Abstract: A touchless access control system is configured to provide configurable selective access to an area to users in possession of a smartphone or other user device. On-site components of the system are configured to operate entirely offline and utilize the capabilities of the user device to perform any required communications over the internet. The system also operates without any required pre-configuration of the user device, so users are able to utilize the system without first installing proprietary software or creating user accounts. A facility administrator may also configure the system to allow varying levels of selective access filtering based on determinable characteristics of the user device. The system also generates valuable data describing the flow through and use of facilities to which access is controlled.

Abstract: A system allows an end-user to locate and gain access to an access-controlled facility or resource, such as a restroom, phone charging station, or Wi-Fi hot spot. Some implementations of the system monitor the formation and concentration of individuals into crowds that may place a higher demand on facilities and resources located near the crowd. The system may distribute mobile facilities to areas that offer convenient access to potential developing crowds, and when the system determines that there is a disparity between available resources and crowd demand reaches a certain level it may deploy one or more mobile facilities to positions proximate to that crowd. A mobile facility may also be requested on demand by a user or organizer, and some implementations provide cost sharing mechanisms and other user benefits related to requesting and accessing the facility.

Abstract: A system for enabling access to resources in a setting so that a number of requesters can efficiently access limited resources. The system may be implemented as a custom set of devices integrated in a setting, or may be retrofitted into existing equipment in some settings. A user interface is available to each potential requester that can be used to submit a request to access a resource. A server is configured to receive requests and use a variety of information to manage those requests and provide a notification via the user interfaces of when and where a user should proceed to in order to access a resource. The server also implements one or more techniques or procedures for managing the flow of traffic through the setting and to the resources to ease congestion and improve flow and access.

Abstract: A system that allows an end-user to locate and gain access to a private facility, such as a restroom or other resource, without requiring that the end-user interact with any facility personnel. A mobile application allows a user to identify and proceed to a location where a private facility is available. When a user arrives at the location, the mobile application communicates with access control devices at the location to notify facility personnel of the user's presence and unlock doors or otherwise remove safeguards preventing general public access to the private facility.
