A casino game is implemented on the basis of a wireless mobile player unit adapted to play poker, slots, bingo and other casino games. The unit obtains random game outcomes from a central computer over a radio channel utilizing a data encryption technique relying on an authentication key. The authentication key is downloaded into the unit from the central computer via a secure wired communication channel while the unit is stored, recharged and locked in a dispensing kiosk controlled by the central computer. A player rents the unit from the kiosk, plays it throughout the casino and returns the unit to the kiosk to obtain prizes and / or bonus points earned. The central computer tracks the inventory of the units in the kiosk and on the casino floor.

Tamper-resistant authentication techniques for identification documents
The present invention provides techniques that are helpful in resolving the authentication of an identification document or banknote. The document or banknote includes a security enhancer. The enhancer can be a graphic or artwork design, or can be realized with line art. In the case of an identification document, the spatial characteristics of the security enhancer are preferably altered in accordance with information contained in the identification document. For example, if the ID document includes a photograph, a hashing algorithm will reduce the photograph to a number. The number is used to set a repeated spacing distance of elements in the security enhancer. The repeated spacing yields an identifiable frequency response that is related to the identification document photograph.

A printing apparatus and method for printing receipts and for controlling the cutting of each receipt in succession from a recording medium such as print paper at an appropriate position determined from the print data received from a host computer. The printing apparatus 50 prints first print data representing transaction information with a paper cut command appended thereto and second print data representing additional information from print data received from a host computer 40. A first control unit 521 prints the first print data and delays executing the paper cut command added to the first print data when first print data is received from the host computer. When print data is received while execution of the paper cut command is delayed, a print data detection unit 522 determines the type of print data received based on the presence or absence of an identifier in the received print data. If the received print data is recognized as second print data, a second control unit 523 prints the received second print data and then executes the paper cut command. If the received print data is determined not to be second print data, the second control unit 523 executes the paper cut command before printing the received print data.

IC card and authentication method in electronic ticket distribution system
InactiveUS8306919B2Strict securityReduce necessityMultiple keys/algorithms usageDigital data processing detailsDistribution systemPublic key cryptosystem
Between an IC card (1) and a electronic ticket server (2), upon purchasing an electronic ticket a public key cryptosystem is employed for a mutual authentication to keep a strict security, and a shared secret between the electronic ticket and a ticket collecting machine is sent on a secure channel as well as the electronic ticket. Upon usage of the electronic ticket, the IC card (1) and the ticket collecting machine (6) mutually judge whether they carry out the mutual authentication by using a public key cryptosystem or a symmetric key cryptosystem. When they determine to use the symmetric key cryptosystem, they carry out the mutual authentication by using the shared secret exchanged beforehand. When they determine to use the public key cryptosystem, they carry out the mutual authentication by using the same method as that used upon purchasing the electronic ticket. This method of mutual authentication can dynamically switch cryptosystems for cryptographic communication between the IC cards or between the IC card and a tamper resistant device having an equivalent function to an IC card installed in related servers or the ticket collecting machine, based on their judgment of the types of bearers, the required degree of security and the required processing speed.
