TODAY’S PATENT – INTELLIGENT KEY SYSTEM 

Intelligent key system (US10269202B2) was invented by William D. Denison and patented by USPTO on April 23^rd, 2019.

Previous electronic access control devices struggled with programming non-volatile memory like EPROMs, which require parallel programming, complicating manufacturing. Additionally, assembly challenges, such as soldering and adding integrated circuit pin clips, risk interference with other circuitry, while numerous pin connections increase costs.

This invention involves managing enclosure security through microprocessors and wireless electronic keys and overseeing location-based control of field devices.

It aims to enhance electronic access control devices by ensuring secure storage of access codes, reducing components and pin connections, preventing tampering, and enabling location-based access control.
