Abstract
A method of using image analytics and machine learning in a lock system includes receiving data describing access actions that are performed at an access control device based at least in part on a credential. The data includes, for each access action, a description of the access action, a timestamp, and an image of a person presenting the credential. The data is analysed to identify patterns of access. Facial characteristics of the person presenting the credential are identified. The credential is associated with the facial characteristics. It is detected, based at least in part on facial recognition and the facial characteristics, that the person is proximate to the access control device. An access action is performed at the access control device based on the detecting and the patterns of access, where the facial recognition is used in place of the credential to provide authorization to perform the access action.
