Abstract

An AIE device and an improved method for implementing pass control is disclosed herein. The AIE device can comprise an enclosure comprising a first surface viewable to an entrant from a first surface of the enclosure, and a second surface viewable to a guard from a second surface behind the enclosure. A first screen can be mounted within the first surface. A card reader and a biometric reader can be mounted within the first surface. A second screen can be mounted within the second surface, and a warning indicator can be mounted to the enclosure.

Claims

1. An automated installation entry system comprising:

an enclosure comprising a first surface viewable to an entrant from a first surface of said enclosure, and a second surface viewable to a guard from a second surface behind said enclosure;

a first screen mounted within said first surface;

a card reader mounted within said first surface;

a biometric reader mounted within said first surface; and

a second screen mounted within said second surface.

2. The system of claim 1 wherein said biometric reader is a fingerprint scanner.

3. The system of claim 1 further comprising a camera within said enclosure capable of capturing images of said entrant.

4. The system of claim 1 further comprising a camera within said enclosure capable of capturing images of a license plate.

5. The system of claim 1, wherein said card reader comprises a card scanner capable of inputting data from an identification card.

6. The system of claim 1, further comprising a warning indicator mounted to said enclosure.

7. The system of claim 6, wherein said warning indicator comprises a light.

8. The system of claim 6, wherein said warning indicator makes an audible noise.

9. The system of claim 1 wherein said card reader is capable of reading military identification cards.

10. The system in claim 1 comprising a sensor capable of detecting the presence of a vehicle.

11. The system in claim 1 comprising an antenna mounted to a surface, said antenna connected to a transceiver inside said enclosure.

12. An improved method for implementing pass control using an automated installation entry (AIE) device comprising

receiving identification data from an identification card using an identification card reader mounted to a first surface of an enclosure;

receiving biometric data from a biometric data reader mounted to said first surface of said enclosure;

searching for a profile within a memory that comprises an identification data and said biometric data;

activating a warning signal on a warning indicator, said warning indicator mounted to a second surface of said enclosure, if said entrant associated with profile is not authorized to enter; and

granting entry to a facility, if said entrant associated with said profile is authorized to enter.

13. The method of claim 12, wherein said biometric data comprises fingerprint data.

14. The method of claim 13, wherein said fingerprint data comprises 2 fingers.

15. The method of claim 13, wherein said fingerprint data comprises 3 fingers.

16. The method of claim 12 further comprising capturing an image of a person with a camera mounted to said enclosure

17. The method of claim 12 further comprising capturing an image of a license plate using a camera mounted to said enclosure.

18. A computer readable storage medium having a computer readable program code embodied therein, wherein the computer readable program code is adapted to be executed to implement the method of claim 12.
