ORDER RE-CHECK SYSTEM
An order re-check system, comprising: electronic tags arranged on turnover boxes; RFID readers/writers arranged on goods allocations, when the turnover boxed are located on the goods allocations, RFID readers/writers acquiring number information of the turnover boxes via the electronic tags; a first information binding module, used for binding the first number information and the second number information in a one to one manner; a second information binding module, used for binding the second number information and orders in a one to one manner; a commodity information acquisition module, used for acquiring commodity information; a commodity information processing module, used for determining an order for a commodity according to the commodity information, and determining the first number information corresponding to the commodity according to a binding relationship between the first number information and the orders; and control indication modules, used for instructing the corresponding goods allocations or turnover boxes.
Cargo tracking systems and methods
A cargo tracking system for a vehicle includes an RFID reader configured to generate an output in response to a signal received from an RFID tag and an electronic control unit communicatively coupled to the RFID reader. The electronic control unit is configured to determine that the RFID tag is no longer within a range of the RFID reader based on the output of the RFID reader and determine a last location of the vehicle in response to determining that the RFID tag is no longer within the range of the RFID reader based on the output of the RFID reader.
RFID Multi-Read Portal
A system and method for multi-reading RFID codes is disclosed. The system may comprise a portal, a RFID reader, an entrance sensor, an exit sensor and a controller. The controller is configured to receive the RFID code data and the read timestamp for each article, receive the start trigger timestamp and the stop trigger timestamp, determine a read area time range based on the start trigger timestamp and the stop trigger timestamp, determine an active read area timeframe based on the read area time range as adjusted by a pre-read offset and a post-read offset, associate RFID code data with the first group if the read timestamp associated with the RFID code data occurred during the active read area timeframe, and process the RFID code data of the first group and transmit a result of the processing of the first group to an output interface.
PAYMENT CARDS AND DEVICES WITH GIFT CARD, GLOBAL INTEGRATION, AND MAGNETIC STRIPE READER COMMUNICATION FUNCTIONALITY
A payment card (e.g., credit and/or debit card) or other device (e.g., mobile telephone) is provided with a magnetic emulator operable to communicate data to a magnetic stripe read-head. Gift cards may be inputted by a user into such a payment card or other device such that a user can combine gift cards. Similarly, a user be provided with a global payment account that can be utilized in multiple countries that have different standards for formatting data. A user may be provided with a default country (e.g., United States) but may have a way to select that the user is in a different country (e.g., Japan). Accordingly, a user may select that a Japanese data structure be transmitted through a magnetic stripe reader when the user is in Japan.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SECURING A RESOURCE
A system and method for securing a resource includes a combination code generator configured to receive a first input sequence and a first panel context and generate a first computed combination code. A second computed combination code is generated from a received second input sequence and a second panel context. A set panels module receives the first computed combination code and the first panel context and re-orders the panels of the first panel context to set the second panel context. a hash key generator converts the received second panel context and the second combination code into a first hash key.
Dual mode RFID tag system
A dual-mode RFID tag and related system for storing, monitoring, and recovering data regarding an object, the system including a dual mode tag including a case, a UHF tag inside the case and structured to store at least a first portion data about the object, and an HF tag inside the case and to store at least a second portion of data about the object; the system further including a UHF reader to communicate with the UHF tag, an HF reader on a personal device to communicate with the HF tag, and a remote management system having a memory and a communication system that is communicatively coupleable to one or both of the HF reader and the UHF reader to receive a communication signal from one or both of the HF reader and the UHF tag and to store and modify data about the object in the remote management system, and to transmit data about the object to one or both of the UHF tag and the HF tag after determining the authorization of the HF reader user.

Systems and methods for capturing visible information
A transaction card construction and computer-implemented methods for a transaction card are described. The transaction card has vector-formatted visible information applied by a laser machining system. In some embodiments, systems and methods are disclosed for enabling the sourcing of visible information using a scalable vector format The systems and methods may receive a request to add visible information to a transaction card and capture an image of the visible information. The systems and methods may capture data representing the image. The systems and methods may also determine an ambient color saturation of the image. Further, systems and methods may translate the image based on the ambient color saturation of the image. The systems and methods may also map the translated image to a bounding box and convert the mapped image into vector format. In addition, the systems and methods may provide the converted image to a laser machining system.
Industrial Printer
A high speed tabletop and industrial printer is disclosed with integrated high speed RFID encoding and verification at the same time. The industrial printer simultaneously prints on and electronically encodes/verifies RFID labels, tags, and/or stickers attached to a continuous web. The industrial printer comprises a lighted sensor array for indexing the printing to the RFID tags; and a cutter powered from the industrial printer for cutting the web that the RFID tags are disposed on. The industrial printer comprises two RFID reader/writers that are individually controlled. Specifically, one of the RFID reader/writers comprises the ability to electronically encode the RFID tags while the web is moving; and the second RFID reader/writer uses an additional RFID module and antenna on the printer for verifying the data encoded to the RFID tags.
Systems and Methods to Selectively Connect Antennas to Communicate via Radio Frequency Signals
Systems and methods to selectively attach and control antennas via diodes. In one embodiment, a system includes: a reader having a plurality of reader antennas of different polarizations to transmit radio frequency signals; and at least one radio frequency device. The radio frequency device includes: a plurality of tag antennas of different polarizations; a plurality of diodes coupled to the plurality of tag antennas respectively; a receiver coupled to the plurality of diodes to receive the radio frequency signals from the tag antennas when the diodes are forward biased; and a set of one or more current controllers coupled to the plurality of diodes. In a receiving mode the controllers selectively forward bias the diodes to receive the signals from the reader. In a transmitting mode the controllers selectively change the state of the tag antennas to transmit data via backscattering the radio frequency signals.
