Security identification system and method

An identification system for identifying a person entering a secured area, comprising:

• a controller,
• a first identification station having a reference imager generating a reference image and a reference weight measuring device generating reference weight of the person entering the secured area each being electronically communicating with said controller for signaling said controller said reference image and said reference weight thereby generating a reference data point associated with said first identification station;
• a second identification station spaced from said first identification station having a secondary reference imager generating a secondary image and a secondary weight measuring device generating a secondary weight of said person passing through said secured area each being electronically communicating with said controller for signaling said controller said secondary image and said secondary weight thereby generating a secondary data point associated with said second identification station, and
• said controller indicating an alarm situation if said reference data point is different than said secondary data point.

A method of identifying discrepancies between visual image and weight of a person passing through a security system, said method comprising the steps of:

• connecting a controller to an identification device of the security system,
• generating a fist plurality of pixels of the person and signaling the controller a location of the first plurality of pixels as the person passes through the identification device at a first location;
• measuring weight of the passenger to signal the controller the value of the weight measured as the first plurality of pixels are generated;
• generating a second plurality of pixels of the person and signaling the controller a location of the second plurality of pixels as the person passes through the identification device at a second location;
• measuring weight of the passenger at the second location to signal the controller the value of the weight measured as the second plurality of pixels is generated;
• and
• comparing the first plurality of pixels, the second plurality of pixels and the value of the weight to determine a correlation and generate a signal in response to discrepancies identified by the controller between the first plurality of pixels and the second plurality of pixels or the value of the weight taken at the first and the second locations.
