Abstract

A smart entry point spatial security system is intended for securing facility and other entrances in general. The system includes a device associated to an entry point. The device can be coupled externally to the entry point or natively as built-in to the entry point structure or any entry point subcomponents, such as knobs and locks. A host device with a software application monitors or observes the entry point sensor data via wired or wireless link such as Bluetooth. The sensor includes a software algorithm that is adapted to trigger safety alarms upon unauthorized usage of the entry point or as means of regulating entrance of users to a dedicated general space. The sensor data is stored locally on a host computer and a logging system is available on cloud computing device. The stored data will be used in further optimizing spatial data.

Dependent claims

An entry point security system comprising:

a multi-axis position sensor apparatus comprising:
a sensor body adapted to be affixed to an entry point blocking structure;
a sensor power supply contained within the sensor body;
a multi-axis motion detector contained within the sensor body and operatively connected to the sensor power supply;
a sensor communications interface operatively connected to the sensor power supply and contained within the sensor body;
and
a sensor processor operatively connected to the motion detector, the sensor communications interface, and the sensor power supply and contained within the sensor body, the processor being configured to detect motions of the sensor body from input received from the motion detector and to transmit information regarding the motions of the sensor body using the sensor communications interface;
and
a monitoring device at least intermittently communicatively coupled to the multi-axis position sensor apparatus, comprising:
a monitor power supply;
a monitor communications interface operatively connected to the monitor power supply and at least intermittently communicatively coupled with the sensor communications interface;
a monitor processor operatively connected to the monitor power supply and the monitor communications interface and adapted to receive and process the information regarding the motions of the sensor body to generate notifications of entry status changes.

A method for providing entry point security comprising:

associating a multi-axis position sensor apparatus to an entry point blocking structure, the position sensor apparatus comprising a multi-axis motion detector;
communicatively coupling a monitoring device to the multi-axis position sensor apparatus;
detecting, at the multi-axis position sensor using the multi-axis motion detector, a movement of the entry point blocking structure;
receiving, at the monitoring device, a transmission of information from the multi-axis position sensor indicative of the movement of the entry point blocking structure;
processing the information from the multi-axis position sensor to determine a status of the entry point blocking structure;
and
generating a notification of the status of the entry point blocking structure.
