Abstract
A system and technique may be used to classify a note according to a version of the note. An example technique may include receiving, at a note handling device, a note, capturing identifying information about the note, and determining, using the identifying information, an identifier corresponding to the note, the identifier including a type, a value, an issuer, and a version of the note. The example technique may include classifying the note according to a rule associated with the identifier, the rule indicating a classification for the note and automatically sorting the note, at the note handling device, into a particular bin of the note handling device based on the classification.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- receiving, at a note handling device, a note;
- capturing, at the note handling device, identifying information about the note;
- determining, using the identifying information, an identifier corresponding to the note, the identifier including a type, a value, an issuer, and a version of the note;
- classifying the note according to a rule associated with the identifier, the rule indicating a classification for the note based on the issuer matching one of a plurality of issuers;
- and
- automatically sorting the note, at the note handling device, into a particular bin among a plurality of bins of the note handling device based on the classification, the particular bin corresponding to the issuer.
A note handling device comprising:
- a plurality of bins including a bin corresponding to an issuer;
- a slot configured to receive a note;
- at least one conveyor configured to move notes from the slot to the bin of the plurality of bins;
- a camera configured to capture identifying information about the note;
- processing circuitry;
- and
- memory, including instructions, which when executed by the processing circuitry, cause the processing circuitry to perform operations to:
- determine, using the identifying information, an identifier corresponding to the note, the identifier including a type, a value, the issuer, and a version of the note;
- classify the note according to a rule associated with the identifier, the rule indicating a classification for the note based on the issuer matching one of a plurality of issuers;
- and
- automatically output control instructions to cause the at least one conveyor to convey the note into the bin corresponding to the issuer based on the classification.
