Abstract:
In some embodiments, apparatuses and methods are provided to support the testing of card interface systems. Some embodiments provide apparatuses to support a card payment system during robotic testing, comprising: a frame configured to cooperate with the separate card payment system; a card chip guide extending from the frame and comprising a first and second card contact surfaces extending from the frame at a first position such that interior ends of the first and second card contact surfaces are configured to align with a card slot of the card payment system; and a card strip guide extending from the frame and comprises third and fourth card contact surfaces that taper with an alignment slot separating the third and fourth card contact surfaces, wherein the alignment slot is configured to align with a card slide of the card payment system when the card payment system is cooperated with the frame.

Claim (Index 13):
A method of testing a card payment system, comprising:\n repeatedly causing a testing of a chip reader of the card payment system, comprising repeatedly:\n compensating for a first robotic alignment error comprising: directing a robotic holder to cause a test payment card to contact at least one of a first card contact surface and a second card contact surface of a card chip guide of a card payment system support apparatus; and \n directing the test payment card to sliding along the at least one of the first and second card contact surfaces, and causing the test payment card to be inserted into the chip card slot; and \n repeatedly causing a testing of a card strip reader of the card payment system, comprising repeatedly:\n compensating for a second robotic alignment error comprising: directing the robotic holder to cause a second test payment card to contact at least one of a third card contact surface and a fourth card contact surface of a card strip guide of the card payment system support apparatus; and \n directing the test payment card along the at least one of the third card surface and the fourth card surface to be aligned with the card slide and slid into and along the card slide.
