Abstract
Description
La présente invention est relative à un procédé de gestion de produit qui, à partir d'une lecture de code à barres préalablement inscrit sur le produit ou sur son emballage, permet une information complète et exploitable des données codées. The present invention relates to a product management method which, on the basis of a bar code reading previously written on the product or on its packaging, allows complete and usable information of the coded data.
A vocation commerciale, ce procédé peut être exploité en amont par un professionnel comme source d'information et de formation quel que soit le type de distribution envisagé, ou en aval directement par le public, comme source d'information terminale sur le lieu de vente. With a commercial vocation, this process can be used upstream by a professional as a source of information and training whatever the type of distribution envisaged, or downstream directly by the public, as a source of terminal information at the point of sale. .
Les procédés connus actuellement qui utilisent le couple code à barres - lecteur optique restituent à l'utilisateur tout ou partie des informations suivantes (prix au kg ou au litre, date d'arrivage, date de consommation, quantité) mais ils ne rendent pas compte d'informations beaucoup plus détaillées comme les matériaux utilisés, les performances dans une application sportive, les compositions du produit et leurs propriétés, leur posologie, leurs contre-indications dans une application du domaine de la santé ; cependant, quel que soit le champ d'application visé, les messages produits sont sous la forme d'une suite de caractères alphanumériques. The processes currently known which use the barcode-optical reader pair restore to the user all or part of the following information (price per kg or per liter, arrival date, consumption date, quantity) but they do not account for much more detailed information such as the materials used, the performance in a sports application, the compositions of the product and their properties, their dosage, their contraindications in a health application; however, whatever the intended field of application, the messages produced are in the form of a series of alphanumeric characters.
Il n'est pas possible actuellement d'associer à ce texte une image, un contenu musical ou une voix. It is not currently possible to associate an image, a musical content or a voice with this text.
La présente invention vise un procédé et une installation pour la mise en oeuvre de celui-ci et se propose donc d'améliorer les systèmes précédents par l'adjonction, en parallèle au lecteur optique de code à barres, d' un terminal qui puisse afficher des informations sous forme d'une pluralité d'images ou de graphismes, éventuellement associés à un son (musique, voix). The present invention relates to a method and an installation for the implementation thereof and therefore proposes to improve the above systems by adding, in parallel to the optical bar code reader, a terminal which can display information in the form of a plurality of images or graphics, possibly associated with sound (music, voice).
A cet effet, le procédé de gestion se caractérise en ce qu'il comprend tout d'abord un lecteur optique qui est chargé de saisir la suite de code-barres transcrite sur les produits à identifier, l'information est aussitôt envoyée soit par des moyens matériels entre le système d'interface et un terminal, soit, par une interrogation à distance grâce à une liaison immatérielle notamment choisie dans les liaisons par infrarouge, hertzienne, boucle électromagnétique, lumineuse à un ordinateur central qui aura été préalablement téléchargé éventuellement par voie hertzienne ou optique par un centre serveur, ce dernier se charge de compléter l'information alphanumérique contenue dans la mémoire de l'ordinateur par un ensemble de messages visuels, musicaux, ou audio (voix) qui seront distillés ultérieurement sur une pluralité de moniteurs ou de terminaux en contact avec l'utilisateur final. To this end, the management method is characterized in that it first of all comprises an optical reader which is responsible for entering the series of bar codes transcribed on the products to be identified, the information is immediately sent either by material means between the interface system and a terminal, or, by a remote interrogation thanks to an immaterial link in particular chosen in the connections by infrared, hertzian, electromagnetic loop, light to a central computer which will have been previously downloaded possibly by way wireless or optical by a server center, the latter is responsible for supplementing the alphanumeric information contained in the computer memory by a set of visual, musical, or audio (voice) messages which will be distilled later on a plurality of monitors or terminals in contact with the end user.
D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de la présente invention ressortiront de la description faite ci-après, en référence aux dessins annexés qui en illustrent un exemple de réalisation dépourvu de tout caractère limitatif. Other characteristics and advantages of the present invention will emerge from the description given below, with reference to the appended drawings which illustrate an embodiment thereof devoid of any limiting character.
Ainsi, la figure unique est une vue en synoptique des principaux éléments servant à la mise en oeuvre du procédé de gestion. Thus, the single figure is a block diagram of the main elements used for the implementation of the management method.
