摘要:
A technique capable of preventing an increase in the load of a system and a IP-based network that perform both a process of transmitting information in real time and a process of storing and searching history information and of improving the scalability of the system. A video surveillance system includes: plural cameras that capture images; a monitoring apparatus that displays the images captured by the cameras; an information generating apparatus that generates information for searching the images captured by the cameras; and a search apparatus that searches the images captured by the cameras. The information generating apparatus acquires the images captured by the cameras, generates retrieval data from the acquired images, and transmits the generated retrieval data to the search apparatus. The search apparatus stores the retrieval data received from the information generating apparatus in a storage device, and notifies the monitoring apparatus that the retrieval data has been stored.

The type and number of denomination of notes and the identification method of authentic notes differs for every country. The development of such identification device for these currencies in each country increases the manufacturing cost, and the processing time increases when the types of notes to be authenticated are increased. The present invention provides a paper sheet identifier device, which includes a main board for operating common processes independent from specific notes and sub-boards in parallel operation, allowing sub-boards connected to the main board to be added or replaced in accordance with the type and number of denomination of notes in a country along with the authentication method. The present invention improves the processing speed by parallelizing the identification processes, and the efficiency of updating the device specification when a new note is issued.
摘要:
An address reader method and apparatus for recognizing a receiver address on a surface of mail. In the invention an image of the surface of the mail is input and segmented into at least one character string candidate. At least one address area candidate is extracted from the image based upon the segmented character string candidate. One of the address area candidates extracted from the image is selected as a receiver address of the mail by analyzing each of the address area candidates based on predetermined position information indicating a usual position of a receiver address area, character direction information indicating a character direction of a character string appropriate for the predetermined position information, and key character string information indicating a character string most likely to exist in a receiver address. Characters in character strings of the selected address area candidate are recognized as a receiver address which is used to sort the mail.

A system and method are provided for tracing bank notes or, specifically, counterfeit money. In one example of the tracing system, an automatic teller machine (ATM) electronically connected to one or more devices is provided. The one or more devices comprise a deposit device configured to receive an initial bank note; an image extraction device configured to extract one or more initial images from the initial bank note; a transaction log device configured to attach a transaction log to the one or more initial images, wherein the deposit device is further configured to receive a subsequent bank note, wherein the image extraction device is further configured to extract one or more subsequent images from the subsequent bank note; and a comparison device configured to compare the one or initial images to the one or more subsequent images in order to obtain a comparison result.
摘要:
A transmit-side transmission control device for sending data generated by a data generator device to a data utilization point receives and retains notification of the allowable data transmission quantity from a receive-side transmission control device, and adjusts the data quantity sent from the data generator device so as to fit within that allowable data transmission quantity range, and/or when a request is issued to change that data transmission quantity, the receive-side transmission control device is notified of that allowable data transmission quantity change request. The receive-side transmission control device retains the respective allowable data transmission quantities for transmit-side transmission control device, and when a change request is issued, reallocates the allowable data transmission quantities for all transmit-side transmission control devices to fit within the data processing load range stored beforehand within the data utilization point, and notifies the corresponding transmit-side transmission control device of these reallocated allowable data transmission quantities.
摘要:
A goods genuineness/counterfeit discrimination method using a plurality of IC tags each having functions of storing genuineness/counterfeit discrimination information and transmitting the genuineness/counterfeit discrimination information and a genuineness/counterfeit discrimination equipment for receiving the genuineness/counterfeit discrimination information from the IC tags to use it for genuineness/counterfeit discrimination, the method including: reading, by means of the genuineness/counterfeit discrimination equipment, information stored in one or more IC tags mounted on goods on which a first predetermined number of IC tags are mounted; and discriminating genuineness/counterfeit of the goods by determining, by means of the genuineness/counterfeit discrimination equipment, whether or not partial information is identical to each other among genuineness/counterfeit discrimination information read from IC tags equal to or more than a second predetermined number of IC tags mounted on the goods, the second predetermined number being smaller than the first predetermined number.
摘要:
The invention relates to a mobile device with a built-in image capture device, and a character recognition function to present the information gathered with the character recognition result. With the mobile device, the character line extraction process is displayed whenever necessary, and the resolution of an image to be inputted for recognition processing is enhanced. Accordingly, it is possible for the operator to select the target character line with ease. In addition, the mobile device has a character recognition ratio improved by the enhancement in resolution.

摘要:
In goods genuineness/counterfeit discrimination using IC tags, contradictory problems of the reliability and lifetime of the IC tags and the accuracy of goods genuineness/counterfeit discrimination are solved and circulation of goods mounted with defective IC tags is prevented. A ratio of a number of IC tags having sent information indicative of the fact that the IC tags are mounted on the same object member to a number of IC tags from which the information is to be sent originally is determined and the genuineness/counterfeit discrimination is performed with the ratio. With regard to adopting a combination of genuineness/counterfeit discrimination, information necessary for detection is added to goods and information of the inspection area is stored in the IC tags. When the number of defective IC tags is large, goods mounted with the IC tags is collected.
