Ticket validation system |
摘要 |
A ticket reading system comprising a portable head section with an aperture and means for removably affixing the head section to a stationary fixture; in the head section, a camera with a field of view over the aperture to read visible code elements of a ticket; an RFID antenna and module adjacent to the aperture to read RFID/NFC code elements from a device or tag; a wireless network communication module to communicate data packets among a processor and a wireless network access point; means for ticket validation feedback; instructions which cause: receiving a ticket identifier value from the camera or RFID module; sending a request via the wireless network for a server computer to validate the ticket identifier value; receiving a ticket validation response from the server computer; based upon the response, driving the means for providing ticket validation feedback to generate either valid response feedback or invalid response feedback. |

1. A ticket reading system comprising:
a portable head section comprising an aperture and means for removably affixing the head section to a stationary fixture; in the portable head section, a camera mounted with a field of view over the aperture and configured to read visible code elements of a ticket; a radio-frequency identification (RFID) antenna and RFID module adjacent to the aperture and configured to read RFID or NFC code elements from a mobile computing device or RFID tag; a computer comprising at least a processor coupled to a non-transitory computer-readable storage device; a wireless network communication module configured to communicate data packets among the processor and a wireless network access point; means for providing ticket validation feedback; wherein the storage device comprises one or more sequences of instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform: receiving a ticket identifier value from one of the camera or the RFID module; forming and sending a request via the wireless network communication module for a server computer to validate the ticket identifier value; receiving a ticket validation response from the server computer via the wireless network communication module; based upon the ticket validation response, driving the means for providing ticket validation feedback to generate either valid response feedback or invalid response feedback. |
