Identification appts. for use with bank cards - provides record of transaction and bank card presented

摘要

The identification appts provides a photocopy record of the presented bank card on a transaction slip on which the date etc is recorded. The bank card carries the fingerprint of the holder (4) and when the card is inserted in the identification appts, the holder places his finger over an appropriate location, so that a second record of the fingerprint (3) is obtained on the photocopy, for comparison with the first, hence verifying the identity of the card holder. The photocopy transaction slip obtained can be handled by automatic accounting machines at the bank. Pref. the bank card is also made of a special plastic with specific colour, magnetism etc, so that the identification appts can compare these with stored parameters.
