Abstract
Methods, systems and computer readable media for managing access of visitors to a facility are described.
Claims18
A method comprising:
- providing an electronic invitation communication to a visitor device, the electronic invitation communication including a computer readable indicium;
- determining physical presence of the visitor device by sensing, at a computer readable indicium sensor system, the computer readable indicium presented by the visitor device;
- validating the computer readable indicium;
- when the computer readable indicium is valid, transmitting an authentication token to the visitor device;
- receiving, at a visitor input device, a user input including an authentication token;
- when the authentication token in the received user input is valid, creating a visitor account;
- providing a network connection from a computer network to the visitor device;
- causing a captive portal to be displayed on the user device;
- automatically searching for an electronically stored version of the computer readable indicium on the visitor device;
- and
- when the electronically stored version of the computer readable indicium is found on the visitor device, performing a login process from the captive portal to a policy server to login the visitor device to the computer network and grant the visitor access to the computer network.

A system comprising:
- one or more processors coupled to a nontransitory computer readable medium having stored thereon on software instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause to perform operations including:
- providing an electronic invitation communication to a visitor device, the electronic invitation communication including a computer readable indicium;
- determining physical presence of the visitor device by sensing, at a computer readable indicium sensor system, the computer readable indicium presented by the visitor device;
- validating the computer readable indicium;
- when the computer readable indicium is valid, transmitting an authentication token to the visitor device;
- receiving, at a visitor input device, a user input including an authentication token;
- when the authentication token in the received user input is valid, creating a visitor account;
- providing a network connection from a computer network to the visitor device;
- causing a captive portal to be displayed on the user device;
- automatically searching for an electronically stored version of the computer readable indicium on the visitor device;
- and
- when the electronically stored version of the computer readable indicium is found on the visitor device, performing a login process from the captive portal to a policy server to login the visitor device to the computer network and grant the visitor access to the computer network.
