First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system comprising:
- a processor; and
memory in communication with the processor, with the system configured to;
collect data from personnel authentication and tracking appliances covering detection regions in various points throughout a site;
authenticate tags passing through the detection regions against an access control list that list tags having access to specific detection regions;
receive data that identifies a number of people passing through or within the detection regions;
compare the number people identified by the received data with the number of tags identified by the system;
produce paths of tags as the tags pass through various ones of the detection regions associated with the personnel authentication and tracking appliances; and
render the produced map on a rendering device of a schematic of the site depicting various paths taken by the tags.

Abstract
Disclosed are techniques to authenticate tags passing through detection regions against an access control list, receive data that identifies a number of people passing through or within the detection regions, compare the number people identified by the received data with the number of tags identified by the system, and cause an alarm to be asserted when a discrepancy is detected in the number people identified with the number of tags in a detection region with personnel within the detection region.

10. A computer implemented method comprises:
-
collecting by a computing system comprising a processor and memory, data from personnel authentication and tracking appliances that cover detection regions throughout a building; authenticating by the computing system tags passing through the detection regions against an access control list; receiving by the computing system data that identifies a number of people passing through or within the detection regions; comparing by the computing system the number people identified by the received data with the number of tags identified by the system; producing data that conveys paths of the tags, as the tags pass through the detection regions associated with the personnel authentication and tracking appliances; and rendering by the computing system on a rendering device, a map of a schematic of the building or a floor plan depicting the paths taken by one or more of the tags. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13)
