ANTI-COUNTERFEIT READER

摘要

A novel and practical on-the-go (OTG) USB-compatible anti-counterfeit reader with an emitter circuit that outputs a first signal to an object under test that will emit a second signal, and a receiver circuit that will detect the second signal and converts it to an electric signal to be further analyzed is disclosed. The emitter and receiver circuits are in electronic communication with a control and identification circuit which controls the emitter output duration and intensity and includes programming logic to authenticate the object under test based on the specific reading of the electric signal received. An interface conversion circuit is in communication with the control and identification circuit and is configured for level conversion of data between the control and identification circuit and an interface. A method of utilizing an OTG, USB-compatible anti-counterfeit reader to quickly and efficiently authenticate products is also provided.

主权项

1. An anti-counterfeit reader comprising
an emitter circuit that outputs an excitation signal to an object under test which will emit an emission signal when excited by the excitation signal, a receiver circuit that receives the emission signal and converts it to an electric signal, a control and identification circuit that is connected and in electronic communication with the emitter and receiver circuits so as to control emitter output, an interface connected to and in electronic communication with the control and identification circuit and an interface conversion circuit, whereby the interface conversion circuit is configured for level conversion of data resulting from the electric signal, and whereby the electric signal is analyzed to confirm or deny an authenticity result of the object under test via the control and identification circuit, and whereby the interface outputs the authenticity result.
