Patent number: 11942201Abstract: An apparatus to perform or control obtaining or causing obtaining an image of at least a part of a surface of a sealed unit. The apparatus derives or causes to derive a representation of the at least a part of the surface from the image. The representation includes a set of values representing height levels of corresponding sections of the part of the surface. The apparatus generates or causes generating a string of characters based on the representation of the part of the surface. The string of characters includes a first portion representative of the set of height levels and a second portion generated based on a function of the representation and/or of the first portion of the string of characters. The apparatus associates or causes associating information representing the string of characters with identification information of the sealed unit.Type: GrantFiled: April 20, 2021Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: DEUTSCHE POST AGInventors: Ali Özyigit, Baris Cem Sal

Patent number: 11760120Abstract: A method is disclosed which is performed by at least one first apparatus. In the method, information indicative of at least one characteristic of a franking is obtained. It is determined whether or not the franking is a counterfeit franking and/or a reused franking based on the obtained information or based on the obtained information and based on reference information indicative of at least one characteristic of a franking. The at least one characteristic includes at least one of a physical characteristic of the franking, a visual characteristic of an image provided on the franking, and/or a characteristic based on at least one material of the franking.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2020Date of Patent: September 19, 2023Assignee: DEUTSCHE POST AGInventors: Ali Özyigit, Baris Cem Sal, Elisa Schneider, Marc Gittler

Publication number: 20230230017Abstract: Disclosed is a method in which trigger information is obtained. The trigger information is associated with at least part of attribute information associated with at least one first consignment unit. It is determined whether or not attribute information associated with at least one second consignment unit is stored in a database that is similar to the attribute information associated with the at least one first consignment unit. If the attribute information associated with at least one second consignment unit is determined to be stored in the database that is determined to be similar to the attribute information associated with the at least one first consignment unit, then alert information is generated.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 15, 2022Publication date: July 20, 2023Applicant: Deutsche Post AGInventor: Ali Özyigit
