  • Patent number: 11797964
    Abstract: An automated transaction machine (ATM) can include a housing, a display, a cash recycler, and a check receiver. The display can be mounted to the housing and directed toward an exterior of the housing. The cash recycler can be configured to receive a first note of currency from a first user of the ATM and dispense the first note of currency to a subsequent, second user of the ATM. The check receiver can be positioned in the housing, an intake portion with an inlet communicating with the exterior of the housing, and a check reader portion configured to receive a check from the intake portion, scan data displayed on the check, and store the check. The intake portion can be positioned below the display and the check reader portion is positioned behind the display.

  • Publication number: 20220326199
    Abstract: A method of unambiguous identification and authentication of products for the purpose of better recognition of product forgeries and controlling product piracy, including applying to/into the product an identification substance admixture which contains paramagnetic phases or identifying a product which contains an identification substance admixture containing paramagnetic phases and has an ESR fingerprint spectrum that permits unambiguous identification of the product. Such an ESR fingerprint spectrum is easily measurable, but can be copied or forged only with difficulty. The method relates to an individualizable “femto tag” for femto ledgers and forms an important interface for what are known as “Internet of Things” (IOT).

  • Publication number: 20190117770
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method and composition for treating a disease associated with target cells expressing CD138 in a multiple dose regimen. An immunoconjugate comprising an engineered targeting antibody targeting CD138 expressing cells and an effector molecule is administered in a multiple dose regimen. The multiple dose regimen comprises at least two doses and the aggregate dose administered within an active treatment cycle is an aggregate maximum tolerable dose (AMTD) or a fraction of the AMTD. The AMTD and/or said fraction exceeds the dose resulting in dose limiting toxicity (DLT) and/or exceeds the maximum tolerable dose (MTD) when the immunoconjugate is administered as a single dose, including as part of a multiple single dose regimen within said active treatment cycle.
