Video still frames with highest facial detection scores are matched and displayed to a security operator console with identity indicia retrieved upon a credential submission event from a physical access control system. An apparatus couples a security operator console to a surveillance camera at a physical access control portal. A video clip containing a frame with highest facial detection score of all frames captured in propinquity to the time of credential submission, is matched to and displayed with the identity indicia. Credentials from a group of people entering together are presented to a security officer console along with video clips simultaneously containing a plurality of faces or perspectives which may be accepted en masse or in part. Time shifting still frames to reconcile with credential submission time stamps concentrates content in a display console. The apparatus retrieves and presents identity indicia in conjunction with a face in the selected frame.

In one embodiment of the present invention, a system for access to an unattended storage device is described. The system includes a first transmitter for placing an order for an item with a merchant; a second transmitter for transmitting a request for a pick-up of the item; a tracking information generator for generating tracking information in response to a request for a pick-up of the item; a transceiver for receiving and transmitting the tracking information; a memory for storing the tracking information; a third transmitter for transmitting the tracking information to a storage device a comparator for comparing the tracking information transmitted to the storage device to the tracking information stored in the memory; and a digital signature generator for creating a digital signature. In another embodiment of the present invention, a method of providing remote access to a storage device is described. The method includes the steps of transmitting tracking information to a storage device; and gaining access to an interior of the storage device if the tracking information transmitted to the storage device matches tracking information stored in a memory.
