Abstract
Methods, devices, and systems are provided for invisibly indicating duress via a wearable device. In response to determining a duress condition associated with a user exists, a duress signal is provided to components of the access control system. The duress signal can identify a user associated with the duress, a duress type, and even include a location associated with the duress condition. An alert of the duress condition can be distributed to one or more devices in the access control system. These devices may be associated with users of the system and the alert may be configured to silently inform the users of the duress condition.
