A guard enhancing multiple site, readily scalable security system combines human-based
security personnel with a diverse array of fixed and movable electronic security
enhancing components, and numerous modes of communications between said components,
including hard wired and wireless applications. The security related components
include event sensors, identification tracking for people and things, access control
devices, security guard wearable computers and hand held computers as well as embedded
data processing control and communications systems, with all sensors and sites
capable of being monitored by a designated headquarters through checkpoint data
processing components and base station components. The security system provides
better trained security guards, who are more alert and responsive, and more closely
supervised and easily scheduled, enhanced financial monitoring, more accurately
paid and expensed security services, better archived and reported security related
events, as well as being better coordinated with public agencies, enhanced safety,
and readily upgraded and integrated with existing and future technologies. The
primary goal of the system configuration is to make human security guard tour tasks
planned, controlled, monitored, recorded and paid in a highly efficient and effective manner.
