Abstract: According to an aspect, an access control system includes a camera, a database configured to maintain facial information, and a processor. The processor is configured to: execute an identification algorithm to identify a subject based on the detected image and the facial information; identify at least one additional subject based on the detected image; determine movement information regarding the subject and the at least one additional subject; perform one or more second factor authentication processes; determine whether the at least one additional subject has permission to move through an access point based on the subject, the at least one additional subject, the movement information, and a likelihood of risk of tailgating; and grant access to the at least one additional subject based on the permission and whether one or more of the identification algorithm or the one or more second factor authentication processes are determined be successful.

Abstract: An access control system can include a camera that detects an image regarding a subject, a database maintaining information, a facial recognizer that receives the image and identifies a facial feature of the subject based on the received image and the facial information maintained by the database, and a processor to alert security or another user when an authorized user accessing an area of a building is under duress, when an unauthorized user is accessing an area of a building by tailgating after an authorized user, when an authorized user has not provided two-factor authentication, or when an authorized user is in a particular area of the building.

Abstract: An access control system (ACS) for a building includes an access reader, a camera, and an access controller. The access reader is configured to read an access credential provided by a person at an access point and generate ACS data including the access credential. The camera is configured to capture facial recognition system (FRS) data including an image of the person at the access point. The access controller is configured to determine whether the access credential is valid based on the ACS data, determine whether the person is recognized based on the FRS data, grant or deny access to the person through the access point based on whether the access credential is valid and whether the person is recognized, and generate and store one or more of a plurality of access events. Each of the access events corresponds to a different combination of whether the access credential is valid and whether the person is recognized.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure include methods, apparatuses, and computer readable media for controlling access including receiving authentication information associated with a user, determining whether the user is authorized to access the access-controlled point based on the authentication information, retrieving, in response to determining the user is authorized to access the access-controlled point, customized action information associated with the user, transmitting, to the access-controlled point, an unlock message comprising an indicator to grant the user the access to the access-controlled point, and performing one or more customized actions based on the customized action information.

Abstract: A visual feedback access control device and methods for use thereof. The visual feedback access control device may comprise a camera configured to obtain an image. The visual feedback access control device may also comprise a plurality of light emitting diodes (“LEDs”) arranged in an plurality of segments relative to the camera. The visual feedback access control device may also comprise where the plurality segments being individually controllable. The visual feedback access control device may also comprise having the LEDs configured to illuminate upon a received control signal based upon one or more access control trigger events.
