    摘要: Systems for item validation and image evaluation are provided. In some examples, a system may receive an instrument and associated data. The instrument may be received and at least one of a bill pay profile and a user profile may be retrieved. The bill pay profile and user profile may each include a plurality of previously processed instruments that have been determined to be valid and/or authentic. The instrument may be compared to the plurality of previously processed instruments to determine whether one or more elements of the instrument being evaluated match one or more corresponding elements of the plurality of previously processed instruments. Matching or non-matching elements may be identified. In some examples, one or more user interfaces may be generated displaying the instruments and including any highlighting or enhancements identifying matching or non-matching elements.

    摘要: Various embodiments include a hazard detector comprising: a microphone configured to record an audio signal; a hazard sensor; a detection circuit connected to the hazard sensor; and a processing unit connected to the detection circuit and the microphone. The detection circuit receives signals from the hazard sensor and generates a signal as a function thereof. The processing unit comprises a digital interface for communication with an external computer and is configured: to receive the detector signal from the detection circuit; to receive the audio signal from the microphone and to detect a predetermined preamble comprising a word in the audio signal; and if the detector signal contains a positive indication with respect to a hazard or if a predetermined preamble is detected in the audio signal, to generate a output signal as a function of the received signal and send the output signal to the computer via the interface.

    摘要: The present disclosure describes a method and computerized means for creating dynamically evolving moiré shapes on curved surfaces. The method applies geometrical transformations in order to obtain curvilinear moirés and creates the moirés on curved surfaces by applying mappings from planar space to 3D space. The method relies on the superposition of a base layer with base bands and of a revealing layer with sampling elements. The dimensions of the revealing layer sampling elements such as cylindrical or spherical lenses as well as the distances between the base and revealing layer surfaces are adapted to the space between neighbouring isoparametric lines that define the curved surface. The resulting moiré shapes evolve smoothly on the specified curved surface and show recognizable shapes such as words, letters, numbers, flags, logos, graphic motifs, drawings, clip art, and faces.

    摘要: A valuable medium handling apparatus configured to handle a plurality of types of valuable media. The valuable medium handling apparatus includes an inlet configured to deposit the plurality of types of valuable media, a setting unit configured to set the types of the valuable media being handled by the apparatus as a first type or a second type, a determination unit configured to determine whether a type of each of the valuable media deposited in the inlet is the first type or the second type based on the setting result of the setting unit and determine whether the valuable medium determined as the first type is a genuine medium or a counterfeit medium, and a plurality of stackers configured to stack the valuable medium of the type determined by the determination unit, the plurality of stackers including a first stacker and a second stacker.
