Benefits of technology

The patent discloses a system and method for using face recognition technology in a cash handling system. By capturing the user's face during ordering, the system can link the user's order data to their face data, which is then transmitted to the cash payment terminal for payment. This eliminates the need for manual operation, saves human resources, and improves the accuracy and efficiency of face recognition. The system also uses a camera to detect depth of field and prioritizes capturing the user's face for recognition.

Problems solved by technology

Nonetheless, the automated point of sale systems will still need to manually identify the consumers with their associated orders.
Therefore, to combine the automated teller machines with the automated point of sale systems to provide a more convenient service for business owners and the consumers is an important issue in this field.

first embodiment

[0033]FIG. 3 is a block diagram of the cash payment terminal 120 in FIG. 1 in the With reference to FIG. 3, the cash payment terminal 120 includes a second camera 310, a picture comparator 320, the controller 330, and a cash handling apparatus 340. The second camera 310 is a camcorder or a camera. The picture comparator 320 may determine whether the user corresponding to the pieces of first face data appears in the second image by using the pieces of first face data. The picture comparator 320 is similar to the face recognition apparatus 220 in FIG. 2 and may be implemented by using a hardware circuit or a process through the controller 330. The cash handling apparatus 340 is an automatic apparatus used for collecting physical currency and may include a corresponding apparatus having other payment functions. The cash payment terminal 120 of this embodiment further includes a data receiving apparatus 350, a storage apparatus 360, a display 370, and an input apparatus 380. The displa...

second embodiment

[0046]With reference to FIG. 6, the application server 150 communicates with each order terminal 110 and the cash payment terminal 120 through the network 130. The application server 150 includes a face recognition apparatus 691 and a picture comparator 692. A processor 640 in the order terminal 110 transmits the first image corresponding to the order data OD to the application server 150. The face recognition apparatus 691 in the application server 150 analyzes the first image to obtain the first face data FD, and the application server 150 further links the order number and the first face data FD corresponding to the order data OD together. From another perspective, the second camera 310 in the cash payment terminal 120 captures the second image, and a controller 630 of the cash payment terminal 120 transmits the second image to the application server 150 through a data transmission apparatus 660. The picture comparator 692 of the application server 150 identifies whether one piec...

third embodiment

[0055]FIG. 9 is a schematic diagram of a cash handling system 900 and related apparatuses according to the disclosure. A cash handling system 900 may further include a plurality of cash payment terminals 120 in addition to the order terminals 110. In this way, after the user places order and performs the foregoing operation on one of the order terminals 110, the user may approach one of the cash payment terminals 120 to pay. The crowd attempting to make payment may be dispersed, and the user may thereby enjoy a favorable consumption experience.

[0056]In view of the foregoing, in the embodiments of the disclosure, when the user places an order on one of the order tell Ana's, the face recognition technique is used to capture the face feature data of the user to act as a basis for identification, and the face feature data and the order data are linked together to act as the client data. After the user completes ordering, the client data is transmitted from the order terminal to the cash...

Abstract

A cash handling system and a cash transaction method are provided. The cash handling system includes at least one order terminal and a cash payment terminal. The cash payment terminal communicates with the order terminal. The order terminal captures a first image, and at least one piece of first face data is included in the first image. The order terminal obtains order data and generates client data according to the order data and the at least one piece of first face data. The at least one piece of first face data is linked to the order data. The cash payment terminal obtains the client data, and the client data includes the order data and the at least one piece of first face data. The cash payment terminal captures a second image. When specific face data appears in the second image, the cash payment terminal performs a payment operation according to specific order data linked to the specific face data.
