A diamond asset comprising one or more diamonds and an encryption chip is used to asset-back a cryptographic token that can be used to conduct transactions. The cryptographic token is written to a blockchain using a smart contract that is configured to enable a transaction associated with the token in response to two or more of: a signature by the encryption chip, a signature by the owner of the diamond asset, and a validation of a visual layout of the diamond asset.

A market maker system associated with a diamond-backed cryptographic exchange stores for each of a plurality of diamonds, a rating of the diamond according to each of multiple properties. The system receives ratings of a target diamond for each of the multiple properties. From the stored diamond ratings, the system selects one or more diamonds with ratings within a threshold distance from a specified rating of the target diamond. A dynamic order listing the selected diamonds is generated.

Described in this application is a secured smart cabinet having a plurality of retractable shelves mounted therein for storing a plurality of assets with wireless encryption chips for authentication sealed with each asset. Each shelf is partitioned into a plurality of compartments configured to hold an asset and to enable wireless communication between a wireless senor and a wireless encryption chip. A processing system is configured to command the wireless sensors to audit, authenticate and interact with the wireless encryption chip in the asset and exchange data between the processing system and an authentication server. The exchange of data could include receiving commands from and sending authentication results to the authentication server. The smart cabinet also includes a network device to enable the exchange of data between the processing system and the authentication server.

A remotely controlled cabinet assembly includes a cabinet unit that includes a central cabinet and a door that is hingedly coupled to the central cabinet. A plurality of locking units is each coupled to the central cabinet. Each of the locking units releasably engages the door for locking the door on the central cabinet. A control unit is coupled to the cabinet unit and the control unit is electrically coupled to each of the locking units. The control unit actuates each of the locking units to disengage and thusly unlock the door on the central cabinet. A keypad is coupled to the door and each of the locks disengages the door when an alpha-numeric code is entered into the keypad. An electronic device is carried by a user and the electronic device transmits an unlock command to the control unit for remotely unlocking the door on the central cabinet.

A cash storage apparatus of which a housing is structured such that a length in a depth direction is longer than a length in a height direction in a horizontal orientation state where a surface from which a cash storage case is pulled out or pushed out serves as a front surface, and in which a portion of an upper surface or undersurface of the housing when the housing is in the horizontal orientation state serves as an open/close cover that is opened frontward, in order to enable use in a vertical orientation state where the front surface when the housing is in the horizontal orientation state serves as an upper surface.

An economic self-service terminal with simple but high safety features is described here.

A door assembly system including a door assembly frame and a plurality of doors, each door being movably coupled to the door assembly frame. The system further includes an electrically activatable component coupled to the door assembly frame and operatively coupled to at least one door to selectively lock or unlock the at least one door. The door assembly frame is configured to be removably attached to a storage device frame having a plurality of compartments such that each door covers one of the compartments. The electrically activatable component is configured to be operatively connected to a controller coupled to the storage device frame.

An autonomous drop cart processing system is described. The system is configured to communicably couple with a drop cart that includes an array of cashbox data readers configured to interface with cashbox data transmitters associated with cashboxes inserted into compartments of the drop cart. As a result of this construction, the autonomous drop cart processing system can remove contents of each cashbox on the drop cart without needing to remove the cashbox from the drop cart in order to read the data from the cashbox data transmitter.

Various embodiments, relate to a system of lockers including a plurality of tracks and a plurality of walls. At least two of the plurality of walls slidably coupled to at least two of the plurality of tracks. Four of the plurality of walls form four sides of a locker cavity. The system also includes a plurality of doors. Each of the plurality of doors are oriented perpendicular to the plurality of the walls. A first door of the plurality of doors is coupleable to a second door of the plurality of doors so as to form a third door, and at least one of the plurality of doors form one side of the locker cavity. The system also includes a back wall, which forms one side of the locker cavity. The system further includes a lock for securing positions of the plurality of walls and of the plurality of doors.
