Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a counter processing device used in a financial institution such as a bank, and to the identification of a person in charge of performing various transaction input operations.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art With the introduction of online stores in financial institutions and the alliance of financial institutions, automatic transaction devices (hereinafter referred to as A) are used for deposit / withdrawal transactions, transfer processing, and payment of utility charges.
TM) is widely used, and A
Automated corners and unmanned stores where TMs are installed are provided. However, some customers who are unfamiliar with the ATM or some customers still want to make a transaction at the counter, and the sales offices arrange a passbook slip printer to perform the counter processing.

In order to operate the passbook slip printer at the counter of the financial institution and to execute the counter transaction processing, a card reader or the like provided on the keyboard is used because it is necessary to identify a clerk (operator) for each transaction. To read an operator identification card (hereinafter referred to as an operation card). The clerk information read from the operation card is printed on a predetermined portion of the processing slip as an individually broken number or code, thereby facilitating confirmation of the clerk at a later date.

[0004]

At the start of the processing operation, the operator is determined (identified) by reading the operation card possessed by the clerk in the initial screen display state, and takes charge until one transaction is completed. Since many transactions at the counter are related to the handling of cash, it is rare for the passbook slip printer to leave the operator's seat during processing. However, when one process is completed, it is necessary to leave the desk and perform other tasks.In such a case, initialize the operation screen and bring an operation card so that you do not become the person in charge of the next process transaction. You are away. Therefore, when you take a seat without a transaction after leaving,
The operation card is read again in the initial screen display state. As described above, even the same staff member is very troublesome because the operation card is read at the start of the next transaction.

Further, information is generally recorded on an operation card as magnetic information, but if the magnetic information is erroneously destroyed by various handling, it becomes unusable, and it is visually confirmed that the magnetic information has been destroyed. There was a problem that it could not be used when needed because it could not be judged.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a passbook voucher printer which conducts a transaction by a clerk's operation with a camera for collecting iris data, and identifies the clerk by the iris data collected by the camera. Then, in the window processing device that executes the transaction processing, after the face shape data is collected at the same time as the iris data collection, after performing the staff identification for operating the passbook slip printer by the iris data,
The operation shifts to a staff identification operation based on the face shape data, and the face shape data is collected again every predetermined time to identify and monitor the staff.

A magnetic R / W unit) 64 is provided.

The passbook slip printer 2 shown in FIG. 1 has a passbook insertion slot 61a at the bottom and a slip insertion slot 62a at the top, and the passbook 20 and slip P inserted from each insertion slot become the same after processing is completed. It is discharged from the insertion ports 61a and 62a.

A control unit 65 is provided for controlling each of the above units, and the control unit 65 is connected to the host computer 5 via the monitoring device 3 and the communication line 4. In addition,
The control unit 65 includes a storage unit 66 including a ROM, a RAM, and the like for storing programs for controlling various operations and transaction contents.

Next, an example of a withdrawal transaction by the operator D will be described with reference to a transaction operation flowchart of the passbook slip printer shown in FIGS. The symbol S represents a step. First, when the operator D is positioned (seated) in front of the passbook slip printer 2 and inputs a transaction item code on the initial screen from the keyboard 11, the display 12 is switched to a transaction input screen (S11). At the same time, the camera 13 is controlled to photograph the position image of the operator D, compare it with the face shape of the human body stored in advance, and if it is determined that it is close to the "face shape", determine that the face is "face" (S12). Then, the position of the "eyes" is specified from the "face shape", and the face information as digital information is generated from the face shape image as shown in FIG. The iris data is collected (S13).

The face data and the iris data are stored in a storage unit 66.
(S14), and transmits only the iris data to the host computer 5 (S15). The host computer 5 searches the in-house information file stored in the storage device 6 for a matching staff code and name based on the iris data, and returns the search result to the monitoring device 3 (S1).
6).

If the operator is allowed to operate the passbook slip printer 2 from the clerk code, the monitoring device 3 additionally displays the "handler (sex)" on the transaction screen and controls the inhalation of the passbook 20. (S17). At the same time as permitting the transaction, the control section 65 controls the camera 13 and the image processing section 14 to periodically collect the "face shape data" of the operator D until the processing is completed (for example, every 5 seconds) (S18).

If it is determined in step 16 that the corresponding staff code cannot be extracted from the iris data, "not applicable" information is returned from the host computer 5, and the passbook slip printer 2 reacquires the iris data (S1).
9). Then, even if the re-acquisition / search has been performed a predetermined number of times, in the case of "not applicable", an operation impossible is displayed on the display 12 and treated as an error.

On the other hand, the passbook slip printer 2 which has become able to inhale the passbook 20 in step 17 conveys the passbook 20 inserted from the passbook insertion slot 61a to the magnetic R / W section 64 (S17).
20), magnetic recording information is read from the magnetic stripe of the passbook 20 (S21). This record information is the name and account number of the customer, as well as print page and print start line information.
Is transmitted to the host computer 5 via the.

From the account number information, deposit balance information in the account ledger file of the storage device 6 is searched, and customer data including unregistered data is returned to the passbook slip printer 2 (S2).
2) Part of the customer data is automatically displayed in a predetermined column of the withdrawal transaction screen on the display 12 (S23).

The operator D visually confirms the display screen, the customer name, the account number, and the like, reads the withdrawal amount described from the slip P, and inputs the number of withdrawals for each denomination from the keyboard 11 ( (S24) Finally, the transmission key (key indicating the completion of the input) is pressed (S25).

