Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an identification apparatus and method, and particularly to an identification tag for baggage and the like, and for a method of configuring the tag.
  • a conventional tag for use in identification and tracking of baggage in airports and the like, comprises a self-adhesive strip that is printed with machine readable and human readable information which identifies a baggage item and the flight or journey on which the item is to be carried.
  • the tag is typically printed by an operator at a check-in or baggage drop counter, and attached around a part of the baggage item to create a double-sided tag with machine-readable codes on both sides.
  • the machine readable codes can then be read by an automated baggage transport system and used to look up further details on a database so as to enable the baggage item to be routed to the intended destination.
  • RFID tags may become damaged or may be positioned so that they cannot be read automatically.
  • RFID tags have been proposed to replace paper baggage tags with radio-frequency-identification (RFID) tags, and some airports are now equipped with RFID readers to enable handling of RFID-tagged baggage.
  • RFID tags cannot be read by conventional optical readers, as used in the majority of airports.
  • WO-A-2011/097454 discloses an RFID tag that includes a programmable electronic flexible sheet display, so that a conventional bar code can also be displayed.
  • the tag also carries a printable sheet.
  • a customer may check in a bag online by scanning an online code and the baggage tag code using a cell phone, such that the customer's itinerary is linked to the baggage tag.
  • the tag, itinerary and customer ID are verified and the flight information is written to the tag.
  • An embodiment of the invention comprises an electronic baggage tag that has an electronic display screen on both sides, thus facilitating optical or human reading of the tag.
  • An embodiment of the invention comprises an electronic baggage tag that is writeable via a near-field communication interface.

  • the document may be scanned automatically at the kiosk, and the user may be prompted to provide further details to confirm that he or she is the legitimate bearer of the document, for example by providing biometric data such as a fingerprint or retina scan, by providing a password, or by providing a payment card used to pay for the flight.
  • biometric data such as a fingerprint or retina scan
  • password e.g. frequent flyer
  • step S2 if the user is authenticated, then the data to be written to the tag 1 is retrieved or generated by the computer system or kiosk, for example from the database 22 or another data source.
  • the data may include the name of the user and details of the flight(s) on which the baggage associated with the tag 1 is to be transported.
  • the data may include details of the baggage item 40 to which the tag 1 is to be attached, such as the weight of the item.
  • step S3 the retrieved data are written to the memory 11 of the tag 1, for example by bringing the tag 1 into proximity to an NFC interface of the kiosk or computer system, and the tag 1 then updates the displays 2a and 2b to display the retrieved data as the barcode 4 and/or human-readable information 5.
  • the tag 1 may store a tag ID code that is communicable to external devices via the machine-readable code 4 and/or via the NFC interface 12.
