Identifying process and an automatically operated booth equipped with interblocking doors

摘要

An identifying process and a booth provided with interblocking doors operated in accordance with the process. The booth is provided with a weighing mechanism and a biometric reader placed inside of the booth, which operates in conjunction with a programmed logic unit. Critical information relating to the person who seeks to pass through the booth to a secured area is transmitted from a data card carried by the person to the programmed logic unit from an identity card reading unit, from a reading of the weight of the person and from reading of biometric data, so that after comparison of the data with that on the person's identify card, the programmed logic unit will verify if the person in transit is to be permitted entry and then command the opening and closing of the interblocking doors of the booth as well as any other desired apparatus.
