Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to the technical field of access control e.g. in public and/or commercial buildings and to the monitoring of entries through portals such as doorways. More particularly the present invention relates to a configurable access control sensing device for detecting and monitoring persons entering or exiting through portals.
  • An access control system is a system which enables an authority to control access to areas and resources in a given physical facility or computer-based information system.
  • An access control system, within the field of physical security, is generally seen as the second layer in the security of a physical structure.
  • Access control systems are typically used in or for situations requiring identification of each and every person (e.g. badge, biometric) in order to access an area. This area is typically accessible through a single door or passage controlled by an ID sensor.
  • the access system may involve an authorized person presenting an access card to a card reader, or may involve fingerprint or retina verification or other means. Access is granted only if the person's credentials are verified and it is ensured that the physical situation is permitted.
  • the reader When a credential is presented to an ID sensor of reader, the reader sends the credential's information, usually a number, to a control panel, a highly reliable processor.
  • the control panel compares the credential's number to an access control list, grants or denies the presented request, and sends a transaction log to a database.
  • access is denied based on the access control list, the door remains locked. If there is a match between the credential and the access control list, the control panel operates a relay that in turn unlocks the door. The control panel also ignores a door open signal to prevent an alarm.
  • the reader further provides feedback, such as a flashing red LED for an access denied and a flashing green LED for an access granted.
  • credentials can be passed around, thus subverting the access control list. For example, Alice has access rights to the server room but Bob does not. Alice either gives Bob her credential or Bob takes it; he now has access to the server room.
  • two-factor authentication can be used.
  • the presented credential and a second factor are needed for access to be granted.
  • the second factor can be a PIN, a second credential, operator intervention, or a biometric input.
  • the factors are characterized as
  • a problem is that once the door is open an authorized person can be 'tailgated' by another member of staff or an unauthorized person. Another problem is that an authorized person may open the door, but for some reason not pass through. A conventional access control system is likely to assume the person has passed through. This will have bad implications where the system is required for safety or time and attendance reasons to know if a person is 'in' or 'out'.
  • the newer access control systems use sensing systems to detect certain of these misuse situations. These sensing systems can detect a limited number of situations. These systems are not capable to enable a situation/application specific access strategy. These systems are not configurable to be adaptable to different imaginable security policies.
  • the difficulty in these kind of automatic access control systems therefore lies in the correct implementation of security policies defining classes of permitted and rejected physical situations.
  • the present invention provides for an improved access control device for monitoring and controlling the passage of persons through a passageway or a doorway between an inside area and an outside area.
  • the access control device comprises at least one transition request device, such as an ID sensor activated by access card or badge or a biometric sensor (fingerprint, retina), said transition request device to be activated by a person requesting authorization to pass through said passageway or doorway and a presence detection and tracking device for detecting the presence of a person in the vicinity of said passageway or doorway and for tracking the movement of a person within or through said passageway or doorway.
  • the access control device further comprises a control unit configured for assigning a virtual transition ticket to a person after authorization to pass through said passageway or doorway has been granted to said person, said virtual transition ticket being representative of the transition privileges granted to said person, i.e. the privileges regarding the transition direction through said passageway of doorway, and for controlling said presence detection and tracking device to track the movement of the person with the virtual transition ticket with respect to the granted transition privileges, said control unit comprising a processing module with a configurable decision table for generating an output control signal based on an output signal of said at least one transition request device and an output signal of said presence detection and tracking device, said output control signal to be used for the controlling of the passage of persons through a passageway or a doorway.
  • a control unit configured for assigning a virtual transition ticket to a person after authorization to pass through said passageway or doorway has been granted to said person, said virtual transition ticket being representative of the transition privileges granted to said person, i.e. the privileges regarding the transition direction through said passageway of doorway
  • the configurable decision table allows to define a plurality of different situations, like the presence of one or more persons in the vicinity of the passageway or the transition request device, a transition request from the inside to the outside or from the outside to the inside, simultaneous transition attempts from different persons (in the same direction or in opposite directions), transition attempt in accordance with the assigned access ticket or privilege or in violation of the assigned access ticket or privilege, abortion of a transition motion or U-turn during transition, etc and the associated output signal statuses of the control unit.
  • the output signal statuses may considerably differ between a high security policy, where strict compliance with a restricted access policy is required, and a less severe high throughput policy.
  • the expressions "inside area” and “outside area” are only chosen for distinguishing purposes without prejudice to the actual location of these areas.
  • the inside area will normally be the "high security side”
  • the “outside area” will be the non-controlled public area.
  • the transition request device may be configured for autonomous authentication of a person requesting transition authorization and for issuing an authentication output signal representative of a yes/no access to be granted.
  • the transition request device may simply comprise a "credential” reader such as a card or badge reader or a biometric scanner, which issues a “credential ID” to the control unit, in which case said control unit is configured for authentication of the person and for generating the corresponding "yes/no access to be granted” signal.
  • a "credential” reader such as a card or badge reader or a biometric scanner
  • the output control signal of the control unit may be used for controlling an open/close relay of a door, or to generate an alarm signal in case of misuse, or for controlling a status indicator with respect of the actual transition operation.
  • the presence detection and tracking device should preferably be able to track a single person out of a group of persons and to follow this person in all the possible dimensions.
