Introduction
The use of electronically captured signatures has become common for Point of Service
(POS) applications. Electronic signature capture reduces transaction time, eliminates
sorting & sending paper, provides convenient electronic storage & transmission, and gives
legal accountability (non-repudiation) for POS transactions.
uSign™ is an electronic signature capture device with a back lighted graphic LCD display
and touch sensitive screen that is the signature panel. Authors can view their signatures in
real time during the signing process. Signatures are compressed and provided to a Host
system for signature & data storage. The LCD display allows for interactive text, which
supports pen-tap commands and function selections. The interactive Host operations
allow selections and navigations through transactions with just the stylus.
The LCD & touch sensitive screen are surrounded in a plastic housing. The housing
provides a tethered non-electronic stylus. The stylus is fastened to the housing in a way to
allow stylus replacement. A mounting plate secures the uSign housing to a counter top or
other mounting surface. An overlay covers and protects the signature area of the uSign
display. The overlay is removable allowing replacement if the signature area becomes
worn from stylus use. Customer specific front overlay designs are possible as needed by
an application.
The signature pad enclosed in a stylish housing. This uSign is a POS System level
product intended for signature capture at a transaction counter. A convenient palm rest
area below the signature panel provides support during the signing process.
