The established techniques for legal-for-trade registration of weight values
meet the legal requirements, but in praxis they show serious disadvantages. We
report on the first implementation of intrinsically legal-for-trade objects,
namely weight values signed by the scale, that is accepted by the approval
authority. The strict requirements from both the approval- and the
verification-authority as well as the limitations due to the hardware of the
scale were a special challenge. The presented solution fulfills all legal
requirements and eliminates the existing practical disadvantages.Comment: 4 pages, 0 figure
