  • Publication number: 20220012323
    Abstract: To enhance convenience in an authentication system using a plurality of types of authentication, a terminal device transmits authentication data including a face image and a voice of a user, the position of the terminal device, to the server device. The server device uses the received authentication data to perform individual authentications including face authentication, voiceprint authentication, position adequacy verification. The server device applies adds up weighted scores of the individual authentications to calculate a comprehensive score. When the comprehensive score exceeds a first threshold, a high security operation is permitted. When the comprehensive score is not higher than the first threshold and exceeds a second threshold, a low security operation is permitted.

  • Publication number: 20210117943
    Abstract: In a customer transaction system, when a customer terminal device transmits a withdrawal transaction request to a management device, the management device performs a withdrawal transaction request to a financial system server and deducts a withdrawal amount from an account balance. The management device sets, on an automatic teller machine, a withdrawal limit based on the withdrawal amount, generates a withdrawal code and notifies a customer terminal device of the withdrawal code. When the customer terminal device with the withdrawal code being displayed on a display unit is held over the automatic teller machine, the automatic teller machine reads the withdrawal code, makes a withdrawal execution request to the management device, and performs withdrawal based on the withdrawal limit upon receiving withdrawal approval from the management device.

  • Patent number: 10179716
    Abstract: A stacking wheel mechanism (30) includes a stacking wheel (32) that is arranged near a stacking unit (26) and having a plurality of elastic blades (32a) on an outer circumferential surface thereof, and a blade guiding member (38) that is arranged near the stacking wheel (32) to guide the blades (32a) of the stacking wheel (32). The blade guiding member (38) guides the blades (32a) of the stacking wheel (32) such that the blades (32a) of the stacking wheel (32) enter into a transport path (for example, an internal transport path (36)) when the stacking wheel (32) rotates in a feeding-in direction of a paper sheet toward the stacking unit (26) and the blades (32a) of the stacking wheel (32) retreat from the transport path when the stacking wheel (32) rotates in a feeding-out direction of the paper sheet from the stacking unit (26).
