TL;DR: A modular point-of-sale image display terminal combines magnetic stripe and optical card technology to ensure compatibility with existing networking systems while permitting images stored on the optical card to be decoded and displayed in order to provide additional security for sales and other transactions or services as discussed by the authors.
Abstract: A modular point-of-sale image display terminal combines magnetic stripe and optical card technology to ensure compatibility with existing networking systems while permitting images stored on the optical card to be decoded and displayed in order to provide additional security for sales and other transactions or services which require authentication of the card and/or verification of the identity of the cardholder. The design of the terminal is modular, permitting flexibility for different applications and simple upgradeability. In addition, the terminal is provided with modem communications while also being capable of functioning as a stand-alone terminal.

TL;DR: In this paper, a scratch-off game card image is presented on web pages of participating sites in the form of a superimposed dual image responsive to a browser's cursor movement, such that when a browser is authorized, movement of the cursor over the dual image causes the dominant image to dissolve and reveal the secondary image which contains the numbers or symbols used by the scratchoff game.
Abstract: A scratch-off game card image (65-66) is presented on web pages of participating sites in the form of a super-imposed dual image responsive to a browser's cursor movement (67) such that when a browser is authorized (62), movement of the cursor over the dual image causes the dominant image to dissolve and reveal the secondary image which contains the numbers or symbols used by the scratch-off game. When a scratch-off image card contains a winning combination of symbols, the act of the browser scratching off the covering image to reveal the secondary image automatically advances the browser through routines which enable the browser to receive the prize or credits awarded based on the secondary image of the card image (68).

Abstract: In a system for updating a contacts database (42, 46), a portable imager (12) acquires a digital business card image (10). An image segmenter (16) extracts text image segments from the digital business card image. An optical character recognizer (OCR) (26) generates one or more textual content candidates for each text image segment. A scoring processor (36) scores each textual content candidate based on results of database queries respective to the textual content candidates. A content selector (38) selects a textual content candidate for each text image segment based at least on the assigned scores. An interface (50) is configured to update the contacts list based on the selected textual content candidates.

TL;DR: In this article, a system for managing token image replacement is presented, which includes a remote server, a personal computer connected to the remote server and a smartcard that can be read by the PC, and a card image server.
Abstract: A system for managing token image replacement is provided. The system includes a remote server, a personal computer (PC) connected to the remote server, a smartcard that can be read by the PC, and a card image server. Using application logic and rules, the remote server is able to read the card image on the smartcard and determine if the card image on the smartcard needs to be updated. If an indicator on the smartcard is set to “update”, the remote server then retrieves a backup card image that corresponds to the card from the card image server. The remote server forwards the backup card image to the PC which, in turn, writes the backup card image including transaction information to the smartcard. Once the backup card image is written onto the smartcard, the indicator in the smartcard is then reset to ensure that subsequent interactions with the system would not initiate an update.
