New Service for Note and Coin Authentication

Dr Tomasz Jagielinski, recently retired from Cummins Allison (latterly part of Crane Payment Innovations, or CPI), has embarked on a new endeavour by forming NXTGenDetect, LLC, a company that will specialise in providing comprehensive consulting and advisory services in the field of security, detection, and authentication, focusing on banknotes, coins, and other high- value items.

Tomasz has a PhD in Material Science and Electronics and an extensive professional background spanning over 30 years with Eastman Kodak, San Diego Magnetics, Cummins Allison (as Senior Vice President Technology) and then, following its acquisition by Crane, CPI (as Senior Director Research).

This background in automated cash and coin handling and payment solutions built on leading-edge sensor technology has given him comprehensive expertise in banknote and coin denominations, and authentication, in particular machine-readable banknote and coin security features.
