    Abstract: Techniques for managing production and reuse of a recyclable material are disclosed. Combination of markers introduced into one or more ingredient material components of recyclable materials are used to indicate one or more properties of at least one of the ingredient material components e.g., a type of material used, percentage of the material type in the recyclable material, and suchlike. A signal obtained from a product comprising the recyclable material can be processed to detect presence or absence of the combination of markers therein. Based on the detection of the combination of markers, information indicative of the one or more properties of the at least one ingredient material component is determined, and based on the information it is decided either about a suitable recycling process for reusing the at least one ingredient material component, or a suitable disposal process for disposing the product.

    Abstract: Techniques for monitoring production and reuse of a recyclable material, and/or determining a currency or quality measure thereof, are disclosed. In the disclosed embodiments one or more markers are introduced into ingredient material components of the recyclable material, where the one or more markers being indicative of one or more properties of at least one of the ingredient material components. Information indicative of at least the one or more properties is recorded in a database comprising a plurality of records, each associated with at least one of the one or more markers. A signal obtained from a product comprising the recyclable material is processed for determining presence of at least one of the one or more markers, and based thereon the information recorded in at least one of the database records associated therewith, and a quality or currency measure of at least one of the ingredient material components of the recyclable material comprised in the product is determined based on the one or more properties indicative by the information

    Abstract: The present invention relates to an access control system, an access object and a method for access control. The access control system comprises an access request receiving device being configured and operable for receiving an access object; the access request receiving device comprising an emitter configured and operable for irradiating the access object with a radiation having a wavelength in the range of about 10″12 and 10″9 m and a detector configured and operable for detecting a response signal from the irradiated access object; a control circuit being configured and operable to receive the response signal from the access request receiving device and process the response signal to identify spectral features indicative of an XRF signature of the access object; wherein the control circuit is adapted to generate an unlocking signal for switching a module device between a locked state and an unlocked state upon identification of the XRF signature.

    Abstract: The present invention discloses a novel XRF analyzer capable of simultaneously identifying the presence of a marking composition in a plurality of objects by modulating/varying the intensity of the excitation beam on the different objects and measuring the secondary radiation thereof. The XRF analyzer comprises a radiation emitter assembly adapted for emitting at least one X-Ray or Gamma-Ray excitation radiation beam having a spatial intensity distribution for simultaneously irradiating the plurality of objects; a radiation detector for detecting secondary radiation X-Ray signals arriving from a plurality of objects in response to irradiation of the objects by X-Ray or Gamma-Ray radiation, and providing data indicative of spatial intensity distribution of the detected data X-Ray signals on the plurality of objects; and a signal reading processor in communication with the detector, the processor being adapted for receiving and processing the detected response X-Ray signals to verify presence of the marking composition included at least one surface of each object of the plurality objects.

    Abstract: Methods and systems for verifying compatibility of components (e.g. parts or devices) of an electronic system are disclosed. In certain embodiments the method includes: irradiating a first and second components presumably associated with the electronic system, with XRF exciting radiation, and detecting one or more XRF response signals indicative of a first and a second XRF signatures, emitted from the first and second components in response to the irradiation. Then the first and second XRF signatures are processed to determine whether they are associated with respectively a first and second XRF marking compositions on the first and second components, and the compatibility of the first and second components to the electronic system is determined/verified based on the correspondence between the first and a second XRF signatures/marking. Certain embodiments also disclose electronic systems including at least a first and a second electronic components/devices respectively having the first and second XRF marking compositions that enable verification of compatibility of the components. Certain embodiments disclose techniques for pairing the first and second components (e.g. devices) based a correspondence between the first and second XRF signatures/markings thereof. Certain embodiments disclose various calibration techniques for calibrating the XRF measurements of XRF markings applied to different substrate materials of the electronic components.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for managing transactions of physical objects are disclosed. The system is connectable to a first distributed ledger adapted to record object transactions associated with transactions of one or more physical objects between parties. The system includes a second distributed ledger adapted to record data indicative of object handling operations carried out with respect to the one or more physical objects; and an object handling management module adapted to authenticate handling operations carried out with respect to the one or more physical objects. The object handling management module is configured and operable for obtaining parameters of execution of the handling operations, authenticating the parameters of execution of the handling operations, and recording the authenticated handling operations in the second distributed ledger. The system thereby enables recordation of the object transactions associated with the one or more physical objects upon authenticating that the parameters of execution of the handling operations that are carried out with respect to the one or more physical objects satisfy one or more respective predetermined conditions.
