Publication number: 20220304143Abstract: Apparatuses and methods are provided for mitigating radio frequency interference and electromagnetic compatibility issues caused by the resonance of metal planes of a circuit board. A method for controlling impedance at an edge of a circuit board includes creating a cut at an edge of a plane of the circuit board. The cut extends from the edge of the plane to a point at a depth into the plane. The method can further include creating a cut pattern in the edge of the plane by repeating the cut along the edge of the plane such that an impedance of the plane at the depth is different, or lower, than an impedance of the plane at the edge of the plane. Other aspects are described.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 14, 2022Publication date: September 22, 2022Inventors: Stephen Harvey Hall, Khang Choong Yong, Ying Ern Ho, Yun Rou Lim, Wil Choon Song

Patent number: 11403902Abstract: Disclosed are an apparatus and a method for remotely managing access to an area. An access management platform, which can be an electronic lock that is installed on, e.g., a door of a house, can enable a user to establish a virtual presence at the door. In one example, a delivery person activates a doorbell button/icon of the access management platform, which sends a message to a smartphone of the owner of the platform. The owner, who is at work, uses his smartphone to initiate a video stream using a camera of the platform, and a two way audio stream. The owner sees and initiates a discussion with the delivery person. The owner uses his smartphone to unlock the door, and asks the delivery person to open the door and deliver the package inside. The owner uses his smartphone to capture his signature to acknowledge the delivery.Type: GrantFiled: July 22, 2020Date of Patent: August 2, 2022Assignee: Gate Labs, Inc.Inventors: Harvey Ho, Ehsan Saeedi, Danial Ehyaie

Publication number: 20200349786Abstract: Disclosed are systems, apparatus, and methods for remotely managing access to a space and performing trust verification to authorize or deny people access to the space. An access management platform comprising an electronic lock installed on a door can enable a user to establish a virtual presence at the door. For example, a delivery person can activate a doorbell button or icon of the lock and the lock can send a message to a smartphone of a user of the platform. The user can remotely use the smartphone to initiate a video stream using a camera of the platform and a two way audio stream. The user can use the smartphone to unlock the door and ask the delivery person to deliver the package inside. The platform can also determine and control the status of the space and communicate with other devices regarding the status of the space.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 30, 2020Publication date: November 5, 2020Applicant: Gate Labs Inc.Inventors: Harvey HO, Ehsan SAEEDI, Danial EHYAIE, Amin ARIANA

Patent number: 10755509Abstract: Disclosed are an apparatus and method that enables an owner/administrator to manage access to a shared resource based on identity that is established by use of biometric data. For example, access to a shared physical resource can be restricted via use of a biometric locking device. An access management platform can be used to authorize a new user to access the shared resource. Once authorized, the new user can unlock the biometric locking device based on, for example, fingerprint data of his finger. The access management platform can similarly be used to manage access to a virtual shared resource, such as an online account. A virtual locking device, such as a computer that acts as an intermediary between the user and the online account, can be used to restrict access to the online account. The access management platform can enable the user to access the online account based on biometric data.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2019Date of Patent: August 25, 2020Assignee: Gate Labs Inc.Inventors: Ehsan Saeedi, Danial Ehyaie, Harvey Ho
