[0033] Furthermore, the processing module is further configured to adjust the image acquisition resolution of the image sensor 2 in response to the operation signal.

[0034] In this embodiment: the image acquisition resolution can be adjusted in three levels, namely: 100 DPI, 200 DPI, and 300 DPI.

[0039] In this embodiment, two foreign body sensors 3 are provided, and the two foreign body sensors 3 are located on both sides of the detection channel 12 to detect whether the front and back surfaces of the banknotes are abnormal.

[0040] In the accompanying drawings, two foreign body sensors 3 are arranged opposite to each other. In other embodiments, the two foreign body sensors 3 may be arranged staggered.

[0041] The processing module is used for generating a judgment result based on a comparison result of the second light reflection data and the first light reflection data, taking the first light reflection data as a reference.

[0045] In one embodiment: when the detection result is normal, the fork 4 controls the storage box 5 to be connected to the detection channel 12; when the detection result is abnormal, the fork 4 controls the storage box 6 to be connected to the detection channel 12; That is, normal banknotes enter the storage box 5, and abnormal banknotes enter the storage box 6.

[0046] The state shown in the figure: the shift fork 4 allows the banknotes to enter the storage box 5; When the shift fork 4 rotates counterclockwise to a set angle, the banknotes can enter the storage box 6 .
