Publication number: 20230388799Abstract: Systems and techniques for a physical access control systems with localization-based intent detection are described herein. In an example, an access control system may regulate access to an asset. The access control system is adapted to establish a first connection with a key-device. The access control system may be further adapted to receive a credential for a user over the first connection. The access control system may be further adapted to establish a second connection with the key-device. The access control system may be further adapted to determine an intent of the user to access the asset. The access control system may use location data derived from the second connection to determine the intent of the user. The access control system may be further adapted to provide the credential to an access controller, based on identifying an intent of the user to access the asset.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 9, 2023Publication date: November 30, 2023Inventors: Hans-Juergen Pirch, Fredrik Carl Stefan Einberg, Tomas Lars Jonsson, Silvain Jacques Prevost, Jan Steffl, Hans Gunnar Frank

Patent number: 11825292Abstract: Systems and techniques for a physical access control systems with localization-based intent detection are described herein. In an example, an access control system may regulate access to an asset. The access control system is adapted to receive a credential from a key device associated with a user using a first wireless connection. The access control system may be further adapted to verify the credential with a preliminary authentication for the asset. The access control system may be further adapted to establish a second wireless connection with the key device in response to verifying the credential with the preliminary authentication. The access control system may be adapted to determine an intent of the user to access the asset. The access control system may identify the credential includes a pattern in the preliminary authentication. The access control system may be further adapted to provide a command to grant access to the asset.Type: GrantFiled: March 24, 2020Date of Patent: November 21, 2023Assignee: ASSA ABLOY ABInventors: Hans-Juergen Pirch, Fredrik Carl Stefan Einberg, Tomas Lars Jonsson, Sylvain Jacques Prevost, Jan Steffl, Hans Gunnar Frank

Patent number: 11574776Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a monitoring system, for monitoring a vacuum on-load tap changer. The tap changer includes a housing with insulating fluid, a diverter switch inside of the housing and including at least one movable contact and at least two vacuum interrupters, and at least one pressure sensor which measures the pressure in the housing. The method, which is performed by a processing circuitry in the system, includes determining a pressure signature, including two succeeding peaks within a time interval, continuously measuring the pressure, detecting when the measured pressure shows the pressure signature, determining, based on the measured pressure within the pressure signature, the time between the first rise in pressure and the second drop, and setting the determined time to represent the switch time of the diverter switch.Type: GrantFiled: May 18, 2020Date of Patent: February 7, 2023Assignee: Hitachi Energy Switzerland AGInventors: Bengt-Olof Stenestam, Lars Jonsson