Selon un exemple préféré de réalisation de ce procédé de gestion des informations contenues dans la suite des codes-barres imprimés sur ou dans les produits offerts à la vente, l'utilisateur, à l'aide scanner 1, balaye le support imprimé, l'information lue par le rayon optique est analysée et envoyée vers un ordinateur 2 situé soit sur le lieu de vente et à proximité du produit, soit vers un système 3 plus important qui gère plusieurs interfaces 4 disposées en réseau. Le système informatique retranscrit l'information et la dirige vers une pluralité de moniteurs 5 ou de terminaux graphiques sur lesquels le consommateur grand public ou professionnel dispose du contenu du message. According to a preferred embodiment of this method for managing the information contained in the series of bar codes printed on or in the products offered for sale, the user, using a scanner 1, scans the printed medium, the information read by the optical ray is analyzed and sent to a computer 2 located either at the point of sale and close to the product, or to a larger system 3 which manages several interfaces 4 arranged in a network. The computer system transcribes the information and directs it to a plurality of monitors 5 or graphic terminals on which the general public or professional consumer has the content of the message.
Le système 3 informatique est préalablement téléchargé par un centre serveur 6, par liaison hertzienne, téléphonique ou optique ; ce centre serveur véhicule les informations traditionnelles textuelles telles que notamment le prix, la quantité, le délai, mais aussi des images provenant d'une base de données 7 d'images qui sont produites par une régie technique extérieure ainsi que des messages audio 8. The computer system 3 is downloaded beforehand by a server center 6, by radio, telephone or optical link; this host center conveys traditional textual information such as, in particular, the price, the quantity, the time frame, but also images originating from a database 7 of images which are produced by an external technical agency as well as audio messages 8.
L'utilisateur dispose sur un ou plusieurs écrans d'un message beaucoup plus complet, ces moniteurs 5 génèrent les informations de base mais surtout des renseignements complémentaires tels que le mode d'emploi s'il s'agit d'un bien de consommation, ou les premières notes de musique s'il s'agit par exemple d'un disque. Il est bien entendu que l'ensemble de ce type d'informations peut être mêlé et le contenu changé à tout moment par le centre serveur 6 principal. On a aussi la possiblité de prévoir un téléchargement d'informations différent suivant le type de population visée, leur contenu étant spécifique aux habitudes du site. The user has a much more complete message on one or more screens, these monitors 5 generate the basic information but above all additional information such as the user manual if it is a consumer good, or the first musical notes if it is for example a disc. It is understood that all of this type of information can be mixed and the content changed at any time by the main server center 6. We also have the possibility of providing for downloading different information depending on the type of target population, their content being specific to the habits of the site.
L'émetteur de l'information possède un certain nombre d'outils qui lui permettent de concevoir des scenarii mêlant le son, l'image, le texte, pour la promotion d'un produit, l'alerte du consommateur, la formation du professionnel. The transmitter of information has a certain number of tools which allow him to conceive scenarios mixing sound, image, text, for the promotion of a product, the alert of the consumer, the training of the professional. .
Le procédé de gestion comprend un ordinateur 2 possédant un ou plusieurs microprocesseurs 9, un ensemble de ports de sortie 10 pour les périphériques tels que notamment les terminaux graphiques 5, l'interface optique 1 du code à barres, les écrans tactiles, les disques vidéo 11 pour la base de données 7 images, une ou plusieurs sorties sons, une mémoire centrale de plusieurs
Mégabytes pour le stockage des images avant leur transfert par le système vers les terminaux graphiques. L'ordinateur central est en outre muni d'une sortie Asynchrone avec un modem pour la communication avec le centre de téléchargement 6 principal.The management method comprises a computer 2 having one or more microprocessors 9, a set of output ports 10 for the peripherals such as in particular the graphic terminals 5, the optical interface 1 of the bar code, the touch screens, the video disks 11 for the 7-image database, one or more sound outputs, a central memory of several
Megabytes for the storage of images before their transfer by the system to graphic terminals. The central computer is furthermore provided with an Asynchronous output with a modem for communication with the main download center 6.
Il demeure bien entendu que la présente invention n'est pas limitée aux exemples de réalisation décrits et représentés cidessus, mais qu'elle en englobe toutes les variantes. It remains to be understood that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described and shown above, but that it encompasses all variants thereof.
