Abstract in simplified Chinese:本发明描述用于进入指定的支付区域(例如大众运输系统)的免手持或无票的收费系统(100、200)。通勤者借由脸部辨识子例程(144)来识别,通勤者身份根据姓名、性别、出生日期、种族、身高、授权群组等进行额外拆分并存储在ID类别中。根据不同的ID类别拆分通勤者身份,允许快速、准确地识别通勤者ID数据库(160)中的通勤者,且允许从保存在各别通勤者帐户数据库(170)中的通勤者帐户处扣款。通勤者可以携带长距离RFID卡(119b)以允许更快的通勤者识别。
Abstract in simplified Chinese:一种用于进出闸的屏障,其允许或限制用户进入一区域或空间。该屏障包括一金属底框架;架设在该金属底框架上的一马达总成,其中该马达总成包括一电动马达及一齿轮总成,该马达总成具有用以控制该电动马达的一集成的控制单元;备有一似翼形状的挡板的一屏障挡板,该挡板以其一下端枢接在该金属底框架上,其中该屏障挡板操作地为该马达总成所致动,俾以沿着一水平轴,在打开及关闭位置之间绕着该下端枢转,该屏障挡板借由在一多杆连杆组中的一初级杆件及一二级杆件连接至该马达总成;以及一引导支持部,其自该金属底框架向上地朝该屏障挡板的一上端延伸,并与其接合,该引导支持部具有一导轨,其用以支持且沿着该水平轴引导该屏障挡板的上端,其中该初级杆件的一端被该马达总成所驱动,而该二级杆件连接在该初级杆件及该屏障挡板之间。
Abstract:
A method and apparatus measuring the temperature of an object (such as a person), comprising creating image data corresponding to an image of the object by means of the infrared camera (12) and representable as a greyscale image (14) of the object, establishing a temperature calibration for the greyscale image, and deducing the temperature from the greyscale image and the temperature calibration. The image (14) may be outputted in colour coded (18) or greyscale form so that the temperature can be ascertained visually at one or more portions of the object.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a train platform screen door (PSD) system (100) independent from the train signaling system. The PSD system (100) includes a train positioning system (TPS) (140) and a position sensor (PS) (142, 142a). The PS (142, 142a) emits three curtain beams (L1-L3), with each curtain beam being in a plane for detecting a head or end of a train pulling in at a station. The PS (142, 142a) outputs signals to drive a set of indicator lights (N1-N3) to indicate distances of alignment of the train doors with the associated screen doors (30).
Abstract:
The present invention describes access gates (100a, 100b, etc.) for controlling human traffic, with each gate being configured with a pair of vertically rotatable flap barriers (154), which are trapezoid-shaped. The height of the trapezoid is substantially a width of a cabinet for housing the flap barriers (154) and associated linkage and drive mechanisms. The access gates (100a, 100b, etc.) are configured with passage widths of 50, 70, 90 and 110 cm; for access gates with passage widths of 70-110 cm, each flap barrier (154) has a supplementary flap (157) that is actuated to rotate in a non-telescoping manner and at a speed lagging behind the rotary motion of the flap barriers (154).
Abstract:
The invention comprises a monitoring and incident management system for an aircraft including an on-board system on the aircraft, an incident management center on the ground, and a redundant secure commWlications link between the on-board system and the incident management center. The on-board system includes components that assist the aircraft crew in identifying and defending against potential threats to the aircraft, such as suspicious passenger activity. The incident management has access to a wide variety of information concerning the aircraft and activities taking place on the aircraft, as well as the ability to transmit commands to the on-board system. The on-board system includes a cockpit door module that combines double-doors and biometric identification to prevent unauthorized access to the cockpit.
Abstract:
The present invention describes a hands-free or ticketless fare collection system (100, 200) for a entering a designated pay area, such as a mass transit system. Commuters are identified by a face recognition subroutine (144) and commuter identities are additional split up and stored in ID categories according to name, gender, date of birth, race, height, privilege group and so on. Splitting up the commuter identities under different ID categories allow quick and accurate identification of commuters in the commuter ID database (160) and deduction of payment from the commuters account kept in the respective commuter accounts database (170). A commuter may carry a long range RFID card (119b) to allow for even quicker commuter identification.
