Systems and methods for tracking a person
First Claim
1. A system for associating a person with one or more wireless devices comprising:
- a first wireless reader arranged to detect a first set of wireless device identifiers at a first time and at a first location;
a second wireless reader arranged to detect a second set of wireless device identifiers at a second time and at a second location; and
a server, in electronic communication with the first and second wireless readers via a network, arranged to;
receive the first set of detected wireless device identifiers from the first wireless reader and the second set of detected wireless device identifiers from the second wireless reader;
compare the first set of wireless device identifiers with the second set of wireless device identifiers;
identify a first matching set of wireless device identifiers including matching wireless device identifiers between the first set of wireless device identifiers and the second set of wireless device identifiers; and
associate a first user identity with the first matching set of wireless device identifiers.

Abstract
The application describes systems and methods for associating a person with one or more wireless devices. The system includes a first wireless reader arranged to detect a first set of wireless device identities at a first time period and at a first location. The system also includes a second wireless reader arranged to detect second set of wireless device identities at a second time period and at a second location. The system further includes a server, in electronic communication with the first and second wireless readers via a network, arranged to: receive the first set of detected wireless device identities from the first wireless reader and the second set of detected wireless device identities from the second wireless reader; compare the first set of wireless device identities with the second set of wireless device identities; identify a first matching set of wireless device identities including matching wireless device identities between the first set of wireless device identities and the second set of wireless device identities; and associate a first user identity with the first matching set of wireless device identities.

18. A server for associating a person with one or more wireless devices comprising:
-
a communications interface configured to; receive, from a first wireless reader, a first set of wireless device identifiers detected at a first time and at a first location; receive, from a second wireless reader, a second set of wireless device identifiers detected at a second time and at a second location; and a processor configured to; compare the first set of wireless device identifiers with the second set of wireless device identifiers; identify a first matching set of wireless device identifiers including matching wireless device identifiers between the first set of wireless device identifiers and the second set of wireless device identifiers; and associate a first user identity with the first matching set of wireless device identifiers. - View Dependent Claims (19)

20. A non-transient computer readable medium containing program instructions for causing a computer to perform the method of:
-
receiving, from a first wireless reader, a first set of wireless device identifiers detected at a first time and at a first location; receiving, from a second wireless reader, a second set of wireless device identifiers detected at a second time and at a second location; comparing the first set of wireless device identifiers with the second set of wireless device identifiers; identifying a first matching set of wireless device identifiers by matching wireless device identifiers between the first set of wireless device identifiers and the second set of wireless device identifiers; and associating a first user identity with the first matching set of wireless device identifiers.
