A smart thermostat hub and a management platform for controlling and securing smart devices in a multi-family residential property are disclosed. Smart thermostat hubs may bi-directionally communicate with the management platform using a LoRaWAN communication link and communicate with smart devices present within an apartment of the multi-family residential property via a non-LoRaWAN communication link. Smart thermostat hub may provide a gateway or bridge between the management platform and an offline door lock, thereby enabling access credentials for an offline door lock to be disabled from the management platform, and may serve to facilitate remote configuration of other smart devices, such as thermostats and smart light fixtures, for example.

Systems and techniques for a physical access control systems with localization-based intent detection are described herein. In an example, an access control system may regulate access to an asset. The access control system is adapted to establish a first connection with a key-device. The access control system may be further adapted to receive a credential for a user over the first connection. The access control system may be further adapted to establish a second connection with the key-device. The access control system may be further adapted to determine an intent of the user to access the asset. The access control system may use location data derived from the second connection to determine the intent of the user. The access control system may be further adapted to provide the credential to an access controller, based on identifying an intent of the user to access the asset.

A locking apparatus according to an embodiment includes an approach detector, a signal transmitter, a measurer, and a controller. The approach detector detects an approach of a user carrying a terminal. The signal transmitter transmits a key authentication signal for authenticating a pre-shared digital key to the terminal using first short-range wireless communication when the approach of the user is detected. The measurer connects a session by generating a security channel with the terminal using second short-range wireless communication and measuring at least one of a distance to and an angle with respect to the terminal when the digital key is authenticated through the key authentication signal. The controller determines whether or not to unlock an access facility in accordance with at least one of the distance to and the angle with respect to the terminal.

Systems and techniques for a physical access control systems with localization-based intent detection are described herein. In an example, an access control system may regulate access to an asset. The access control system is adapted to receive a credential for the asset from a key device associated with a user using a first wireless connection. The access control system may be further adapted to store the credential in a cache of memory. The access control system may be further adapted to establish a second wireless connection with the key device. The access control system may be further adapted to request a validation of the credential from an authorization service in response to establishing the second wireless connection with the key device. The access control system may receive a validation token from the authorization service. The access control system may be further adapted to store the validation token in the cache.

Systems and methods for access control systems includes first and second access facilities, and first and second readers. The first reader is configured to control access through the first access facility, receive a credential using a first communication protocol from a device that stores the credential, and establish a secret with the device using the credential. The second reader is configured to control access through the second access facility. The first reader is configured to provide the secret to the second reader, and the second device is further configured to perform ranging using the secret and a second communication protocol different than the first communication protocol to identify intent information. Access through one of the first facility or the second facility is coordinated using the intent information.

The access control system may be further adapted to determine the user intends to access the asset based on a data set generated derived from the second wireless connection. The access control system may be further adapted to use a trained machine learning model to determine the intent of the user to access the asset. The access control system may be further adapted to transmit a command to grant access to the asset.
