20130300694 | STYLUS BARREL FOR RECEIVING A STYLUS - A stylus barrel includes a barrel tip configured to input handwritten user data into or on an electronic input field. A chamber is defined within the stylus barrel and is configured to accommodate and retain a stylus that is also configured to input handwritten user data into or on an electronic input field. The stylus and/or the stylus barrel may include a fastener that detachably fastens the stylus within the chamber of the stylus barrel. | 11-14-2013 |
20130111600 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR SENSING AND RESPONDING TO AN UNAUTHORIZED OPENING OF A BIOMETRIC TRAIT CAPTURE DEVICE | 05-02-2013 |
20110231666 | ELECTRONIC SIGNATURE METHOD AND DEVICE - An electronic signature method uses a signature generation unit with a memory that is spatially separated from a data processing device. At least one biometric trait of a person who will electronically sign an electronic dataset is captured, and an electronic biometric dataset is generated based thereon. The biometric dataset is encrypted using a randomly generated value. Subsequently, the encrypted biometric data are transmitted to the data processing device, a first checksum is generated in the data processing device for the encrypted biometric data and the electronic dataset, and the first checksum is transmitted from the data processing device to the signature generation unit. The random value is encrypted using the first checksum, and the encryption result is further encrypted using the stored key. The result of this is then transmitted to the data processing device. | 09-22-2011 |
20110185184 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR ELECTRONICALLY CAPTURING A HANDWRITTEN SIGNATURE AND SAFEGUARDING BIOMETRIC DATA - A method and apparatus for encrypting an electronic document involves a computer having a first monitor and a signature capture apparatus configured to capture a handwritten signature on a second monitor. A hash sum of the electronic document generated in the computer is transmitted to the signature capture apparatus. The electronic document and the first hash sum thereof are displayed on the first monitor. The first hash sum is also displayed on the second monitor. After electronically capturing the handwritten signature, the signature data and the first hash sum are encrypted in the signature capture apparatus and then transmitted to the computer. The encrypted signature data, the first hash sum and the signed document are stored on a computer-readable medium. | 07-28-2011 |
20110179289 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR ELECTRONICALLY CAPTURING A HANDWRITTEN SIGNATURE USING EMBEDDING TECHNIQUE - A method and apparatus for encrypting an electronic document involves a computer having a first monitor and a signature capture apparatus configured to capture a handwritten signature on a second monitor. A hash sum of the electronic document generated in the computer is transmitted to the signature capture apparatus. The electronic document and the first hash sum thereof are displayed on the first monitor. The first hash sum is also displayed on the second monitor. After electronically capturing the handwritten signature, the signature data are encrypted using the first hash sum. A digital signature image is generated in the signature capture apparatus and the first hash sum is embedded therein. The embedded first hash sum is then extracted in the computer. If the extracted hash sum is identical to the first hash sum generated in the computer apparatus, the encrypted signature data and the signed document are stored. | 07-21-2011 |
