    Abstract: Various systems and methods for providing discovering smart card slots in a device are described herein. A server device for discovering smart card slots in a client device may be implemented with a processor subsystem; and memory including instructions, which when executed by the processor subsystem, cause the processor subsystem to perform operations comprising: receiving, at the server device from the client device, over an established Bluetooth connection, smart card connector parameters, the client device having a plurality of smart card slots; iterating through the plurality of smart card slots; at each slot of the plurality of smart card slots, using a smart card protocol to attempt to access an application at each slot, the application pre-associated with the server device; and in response to identifying the application exists in a slot of the plurality of smart card slots, connecting with the application.

    Abstract: A reader device of a physical access control system includes an ultra-wide band (UWB) physical layer and processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is operatively coupled to the UWB physical layer and is configured to: receive access credential information from a separate second device; receive ranging information from the second device; grant access through a physical portal according to the access credential information and ranging information; determine a number of people intending to pass through the physical portal; and generate an indication according to the determined number.

    Abstract: Systems and techniques for a physical access control systems with localization-based intent detection are described herein. In an example, an access control system may regulate access to an asset. The access control system is adapted to establish a first connection with a key-device. The access control system may be further adapted to receive a credential for a user over the first connection. The access control system may be further adapted to establish a second connection with the key-device. The access control system may be further adapted to determine an intent of the user to access the asset. The access control system may use location data derived from the second connection to determine the intent of the user. The access control system may be further adapted to provide the credential to an access controller, based on identifying an intent of the user to access the asset.

    Abstract: A method of operating a seamless physical access control system comprises transferring communication session information using an out-of-band (OOB) communication channel of a smart ultra-wide band (UWB) capable device; establishing a secure OOB communication channel between the smart UWB capable device and a reader device using the communication session information; determining that a UWB enabled application of the smart UWB capable device needs secure ranging; establishing a secure UWB communication channel between the smart UWB capable device and the reader device; and transferring ranging information from a secure component of the smart UWB capable device to the reader device via the secure UWB communication channel.
