A smart detacher includes a detacher and an RFID reader. The smart detacher may be a handheld detacher or a secondary detacher. A method of monitoring using a security tag with an RFID chip therein and an detacher having an RFID reader operably connected thereto comprising the steps of: writing information onto the RFID chip; attaching the security tag to a product; detaching the security tag from the product and reading the information on the RFID chip; and forwarding the information to a control system.

An information processing device, an information processing system, a control method for an information processing device, and a program can detect POS terminal operations without modifying the POS terminal (1). An output data acquisition unit (21) acquires output data that is output from a POS terminal (1). An operation determination unit (22) evaluates the operation of the POS terminal (1) based on the acquired output data. A data conversion unit (23) converts the result from the operation determination unit (22) to data in a specific format that can be interpreted by a store management server (5). A converted data output unit (24) outputs the converted data converted by the data conversion unit (23) to the store management server (5).
摘要:
An item checkout apparatus with integrated complimentary antennas which concentrates magnetic fields from both antennas in a volume. The item checkout apparatus includes a sensor for sensing a label on an item, a first antenna oriented in a first plane, and a second antenna oriented in a second plane substantially orthogonal to the first plane, wherein the first and second antennas concentrate first and second magnetic fields in a volume between the first and second antennas, and wherein the sensor is coupled to at least one of the first and second antennas and senses the label as the item passes through the volume.

A method of providing security to an assisted retail terminal having a security weight scale associated therewith includes the step of generating an item-entered control signal when a product code associated with an item of a customer is entered into the retail terminal by retail personnel. The method also includes the step of detecting placement of the item by the retail personnel into a post-scan area associated with the retail terminal with the security weight scale and generating a detection control signal in response thereto. Moreover, the method includes the step of generating an invalid-use control signal if the detection control signal is generated prior to generation of the item-entered control signal. An assisted retail terminal is also disclosed.
摘要:
When an automatic transaction apparatus detects an abnormality (S1), an image obtained (S2) at the time the abnormality occurred is displayed (S4) on a screen 2 of the automatic transaction apparatus. Thus, since a security guard who arrives immediately after the abnormality occurred can view the displayed image and obtain information, such as the appearance of the face and the clothing worn by a criminal, which can assist in the identification of a perpetrator, the probability that the criminal will be found can be increased. As a result, since a crime prevention function of the automatic transaction apparatus has been enhanced, an increase in the occurrence of such crimes can be prevented.

A method of providing security for a self-service checkout terminal (10) includes the step of determining a time-of-day value and a day-of-week value. The terminal then operates at a first security level if (i) the time-of-day value is within a first predetermined time-of-day range and (ii) the day-of-week value is within a first predetermined day-of-week range, and operates at a second security level if (i) the time-of-day value is within a second predetermined time-of-day range and (ii) the day-of-week value is within a second predetermined day-of-week range.
摘要:
An electronic article security system (10) monitors articles (12) sold by a retail store (16) to detect shrinkage. The articles (12) are tagged with RF-ID security tags (22). Each security tag (22) has a unique or semi-unique serial number for identifying individual products. Transaction records (36) generated from point-of-sale terminals in the store are sent to a remote computer (38). An interrogator (42) and surveillance camera (58) are positioned near the store exit. When an article (12) having the RF-ID security tag (22) is detected as passing through the store exit, the interrogator outputs a signal derived from the security tag (22). The output signal includes the security tag serial number. Also, the camera (58) takes an image of the person moving the tagged article through the exit. The interrogator output signal is sent to the remote computer (38). The remote computer (38) periodically compares the transaction records (36) with the interrogator output signals to detect any discrepancies therebetween. The discrepancies are investigated by viewing the captured video images near the time of the discrepancies.
摘要:
A surveillance system which can store and replay information which is not generated contemporaneously. In some point-of-sale systems, the behavioral events occur before the transaction data is generated. The present system uses an independently generated synchronizing signal which is recorded with the video signals corresponding to the behavioral events and the transaction signal corresponding to the transaction events. Upon playback, the transaction data is matched up with the behavioral event being replayed from the video tape by utilizing the synchronizing signals stored with each signal.
