  • Patent number: 11651337
    Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for analyzing images of visual objects, such as currency and/or payment cards, captured on a mobile device. The analysis allows determining the authenticity and/or total amount of value of the currency and/or payment cards. The system may be used to verify the authenticity of hard currency, to count the total amount of the currency captured in one or more images, and to convert the currency using real time monetary exchange rates. The mobile device may be used to verify the identity of a credit card user by analyzing one or more images of the card holder's face and/or card holder's signature, card holder's name on the card, card number, and/or card security code.
