Abstract
Systems and methods for monitoring and actuating a vehicle gate are provided by certain embodiments of the invention. Data associated with a vehicle at the gate is collected and at least of the portion of the collected data is analyzed to identify one or more exceptions. A determination is made as to whether at least one exception is identified in the collected data, and the gate is actuated based at least in part on the determination.
Claims20
A gate monitoring and actuating system, comprising:
- a gate actuator operable to open a gate;
- a communicator operable to collect data associated with a vehicle at the gate;
- and
- a processing station operable (i) to receive the collected data from the communicator, (ii) to analyze at least a portion of the collected data to identify one or more exceptions, (iii) to determine whether at least one exception is identified, and (iv) to communicate a signal to the gate actuator based at least in part on the determination.
A method for monitoring and actuating a vehicle gate, the method comprising:
- electronically collecting data associated with a vehicle at the vehicle gate;
- analyzing at least a portion of the collected data to identify one or more exceptions;
- determining whether at least one exception is identified in the collected data;
- and
- opening the vehicle gate based at least in part on the determination of whether at least one exception is identified.
A vehicle gate monitoring and actuating system, comprising:
- one or more data collection devices operable to collect data associated with a vehicle at a vehicle gate;
- and
- a processor operable to identify one or more exceptions by analyzing at least a portion of the collected data, to determine whether at least one exception is identified, and to control the actuation of the gate based at least in part on the determination.