  • the presence detection and tracking device therefore comprises some kind of 3D imager and preferably at least one 3D camera preferably operating according to a TOF principle.
  • Such a 3D camera determines depth information simultaneously with the image recordation and thus enables fast tracking in all possible dimensions without requiring huge data processing capabilities of the associated processing unit.
  • said control unit assigns an entry ticket to said person after successful authorization upon reception of an entry request signal by said transition request device, said entry ticket granting the privilege of transition from the outside area to the inside area.
  • said control unit may assign an exit ticket to said person after successful authorization, said exit ticket granting the privilege of transition from the inside area to the outside area.
  • the classical access control systems usually fail to implement a given access policy.
  • the control unit is preferably configured to assign a transition ticket to the person which was first present in said specific area.
  • said control unit is configured to assign a transition ticket to the person, which is located closest to said transition request device.
  • said control unit is configured to assign a transition ticket to the person which first transits through said passageway or doorway (in the direction of requested authorization).
  • the output signal of the tracking device enables the control unit to generate a misuse output signal based on the configurable decision table as soon as a non authorized person (i.e. a person which had no transition ticked assigned) attempts to pass the passageway or doorway.
  • the present invention enables a reliable counting functionality for inward and outward direction, thus allowing a reliable calculation of the occupancy of the 'inside' area.
  • the present invention relates to a sensing device combined with a suitable algorithm to enable physical situation detection.
  • the system is easily configurable to different physical situations.
  • Inputs are door open/close sensor and credential reading.
  • Outputs are door unlock signal, alarm, status display/indicator and open/close mechanism.
  • the invention may comprise an integrated sensing and control device that controls a door lock mechanism and/or an alarm notification device and/or status indicators, based on a configurable logic that considers a door open status (option) and/or an entry request signal and/or an exit request signal and/or the presence and movement of persons determined by a person detection and tracking device (which can be an optical imaging device like a 3D time of flight range camera and a person detection and tracking algorithm) as inputs.
  • a person detection and tracking device which can be an optical imaging device like a 3D time of flight range camera and a person detection and tracking algorithm
  • the device provides counting functionality for inward and outward direction, allowing the calculation of the occupancy of the 'inside' area.
  • This same information of completed transitions between inside and outside areas is also useful to a supervising system to hold a more accurate list of persons that are inside or outside the areas in case this is made possible by an identification of the persons entering or leaving the area by a reader on each side of the door.
  • the logic may consist of one or more of the following steps that are cyclically processed :
  • the configurability of the logic steps allows the realization of different access policies like a high security policy or a high throughput policy.
  • the security level of the access control system can be improved versus state of the art system.
  • the sequence of exit/entry requests and movement of persons, situations like tailgaiting, credential passback, U-turns, crossing and aborting a transition can be detected and the access control system can react adequately, preventing or minimizing unallowed access to the inside area.
  • the tracking information also allows the confirmation of completed transitions between inside and outside areas which is useful to a supervising system to hold an accurate list of persons that are inside or outside the areas in case when persons identification is provided to the supervising system.
  • Fig. 1 schematically shows the different components of an embodiment of an access control system according to the present invention.
  • the access control system is configured for controlling an automatic door of barrier 10 in a passageway between an outside area 12 and an inside area 14.
  • the access control system comprises a transition request device 16, e.g. a badge reader or a biometric scanner, which his arranged in the vicinity of the passageway or doorway.
  • a terminal of the transition request device will be located on both sides of the doorway, one in the "outside area” for enabling persons to request entry into the "inside area", and one in the "inside area” for enabling persons to request exit from the "inside area”.
  • a presence detection and tracking device 18, e.g. a 3D camera is arranged for detecting the presence of a person at least in the doorway itself and in the part of the "outside area", which is located immediately in the vicinity of the doorway and a terminal of the transition request device 16.
  • a control unit 20 is provided for assigning a virtual transition ticket to a person after authorization to pass through said passageway or doorway 10 has been granted to said person and for controlling said presence detection and tracking device to track the movement of the person with the virtual transition ticket with respect to the granted transition privileges.
  • the control unit 20 comprises a processing module 22 with a configurable decision table 24 for generating an output control signal 26 based on an output signal of said at least one transition request device 16 and an output signal of said presence detection and tracking device 18.
  • the output control signal of the control unit may then be used for the controlling of the passage of persons through a passageway or a doorway 10 or for the activation or deactivation of an alarm device or the like.
  • Fig. 2 shows a different view of the access control system on a control screen of the access control device 10.
  • the represented situation includes the following components:
  • FIG. 3 represents a number of different situations and the corresponding actions in a high security implementation of the access control
  • Fig. 4 represents the different situations and the corresponding actions in a medium security, high throughput implementation of the access control.
  • the person requesting entry resp. present in the detection zone are represented by the dots, the inside area is located on the left hand side of the barrier or door and the outside area is located at the right hand side of the door.
  • the activation of the transition request device is represented by the reference sign "1" upon which the "virtual transition ticket” is assigned to the person located closest to the transition request device.
  • Reference signals "2" and “3” refer to the actions following the activation of the transition request device. Based on the above convention, the different scenarios are self-explaining. From Fig. 3 and 4 it will for instance be appreciated, that a number of situations, which in a high security policy require a "Blocked” action are classified as "normal” action in the low level security policy.
  • a possible implementation of the logic may comprise:
