Tamper device

1. A device for attachment to an object associated with a specific user for determining whether the device has been tampered with by said specific user, the device comprising:

a body, removably attachable to an object, and configured to maintain a substantially fixed form or shape when attached to an object, for restricting access to said object;

a transducer, connected to the body, configured to detect a change of form of the body; and

an indicator or controller, connected to the transducer, configured to store the position of the body when attached to an object and indicate if the body has changed position after it has been attached, the indicator or controller comprising a memory adapted to store a unique device identifier, wherein the device identifier is associated with the specific user; and

wherein the indicator or controller is adapted to indicate the unique device identifier after tampering.

2. A device according to claim 1 , wherein the body has an adhesive for adhesively attachment of the device to an object.

3. A device according to claim 1 , wherein the transducer or actuator has a sensor configured to detect movement of the body from the attached position.

4. A device according to claim 1 , wherein the body is attachable to an object such that removal of the body requires actuation of the transducer or actuator.

5. A device according to claim 1 , wherein the transducer, actuator or sensor has a piezoelectric component.

6. A device according to claim 1 , wherein the transducer or actuator is incorporated with the body that is attachable to the object and removal therefrom, after attachment, requires the transducer of the device to be actuated.

7. A device according to claim 1 , wherein the controller has a transmitter configurable to transmit a signal from the device indicating that the body has been moved from an attached position to another position.

8. A device according to claim 7 , wherein the indicator is a controller having a receiver configured to receive an interrogation signal and is further configured to respond to said interrogation signal to indicate whether the body has changed position.

9. A device according to claim 1 , wherein the body is a sticker encompassing the transducer and for attachment to an image recording apparatus to inhibit said apparatus from recording an image when attached thereto.

10. A device according to claim 9 , wherein the body is adapted for sticking over one or more image recording apparatus lens or sensor.

11. A device according to claim 10 , wherein the body is made of paper, plastic or rubber.

12. A device according to claim 1 , wherein the transducer comprises a light sensor.

13. A device according to claim 1 , wherein the device is a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag.

14. A system configured to interface with the device of claim 1 , the system comprising:

a reader adapted to remotely connect to the device to determine whether the transducer has been activated;

a database holding details of a plurality of devices and map said details to the user identification information; and

a reporting unit adapted to be connected to the reader and to the database for determining whether the device has been tampered with, query the database using the details of the device for retrieving the user identification information, and for generating an alarm signal comprising the user identification information indicative of tampering of the device.
