Embodiment Construction

[0031] Among the various embodiments of the invention, each embodiment includes at least one system, method, device, and software for secure image processing. In particular, secure image processing can be performed on images (such as image frames in a video stream from a camera) to blur the image (by modifying the image, encrypting it, discarding the image frame, etc.) to prevent, Restrict viewing of sensitive information that may be contained in these images, or view it securely.

[0032] For example, one or more cameras may be included within a product scanner associated with a point-of-sale (POS) terminal. An example of such a product scanner is the REALSCAN 79BI-OPTICIMAGER available from NCR Corporation, Duluth, Georgia, USA. During checkout at a POS terminal, customers often present items containing sensitive information, such as bank cards, driver's licenses, checks including account numbers and addresses, and other such items. Typically, one or more cameras of produc...

Abstract

Various embodiments herein each include at least one of systems, methods, devices, and software for secure image processing. In particular, the secure image processing may be performed with regard to images, such as image frames of a video stream, from a camera to obscure, either via image modification, encryption, and discarding image frames, to prevent, limit, or secure viewing of sensitive information that may be included within images. One such embodiment includes receiving an image of an image flow from a scanner, such as a product scanner, and determining whether a sensitive item is present in the image. When a sensitive item is determined to be present in the image, such embodiments perform a security action with regard to the image prior to passing the image in the image flow from the scanner.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to secure image processing. Background technique [0002] In today's society, camera applications are very common. Especially in public places like shopping malls, and even inside modern product scanners at checkouts, sensitive customer documents may be within the field of view of one or more cameras. Because many cameras transmit data over computer networks, or their data output can be accessed through computer networks and other computer systems, images from these cameras can be a illegitimate source of sensitive customer information (such as credit card, check, driver's license data, etc.) The goal of the activity. Contents of the invention [0003] Among the various embodiments of the invention, each embodiment includes at least one system, method, device, and software for secure image processing. In particular, secure image processing can be performed on images (such as image frames in a video stream from a camer...
