  • Publication number: 20190320286
    Abstract: Managing an access device associated with a controlled area at a place of hospitality is described. A location of a device of a user is determined. A controlled area that the user is authorized to access is determined. The location of the device of the user is monitored, and when the location of the device of the user is within a first area proximate to the controlled area, a first signal is transmitted to an access device associated with the controlled area. The first signal is used to manage an operation of the access device. An additional location of the device of the user may be determined. When the additional location of the device of the user is within a second area proximate to the controlled area, a second signal used to enable access to the controlled area is transmitted to the access device.

  • Patent number: 10181229
    Abstract: Providing access to one or more services at a place of hospitality is described. Initially, information regarding a user is received from a medium, where the medium includes a plurality of sectors and the information regarding the user is stored on one or more dedicated sectors. An identity of the user is determined based on the information regarding the user. A service reserved for the user is identified based on the identity of the user, where the service is provided by a service provider at the place of hospitality. One or more dedicated sectors of the plurality of sectors of the medium assigned to the service provider are then identified. Finally, the one or more dedicated sectors assigned to the service provider are configured to enable access to the service reserved for the user and provided by the service provider.
