SIGNATURE VERIFICATION SYSTEM ABSTRACT The present invention provides encoding apparatus for scanning a sample signature and means for producing a code indicative of the pattern produced by the signa- ture. The recording of the code on a suitable record medium may be by any of several available commercial methods dependent on the application e.g. by printing on a cheque by embossing on a credit card, by laser or magnetic recording on a strip of recording material on the record medium. Preferably, a number of sample signatures are scanned and the resultant code is a function of all the signatures so as to take into account legitimate variations in the signature. The present invention further provides verifica- tion apparatus for use with a record medium which bears the code which has been produced by said encoding appara- tus and then recorded by some means as previously descri- bed. Also the verification apparatus is for use with medium bearing the submitted signature. The verification apparatus comprises means for reading the code on the record medium, means for generating a first signal indicative of the signature represented by the code means for reading an actual signature, means responsible to said reading means for generating a further code signal representing the actual signature, means for comparing the first signal with the second signal, and means for indicating the-result of the comparison.
