Abstract
An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for safely and securely storing materials. A plurality of smart tiles sense traffic and generate traffic data. A network transmits the traffic data from the smart tiles. A computer determines a plurality of normal traffic patterns from the traffic data. In addition, the computer detects an abnormal traffic pattern from the traffic data. The computer activates a security response in response to the abnormal traffic pattern.
Claims19
An apparatus for security and safety, the apparatus comprising:
- a security module configured to provide a security response;
- a plurality of smart tiles configured to sense traffic and generate traffic data;
- a network in communication with the smart tiles and a computer and configured to transmit the traffic data from the smart tiles to the computer;
- and
- the computer configured to determine a plurality of normal traffic patterns from the traffic data using dimension reduction fractal-based pattern recognition, detect a prone individual from an abnormal traffic pattern outside of the plurality of normal traffic patterns from the traffic data, and activate the security response in response to the abnormal traffic pattern.
A computer program product comprising a computer useable medium having a computer readable program stored on a tangible storage device, wherein the computer readable program when executed on a computer causes the computer to:
- generate traffic data from a plurality of smart tiles configured to sense traffic;
- transmit the traffic data from the smart tiles;
- determine a plurality of normal traffic patterns from the traffic data using dimension reduction fractal-based pattern recognition;
- detect a prone individual from an abnormal traffic pattern outside of the plurality of normal traffic patterns from the traffic data;
- and
- activate a security response in response to the abnormal traffic pattern.
A system for security and safety, the system comprising:
- a storage volume;
- a security module comprising a lock disposed on the storage volume and configured to provide a security response of locking the storage volume;
- a plurality of smart tiles each comprising a strain gauge in communication with a polymer surface and configured to sense traffic and generate traffic data, the traffic data comprising data sets each with a position, a rate, and a time;
- a network in communication with the smart tiles and a computer and configured to transmit the traffic data from the smart tiles to the computer;
- and
- the computer configured to determine a plurality of normal traffic patterns from the traffic data using dimension reduction fractal-based pattern recognition, detect a prone individual from an abnormal traffic pattern outside of the plurality of normal traffic patterns from the traffic data, and activate the security response in response to the abnormal traffic pattern.
A method for deploying computer infrastructure, comprising integrating a computer readable program stored on a tangible storage device into a computing system, wherein the program in combination with the computing system is capable of:
- generating traffic data from a plurality of smart tiles configured to sense traffic, the traffic data comprising sets each with a position, a rate, a time, a weight, and an impact;
- transmitting the traffic data from the smart tiles over a wireless network;
- determining a plurality of normal traffic patterns from the traffic data using fractal-based pattern analysis;
- detecting an abnormal traffic pattern outside of the plurality of normal traffic patterns from the traffic data, wherein the traffic data comprises data sets each with a position, a rate, a time, a weight, and an impact, the abnormal traffic pattern indicates a prone individual, and the data sets comprise an impact and a weight of the prone individual;
- and
- activating a security response at a security module in response to the abnormal traffic pattern.
