processing the first image in combination with the authentication data. The monitor control unit grants or denies the visitor access to the property.
