Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for access control of persons according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Automatic access control typically creates access lanes with turnstiles, turnstiles, or other physical mechanical barriers to block access to services for unauthorized persons. Since the vast majority of people passing through the hubs also paid for the service, such physical barriers are not considered to be particularly customer friendly. There are also cultures in which these physical barriers have encountered such rejection that they could not prevail. Turnstiles at the access to ski lifts also have the disadvantage that ski poles and other equipment can get caught on them.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a satisfactorily functioning access control device, which remain freely accessible by persons with access rights, ie without standing and can be passed without physical barriers.
  • the person who passes the access lane is detected by an image recording and reproducing device such as a video camera.
  • the images taken by the image recording and reproducing device are fed to a data processing system, for example a PC, which evaluates the images, that is, checks whether there are one or more people passing through the access lane.
  • the access track preferably has a width which only allows the persons to move one behind the other in the access direction.
  • the image capture and playback device may be mounted over the access track so that a person can be distinguished from other objects by, for example, having a head and shoulders on both sides thereof.
  • non-contact data carriers are used.
  • non-contact data carriers and only one reading device it may be the case that two persons are in the reading area of the reading device, but only one data carrier with access authorization is read by the reading device.
  • at least two reading devices with separate reading areas are arranged behind each other on each access lane according to the invention.
  • the reading devices and the image data processing system of the image recording and reproducing device control an evaluation device, which may be formed by a separate or the same data processing system as the image data processing system.
  • the person detected by the detection device that is to say the image recording and reproducing device with the image data processing system, has no or no valid access authorization, ie no readings or no valid access authorization is read with the reading devices, this is indicated by the evaluation device and / or the access denied.
  • the image capture and playback device detects each person before reaching the areas of the readers of the access lane at a time sufficient to allow the data processing equipment the images supplied by the image capture and playback device can check for a person moving to the reading regions.
  • the detection time is not sufficient, ie the time it takes for the data processing system to check the images supplied by the image recording and reproducing device on whether a person moves from the beginning of the access track to the reading devices, the time to move to the Reading areas by harassment, at ski lifts by braking mats or the like. Extend on the access track.
  • the access may be disabled if no (valid) credential has been read during that time.
  • the access can be denied by a mechanical locking device at the end of the access lane.
  • the missing valid access authorization can also be displayed, for example by an alarm.
  • the device according to the invention is preferably designed so that the person is followed with the image recording and reproducing device and the data processing system until it leaves the area of the reading devices in the access direction. If no access authorization has been read by this person until then, this is indicated by the evaluation device and / or access is denied.
  • an optical alarm device may e.g. a traffic light with red light may be provided on the access lane, which is on when entering the area of the reading devices is turned on or turned on.
  • the red light may be off, e.g. a green light will be turned on to indicate the release.
  • an acoustic alarm device for example a siren
  • an acoustic display such as a voice output with automated announcement of an instruction for the person who has left the reading areas without read access in the direction of passage.
  • the denial of access without a read access authorization can also be performed by a controller.
  • a preferably portable control device may be provided with a monitor, on which the picture of the person taken with the image recording and reproducing device without read access authorization is displayed.
  • the image of the inaccessible person can be highlighted on the monitor using face recognition. Denial of access may be indicated to the control person by an alarm device, for example an audible alarm signal, possibly attached to the control device.
  • the reason of the rejection can be shown on the monitor. If the recording equipment is provided with a reading device for checking the access authorization, the inspection personnel have the option of carrying out an access authorization check.
  • the device according to the invention can also be designed so that an alarm goes out again when the person turns over on the access track and moves back against the passage direction. That is, according to the invention, not only can be determined where people are, but also how they move.
  • the access control device can also have multiple access tracks.
  • an image recording and reproducing device for example a video camera, which is mounted at the appropriate height and directed downwards, for example, also monitor two adjacent access tracks in their image recording field or camera field.
  • the device according to the invention detects the access situation by means of image processing, a size control of the persons with little additional effort can be realized as an additional function. This can be used to determine, for example, whether an adult uses a children's menu.
