    Abstract: It is provided a lock device for controlling access to a physical space. The lock device comprises: an electronically controllable lock; and a handle comprising a fingerprint sensor for capturing a fingerprint of a finger presented to the fingerprint sensor and obtaining fingerprint data based on a captured fingerprint, wherein the handle is configured to communicate wirelessly with the electronically controllable lock to selectively control unlocking of the electronically controllable lock based on the fingerprint data. The handle is configured to identify a user from the captured fingerprint, wherein an identifier of the identified user is communicated wirelessly from the handle to the electronically controllable lock to enable the electronically controllable lock to evaluate whether to perform an unlocking action.

    Abstract: It is presented an access control device for considering whether a portable key device is located inside or outside a barrier. The access control device comprises: a first antenna being configured to be directed towards the outside of the barrier with a first antenna lobe; a second antenna being configured to be directed towards the inside of the barrier with a second antenna lobe, a gain towards the outside by the second antenna is greater than a gain towards the inside by the first antenna, and the signal strength N from the portable key device using the second antenna is greater than using the first antenna at all positions of the portable key device on the inside; and a determiner arranged to consider the portable key device to be located on the outside of the barrier only when a first signal strength of a radio signal from the portable key device received by the first antenna is greater than a second signal strength of a radio signal from the portable key device received by the second antenna.

    Abstract: It is presented a method for conditionally authenticating a user for access to a computer device, the method being performed in an access control device connected to a computer device. The method comprises the steps of: obtaining first sensor data being based on a mobile device sensing a physical movement of a user; obtaining second sensor data being based on a stationary sensor sensing a physical movement of a user; determining whether the first sensor data matches the second sensor data; and sending a match signal to the computer device when the first sensor data matches the second sensor data.

    Abstract: According to a first aspect, it is provided a method for requesting access to a physical space secured by a lock. The method is performed in a mobile device of a user and comprises the steps of: authenticating the mobile device with an authentication server, resulting in a token, being a data item, indicating one or more access groups to which the user belongs, wherein the token is cryptographically signed by the authentication server; storing the token in the mobile device; obtain a lock identifier of the lock; and transmitting an access request to an access control device, the access request comprising the token and the lock identifier.

    Abstract: It is provided a method for enabling remote unlock of a lock securing access to a physical space. The method is performed in a server and comprises the steps of: receiving, from a first mobile device, an access request to unlock a lock, wherein the request comprises an identifier of the lock and a user identifier associated with an access requester, being a user of the first mobile device; finding a remote credential device being associated with the lock; and transmitting an access request to the remote credential device, the access request comprising an identifier based on the user identifier.

    Abstract: It is provided a beacon circuit for use with electronic locks. The beacon circuit comprises a transmitter. The beacon device is configured to repetitively transmit a beacon signal to initiate subsequent communication with a receiver. The energy use for the beacon signal employs a communication channel which consumes less power than a communication channel for the subsequent communication. The beacon signal comprises an indication of time of the subsequent communication.
