Patent number: 11678806Abstract: The Personal Warning Temperature (PWT) is a method of determining a person's personal warning temperature that defines a fever for that person. The PWT may also be used to provide an indication to recommend medical evaluation for a person. The method includes analyzing a person's body temperature measurements taken over time when the person may be healthy, in order to find the person's average temperature, a standard deviation, a channel defined by an upper and lower temperature bound using the average and standard deviation, such that nearly all body temperatures fall within the channel, and a personal warning temperature similarly defined using the average, and the standard deviation. A personal warning temperature may be used for improved and accelerated awareness of a person's health status.Type: GrantFiled: July 4, 2022Date of Patent: June 20, 2023Assignee: Ideal Innovations, Inc.Inventors: Robert William Kocher, Douglas Earl Dyer, John Shelly Bowling, II

Patent number: 11568695Abstract: An information-based access control system for facilities. The control system includes a mobile app and securely connected central server, which is cloud-based. The app collects and transmits multiple biometric and other authentication factors and the facility enabling the server to verify identity and check to ensure the person is authorized to obtain access. If so, the server issues a limited duration approved biometric, which can be displayed to the facility guards, compared with a on-site image taken with a biometric sensor at the location, and used to control signal lights and electronic gates to obtain access quickly, conveniently, inexpensively, and securely. Also, a vehicle on the move can acquire access without having to slow down or stop if the biometric sensor can obtain an image inside the vehicle.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2022Date of Patent: January 31, 2023Inventors: Robert William Kocher, Douglas Earl Dyer

Patent number: 11170894Abstract: The Access and Temperature Monitoring system (ATMs) checks the identity and health of persons seeking access to a facility, building, event, airport border, or controlled area. It quickly checks the person's identity by recognizing the person, for example, by facial recognition, or by reading a unique token the person has, such as a smart card. If the person seeking access is recognized, the system quickly checks the health of the person. For example, a contactless measuring of core temperature is taken and is then compared to an on-file core temperature of the individual to see if it is elevated. If elevated, a secondary check is made by a precision medical instrument and compared to the precision data on file. Networking ATMs together to an Access Control Center will further assist in identifying virus outbreaks and reduce response time to assist in saving lives.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 2020Date of Patent: November 9, 2021Inventors: Robert William Kocher, Douglas Earl Dyer, Loran Dean Ambs, John Shelly Bowling, II

Patent number: 11106895Abstract: A video alert and secondary confirmation system and method for detecting and verifying a person of interest is disclosed. The system and method include selecting an access way for detecting persons of interest. Independent video cameras are placed along the access way and have varying thresholds for identifying persons on a wanted list. Video alert modules operate in tandem with overlapping fields of view at a high threshold matching level. Each video camera is linked to a video alert module. Faces that are above a set threshold are displayed on a video alert module. A determination of match or no match is made. If a match appears to be made, a security team will be alerted to approach the individual who is an apparent match and take a closeup photograph that is analyzed to verify the match through a secondary confirmation.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2020Date of Patent: August 31, 2021Inventors: Robert William Kocher, Douglas Earl Dyer

Patent number: 10990700Abstract: An internet profile dilution device and method are provided. To prevent the sale of individual user's internet searches to advertisers, an internet profile dilution software is configured to significantly dilute the individual search and browsing by opening a site the individual has selected, or in the default state, will automatically select from a variety of news outlet websites for dilution of the individual's internet profile. The internet profile dilution software will scan the site, for links to another article, and will navigate to that article and spend a random amount of time appearing to read the article. The software will search for particular words from the title of the article to continue to further dilute the internet profile of the individual. The individual's internet search is sufficiently diluted by the internet profile dilution software so that an accurate profile of the individual's internet search and browsing cannot be established.Type: GrantFiled: February 18, 2020Date of Patent: April 27, 2021Inventors: Robert William Kocher, Douglas Earl Dyer, Andrew Christopher Isett
