JPH09270011A - Intruder detector in facility such as condominium - Google Patents

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To automatically detect an intruder by the use of a radio frequency identification (RFID) system. SOLUTION: Each resident in a condominium carries a resident tag 1 and a visitor informs of his (or her) visit through an interphone 3 and is allowed to carry a tag 1 issued from a tag issuing machine 4 internally operated by the resident. When the existence of a resident or a visitor near an automatic door 2 is confirmed by a host computer through a recognition device 5 and an RFID reader 6, the door 2 is opened. In the condominium, whether a person moving the inside is a resident or a visitor is recognized by the host computer through a recognition device 5 and an FRID reader 6 arranged on a passage or the like. When the device 5 recognizes the existence of a person but the RFID reader 6 can not read out ID data, the person is recognized as an intruder and residents, a guardman, etc., are informed of the existence of the person.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to safety management in a facility such as a condominium, and more particularly to a device for detecting an intruder.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art At the entrance of a condominium where safety management is fully implemented, only residents can open the automatic door with an IC card or a numeric keypad. In such an apartment, the residents can unlock the automatic door from the room when a visitor arrives.

Recently, in addition to IC cards, numeric keys, etc., IDs (Identi
RFID (Radio Frequency-) that can detect fication
Identification) is being adopted. The RFID is also called a data carrier system and is capable of contactlessly transmitting and receiving ID data having human information by high frequency or microwave. A room entrance / exit management apparatus using an RFID system has also been proposed (see Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2-183068).

[0004]

In the conventional method using an IC card or a numeric keypad, an uninvited customer may enter while the automatic door is unlocked. And, an intruder who once entered the building cannot be detected. This is because even if a person's recognition means such as a camera is installed in the passage in the facility, it is impossible to distinguish the visitor from the intruder.

Similarly, even if many IC card readers (readers) are installed, it cannot be detected unless a person reads the card. An entrance / exit management apparatus using an RFID system does not react to an intruder who does not have an RFID tag, and therefore cannot detect an intruder once intruded. Even if several RFID readers are installed, an intruder cannot be detected by itself.

It is conceivable to install a plurality of automatic doors, but in a condominium, which is a place of daily life, the appearance is impaired and it becomes inconvenient. All of these problems can be solved by having security guards permanently stationed, including at night, but there are problems such as labor costs and annoyance to visitors. Therefore,
It is an object of the present invention to provide a device that can detect an intruder unattended by using an RFID system.

[0007]

The intruder detection device of the present invention is arranged at an entrance of a facility equipped with an automatic door and at least one place in the facility, and recognizes the presence of a person by a camera or a sensor. A device, a collation information reading device that is arranged near each recognition device in combination with the recognition device, and performs an operation of reading information of a collation medium that should be carried by a person recognized by the recognition device, and an operation unit. It is installed inside, and the verification media outlet is installed outside the entrance of the facility,
A collation medium issuing machine that issues a collation medium for visitors from the collation medium take-out port by an operation from the operation unit and a collation information reading device should be carried by the person only when the recognition device recognizes the presence of the person. The operation of reading the information of the verification medium, the operation of opening the automatic door when the verification information reader installed at the entrance of the facility reads the verification information for the resident or the visitor of the facility, and the verification installed in the facility When the information reading device performs the operation of reading the information of the collation medium, if the information of the collation medium cannot be read, the person is regarded as an intruder and at least an operation of performing a predetermined process is performed. And a control device. It is preferable that the information processing / control device further includes a program for preventing the collation information of the collation medium for the visitor who has not been returned from being regarded as the visitor.

Specifically, an example of the matching medium is an RFID tag, an example of the matching information reading device is an RFID reader, and an example of the information processing / control device is a host computer. Hereinafter, a specific example will be described.

[0009] A person recognition device using a camera or various sensors and an RFID reader are installed at a plurality of places such as a corridor and stairs other than the entrance of a facility such as a condominium, and only when the person is recognized Read the ID of the RFID tag. As a result, a person who does not carry the RFID tag can be detected, so that an intruder can be detected unattended. From that information, the number and location of intruders can be notified to residents and security guards in real time. Residents can take care not to leave their room carelessly, and guards can call on them even if they are not resident.

In the case of a person carrying an RFID tag,
It is easy to identify a resident or a visitor from the ID. The visitor also needs to have an RFID tag, but at the entrance the visitor tells the visitor with an intercom or numeric keypad, and the resident operates the operation unit from inside the facility to operate the RFI.
The D tag issuing machine issues RFID tags for visitors for the number of people. Each visitor receives the RFID tag from the RFID tag issuing machine and carries it with them one by one.

[0011] As a measure against the case where the visitor takes the RFID tag home with him when he leaves the facility, he or she can give an instruction by voice or the like at the exit and have it returned to the collection box. By returning the RFID tag for the visitor at the exit, the RFID tag for the visitor can be reused.

[0012] Even if the customer still brings back the RFID tag, the intruder illegally obtains and uses the RFID tag brought back, or the visitor who brought the RFID tag back does not want the resident to enter the room again. Even if the customer is a visitor, there is a problem that a person who has the RFID tag can freely enter the room. Therefore, if the visitor does not return the RFID tag when leaving the condominium, the host computer is provided with a program that prevents the visitor from revisiting the RFID tag ID. At the entrance, the visitor again informs the resident of the visit using an intercom or numeric keypad, and the resident operates to receive the RFID tag for the visitor from the issuing machine.
