-
FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating the configuration of an embodiment of the automatic teller machine to which the present invention is applied. - The
automatic teller machine 100 in this embodiment comprises apower supply cable 101 for receiving a commercial alternating current (AC) power supply; a machinepower supply unit 118 for converting an AC voltage to a direct current (DC) voltage for supplying the DC voltage to components within theautomatic teller machine 100; aline controller 119 for communicating data with afinancial institution host 120 and a center monitoring unit (in a security company) 121; and amain controller 110. Themain controller 110 controls a customertransaction operation unit 116 through which a customer performs operations associated with transactions; astorage unit 117 for storing contents of transactions and so on; acard reading mechanism 111 for controlling card reading; a detail form/journal printing mechanism 112 for controlling the printing on a detail form/journal; apassbook printing mechanism 113 for controlling the printing on a passbook; a bill receipt/payment mechanism 114 for controlling receipt and payment of bills; and a coin receipt/payment mechanism 115 for controlling receipt and payment of coins. - The
automatic teller machine 100 further comprises asecurity sensing unit 108 for sensing phenomena (vibration, heat and so on) indicative of the need for security; asecurity monitoring unit 107 for monitoring a situation by means of a video camera and a microphone when vibrations, heat or the like is sensed; asecurity monitoring controller 105 for controlling the units associated with the security monitoring; and a wireless securitydata communication unit 109. - When the
security monitoring controller 105 responsible for controlling the security monitoring receives an output from thesecurity sensing unit 108, thesecurity monitoring controller 105 first confirms, from the presence or absence of a response to a transmission, whether or not themain controller 110 and theline controller 119 are connected to a security company (monitoring center) 121. If connected, monitoring information such as video and audio is transmitted to thesecurity company 121 through themain controller 110 and theline controller 119 via a line. - The
main controller 110 is normally supplied with a required voltage by the machinepower supply unit 118. - When the machine
power supply unit 118 is turned off, themain controller 110 is supplied with the voltage by the backuppower supply unit 103 which converts an AC voltage from the power supply cable 191 supplied with commercial AC power to a DC voltage, and supplies the DC voltage to themain controller 110. The backuppower supply unit 103 has a switching function for switching a power supply circuit when the AC voltage is shut down such that the voltage is immediately supplied from abattery 104. Therefore, if no AC voltage is supplied from the power supply cable 101 (for example, due to power interruption, cutpower supply cable 101, or the like), or if the backuppower supply unit 103 fails, themain controller 110 is supplied with the voltage from thebattery 104. Thesecurity monitoring controller 105 is supplied with a required voltage from the backuppower supply unit 103. - When no response is returned even if the
main controller 110 transmits a query signal to themonitoring center 121, this means that a trouble occurs on the line which connects themachine 100 to themonitoring center 121. Thesecurity monitoring controller 105 determines a line trouble based on whether a response to a query is returned to themain controller 100. If a line trouble has occurred, thesecurity monitoring controller 105 switches the transmission mode from wired transmission to wireless transmission, and causes the securitydata communication unit 109 to transmit monitoring information such as video and audio. - When the automatic transaction operation managed by the
main controller 110 is stopped or paused, thesecurity monitoring controller 105, supplied with the voltage from the backuppower supply unit 103, switches the transmission mode from wired transmission to wireless transmission, and causes the securitydata communication unit 109 to transmit monitoring information such as video and audio. - As described above, if a line trouble occurs, or if vibrations, heat or the like is sensed while the automatic transaction operation is stopped or paused with the
line controller 119 remaining in an inoperative state, an automatic call is made to thesecurity company 121 through wireless transmission to transmit monitoring information such as video and audio by thesecurity monitoring unit 107 for monitoring the situation with a video camera and a microphone; the securitydata recording unit 106 for recording contents of the monitoring; and thesecurity monitoring controller 105 for controlling the security monitoring performed by these units. - Further, even if the
power supply cable 101 is cut by a guilty act, the securitydata communication unit 109 continues to transmit monitoring information such as video and audio, sensed during the guilty act, to thesecurity company 121 through wireless transmission by continuously powering only the units 105-109 associated with the security monitoring from thebattery 104, thereby making it possible to sequentially collect information and keep track of the automatic teller machine even if the entire machine has been stolen. -
FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating the layout of the embodiment of the automatic teller machine associated with the security monitoring. - The automatic teller machine in this embodiment has the
security sensing unit 108, arranged in a portion of the machine likely to receive an attach such as front and back surfaces of the housing, for sensing vibrations, heat or the like; and thesecurity monitoring unit 107 arranged at a location at which an attacker(s) can be monitored for monitoring a situation by means of a video camera and a microphone when vibrations, heat or the like is sensed. Thesecurity monitoring controller 105 preponderantly monitors a surface which suffers from an attack. More specifically, the automatic teller machine preponderantly records monitoring information on an attacked surface in the securitydata recording unit 106, and communicates such monitoring information to thesecurity company 121 through thesecurity monitoring controller 105,main controller 110 andline controller 119. - Also, when the
security monitoring controller 105 determines a line trouble or an inoperative state of theline controller 119, a wireless-based automatic call is made to thesecurity company 121 by the securitydata communication unit 109 to transmit monitoring information such as video and audio. - Specifically, when a sufficiently large capacity is ensured for accommodating information sent from the
line controller 119 or the securitydata communication unit 109, it is possible to fully send monitoring information on the front side of the machine and monitoring information on the back side of the machine. However, if the amount of information which can be sent is limited, for example, if the capacity is limited to allow transmission of monitoring information only on one side of the machine, monitoring information on an attacked side is preponderantly recorded and sent to thesecurity company 121. For example, 70% of monitoring information on the attacked side and 30% of monitoring information on the unattacked side are recorded and sent to thesecurity company 121. The percentage of monitoring information on the attacked side and that on the unattacked side allocated for transmission may be based on monitoring time or on the data quality of monitoring information. - In addition, data recorded by the
security monitoring controller 105 and the securitydata recording unit 106 is guarded by a robust housing having a structure hard to break, for example, the structure employed for the voice recorder equipped in an airplane. Therefore, even if the machine itself is stolen, detailed information can be collected by searching monitoring information contained in the securitydata recording unit 106 of the machine if it is found at some future date after the theft. Particularly, since the units 105-109 associated with the security monitoring and the backuppower supply units automatic teller machine 100 even if the machine itself is stolen. The robust structure may be, for example, the structure for safes, an assembly made of stiff materials, or an integrated structure. As to the camera equipped in theautomatic teller machine 100, a pin hole camera or the like should be used such that no one can recognize the camera equipped therein and its position from the outside. -
FIG. 3 is a flow chart illustrating an embodiment of a processing operation executed by thesecurity monitoring controller 105 when theautomatic teller machine 100 experiences an unusual event. - In the following, the operation of the
security monitoring controller 105 in the embodiment ofFIG. 1 will be described along the flow chart. - When the
automatic teller machine 100 senses vibrations, heat or the like from the outside caused by some cause through the sensing unit 108 (step 300), thesecurity monitoring controller 105 determines whether theautomatic teller machine 100 is attacked from the back side or from the front side (step 301). Determining an attack from the back side of the machine, a situation around the back side is preponderantly monitored by the camera/microphone 107 mounted on the back surface of the machine, while a situation around the front side of the machine is also monitored on a periodic basis (step 302). - When an attack from the front side of the machine is determined at (step 301), the situation around the front side of the machine is preponderantly monitored by the camera/
microphone 107 mounted on the front surface of the machine, while the situation around the back side is also monitored on a periodic basis (step 303). - Also, the monitored information is stored in the security
data recording unit 106 under control of the security monitoring controller 105 (step 304). - Next, for determining whether or not the means for transmitting the information under monitoring to the
security company 121 is normally operating, thesecurity monitoring controller 105 confirms whether or not the machinepower supply unit 118 is delivering a normal output (step 305). When the output is normal, thesecurity monitoring controller 119 next confirms whether or not themain controller 110 is normally operating (step 311). When themain controller 110 is normally operating, thesecurity monitoring controller 105 further confirms whether or not theline controller 119 is normally operating (step 312). - If the determination results at (step 305), (step 311) and (step 312) are all normal, the data recorded at (step 304), i.e., monitoring information (video and audio) is communicated to the
