Systems and methods for facilitating interface with an access control system
Systems and methods for facilitating interface with an access control system are disclosed. In some embodiments, a system comprises at least one processor and memory storing instructions executable by the at least one processor, the instructions when executed cause the system to obtain image data from one or more image sensors; detect, from the image data, interaction of a user with an object, wherein the object is located in a vicinity of a controlled area, and wherein the object is electromechanically independent of the access control system and the image sensors; and grant the user access to the controlled area responsive to detecting interaction between the user and the object.
1 . A system for facilitating interface with an access control system, the system comprising:
at least one processor; and
memory storing instructions executable by the at least one processor, the instructions when executed cause the system to:
obtain image data from one or more image sensors;
detect, from the image data, interaction of a user with an object, wherein the object is located in a vicinity of a controlled area, and wherein the object is electromechanically independent of the access control system and the image sensors; and
grant the user access to the controlled area responsive to detecting interaction between the user and the object.
2 . The system of claim 1 , wherein granting the user access comprises sending an activation control signal to an access control device, wherein the object is electromechanically independent of the access control device.
3 . The system of claim 2 , wherein the object is not in communication with the access control system, the image sensors, and the access control device.
4 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the instructions when executed cause the system to:
determine intent of the user to access the access point based on the interaction with the object; and
grant the user access to the controlled area responsive to determining the user intent.
5 . The system of claim 1 , wherein interaction of the user with the object comprises one or more of a user behavior or gesture.
6 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the object is a graphical representation of an input device.
7 . A method for facilitating interface with an access control system, the method being implemented in a computing system comprising at least one processor and memory storing instructions, the method comprising:
obtaining image data from one or more image sensors;
detecting, from the image data, interaction of a user with an object, wherein the object is located in a vicinity of a controlled area, and wherein the object is electromechanically independent of the access control system and the image sensors; and
granting the user access to the controlled area responsive to detecting interaction between the user and the object.
8 . The method of claim 7 , wherein granting the user access comprises sending an activation control signal to an access control device, wherein the object is electromechanically independent of the access control device.
9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the object is not in communication with the access control system, the image sensors, and the access control device.
10 . The method of claim 7 , further comprising:
determining intent of the user to access the access point based on the interaction with the object; and
granting the user access to the controlled area responsive to determining the user intent.
11 . The method of claim 7 , wherein interaction of the user with the object comprises one or more of a user behavior or gesture.
12 . The method of claim 7 , wherein the object is a graphical representation of an input device.
13 . A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing program instructions, wherein the program instructions are computer-executable to implement:
obtaining image data from one or more image sensors;
detecting, from the image data, interaction of a user with an object, wherein the object is located in a vicinity of a controlled area, and wherein the object is electromechanically independent of the access control system and the image sensors; and
granting the user access to the controlled area responsive to detecting interaction between the user and the object.
14 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 13 , wherein granting the user access comprises sending an activation control signal to an access control device, wherein the object is electromechanically independent of the access control device.
15 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 14 , wherein the object is not in communication with the access control system, the image sensors, and the access control device.
16 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 13 , wherein the program instructions are computer-executable to implement:
determining intent of the user to access the access point based on the interaction with the object; and
granting the user access to the controlled area responsive to determining the user intent.
17 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 13 , wherein the object is a graphical representation of an input device.
