    摘要: A foldable sales terminal includes at least one sale operation interface and a mainframe module. The sale operation interface is a flat panel, and the outward surface thereof is provided with a touch display panel. The sale operation interface is connected to the mainframe module via a pivot connection portion. The mainframe module is provided with a mainboard disposed therein and one side, away from the pivot connection portion, of the mainframe module has an output/input connection port, so that the sale operation interface and the mainframe module can rotate relative to each other to change the angle therebetween, allow the sale operation interface fold to cover inward the mainframe or open outwards far away from the mainframe. The design is simple and effective, such that the sales terminal can be folded to reduce the volume thereof for conveniently packaging, storing, carrying, and transporting the sales terminal.

    摘要: A point-of-sale (POS) device includes a processor, a battery, a transaction object reader, a printer with a printer controller, and optionally a temperature sensor. The processor determines a present power discharge capability rate of the battery, optionally based on a temperature measured by the temperature sensor. The processor also calculates a first estimated power draw rate based on a first setting value for at least one of the components of the POS device, such as the printer. If the first estimated power draw rate is dangerously close to the present power discharge capability rate of the battery, a second estimated power draw rate is calculated based on a second setting value for the one or more components. If the second estimated power draw rate is no longer dangerously close to the present power discharge capability rate of the battery, the components are set to the second settings value.

    摘要: A settlement system with higher security which replaces a settlement system using credit cards is provided. The settlement system has a user terminal, a settlement device, and a settlement terminal. First, a user ID, a password, and upper limit amount information identifying an amount are inputted in a user terminal 100 (S912), and sent to the settlement device (S913). The settlement device performs credit determination (S922), generates temporary permission information if credit is possible (S923), and sends the temporary permission information to the user terminal (S924). The user terminal generates a one-time password (S915). The one-time password is inputted to the settlement terminal (S931). If the one-time password sent from the settlement terminal to the settlement device is identical to the one-time password created in the settlement device, the settlement device allows a user's payment (S928).

    摘要: A cannabis tracking assembly for tracking the progress of cannabis products through a retail chain includes a tracking unit that can be manipulated by a user in a cannabis retail environment. The tracking unit is actuatable to scan identifying data from cannabis products received from a manufacturer and cannabis products sold to customers. In this way the tracking unit can track the cannabis products throughout the retail distribution chain. Additionally, the tracking unit has point of sale capabilities to process payments received from retail customers of the cannabis products. The tracking unit is in remote communication with a remote data storage device to transfer data to and from the remote data storage device.

    摘要: Hardware controls associated with features of a scanner are removed, and a combined scanner and transaction terminal is provided without the hardware controls. Operations associated with the removed hardware controls are graphically depicted as selectable window options within scanner-generated windows. The scanner generated windows are provided as a projected human interface for the missing hardware controls. The projected human interface is provided with and accessible from a display that includes transaction windows produced by transaction software of the transaction terminal, such that the selectable window options are always accessible from the display during transaction processing performed by the transaction software.

    摘要: Systems and methods for providing merchant/customer interaction include determining that a tablet computer is in a merchant orientation, retrieving merchant product information according to a received instruction and merchant orientation information, and displaying a merchant screen on the tablet computer that includes the merchant product information according to the merchant orientation information. A change in the orientation of the tablet computer enclosure/stand is then detected from the merchant orientation to a customer orientation. In response, the merchant screen is transitioned on the tablet computer display to a customer screen as the tablet computer enclosure/stand changes orientations by moving the merchant screen and the customer screen linearly while in a stacked orientation. The customer screen includes the merchant product information displayed according to customer orientation information such that the merchant product information is displayed differently on the customer screen relative to the merchant screen.

    摘要: A printed circuit including a microcontroller having at least one main element, termed a core, and at least one peripheral unit. The printed circuit has a selective power supply management for managing the power supply of the microcontroller. The selective management receives a command to shutdown the microcontroller coming from an internal shutdown function of the microcontroller, and reversibly cuts the power supply to the at least one peripheral unit while maintaining the power supply to the core.
