Security system with fixture and tracking devices for in room security of valuables
View Patent ↗A security system includes an fixture and a tracking device in wireless communication with the fixture to communicate a disturbance to the tracking device.
1. A security system, comprising: a fixture an electromechanical lock; and a tracking device operable to determine a relative position with respect to the electromechanical lock and wirelessly communicate the position via a Bluetooth Low energy wireless protocol to communicate a disturbance to the electromechanical lock, wherein the disturbance includes at least one of a movement and a change in light, and the electromechanical lock generates an audit trail of the tracking device.
2. The system as recited in claim 1 , wherein the tracking device is operable to determine a global position and communicate the position to the fixture.
3. A method of operating a security system, the method comprising:
determining a disturbance of a tracking device, wherein the disturbance includes at least one of movement and a change in light;
communicating the disturbance to an electromechanical lock;
determining a relative position of the tracking device to the electromechanical lock; and
generating an audit trail of the tracking device by the electromechanical lock.
4. The method as recited in claim 3 , further comprising attaching the tracking device to a valuable.
5. The method as recited in claim 3 , further comprising positioning the tracking device within a valuable.
6. An electromechanical lock, comprising: a lock transceiver operable to wirelessly communicate with a tracking device in response to a disturbance of the tracking device, wherein the tracking device operable to determine a relative position with respect to the electromechanical lock and wirelessly communicate the position via a Bluetooth Low energy wireless protocol, wherein the disturbance includes at least one of a movement and a change in light, and the electromechanical lock generates an audit trail of the tracking device.
7. The system as recited in claim 6 , wherein the audit trail includes a time associate with the tracking device passage of the lock transceiver.
