A monitoring system includes at least one fixed location monitoring station, a remote central station and a communications link interconnecting the monitoring station with the remote central station. The monitoring station includes a processor coupled to an input device for retrieving subject identification definition data and subject location definition data. The processor also retrieves physiological parameter sampling data from the subject and determines whether the physiological parameter sampling data lies within boundary limits of the identification definition data and also determines whether the location of the monitoring station lies within boundary limits of the location definition data. In the event the sampling data and the fixed location are within boundary limits, the processor may actuate an access control to permit the subject to enter or exit a controlled premises. Transaction logs including out of boundary conditions as well as in boundary conditions and the location of the monitoring station are transmitted to a remote central station.
A monitoring system, the system comprising at least one monitoring station at a location, the monitoring station including a processor, a memory associated with the processor, monitoring station location data residing in the memory, the processor retrieving physiological parameter identification definition data and subject location definition data of a subject, the processor being coupled to an input device for retrieving subject physiological parameter sampling data, the processor determining whether the physiological parameter sampling data lies within boundary limits of the physiological parameter identification definition data and recording an out of boundary condition, the processor determining whether the stored monitoring station location data lies within boundary limits of the subject location definition data and recording an out of boundary condition.
A method of restricting access to equipment only to authorized subjects, the method comprising the steps of:
An access control system comprising at least one station, the station including a processor, an access control operatively connected to the processor, a memory associated with the processor, station location data, authorized subject physiological parameter identification definition data and authorized subject location definition data being stored in the memory, the processor being coupled to an input device for retrieving subject physiological parameter sampling data, the processor determining whether the physiological parameter sampling data lies within boundary limits of the physiological parameter identification definition data, the processor actuating the access control when the monitored subject physiological parameter sampling data is within the boundary limits of the monitored subject physiological parameter identification definition data and the station location data is within the boundary limits of the authorized subject location definition data.
