Description

Procedure for identification management of people.

Object of the invention

The present invention, as expressed in the statement of this specification refers to a procedure for the management of identification of persons whose purpose is to facilitate for each site hosted by procedure recognition, identification and permissions of each person by one or more site supervisors, so that an updated identification of the data of the people, areas of the site where they may be, and others data, allowing a record of all incidents, correct or incorrect, occurring in a plurality of locations under the procedure of the present invention, whereby the identification and control of people can be done in a way Reliable, fast and simple.

Background of the invention

Various procedures are known for identification and control of people at sites, such as equipment to mark at the entrance and exit of the location, surveillance systems using cameras, and the like. However, these conventional procedures have inconveniences related to the identification and control that provide is usually very limited, lacking possibilities such as instant recognition in different areas of the location, data management related to the control of people; also presenting the inconvenience of excessive cost when control requirements by site areas They have a high complexity.

We do not know in the current state of the art procedures for identification and control of people in locations where each person has a card identification and supervisors have a device laptop capable of recognizing those cards and communicating it to a web service, just as the procedure hereby does invention.

Description of the invention

To achieve the objectives and avoid drawbacks indicated in previous sections, the invention it consists of a procedure for the identification management of people, who facilitates in each location hosted by this procedure recognition, identification and permissions of each person by one or more supervisors.

Novelly, according to the invention, in the procedure of it:

-

To each person is provided with an identification card;

-

to each supervisor is provided with a portable device capable of recognizing said cards at short and / or medium distance and to communicate remotely via wireless telecommunication network with a web service;

-

saying web service is integrated into a server that communicates via network local with a desktop application for clients that is installed in the offices of the service operator and that manages identities, permissions and data relevant to the referral location and similarly for others who are clients of said operator.

According to the preferred embodiment of the invention, when a supervisor arrives at the corresponding location, proceed as follows:

-

Be Identify using your portable device in the application desk, also indicating the area of the site where find;

-

be brings people closer to recognize using their device portable ID cards, receiving on said device data such as photograph of the person, data main areas of the site where you have permission to act, if you have your documentation in order, or others;

-

record possible incidents or irregularities that occur according to information provided by The desktop application.

In addition, in the preferred embodiment of the invention, there are means of synchronization between portable devices and the desktop application, so that before changes of data, permissions or other variations that set up portable devices feature the latest changes made provided they are within the corresponding Telecommunication network coverage.

In the aforementioned preferred embodiment of the invention, identification cards are cards or labels RFID tag (UHF or LF); portable devices are PDA devices that have an RFID module (UHF or LF) for reading these tags and with a compact database, as per example SQL Server CE, which synchronizes with a database of the server through the web service; in the telecommunication network they use GPRS, UMTS, 3G, 3.5G or other communications; the server hosts a SQL Server database and the web service that handles to synchronize the databases of the PDA's with that of the server; while the local network is an Ethernet or analog network and the desktop application is an application developed, as per example in C # of the Microsoft platform.net, in which manage all existing entities, such as locations, site areas, supervisors, people, permits and the rest.

With the structure described, the The process of the invention has advantages such as facilitates an immediate recognition of people by the supervisors, receiving these complementary data such as photograph, areas of the site where access is allowed and others, always in an updated way, with which the control facilitated by the process of the invention is of great effectiveness and a relatively low cost when found centralized the control system in the service operator and through web services.

Then, to facilitate a better understanding of this descriptive report and being an integral part of the same, a unique figure is accompanied in which with character illustrative and not limiting the object of the invention.

Brief description of the figure

Figure 1.- Represents a block diagram functional that shows the elements that are used in a procedure for managing people identification made according to the present invention.

Description of an embodiment of the invention

Following is a description of a example of the invention referring to the numbering adopted in the figure.

Thus, in the present example, the operator of the service 1 manages the identification and control of people of a plurality of locations, for which it has a computer application 2 which is a desktop application for customers, as depicted in the block diagram of the figure one.

At each site, each person is provided of an identification card 8, while each supervisor it is provided with a portable device 7, as it also illustrates that figure 1.

Each portable device 7 is able to recognize the cards 8 at short and / or medium distance and to communicate remotely via a wireless telecommunication network 6 with a web service 5, as can be seen in the fi-
Figure 1.

In addition, the referred web service 5 is integrated into a server 4 that communicates via local network 3 with the application of desk 2, as depicted in figure 1.

Once the configuration provided is established by the procedure, each supervisor can proceed from the following mode:

-

Be Identify using your portable device in application 2, indicating the area of the location where find.

-

Be brings people closer to recognize using their device portable 7 identification cards 8, receiving in said device 7 data such as photograph of the person, data main areas of the site where you have permission to act, if you have your documentation in order or others.

-

Record possible incidents or irregularities that occur according to information provided by the desktop application 2.

In the procedure of this example you have planned means of synchronization between portable devices 7 and desktop application 2, so that when faced with changes in data, permissions or other variations that are established, especially regarding cards 8 in application 2, those devices 7 laptops feature the latest changes made, provided that are in the coverage of the telecommunication network 6.

Although in other examples of the invention, obviously, other devices, equipment and application programs, for the present example the indicated below, easily obtained in the state Current technique:

Thus, the identification cards 8 can be RFID tag cards or tags (UHF or LF), while portable devices 7 can be PDA devices equipped with RFID module (UHF or LF) for reading said tags and providing also in these devices 7 a compact database, as per example SQL Server CE, which synchronizes with a database of the server 4 through web service 5. Moreover, in the network of Telecommunication 6 GPRS, UMTS, 3G communications can be used, 3.5G or others. Regarding server 4, it will host a database of data, such as SQL Server, and the web service 5 that is responsible for synchronizing device databases laptops 7 with that of server 4. The local network 3 can be a network Ethernet or analog, and desktop application 2 can be a developed application, such as in C # of the platform.net from Microsoft, in which all existing entities are managed, in which all existing entities are managed, such as sites, site areas, supervisors, people, Permissions and others.
