Load management system and coin roll processing apparatus
A load management system includes: an image acquisition sensor configured to acquire image data including an analysis target image including a load loaded in a medium processing apparatus; a judgment circuitry configured to judge whether or not the image data is authentic; and an image analysis circuitry configured to analyze the analysis target image to acquire information about the load when the image data is authentic.
1 . A load management system, comprising:
an image acquisition section configured to acquire image data including an analysis target image including a load loaded in a medium processing apparatus;
a judgment circuitry configured to judge whether or not the image data is authentic;
an image analysis circuitry configured to analyze the analysis target image to acquire information about the load when the image data is authentic; and
a communication circuitry configured to establish a communication session with an image-capturing apparatus through a wired connection or short-range wireless communication, the image-capturing apparatus being configured to capture the analysis target image, wherein
based on whether or not the image acquisition section has acquired the image data during the communication session established, the judgment circuitry judges whether or not the image data is authentic.
2 . The load management system according to claim 1 , wherein:
the medium processing apparatus has an apparatus identifier that allows the medium processing apparatus to be recognized and whose image is capable of being captured, and
based on identifier information acquired from the image of the apparatus identifier included in the analysis target image, the judgment circuitry judges whether or not the image data is authentic.
3 . The load management system according to claim 1 , wherein:
the image data is provided with a time stamp, and the time stamp is issued by a time stamp issuing server and certifies time at which the analysis target image is captured by an image-capturing apparatus, and
based on the time stamp, the judgment circuitry judges whether or not the image data is authentic.
4 . The load management system according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a coin roll processing apparatus as the medium processing apparatus, wherein:
the load is a coin roll, and
the information is information about a type and a number of the coin roll.
5 . The load management system according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a money processing apparatus as the medium processing apparatus, wherein:
the load is a cassette for storing money, and
the cassette has a cassette identifier that allows the cassette to be recognized and whose image is capable of being captured.
6 . The load management system according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a storage in which a coin roll as the load is stored, the storage being located at the medium processing apparatus;
an openable and closable transparent cover covering an opening in the storage; and
an identifier displayed at a position where an image of the identifier is capable of being captured together with the coin roll stored in the storage and whose image is capable of being captured via the cover.
7 . The load management system according to claim 6 , further comprising:
a sensor configured to detect a change in an open or closed state of the cover.
8 . A load management system, comprising:
control circuitry, wherein the control circuitry is configured to:
acquire image data including an analysis target image including a load loaded in a medium processing apparatus;
judge whether or not the image data is authentic;
when the image data is judged to be authentic, analyze the analysis target image to acquire information about the load; and
establish a communication session with an image-capturing apparatus through a wired connection or short-range wireless communication, the image-capturing apparatus being configured to capture the analysis target image,
wherein, based on whether or not the control circuitry has acquired the image data during the communication session established, the control circuitry judges whether or not the image data is authentic.
