METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING PHOTO IDENTIFICATION

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for identifying a photo identification.

SOLUTION: A conveying passage is formed in a conveying device which conveys and puts a photo identification into an identification device installed in a vending machine. The identification device is divided into upper and lower bases through the conveying passage. The upper base has a second light-emitting diode module, and the second light-emitting diode module is installed correspondingly to a second sensor module of the lower base and identifies the authenticity of the photo identification. The identification device reads a birth date from the photo identification through a first light-emitting diode module and a linear sensor in a birth date identification module and determines the age of a photo identification holder. The identification device reads a photo of the photo identification holder through an image reading module installed on the upper base and records or compares identification information of the holder, and thereby the vending machine can vend age-restricted items only to customers with no age restriction.
