Patent number: 11232664Abstract: The present application concerns access control for controlling unlocking of a door (102) at the presentation of credentials (108) at the door. A credentials relay unit (112) and a lock controller (114) are mounted in the vicinity of the door. The credentials relay unit transmits received credentials to a pre-configured, first network address, and in addition transmits a wake-up signal (122) to the lock controller, which upon receipt of the wake-up signal will transmit a request (126) for instructions to a pre-configured, second network address. In response to the request, the lock controller receives unlocking or no-action instructions (128a, 128b), and in case unlocking instructions are received, the lock controller transmits an unlocking signal (132).Type: GrantFiled: April 15, 2021Date of Patent: January 25, 2022Assignee: AXIS ABInventors: Daniel Andersson, Ingemar Larsson

Patent number: 10685557Abstract: The present invention relates to an emergency notification system where indicators are mounted on or in a building in such a way that optical or thermal signals emitted from the indicators form a time-variant indication detectable outside the building of an emergency event taking place inside the building. Sensors detecting a predetermined sound are mounted inside the building and are each connected to a nearby indicator. When a sensor makes a detection, it sends event information to its associated indicator which will prompt the indicator to emit a first optical or thermal signal. Based on a signal from a timer connected to the indicator, a property of the first signal will change after a certain time has passed, thereby providing the time-variant indication.Type: GrantFiled: September 24, 2019Date of Patent: June 16, 2020Assignee: AXIS ABInventors: Ingemar Larsson, Anders Hansson, Daniel Andersson

Patent number: 10531058Abstract: A method and assembly produce color images of a scene captured by an image sensor exposed to visible light as well as IR radiation. A first image is captured with a first proportion of an iris aperture covered by an IR-cut filter. A first amount of radiation captured in the first image is determined and a second image captured with a second proportion of the iris covered by the IR-cut filter. A second amount of radiation captured in the second image is determined and a proportion of IR radiation is calculated in the scene based on the first amount of light, the second amount of light, the first IR-cut filter proportion, and the second IR-cut filter proportion. An IR contribution is removed from an image by using the calculated proportion of IR radiation.Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 2018Date of Patent: January 7, 2020Assignee: AXIS ABInventors: Jonas Hjelmström, Stefan Lundberg, Ingemar Larsson

Patent number: 10029811Abstract: The present invention concerns a method of splicing two sealing strips and a sealing strip formed by the method. The sealing strip is placed at longitudinal edges of a packaging material web, used for packaging containers for liquid foods. The sealing strips to be spliced are cut each forming an oblique edge of about 45°, as seen in plan view. The oblique edges are then placed one on top of the other forming an overlapping area. The overlapping area is in the form of an oblique band having a length of about 3 mm. The ends of the sealing strips are then fused together by heating both from one side at the overlapping area.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 2010Date of Patent: July 24, 2018Assignee: TETRA LAVAL HOLDINGS & FINANCE S.A.Inventor: Ingemar Larsson
