In Japan, amusement centers, pachinko parlors and video game arcades are very
popular with the young and old alike. Many game systems use medals
(token coins that you can win, like a casino slot machine), which can be
traded in for prizes or cash. Large amusement centers offer a membership
system where users, once enrolled, can deposit their medals in ATM-like machines
for future use. This way, they don't have to cash them in, or take the heavy
medals home every time.
Up until now, the medal saver machines used PIN's for security.
System Get's patented Medal Saver X is the first system in the world to use
biometric face recognition to conveniently and securely store the deposited medals.
Using HumanScan's BioID face recognition technology, the Medal Saver X can
verify a user within one second. This not only adds to the security and
convenience of the system, but the unique design and fact that the users can
see their own face tracked in real time adds to the high-tech and fun
atmosphere of the amusement center.
