摘要:
The present invention is a dynamic control containment unit for holding a plurality of discrete items, including a signal emitting mechanism associated with each of the plurality of discrete items, an enclosed housing having at least one receptacle accessible by a user and having at least one of the plurality of items contained therein, a passive signal receiving mechanism in communication with the receptacle for receiving signals emanating from the signal emitting mechanism and a securement system configured to prevent unauthorized access to the dynamic control containment unit. A controller is in communication with the signal receiving mechanism and initiates actions based upon the signal content.

The present invention relates to RFID devices, including handheld RFID devices, and applications for such devices. The devices and applications may be used in connection with items that are associated with an RFID tag, and optionally a magnetic security element. The devices and applications are described with particular reference to library materials such as books, periodicals, and magnetic and optical media.
摘要:
In a resonance tag provided with a resonance circuit composed of a capacitive element and an inductive element, the capacitive element is characterized by having a condition under which the capacitance of the capacitive element is reversibly changed by a voltage applied to the resonance circuit and anther condition under which the capacitance of the capacitive element is irreversibly changed by another voltage applied to the resonance circuit.
摘要:
A method for complicating the theft of shopping trolleys (11) which are made available to customers in self-service stores (1). Every shopping trolley (11) is provided with a transponder (12) having the same identification key. At least one monitoring device (14) corresponding with the transponders (120 of the shopping trolleys (11) is provided in at least one suitable position of an exterior area (2) pertaining to the self-service store (1), for example a customer car park (4). When the shopping trolley (11) passes the monitoring device (14), the monitoring device (14) changes the identification key of the transponder (12) of said shopping trolley (11) to a new identification key. When a shopping trolley (11) having a changed identification key passes a predetermined position (10) inside the self-service store (1), a check device (13) associated with the predetermined position (10) changes the changed identification key back to its original identification key, and the change-back process effected by the check device (13) triggers a signal.
摘要:
A hard cover product having an outer liner attached to a pair of sheet members disposed in spaced-apart relation to define a gap. One of the hard sheet members defines a receiving zone that receives a security tag. An inner liner attaches overlying the pair of hard sheet members and concealing the security tag within the receiving zone. The gap between the pair of sheet members defines a spine for the hard cover product, whereby the opposing hard sheets defining a front cover and back cover that move together foldably.
