Abstract: A method of monitoring movements of an individual or object provided with a direction indicator that is adapted to send to a monitoring center from a mechanical or electronic sensor a signal that discloses the direction of the direction indicator so as to enable, together with other signals sent to the monitoring center and disclosing the position of the individual object, which is shown on a display screen in the form of a correctly-turned three-dimensional animated picture. The direction indicator includes an indicating element which is adapted to take essentially the same position regardless of the orientation of the direction indicator. The direction indicator includes sensors for sensing the position of the indicating element and producing a signal that can be sent to a monitoring unit which shows the direction of the individual or object carrying the direction indicator.

Abstract: A method of monitoring the movements of an individual in and around buildings, rooms and other spaces, where each individual carries a passive transponder which has an individual-unique identity and which is for co-action with an active antenna that is connected, either directly or indirectly, to a monitoring center for transmitting signals received from transponders, and where a plurality of antennas are placed in and around the buildings, rooms or other spaces to be monitored. The signals transmitted to the exercise center are used to show movements of the individual in the form of a three-dimensional animated picture on a picture screen.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of verifying ID-papers and the like, particularly a document (1) that includes a photograph of a person that supports the identity of said person, wherein subsequent to having provided the document with all necessary information, including a photograph of the bearer of the document, the authority or organisation issuing the document scans the information carried by the document and stores the information in a data base so that upon presentation of the document (1) the scanned replica can be retrieved (5) and compared with the presented document.

Abstract: A method of monitoring movements of an individual (1) in and around buildings, rooms and like spaces, wherein an individual (1) or an object is provided with a direction indicator (3) that is adapted to send to a monitoring centre from a mechanical or electronic sensor a signal that discloses the direction of the direction indicator so as to enable, together with other signals sent to the monitoring centre and disclosing the position of the individual/the object, the individual/object to be shown on a display screen in the form of a correctly-turned three-dimensional animated picture of said individual/said object.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of monitoring the movements of an individual in and around buildings, rooms and other spaces, wherein each individual carries a passive transponder which has an individual-unique identity and which is intended for co-action with an active antenna that is connected, either directly or indirectly, to a monitoring centre (13) for transmitting signals received from transponders, and wherein a plurality of antennas (12) are placed in and around the buildings, rooms or other spaces to be monitored. The signals transmitted to the exercise centre (13) are used to show movements of the individual in the form of a three-dimensional animated picture on a picture screen.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an arrangement for preventing the unauthorized passage of a motor vehicle (1) past a specific location. According to the invention the arrangement includes a transmitter (4) which delivers a specific radio signal of limited range is mounted at said specific location. The vehicle (1) has installed therein a receiver (3) which responds to the specific radio signal and which upon receipt of said specific signal activates a vehicle-mounted check means (5) which checks whether or not the vehicle is authorized to pass said specific location and which is constructed to activate one or more electronic circuits in the vehicle in a manner to render said vehicle inoperable when said vehicle is not authorized to pass said specific location.

Abstract: A device for coding a cable bunch having a plurality of conductors of mutually different colors or color combinations. A first electrical connector (6) is provided on one end of the cable bunch and a second electrical connector (7) is connected to the device (8) to which the cable bunch (10) is to be connected, wherein the electrical connectors have a number of connector pins to which the conductors are connected individually. The electrical connectors when connected together are intended to transmit current or a signal from each of the conductors in the cable bunch to a predetermined connector pin in the second electrical connector. There is provided along the cable bunch (10) a locking device (11) which includes a code unit (12) which is constructed to break and connect one or more conductors incoming from the cable bunch (10) to the code unit (12) to the same number of conductors outgoing from the code unit.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for remotely controlling one or more vehicle functions. The method includes providing a first coded signal transmitted by a cordless transmitter. The signal is received in a receiver located in the vehicle. The receiver includes a decoding device to detect and identify the code and to compare the signal code with a vehicle specific code. When agreement is found between the received code and the vehicle specific code, the receiver activates one or more electronic circuits in the vehicle through the agency of a control circuit, such as to deactivate one or more of the vehicle functions. The method also includes transmitting from the cordless transmitter a second coded signal which results in the activation of those vehicle functions that were earlier deactivated.
