Abstract
Example implementations include a method, apparatus, and computer-readable medium comprising determining, by a processor of a control panel, that a security event has happened, wherein the security event is associated with a user identification or authentication; capturing one or more still images or videos by at least one camera in the control panel subsequent and in response to determining that the security event has happened; and using the one or more still images or videos to perform facial recognition.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- detecting, by one or more processors of a control panel, one or more short range communication devices being in range of the control panel;
- capturing one or more still images or videos by at least one camera in the control panel subsequent and in response to detecting the one or more short range communication devices in range of the control panel;
- using the one or more still images or videos to perform facial recognition;
- and
- determining, based on the facial recognition, whether one or more individuals associated with the one or more short range communication devices are authorized to be present at a premises.
An apparatus comprising a control panel, the control panel including:
- one or more memories;
- and
- one or more processors communicatively coupled with the one or more memories and configured to:
- detect, by the one or more processors of the control panel, one or more short range communication devices being in range of the control panel;
- capture one or more still images or videos by at least one camera in the control panel subsequent and in response to detecting the one or more short range communication devices in range of the control panel;
- use the one or more still images or videos to perform facial recognition;
- and
- determine, based on the facial recognition, whether one or more individuals associated with the one or more short range communication devices are authorized to be present at a premises.
One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing instructions executable by one or more processors of a control panel, wherein the instructions, when executed, cause the one or more processors to:
- detect, by the one or more processors of the control panel, one or more short range communication devices being in range of the control panel;
- capture one or more still images or videos by at least one camera in the control panel subsequent and in response to detecting the one or more short range communication devices in range of;
- use the one or more still images or videos to perform facial recognition;
- and
- determine, based on the facial recognition, whether one or more individuals associated with the one or more short range communication devices are authorized to be present at a premises.
