Start Up ! Make a Difference !
----------------------------------------
Today’s
Business Today carries following news report :
Highlights
:
· There are about 80 lakh blind or visually impaired people in the country, who are likely to benefit
from the initiative of the central bank.
· The device/mechanism should be able to identify the denomination of a banknote with handheld operation, when the banknote is
held in front of it / near it / inserted in it / scrolled across it, within a
few seconds (preferably 2 seconds or less) and read out in English/Hindi the denomination, said the tender document.
· In case of a software-based solution, the
document said: "The solution can be either total software based capable to run on mobile phones or hardware driven or a combination of both... ."
· Also, it should not require a data connection
and should function in offline mode, as per the document.
· In the case of a hardware-based solution, the
device "should be battery operated, rechargeable, small and handy"
for ease of operation and should not require additional light source including
daylight
· The tender document also said it should be
amply made clear to the user that the device/mechanism does not authenticate
the genuineness or otherwise of the banknote and the user may ascertain the
same separately.

Dear
Start Up :
Here
is your opportunity of a lifetime . Carpe Diem !
On
17 July 2016 , I
had sent following email to Cabinet Ministers / NITI Aayog etc – although it
was in the context of the menace of fake notes :
Fak - e - Mon
Highlights :
· Govt to develop a mobile app , to be aptly
called , " Fak-e-Mon " and insist its pre-install on all smart
phones
·
Whenever presented with a Rs 500 / 1000 note for payment , a
citizen simply takes a photo of that note with his mobile . He has to do
nothing more !
·
Fak-e-Mon transmits that photo to the Central Server of the Treasury which
has the MASTER DATABASE of those unique Serial Numbers of Rs 500 / 1000
currency notes
·
Software compares the Serial Number sent ( as photo ) with
the Database and determines whether that note is Genuine or Fake
·
This information is instantaneously relayed back to the sender
and appears as a GREEN dot ( for genuine note ) or RED dot ( for fake note )
, on his mobile , so that he can refuse to honour it !
·
Fak-e-Mon also transmits the GPS location of the place of transaction , to
figure out " where " are these fake notes entering the circulation
·
Central Server records / logs , full
details of ALL the good and ALL the fake notes processed through each Fak-e-
Mon / mobile phone , to develop CURRENCY VELOCITY and CURRENCY
MAP of India
·
Just print those unique / hidden Serial Numbers on currency
notes with INK containing RFID
micro-sensors
( Yes , these are nano-scale , so no problem to flow with ink ! )
·
Then tell millions of unemployed young Indians :
"Go out on the streets of your city with your GPS / NFC enabled and Fak-e-Mon
installed smart phones
As you
keep walking , now and then , on your mobile's screen , you will see images
of FAKE currency
notes popping up , out of the pockets of total strangers ! Just touch
those images and
earn Rs 10 !
(of course, instantly deposited in your Jan Dhan Bank Account ! Only DBT - no
cash )
·
Pokemon is so passe ! Fak-e-mon is
THE FUTURE !
Is anyone listening ?
=================================================================================
Dear Start Up,
In the 30 months since I sent this email ,
technology has made huge strides ( AI – ML – Big Data etc )
It should not be too difficult for you to
modify my suggestion so that :
# It is useful , not only for
blind persons but also for seeing persons
# It recognizes the “ Denomination “ ( from
Serial Number ) and loudly
announces it
# It need not be used /
activated “ consciously / deliberately “ by any one. Using
BlueTooth / NFC ,
it will “ figure out “ the total number of high
denomination notes
on the person of the user and relay that data to the
central server of IT Dept / ED
etc [
End of BLACK
MONEY / CORRUPTION ]

technology works , read :
