  • Patent number: 11619738
    Abstract: A wireless dual technology displacement sensor (“displacement sensor system”) and method are disclosed. The displacement sensor system includes an analyzing sensor for determining a range to a measuring point and a trigger sensor for activating the analyzing sensor. The trigger sensor is an accelerometer or an optical proximity sensor (OPS), in examples. The analyzing sensor is preferably a time of flight range sensor. When installed as part of a door system having a door and door frame, for example, the trigger sensor detects movement of the door, and activates the analyzing sensor in response. The analyzing sensor then determines the range to the measuring point, such as the door frame. This two sensor system can be thus used to prevent the high current consumption of existing displacement sensor systems.

  • Patent number: 11562634
    Abstract: A passive infrared motion detector discriminates between the motion of humans and pets in a premises. The motion detector includes an infrared sensor and a mirror for focusing infrared radiation from distinct fields of view. In one embodiment, a mask prevents infrared radiation from reaching the infrared sensor, and cut away regions on the surface of the mask allow selective passage of infrared radiation to the infrared sensor. In an alternative embodiment, the cylindrical mirror elements includes reflective and unreflective regions, which allow selective passage of infrared radiation to the infrared sensor. The cut away regions and the reflective regions are elongated to correspond to the shape of standing humans. As a result, the infrared radiation from animals only partially reaches the infrared sensor.

  • Patent number: 10718147
    Abstract: A system and method for an optical displacement detector system with adjustable pattern direction are disclosed. In an embodiment, the detector system includes a mounting bracket and a sensor assembly. The sensor assembly includes a housing, and a sensor module in the housing. The sensor assembly can be rotated with respect to the mounting bracket to adjust an optical axis of the sensor module. In another embodiment, the detector system includes a turntable that enables additional adjustment of the optical axis. Such a system significantly improves installation of these detector systems as compared to existing optical displacement detector systems, which have fixed optical axes. In one application, the detector system is installed in a door system having a door and door frame, and detects displacement of the door.

  • Patent number: 10565842
    Abstract: A method and device for omnidirectional and anti-sabotage anti-tampering detection are disclosed. For this purpose, a proposed security device assembly includes a mounting bracket, a security device such as a motion detector or surveillance camera, and an anti-tampering system. The security device is mounted via the mounting bracket. The anti-tampering system includes a permanent magnet and a magnetometer for detecting a magnetic field of the permanent magnet, and includes a controller. The controller detects changes in the magnetic field that are indicative of movement between the mounting bracket and the security device. In general, the anti-tampering system spans across the mounting bracket and the security device. Preferably, the permanent magnet is attached to the mounting bracket and the magnetometer is included within the security device.
