A movable user entry device for an access control includes an internal power source and a communication unit configured to wirelessly connect the user entry device to an external system. An access system for an access control includes an external system and at least one movable user entry device.
1. A movable user entry device for an access control, wherein the movable user entry device comprises:
access control related data for identifying users having access via the movable user entry device, wherein the movable user entry device is configured to allow only access of the users identified by the access control related data via the movable user entry device;
an internal power source; and
a communication unit configured to wirelessly connect the user entry device to an external system,
wherein the moveable use entry device is configured to:
perform a pairing procedure by transferring a device data of the movable user entry device to an external system, and linking the device data of the movable user entry device to an access database of the external system;
determine location data representing a current location of the movable user entry device;
transfer the location data representing the current location of the user entry device to the external system; and
update the access control related data after the user entry device is relocated from a previous location to the current location according to the linking of the movable user entry device with the access database of the external system and the determined location data, such that users that are identified by the updated access control related data to have access via the movable user entry device are associated with the new location of the movable user entry device, and after the access control related data is updated, the movable user entry device is configured to allow only access of the users identified by the updated access control related data via the movable user entry device.
2. The movable user entry device according to claim 1 , further comprising an internal access database comprising the access control related data and/or the user entry device is configured to obtain the access control related data from an external access database.
3. The movable user entry device according to claim 2 , wherein the wireless connection between the user entry device and the external system is implemented via a cloud server.
4. The movable user entry device according to claim 1 , wherein the wireless connection between the user entry device and the external system is based on at least one of the following wireless communication technologies: a wireless local area network (WLAN), a wireless personal area network (PAN), and/or a cellular network.
5. The movable user entry device according to claim 4 , configured to perform the pairing procedure with the external system to provide the wireless connection, when the wireless connection is based on the wireless personal area network.
6. The movable user entry device according to claim 4 , wherein the wireless connection between the user entry device and the external system is implemented via a cloud server.
7. The movable user entry device according to claim 1 , wherein the wireless connection between the user entry device and the external system is implemented via a cloud server.
8. The movable user entry device according to claim 1 , configured to:
determine location data representing a current location of the user entry device;
obtain the location data from the external system; and/or
obtain the location data as a user input.
9. The movable user entry device according to claim 8 , wherein the determination of the location data is based on a wireless indoor positioning technology.
10. The movable user entry device according to claim 1 , further comprising a motor configured to move the user entry device.
11. The movable user entry device according to claim 10 , further comprising a remote-control unit configured to remotely control the movement of the user entry device.
12. The movable user entry device according to claim 1 , further comprising at least one imaging device configured to obtain temperature data of users accessing via the user entry device.
13. The movable user entry device according to claim 1 , further comprising at least one imaging device configured to obtain identification data for facial recognition-based access control via the user entry device.
14. The movable user entry device according to claim 1 , wherein the user entry device is a physical gate device or a sensor-based user entry device.
15. The movable user entry device according to claim 1 , wherein the external system is at least one of an elevator system, an escalator system, an access control system, and a building related system.
16. An access system for an access control, wherein the access system comprises:
an external system; and
at least one movable user entry device comprising:
access control related data for identifying users having access via the at least one movable user entry device, wherein the at least one movable user entry device is configured to allow only access of the users identified by the access control related data via the at least one movable user entry device;
an internal power source; and
a communication unit configured to wirelessly connect the at least one moveable user entry device to an external system,
wherein the at least one moveable use entry device is configured to:
perform a pairing procedure by transferring a device data of the at least one movable user entry device to an external system, and linking the device data of the at least one movable user entry device to an access database of the external system;
determine location data representing a current location of the at least one movable user entry device;
transfer the location data representing the current location of the at least one movable user entry device to the external system; and
update the access control related data after the at least one movable user entry device is relocated from a previous location to the current location according to the linking of the at least one movable user entry device with the access database of the external system and the determined location data, such that users that are identified by the updated access control related data to have access via the at least one movable user entry device are associated with the new location of the at least one movable user entry device, and after the access control related data is updated, the at least one movable user entry device is configured to allow only access of the users identified by the updated access control related data via the at least one movable user entry device.
17. The movable user entry device according to claim 2 , wherein the wireless connection between the user entry device and the external system is based on at least one of the following wireless communication technologies: a wireless local area network (WLAN), a wireless personal area network (PAN), and/or a cellular network.