  • two or more image pickup and playback devices with different recording perspectives are used for size control to allow the image data processing equipment to perform a size control of the detected subject.
  • the image recording and reproducing device may be provided for height or size control and a sensor or other evaluation.
  • the access authorization is stored on a data carrier which is carried by the access-authorized person and readable by the reading devices.
  • a non-contact RFID data carrier with proximity data transfer distance is used.
  • control device By combining with a non-contact data carrier, the control device is automatically operated by the authorized person. This means that the user can pass the access lane freely, ie without stopping (eg for inserting a ticket).
  • the non-contact RFID data carrier transponder can be integrated in the form of smart cards or in watches, gloves, key chains, mobile phones or the like. Worn by the user items. Devices that provide access authorization through integrated non-contact interfaces, such as Bluetooth radio or infrared, can also be used, for example. Mobile phones.
  • the comfort for the user is substantially increased by eliminating the hub and the like.
  • Mechanical locking devices The combination of image recording and reproducing device and data evaluation, for example by a PC, offers additional cost advantages over conventional turnstile systems, especially if the access control device has multiple access lanes. For example, a combination of a video camera and a PC can readily monitor multiple transmission tracks with the computing power available today.
  • Another advantage of the passage control device according to the invention is the low maintenance, since the access control device according to the invention requires no moving parts. With appropriate parameterization of the device, so for example optimizing the length of the access tracks, position of the reading range of the reading device, focal length of the video camera lens, etc., the image processing effort can be kept low.
  • the access control device has two access tracks 1 and 2, which are passed in the direction of the arrow 3.
  • Each access lane 1, 2 is bounded laterally by two barriers 4 and 5 or 4 and 6.
  • the barriers 4 and 5 or 4 and 6 have such a distance that only one person P the passage 1, 2 can pass comfortably, two people next to each other so usually not.
  • a video camera 7 is mounted as an image recording and reproducing device above the access tracks 1, 2 so that their camera field 8 detects both access tracks 1, 2 over the entire width.
  • each access lane 1, 2 the antenna 9, shown in dashed lines, of a reading device for a non-contact data carrier is arranged in a housing 17.
  • the evaluation device 16 is provided at the same time, to which the reading device is connected.
  • each access lane 1, 2 has an optical alarm device or display in the form of a traffic light 11 and an acoustic alarm or display device 12.
  • each access lane 1, 2 has an entrance area 13, a read area 14 and an exit area 15.
  • the reading area 14 is the area in which the reading device with the antenna 9 reads the contactless data carrier of the person P who passes this area.
  • the data carrier is carried by the person P, e.g. in the form of a wristwatch 10.
  • the traffic light 11 or another locking device is arranged at the exit area 15.
  • the video camera 7 When a person enters the entrance area 13, it is detected by the video camera 7.
  • the images of the video camera 7 are fed to a data processing device, not shown, which can be examined for persons and arranged together with the data processing system for the evaluation device 16 in the housing 17. If the person P has been detected on the access lane 1 or 2 with the detection device consisting of the video camera 7 and the data processing system, this is followed until it leaves the reading area 14 in the direction of passage according to the arrow 3.
  • the red lamp of the traffic light 11 When the person P enters the reading area 14, e.g. the red lamp of the traffic light 11 is turned on at the respective access lane 1 or 2. It remains switched on until a contactless data carrier with access authorization has been read by the reading device 9 and has been processed by the evaluation device 16. Thereafter, e.g. the green light of the traffic light 11 is switched on.
  • a warning signal is emitted with the acoustic display 12, for example with a loudspeaker to reverse an automated announcement with instructions to the person in question, for example.
  • the audible device 12 If the person still moves further into the exit area 15 then the audible device 12 generates an alarm, e.g. a siren signal.
  • an alarm e.g. a siren signal.
  • the blocking of access without read access authorization can also be performed by a control person C.
  • the control person C has for this purpose a portable control device 18 with a monitor 19, on which the image of the person P taken with the image recording and reproducing device 7 is displayed when no access authorization has been read and the access is to be blocked.
  • the control device 18 also more information can be displayed, for example, when two people are close to the reading antenna 9 and thus a clear recognition of a permission can be difficult.
