Publication number: 20240153364Abstract: In example implementations, a door monitoring sensor is provided. The door monitoring sensor includes a communication interface to transmit an alarm when a door operates outside of operational parameters of the door, an angular sensor to measure rotational movement of the a door, a movement sensor to detect movement along an x-y-z coordinate plane, a radar sensor to detect an object, a rechargeable power supply to provide power to the angular sensor, the movement sensor, and the radar sensor, and a processor. The processor is communicatively coupled to the communication interface, the angular sensor, the movement sensor, and the radar sensor. The processor is to determine that the door is moving outside of the operational parameters of the door and generate the alarm that is transmitted by the communication interface in response to determination that the door is moving outside of the operational parameters of the door.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 15, 2024Publication date: May 9, 2024Inventors: Xin Cui, Ryan Carroll, Bruce Burwell, Zhizhuo Wu

Patent number: 9605468Abstract: The present disclosure includes systems, methods, and articles of manufacture for controlling a door. In various embodiments, exemplary systems may include a controller that may initialize and/or reset a limit count. A controller may initialize and/or reset a limit count in response to detection by a first position sensor of a first target. A controller may further initialize and/or reset a limit count by incrementing the limit count in response to a signal from a gear tooth sensor until a second position sensor detects a second target, whereupon the controller may store the limit count.Type: GrantFiled: January 14, 2016Date of Patent: March 28, 2017Assignee: CORNELL IRONWORKS ENTERPRISESInventors: Xin Cui, Jeffery L. Mueller, Michael D. Mankoski, G. Bruce Burwell
