Rf signal-based surveillance system for identifying unauthorized persons/devices
A computerized non-visible signal-based surveillance system has been granted a patent (Publication Number: US11995170B2). The system includes a computerized subsystem with sensors that sense RF signals emitted within a predetermined range, associating these signals to generate unique identifiers. An alert generating subsystem then uses these identifiers to identify unauthorized individuals or devices in a transactional environment. The system can also sense the persistence of RF signals and detect the presence of beacons based on signal thresholds, enhancing security measures.
Furthermore, the system integrates outputs from cameras and POS devices to create individual identifiers, allowing for the identification of individuals solely based on RF signals. A welcome annunciator subsystem can then provide personalized messages to recognized individuals. The system also includes a signal origin ascertaining subsystem that can differentiate between various types of RF signals and provide short-range and long-range identification of mobile devices. Additionally, a computerized non-visible signal-based surveillance method has been patented, outlining the process of associating RF signals, detecting unauthorized entities based on unique identifiers, and annunciating welcome messages to recognized individuals, showcasing the innovative approach to surveillance in transactional environments.
