    摘要: The present invention is directed to game cards and systems for tracking game cards. A computer tracking system is used which includes game or lottery type cards which must be activated to be eligible for a particular game or event. The activation step includes reading of a unique serial number or other identification code uniquely identifying the card. With this system, surplus game cards can be disposed of when they have not been activated. This simplifies tracking of sales of game cards and simplifies the distribution of funds to various parties in the sale and distribution chain.

    摘要: A card reader stores the energy imparted by a user inserting a card into a slot. When the card is fully inserted, a release mechanism is triggered and the stored energy moves a read head over a coded stripe. In the preferred embodiment, a torsion spring mounted on a carriage winds about an axle. The axle has a gear at one end which engages a rack fixed on the base of the reader. The gear and axle rotate as the carriage is moved relative to the reader, thereby winding the torsion spring and storing energy. A set of ratchet teeth mounted on the base prevents the return of the carriage before the card is fully inserted into the slot. The reader can also accommodate reading and writing to smart cards.

    摘要: A secure terminal is disclosed which has a single keypad and display which is suitable as a debit terminal, as both confidential and nonconfidential information can be entered. Confidential information is entered in secure text mode whereas nonconfidential information is entered in clear text mode. The terminal defaults to secure text mode where all information is encrypted. In clear text mode all prompts are independently authenticated by a secure module prior to displaying of the prompt. Prompts for clear text mode are preprogrammed preferably with an Authentication Parameter which is confirmed by the secure module whenever that prompt is used in clear text mode. The invention is also directed to the methods for rendering a terminal and system secure for receiving confidential and nonconfidential information.
