Sheet counting apparatus, sheet counting method and transaction apparatus
The bill counter has thickness detection units 31, 32, and 33 for detecting the thickness of a bill passing through a transport passage. The thickness detection units 31, 32, and 33 are separately placed on the transport passage. Waveform outputs from the thickness detection units 31, 32, and 33, provided by detecting the thicknesses of predetermined parts of bill passing through the transport passage are compared with waveform data previously stored in a storage unit and the number of bills passing through the transport passage is determined.
