An apparatus and method for switching premises in a convenient way. A method includes transmitting a request to a server for switching a first premises with a second premises. Further, the first premises being accessed using an access card on a first access terminal associated with the first premises. The method further includes receiving access credentials for the second premises from the server in response to the request. The method also includes encoding the access card with the access credentials to access a second access terminal associated with the second premises for permitting entry inside the second premises.

Method and an apparatus for switching premises

Systems and methods for control of a locking system are disclosed. In some embodiments, a system comprises one or more sensors configured to generate output signals indicating one or more movement information of a subject. The system comprises at least one processor operatively connected with the one or more sensors, and memory storing instructions executable by the at least one processor, the instructions when executed cause the system to determine, using the output signals from the one or more sensors, one or more movement parameters of the subject; and send, based on the determined movement parameters of the subject, an instruction to the locking system to adjust an open delay time for the locking system, the open delay time being time the locking system remains open.

A system, for determination of required environmental conditions for transport and storage of goods, that includes one or more boxes to be placed in a vehicle. Each box has an indicator code, on the exterior surface of the box, that includes information related to environmental conditions required to be maintained. A scanning device associated with the vehicle and configured to read said indicator code from each box. A control circuitry is operationally connected to the scanning device The control circuitry is configured to compute the readings of the indicator codes from each box to determine the required environmental conditions to be maintained inside the vehicle.

Aspects of the invention are directed towards a system and a method for providing access of an accessing device to a user. One or more embodiments of the invention describe the method comprising steps of detecting a charged status of a battery of a user device and prompting a user of the user device to define credentials when the charged status of the battery reaches below a pre-determined threshold. One or more embodiments of the invention further describe steps of receiving the defined credentials from the user to access an accessing device and transmitting the defined credentials to a server for providing access of the accessing device to the user.

Method and system for providing access of an accessing device to a user

Aspects of the invention are directed towards systems and methods for changing the premises in a building such as hotel or the like. A user sends to a request from a user device to a server for switching a first premises with the second premises. An access card is able to access the first premises. Based on the request, the server determines the second premises and generates access credentials for the second premises. The access credentials are transmitted to a first access terminal associated with the first premises and the access card is encoded with the access credentials to access the second premises and permitting entry inside the second premises.

A method of detecting an object in a hallway proximate a door including: receiving a status of an access control operably connected to a door of a room, the status indicating that the door has been opened; determining that an object is located in a hallway proximate the door; determining whether the door was opened from inside of the room or from outside of the room using a credential to actuate the access control; determining who opened the door; and generating an alert in response to who opened the door and whether the door was opened from inside of the room or from outside of the room using a credential to actuate the access control.

Method for activating an alert when an object is left proximate a room entryway

A method of monitoring access requests to one or more access controls of an access control system is provided. The method comprising: receiving a first access request from a key card to a first access control, the key card being encoded with a credential and an access code; determining that the credential is not authorized to access the first access control; checking a first value of the access code; and rewriting the first value of the access code to a second value of the access code if the first value of the access code does not equal a desired value of failed access request attempts.

Access key card that cancels automatically for safety and security

Disclosed is a method for accommodating parking requirements of a vehicle operator parking a vehicle at a parking spot, including: receiving, in a parking block assembly disposed in an egress area of a parking spot of a parking lot, authorized instructions from a mobile device of the vehicle operator to position a parking block in lowered position, positioning the parking block of the a parking block assembly in the lowered position, and wherein the authorized instructions are provided to the mobile device in advance and enable control of the parking block assembly only during a duration of a stay at the parking spot for the vehicle.

A method of detecting when a mobile device is left in a room is provided. The method comprising: receiving a status of an access control operably connected to a door of a room; collecting positional data of a mobile device; determining a location of the mobile device relative to the room; and activating an alarm in response to the location determined.

Method and apparatus for detecting when a mobile device is left in a room

A method of detecting an emergency situation in a room of a hotel is provided. The method comprising: monitoring an access control operably connect to a door of a room; determining that the access control has not been engaged; determining that activity has not been detected in the room for a selected time period; and activating an alarm.

Method and apparatus for detecting an emergency situation in a room

A method of detecting when a personal item is left in a safe is provided. The method comprising: receiving a first status of a safe in a room, the first status indicating that the safe has been locked; retrieving a period of stay for an individual assigned to the room, the period of stay includes a checkout time; and creating a reminder in a schedule system to activate an alarm within a selected time period of the checkout time, the reminder indicating that the safe is locked.