When the transmission key is depressed, the passbook 20 is transported to the printing section 63, where printing of unrecorded transactions is performed first, followed by printing of the contents of the main transaction (S26).
On the other hand, when the operator D inserts the slip P from the slip insertion slot 62a (S27), the operator D holds the slip P near the slip insertion slot 62a and waits.

After printing of the passbook 20 is completed and the passbook 20 is conveyed to the magnetic R / W section 64, the passbook slip printer 2 sucks the slip P to the printing section 63 and prints the slip (S28).
In the magnetic R / W unit 64, the passbook 20 updates the magnetic stripe (printed pages and new line information) on the magnetic stripe (S29), and sequentially discharges the passbook 20 and the slip P (S3).
0).

At the same time when the passbook 20 and the slip P are discharged, whether the "face shape" coincides is compared with the face shape data periodically collected and the face shape data stored in the storage unit 66. By doing so (S31), if they match, the next transaction screen can be selected to enable the processing from step 17 (S32).

If there is a mismatch, the identification data (face shape data and iris data) of the operator D as an operator is deleted from the storage section 66 (S33), the transaction screen is returned to the initial screen, and the processing is terminated (S33). S34). Therefore, step 3
When the initial transaction screen is displayed by step 4, the next operation is step 11
It will be performed from.

Next, the identification of the operator D based on the face shape data will be described with reference to FIG. The similarity of a human face can be determined by the contour of the face, the length of the face, the position of the eyes, the size of the eyes, etc.
When you speak a language, the "mouth" opens and the contour changes when the expression changes. However, the position of the eyes and the position of the nose change very little, and the position data is collected and used as “face shape data”.

When the face image of the operator D is collected by the camera 13, the elements such as the hairstyle are excluded to extract the light and dark boundaries of the face as shown in FIG. (W), the distance from the eyes to the nose (H), and the width of the face (L) are temporarily stored in the storage unit 66 as relative positional relationships. The stored face shape data is compared with the face shape data re-collected every predetermined time to determine whether or not they are the same person. The face shape data stored in the storage unit 66 is generated in the process of image processing for collecting iris data.

As described above, the operator merely sits at the front of the passbook slip printer 2 (seated), and the passbook slip printer 2 identifies the operator based on the iris data. Further, since the same operator is monitored at any time by identifying the face shape, the security is high and the trouble is not given.

Further, even when the operator wears glasses or the like during the operation, the change in the face shape is small as shown in FIG. 7 and the positions of the "eyes" and "nose" are the same, so that it is easy. There is no problem because it is possible to identify and further easily understand that the spectacles are worn from the shape of the spectacles. In addition, although the eye interval (W) is shown as the distance between the eyeballs, it is needless to say that the eye may be located at the inner or outer corner of the eye.

Next, a description will be given of an operator identification flowchart of the passbook slip printer shown in FIG. First, when the operator D is positioned (seated) in front of the passbook slip printer 2 and inputs a transaction item code on the initial screen, the camera 13 is controlled to take an image of the position of the operator D, and the human body shape stored in advance is stored. When it is determined that the face is close to the "face shape", the face is determined. Then, the position of the "eyes" is specified from the "face shape", and the position information as shown in FIG. Generate face shape data as digital data of the face shape image (S4
1) Further, iris data is collected from the “eye” (S4)
2).

The face shape data and the iris data are stored in a storage unit 66.
(S43), and transmits only the iris data to the host computer 5 (S44). The host computer 5 searches the in-house information file stored in the storage device 6 for a matching staff code, name, and the like based on the iris data, and returns the search result to the monitoring device 3 (S45).

In the monitoring device 3, if the operator is permitted to operate the passbook slip printer 2 from the clerk code,
Simultaneously with the transaction permission, the control unit 65 controls the camera 13 and the image processing unit 14 to periodically collect the "face shape data" of the operator D and execute the transaction process (S4).
7).

In step 45, if the corresponding staff code cannot be extracted from the iris data, "not applicable" information is returned from the host computer 5, and the passbook slip printer 2 performs re-acquisition of the iris data a predetermined number of times ( S46).

When the passbook 20 and the slip P are discharged and the transaction processing is completed (S48), face shape data is collected again (S4).
9) Collating the face shape data stored in the storage unit 66 (S50). If the face shape data matches, the next transaction instruction is enabled (S51), and the transaction of step 47 is enabled. .

When there is no next transaction instruction in step 51, the face shape data in step 49 is collected and collation is repeated (S49 to S51). Step 50
If the collation does not match, the identification data (face shape data and iris data) of the operator D as an operator is deleted from the storage unit 66 (S52), and the transaction screen is returned to the initial screen. Therefore, the next process is performed from the collection of the face shape data and the iris data in step 41.

If the face shape pattern cannot be detected when the face shape data is collected in step 49, it is determined that the operator D has left the seat, and the identification data (face shape data and iris data) of the operator D is stored in the storage unit. Then, the transaction screen is returned to the initial screen (S53).

Although the search based on the iris data is performed by the host computer 5, the search is not limited to this. Needless to say, the iris data can be searched and collated by being registered in the monitoring device 3 and the passbook slip printer 2 in advance.

By collecting face shape data from an operator's face shape image and easily performing operator identification based on the face shape data, it is possible to identify the operator. This eliminates the need for a complicated camera control that follows the movement in the viewing direction due to an input operation, a lookout for a visitor, and the like.

[0038]

The present invention described above has the following effects. The operator who operates the passbook slip printer collects iris data at the time of selecting and inputting the transaction screen, and identifies the operator. Therefore, it is not necessary to use an operation card, and it is possible to eliminate consideration for strict management of the operation card.

Further, after the operator is identified by the iris data, the face shape data is used to simply identify whether or not the same person.
Monitoring can reduce video processing.
