Methods and system for distributed cameras and demographics analysis are disclosed. In one embodiment, the enterprise security system includes a tracking system for tracking individuals within the enterprise, surveillance cameras that capture image data including the individuals within the enterprise, a physical classifier module for determining physical characteristics of the individuals in the image data, and a security integration system for determining whether the tracked individuals match the physical characteristics.

Methods and system for distributed cameras and demographics analysis

Methods and systems for controlling access to enterprise resources based on tracking are disclosed. In one implementation, an enterprise security system includes one or more tracking systems, an information technology (IT) system, and a security integration system (SIS). The one or more tracking systems track movement of individuals throughout the enterprise. The SIS blocks access to the computer resources based on the tracked movement of the individuals within the enterprise.

Methods and system for controlling access to enterprise resources based on tracking

Methods and system for monitoring and assessing employee moods are disclosed. A proposed enterprise employee monitoring system includes surveillance cameras, a facial recognition module, an emotional analyzer module, and an employee database. The surveillance cameras capture image data including employee individuals within the enterprise. The facial recognition module identifies the individuals in the image data, and the emotional analyzer module determines an emotional state of the individuals based upon the image data. The employee database stores employee information and the emotional state information from the emotional analyzer module, based upon the identification performed by the facial recognition module.

Methods and system for monitoring and assessing employee moods

A frictionless access control system and method embodying satellite cameras for facial recognition are disclosed. The cameras capture image data of individuals at an access point such as a door. Preferably, two or more cameras are placed on opposite sides of the access point to increase the likelihood that the individuals are captured in the image data. A facial cropper module extracts facial patches from the image data, and a facial signature module computes facial signatures from the facial patches. A facial recognition module receives the computed facial signatures from the facial signature module, matches the computed facial signatures to stored facial signatures, and sends user identity information of individuals corresponding to the stored facial signatures to the facial signature module when the computed facial signatures match the stored facial signatures.

An access control system (ACS) for a building includes an access reader, a camera, and an access controller. The access reader is configured to read an access credential provided by a person at an access point and generate ACS data including the access credential. The camera is configured to capture facial recognition system (FRS) data including an image of the person at the access point. The access controller is configured to determine whether the access credential is valid based on the ACS data, determine whether the person is recognized based on the FRS data, grant or deny access to the person through the access point based on whether the access credential is valid and whether the person is recognized, and generate and store one or more of a plurality of access events. Each of the access events corresponds to a different combination of whether the access credential is valid and whether the person is recognized.

Frictionless access control system for a building

A building management system includes an entity database that stores a plurality of interconnected smart entities. The smart entities include object entities representing a plurality of people or physical devices and data entities representing data associated with the people or physical devices. The smart entities are interconnected by relational objects indicating relationships between the object entities and the data entities. Each of the object entities includes a plurality of stored identity attributes. An identity management service is configured to receive a first identity attribute from a first device within a building, receive a second identity attribute from a second device within the building, compare the first and second identity attributes to the stored identity attributes of an object entity of the plurality of interconnected smart entities, and allow access to at least one of a building space, a device of building equipment, or a computer system.

Building management system with identity management and assurance services

A building management system includes an entity database and an identity management service. The entity database stores a plurality of interconnected smart entities. The smart entities include object entities representing a plurality of people or physical devices and data entities representing data associated with the people or physical devices. The smart entities are interconnected by relational objects indicating relationships between the object entities and the data entities. Each of the object entities includes a plurality of stored identity attributes. The identity management service is configured to receive a first identity attribute from a first device within a building, receive a second identity attribute from a second device within the building, compare the first and second identity attributes to the stored identity attributes of an object entity of the plurality of interconnected smart entities, and allow access to at least one of a building space, a device of building equipment, or a computer system in response to the first and second identity attributes matching the stored identity attributes of the object entity.
