SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR FAST CHECKOUT USING A DETACHABLE COMPUTERIZED DEVICE
The presently disclosed subject matter includes a system and method for fast checkout from a retail store. The system includes a portable computerized device that is configured to track items which are inserted or removed from a shopping container.
Physical stand for multiple device orientations and peripheral card reader
There are provided systems and methods for a physical stand for multiple device orientations and peripheral card reader. A device stand may include a dock that allows for placement and securing of a computing device within the device case, such as through a locking or connecting mechanism. The device dock further includes a peripheral component, such as a physical card reader, that allows for reading and entry of card data into the computing device for use with an electronic transaction processing application on the computing device. This allows the computing device to process transactions electronic with an online service provider. Further, the device stand includes a hinge or joint that allows for rotating and inverting of the computing device over a curved extension from a base of the device stand, which allows the computing device to be viewed in multiple directions and orientations.
Printing apparatus
A printing apparatus includes: a printing section including a plurality of printing elements that performs printing on a medium; a power supply circuit supplying power to the printing section; a control circuit controlling the printing section and the power supply circuit; and a USB-Type-C interface configured to couple an external device and including a data transmission/reception terminal, a power input/output terminal, and a state identification terminal. When the state identification terminal detects that the external device that receives the power via the power input/output terminal is coupled, and the printing section performs printing, an amount of power supplied to the external device is large in a case in which a drive rate of the plurality of printing elements is low as compared with a case in which the drive rate of the plurality of printing elements is high.
DISPLAY DEVICE
A display device is provided. The display device includes a screen body, a first angle adjustment mechanism, a connecting arm, a second angle adjustment mechanism, and a pedestal. The screen body is provided with a first set of positioning holes and a second set of positioning holes. A first angle adjustment mechanism is selectively connected to the screen body through the first set of positioning holes or the second set of positioning holes, so that the screen body is disposed vertically or horizontally. The first angle adjustment mechanism is pivotally connected to the connecting arm, so that the screen body and the connecting arm are rotatable relative to each other. The second angle adjustment mechanism is pivotally connected to the connecting arm and the pedestal, so that the connecting arm and the pedestal are rotatable relative to each other.
Product purchase support system, product purchase support device and method, POS terminal device, and non-transitory computer readable medium
Provided are a product purchase support system (100), a product purchase support device (10), and a POS terminal device (20) that improve the efficiency of checkout processing for product sales and enhance the convenience of customers when purchasing a product. The product purchase support system (100) according to the present invention includes the product purchase support device (10) including a depth camera (12) and a first display device (13), and a POS terminal device (20) that performs checkout processing for a product. When the product purchase support device (10) detects a product selection motion of selecting a product by a customer, it identifies a product selected by the customer and generates product information related to this product, and displays the product information on the first display device (13). Further, the product purchase support device (10) outputs the product information to the POS terminal device (20).
Point of sale system with hinge structure for multiple positions
Embodiments include a point of sale system. The point of sale system includes a base, a stand coupled to the base, and a head unit coupled to the stand. The point of sale system further includes two outer hinge arms and an inner hinge arm that couple the head unit to the stand.
MONEY HANDLING APPARATUS AND MONEY HANDLING METHOD
A money handling apparatus (for example, a banknote handling apparatus) includes a destination selector configured to select a storage unit where at least one of a counterfeit money and suspect money among the money transported by the transporting unit is to be transported, from the plurality of storage units (for example, each banknote storage unit, each storage/feeding unit, collecting unit, banknote ejecting unit, and the like) and a controller configured to control the transporting unit to transport at least one of the counterfeit money and suspect money to the storage unit selected by the destination selector among the plurality of storage units.
READING DEVICE AND SELF-SERVICE POINT-OF-SALES TERMINAL
A reading device includes a first support member extending vertically, a scanner attached to the first support member and including a window facing a first direction and through which an item can be scanned by an operator, an extension member attached to an upper portion of the first support member and extending in the first direction above the scanner, a camera attached to an end of the extension member in the first direction and configured to capture an image of the operator, and a controller configured to issue a notification signal when the controller detects from the captured image that the operator is carrying out a predetermined operation.
Systems and methods for adjusting point-of-sale interfaces
Systems and methods are provided for adjusting point of sale (POS) interfaces. In some embodiments, a POS device includes a display. The display is configured to present a user interface, the user interface having a first interface and a second interface. The first interface has a first set of functionalities that is prevented from being accessible in the second interface.
MICROPROCESSOR AS A SECURITY LAYER
Various aspects of the disclosure generally relate to security for a credit card processing reader. Part of security for a reader is protecting sensitive components, for example components that access information from a credit card during a transaction. An alternative security configuration may include integrated circuits replacing portions of electrically active mesh. This may reduce the size and cost of a reader while maintaining its security with respect to published guidelines.
