Remote actuation system, device and method
First Claim
1. A wireless portable terminal for operation in concert with a controller within a property, the terminal comprising:
- a biometric transducer for accepting a biometric information sample provided by a user and for generating digital data based on at least a characteristic of the biometric information sample;
a data store for storing the digital data generated by the biometric transducer; and
, a transmitter being responsive to the digital data having been stored in the data store for transmitting a signal, at a predetermined frequency and modulated based on the stored digital data for reception by the controller, after an interval of time corresponding to a time for the user carrying the wireless portable terminal to have traveled a distance, such that the user may present a predetermined biometric characteristic at a convenient place and time prior to the time of a consequent effect thereof at said property.

Abstract
In a remote keyless system, a fob is disclosed, which provides the user with selective control of elements in a property in concert with a controller at the property, while the fob is nearby the property. In one example the fob is a wireless portable terminal, which accepts a biometric information having been presented by a user. A transducer generates a digital data based on the biometric information. A data store receives and stores the digital data generated by the transducer. A transmitter is responsive to the digital data having been stored in the data store for broadcasting a signal, at a predetermined frequency and modulated by the stored digital data for reception by the controller, after an interval of time corresponding to a time for the user carrying the wireless portable terminal to have traveled a distance, such that the user may present a predetermined biometric characteristic at a convenient place and time prior to the time of a consequent effect thereof at said property.

17. A method of operating a wireless portable terminal for communicating with a controller within a property, upon a presentation of a user'"'"'s biometric characteristic thereto, comprising the steps of:
-
accepting a biometric information having been presented by a user;
generating a digital data representative of the biometric information;
storing the digital data having been generated; and
,responsive to the digital data having been stored and after an interval of time corresponding to a time for the user of the entry terminal to have traveled a distance, broadcasting a signal, at a predetermined frequency being modulated based on the stored digital data for reception by the controller, such that the user may present a predetermined biometric characteristic at a convenient place and time prior to the time of a consequent effect thereof at said property. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)

28. A wireless portable terminal for operation in concert with a controller within a property, the terminal comprising:
-
a transducer for accepting input data provided by a user and for generating digital data based on the input data;
a data store for storing the digital data generated by the biometric transducer; and
,a transmitter being responsive to the digital data having been stored in the data store for transmitting a signal, at a predetermined frequency and modulated based on the stored digital data for reception by the controller, after an interval of time corresponding to a time for the user carrying the wireless portable terminal to have traveled a distance, such that the user may present a predetermined biometric characteristic at a convenient place and time prior to the time of a consequent effect thereof at said property.