security company 121 through thesecurity monitoring controller 105,main controller 110 and line controller 119 (step 306). - If the determination result at any of (step 305), (step 311) and (step 312) is abnormal, the
security monitoring controller 105 confirms whether or not the AC voltage is supplied from the machine power supply unit 118 (step 307) by means of the backuppower supply unit 103 which is monitoring the output of the machinepower supply unit 118 at all times. If no AC voltage is being supplied as determined at (step 307), the power from thebattery 104 is supplied only to thesecurity monitoring controller 105 and the units 106-109 associated therewith through the backup power supply unit 103 (step 308), so that thesecurity monitoring unit 107 continues to operate (step 309) and the securitydata communication unit 109 wirelessly transmits the monitoring information (video and audio) to the security company 121 (step 310). - If the AC voltage is being supplied as determined at (step 307), the AC voltage from the
power supply cable 101 is supplied through the backuppower supply unit 103 only to thesecurity monitoring controller 105 and units 106-109 associated therewith,main controller 110, and line controller 119 (step 315) without using thebattery 104. Then, thesecurity monitoring controller 105 again confirms whether or not themain controller 110 is normally operating (step 313). If themain controller 110 is normally operating, thesecurity monitoring controller 105 further confirms whether or not theline controller 119 is normally operating (step 314). - If the result at (step 314) is normal, the data recorded at (step 304), i.e., the monitoring information (video and audio) is communicated to the
security company 121 through thesecurity monitoring controller 105,main controller 110 and line controller 119 (step 306). - If the determination result at any of (step 313) and (step 314) is abnormal, the security
data communication unit 109 wirelessly transmits the monitoring information (video and audio) to the security company 121 (step 310). - If the vibrations or heat is sensed even once at (step 300), the processing at (step 301) to (step 314) is repeatedly executed until the
security monitoring controller 105 receives monitoring stop information from thesecurity company 121. Here, the monitoring stop information refers to information transmitted by thesecurity company 121 when it determines that the monitoring is no longer required. - If the
main controller 110,line controller 119 and line are normal while the AC input is not normal so that the power output from thebattery 104 is used, thesecurity monitoring controller 105 may operate a portion of themain controller 110 associated with theline controller 119 with the power output from thebattery 104 such that the monitoring information is communicated by theline controller 119 to thesecurity company 121 via the line. However, if any of themain controller 110,line controller 119 and line is not normal, the monitoring information is wirelessly communicated to thesecurity company 121 by the securitydata communication unit 109. - However, when the layout is changed by a clerk in charge for relocation or the like, a security monitoring release switch provided within the
automatic teller machine 100 may be changed over by a special key to release the security monitoring. The special key may be implemented by a key or a secret identification code. In this event, when the security monitoring is resumed associated with the resumed operation of the automatic teller machine at a later time, thesecurity company 121 should be notified that the security monitoring has been resumed. If thesecurity company 121 cannot recognize that the security monitoring has been resumed even after a fixed time period has elapsed, thesecurity company 121 may confirm the automatic teller machine whether it has resumed the operation. - As described above, the predetermined processing can be continued upon detection of an unusual event even if the line of the automatic teller machine is cut or the power to the automatic teller machine is shut down, so that the security management function can be improved for a machine which handles a large amount of cash such as the automatic teller machine.
- Also, since the security monitoring processing can be continued by supplying the power from the battery, tracking of the automatic teller machine is facilitated even if the machine is entirely stolen because the security monitoring can be continued.
- It should be understood that while the foregoing embodiment has been described in connection with an automatic teller machine, the present invention is not limited to the automatic teller machine but can be applied to any automatic trading systems which handle cash or articles such as a cash dispenser, automatic vending machine and so on.
- As described above, according to the present invention, whichever state the automatic teller machine is placed in, any attack from the front or back side thereof can be monitored and monitoring information can be transmitted to the security company, thereby making it possible to sense an unusual event of the automatic teller machine at an early stage and continuously monitor information associated with the unusual event.
- As such, even if the automatic teller machine is entirely stolen, by way of example, the security monitoring can be continued, thereby facilitating the tracking operation and improving the reliability of the automatic teller machine for security.
