摘要:
There is provided an apparatus and method for determining health effect of a selected product, or products(s) providing a selected health effect. The apparatus comprises a database of products and associated health effects; an input for a user to input the selected product or selected health effect; a processor for determining health effect of the selected product from the database and/or for determining product(s) from the database providing the selected health effect; and an output for outputting information to the user. The method comprises the steps of providing a database of products and associated health effects; inputting the selected product or selected health effect into a user input; determining health effect of the selected product from the database, or product(s) from the database providing the selected health effect; and outputting information to the user.

A RF transaction device is provided, which is operable to store a private label transaction account identifier associated with a private label transaction account. The invention further includes a RF operable reader in communication with a private label transaction processing system. The RF transaction device communicates with the reader to provide the private label transaction account identifier to the transaction processing system. As such, the invention provides a RF transaction device which may be used to complete a transaction using RF frequency in a contactless environment.

The present invention relates to a process for producing an irregularly shaped Radio Frequency operable transaction device using conventional International Standards Organization dimensions for conventional transaction cards. The invention provides for normal manufacture of a plurality of transaction cards joined together in a single sheet. The outline of a RFID transaction device is impressed in a center portion of one of the transaction cards. A RFID transaction device may then be removed, or punched out of the transaction card in accordance with the transaction device outline.

A RF transaction device is provided, which is operable to store multiple distinct data sets owned by unrelated data set owners, wherein the distinct data sets may include differing formats. The method includes the steps of: adding, by a read/write, a first data set to the RF transaction device, wherein the first data set is owned by a first owner; adding, by the read/write device, a second data set to the RF transaction device, wherein the second data set is owned by a second owner; and storing the first data set and the second data set on the RF transaction device in accordance with an owner defined format. The first and second data sets may each be stored as a Block of Binary. The first and second data sets are associated with first and second owners, respectively, and are configured to be stored independent of each other and in accordance with the particular data set storage protocol.

摘要:
A method for registering biometric information for use in a transponder-reader system is disclosed. The method includes steps of detecting, verifying and storing a proferred biometric sample. During detecting, a sensor detects a proffered biometric to obtain a biometric sample. During the verifying step, the biometric sample is compared with other stored samples and/or other information. During the storing step, the biometric sample is stored on a database, for use by the transponder-reader system in authorizing transactions.
摘要:
An atomic absorption spectrometer is disclosed which includes a monochromater and an optical path defined by a toric mirror, a flat mirror, a flat mirror, a flat mirror, a toric mirror, and a further toric mirror. The toric mirror directs light through entrance slit of the monochromater so that radiation is reflected from diffraction grating and out exit slit to a detector. A sample stage in the form of a furnace is located between the mirrors. The monochromater is oriented so that the entrance slit is arranged transverse to the vertical. In one arrangement, a magnifying means is also provided which magnifies an image of the aperture at the sample station to increase the amount of radiation which is focused at the sample stage, and which is passed through the aperture to the detector or a focusing element provided by one of the mirrors may be provided for focusing radiation at a location other than sample station so an enlarged out of focus image of the entrance slit is produced at the sample station to increase the amount of radiation which passes through the slit and is received by the detector.
摘要:
A system and method for providing incentives at a merchant location for using a RF identification (RFID) transaction device for transaction completion is provided. An RFID transaction device account number includes a marker for identifying that the transaction is being completed using an RFID transaction device. A merchant system recognizes the marker and provides incentives to the RFID device user accordingly. In one embodiment, the incentives are provided to an RFID device user in real-time. Alternatively, the merchant system may provide the incentives to the customer at a later time. Further still, incentives may be provided to the user based on a prior transaction history, user profile, or any other data related to the user, user account, merchant, product or service.
