Automatic creation and management of digital identity profiles for access control

1. A method of premises access control, comprising:

identifying, by a premises access control system, a premises access attempt associated with an individual attempting to access an entrance to a premises;

confirming, by the premises access control system, an identity of the individual;

granting access to the entrance of the premises to the individual by the premises access control system in response to confirming the identity of the individual;

capturing visual data of the individual at a location of the entrance of the premises, pursuant to confirming the identity of the individual; and

building, by the premises access control system, a digital identity profile of the individual based on the visual data of the individual captured at the location of the entrance of the premises.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the digital identity profile of the individual comprises visual characteristics of the individual.

3. The method of claim 2 , wherein the digital identity profile of the individual further comprises at least one of location information or time information of the premises access attempt.

4. The method of claim 2 , wherein building the digital identity profile of the individual comprises using a machine learning model to extract the visual characteristics of the individual from the visual data.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

identifying, by the premises access control system, a subsequent premises access attempt associated with the individual at the location of the premises access attempt;

confirming, by the premises access control system, the identity of the individual based on comparing the digital identity profile of the individual with further visual data of the individual captured contemporaneously with the subsequent premises access attempt; and

granting access to the entrance of the premises to the individual by the premises access control system in response to confirming the identity of the individual based on the digital identity profile.

6. The method of claim 5 , further comprising tracking motion at the location of the premises access attempt.

7. The method of claim 5 , further comprising:

updating the digital identity profile of the individual based on the further visual data of the individual captured contemporaneously with the subsequent premises access attempt.

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

determining whether a confidence level of the digital identity profile is higher than a threshold confidence level;

confirming, by the premises access control system, the identity of the individual based on comparing the digital identity profile of the individual with further visual data of the individual captured at a later time subsequent to the premises access attempt; and

wherein granting access to the entrance of the premises to the individual by the premises access control system is in response to confirming the identity of the individual based on the digital identity profile having the confidence level higher than the threshold confidence level.

9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising searching for recorded footage of the individual based on the digital identity profile of the individual.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein capturing the visual data comprises capturing the visual data by an image or video capture device pointing at the location of the entrance to the premises.

11. An apparatus for premises access control, comprising:

a memory; and

a processor communicatively coupled with the memory and configured to:

identify, by a premises access control system, a premises access attempt associated with an individual attempting to access an entrance to a premises;

confirm, by the premises access control system, an identity of the individual;

grant access to the entrance of the premises to the individual by the premises access control system in response to confirming the identity of the individual;

capture visual data of the individual at a location of the entrance of the premises, pursuant to confirming the identity of the individual; and

build, by the premises access control system, a digital identity profile of the individual based on the visual data of the individual captured at the location of the entrance of the premises.

12. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the digital identity profile of the individual comprises visual characteristics of the individual.

13. The apparatus of claim 12 , wherein the digital identity profile of the individual further comprises at least one of location information or time information of the premises access attempt.

14. The apparatus of claim 12 , wherein to build the digital identity profile of the individual comprises using a machine learning model to extract the visual characteristics of the individual from the visual data.

15. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

identify, by the premises access control system, a subsequent premises access attempt associated with the individual at the location of the premises access attempt;

confirm, by the premises access control system, the identity of the individual based on comparing the digital identity profile of the individual with further visual data of the individual captured contemporaneously with the subsequent premises access attempt; and

wherein granting access to the entrance of the premises to the individual by the premises access control system is in response to confirming the identity of the individual based on the digital identity profile.

16. The apparatus of claim 15 , wherein the processor is further configured to track motion at the location of the premises access attempt.

17. The apparatus of claim 15 , wherein the processor is further configured to update the digital identity profile of the individual based on the further visual data of the individual captured contemporaneously with the subsequent premises access attempt.

18. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

determine whether a confidence level of the digital identity profile is higher than a threshold confidence level;

confirm, by the premises access control system, the identity of the individual based on comparing the digital identity profile of the individual with further visual data of the individual captured at a later time subsequent to the premises access attempt; and

wherein granting access to the entrance of the premises to the individual by the premises access control system is in response to confirming the identity of the individual based on the digital identity profile having the confidence level higher than the threshold confidence level.

19. The apparatus of claim 11 , wherein the processor is further configured to search for recorded footage of the individual based on the digital identity profile of the individual.

20. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions for premises access control that are executable to:

identify, by a premises access control system, a premises access attempt associated with an individual attempting to access an entrance to a premises;

confirm, by the premises access control system, an identity of the individual;

grant access to the entrance of the premises to the individual by the premises access control system in response to confirming the identity of the individual;

capture visual data of the individual at a location of the entrance of the premises, pursuant to confirming the identity of the individual; and

build, by the premises access control system, a digital identity profile of the individual based on the visual data of the individual captured at the location of the entrance of the premises.
