Abstract:
A position sensing system and method for detecting the displacement of a door from a reference position, such as, for example, from a closed position. The system includes a magnetometer that may be operably connected to the door, and which measures positional location relative to a reference magnetic field, such as, for example, a magnetic field provided by a magnet of a lock device. The system may also include an accelerometer that detects acceleration of the door, and thereby provides an indication of when location is to be measured by the magnetometer. Measurement information from the magnetometer is used to derive a position indicator that is compared to a reference indicator, the reference indicator being associated with the reference position. Differences between the position and reference indicators may provide an indication that the door has been moved from the reference position.

Claim (Index 34):
A lock device configured to be mounted to a door having an open position, a closed position, and positions therebetween with respect to an adjacent structure defining an entryway, the lock device comprising:\n a housing configured for mounting to the door; a latch mechanism movably mounted to the housing and operable to engage the adjacent structure to retain the door in the closed position; a magnetometer structured to measure a location of the magnetometer relative to a reference magnetic field; a processing device structured to execute instructions stored on a non-transitory computer readable medium that causes the processing device to:\n receive the measured location of the magnetometer; \n derive a position indicator from the measured location of the magnetometer, wherein the position indicator indicates one of the positions of the door with respect to the adjacent structure; \n compare the position indicator to a reference indicator, the reference indicator corresponding to a location of the magnetometer with respect to the reference magnetic field when the magnetometer is at a reference position; and \n determine, based on the comparison of the position indicator to the reference indicator, whether the magnetometer is at the reference position.
