Patent Images
1. A method for identifying an asset, the method comprising:
- receiving, via one or more processors, image data captured of an asset;
after capturing the image data of the asset, identifying, via the one or more processors, the asset based at least in part on the captured image data;
determining, via the one or more processors, whether the asset is authorized for one or more activities, the determination based at least in part on the identity of the asset; and
after a determination that the asset is authorized for the one or more activities, generating, via the one or more processors, an instruction to one or more perceivable indicators to initiate a perceivable indication that the asset is authorized for the one or more activities.

Abstract
Systems, methods, apparatus, and computer program products are provided for identifying assets (e.g., mobile assets and/or personnel assets). In one embodiment, a mobile asset can be uniquely identified from RFID tags. In another embodiment, mobile assets and personnel assets can be identified from captured image data. After identification, it can be determined whether the asset (e.g., mobile asset and/or personnel asset) is authorized for one or more activities and a corresponding perceivable indication can be generated.

11. An apparatus comprising at least one processor and at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the processor, cause the apparatus to at least:
-
receive image data captured of an asset; after capturing the image data of the asset, identify the asset based at least in part on the captured image data; determine whether the asset is authorized for one or more activities, the determination based at least in part on the identity of the asset; and after a determination that the asset is authorized for the one or more activities, generate an instruction to one or more perceivable indicators to initiate a perceivable indication that the asset is authorized for the one or more activities. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)

21. A computer program product for identifying an asset, the computer program product comprising at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer-readable program code portions stored therein, the computer-readable program code portions comprising:
-
an executable portion configured to receive image data captured of an asset; an executable portion configured to, after capturing the image data of the asset, identify the asset based at least in part on the captured image data; an executable portion configured to determine whether the asset is authorized for one or more activities, the determination based at least in part on the identity of the asset; and an executable portion configured to, after a determination that the asset is authorized for the one or more activities, generate an instruction to one or more perceivable indicators to initiate a perceivable indication that the asset is authorized for the one or more activities. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30)
