Description

  The present invention relates to a surveying system that electronically measures and processes data using a surveying tool on which meaningful encoded pattern information is printed.

  For example, when ordering clothes and shoes, the dimensions of the person's body and legs are measured to produce clothes and shoes that match the size of the body and legs. Measurement of human body and foot dimensions is done using, for example, a measuring tool such as a tape measure or a ruler. In that case, the measurement tool such as a tape measure or a ruler is applied to the object to be measured and the scale is adjusted. Yes. A record of the data obtained from the surveying is temporarily stored and collected by writing or memorizing, and is written and saved later on paper. When a computer such as a CAD is used, measurement data is input to the computer.

There is a coded paper for optical reading in which meaningful coded pattern information is printed on a paper (see, for example, Patent Document 1). In addition, the designated point corresponding to the drawing which is the object to be measured is input by the main display which is placed on the drawing etc. on which the object to be measured is described and which is composed of a dot matrix liquid crystal display with a touch sensor. Based on the sitting amount data, the calculation unit calculates the straight line, the angle between the two lines, the length of the curve, the area of the region, etc., and displays the calculation result on the main display. (For example, refer to Patent Document 2).
JP-T-2003-511661 JP-A-6-18250

  However, the one of Patent Document 1 is an encoding paper for optical reading, and a device for collecting measurement data using the encoding paper is not disclosed. Further, in Patent Document 2, a straight line, an angle formed by two straight lines, a length of a curved line, a region area, or the like is calculated based on the sitting amount data of the measurement point. There is no idea about how to apply and manage.

  For example, when the measurement data is the size of clothes or shoes, it is necessary to manage the data including the size of which part and the size of the person. When such dimensions are measured using a conventional measuring tool such as a tape measure or a ruler, there is a problem that it takes time to read data and record the collected data, and errors are likely to occur.

  An object of the present invention is to provide a surveying system that can easily perform surveying of measurement data and automatically record the obtained measurement data.

  The surveying system according to the invention of claim 1 is a surveying tool on which encoded pattern information having meaning is printed, and the measurement data is input based on the pattern information of the measuring tool, and the measurement data is collected into a computer. And a measuring tool for transmission.

  The surveying system according to the invention of claim 2 is the surveying tool on which the encoded pattern information having meaning is printed, and the encoded encoded pattern information having meaning and the item column necessary for the survey are printed and surveyed. A data form used for data collection, and a measuring tool that inputs measurement data based on the pattern information of the measurement tool and collects measurement data based on the item field of the data form and transmits it to a computer. It is characterized by that.

  According to the present invention, since measurement data can be digitized at the same time, there is no time difference between measurement data collection and recording, and time can be saved. Further, since the data input is performed by means of encoded pattern information having a meaning by the measuring tool, no labor for special data input is required. Therefore, labor costs can be saved and there is less risk of erroneous data entry. In addition, since there is no need to record data in the surveying process, there is little risk of recording errors. Furthermore, since there is no need to read data with the human eye, there is little risk of reading errors.

  For example, in the case of custom-made clothes and shoes, a series of design work from measurement can be automatically and efficiently performed in cooperation with software such as a design and production system. In addition, it is possible to work on production plans for orders that have been taken without time lag.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below. FIG. 1 is a configuration diagram of a surveying system according to the first embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 1 shows a case where the measuring tool 11 is a tape measure and the circumference of the measurement object 12 is measured with the tape measure. The measurement tool 11 is printed with meaningful encoded pattern information.

  In order to measure the circumference of the measurement object 12, the measurement tool 11 is applied to the measurement object 12 in the same manner as a normal tape measure, and the circumference of the measurement object 12 is rotated once. Then, the pen-shaped measuring tool 13 is used to instruct the measurement start point and measurement end point of the measurement tool 11. The pen tip of the pen-shaped measuring tool 13 has, for example, an external design for easy measurement by replacing the core of the ballpoint pen with a scoring needle. In addition to instructing the measurement start point and measurement end point of the measurement tool 11 with the pen-shaped measurement tool 13, a point or a line may be actually written.

  Thereby, the pen-shaped measuring tool 13 identifies the measurement start point and the measurement end point of the measuring tool 11 from the encoded pattern information, and stores the measurement data in a storage device inside the pen-shaped measuring tool 13. When the measurement data is collected, the transmission instruction sheet 14 is checked, and the measurement data is transmitted to a computer (not shown).

  Here, the pen-shaped measuring tool 13 writes the character position or the image on the paper on which the encoded pattern information having meaning is printed in the same manner as a normal pen, and then the pen position information, the pen locus (writing Order), writing speed, writing pressure, date and time of writing, pen inclination, and other data are recorded based on the encoded pattern information.

  Similarly, encoded pattern information having a meaning is printed on the transmission instruction sheet 14, and the measurement data may be transferred to the computer by checking the transmission instruction sheet 14. It is set in advance as information to be performed. The transmission instruction sheet 14 is formed on a part of the surveying instrument 11 on which the encoded pattern information is printed, and may be integrated with the surveying instrument 11 or separated separately as in the first embodiment. It may be used by printing on a sheet of paper.

  According to the first embodiment, by reading the scale of a normal surveying tool, it is possible to avoid misreading and errors that occur, and to reduce labor during surveying. Moreover, since the collected measurement data can be read by a computer, the measurement data can be used directly without the need for manual input of data into design software or the like.

  Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. In the second embodiment, in addition to the first embodiment, a data form in which meaningful encoded pattern information and an item column necessary for surveying are printed is provided, and the data form is surveyed. It is intended to be used for collecting data. In the second embodiment, a case where the present invention is applied to measurement of clothing order-made will be described as an example.

  In general, the procedure after receiving an order is as follows.

(1) Interview: Listening to the customer's wishes (entry)
(2) Measuring: Collecting and recording size (3) Production: Transmission of data and distribution of personnel by product (4) Try-on: Dimension correction (5) Correction: Return to production department for correction (Data transmission )
(6) Delivery: Filling in receipt signature and evaluation (customer opinion, etc.) Therefore, in the second embodiment, the following operations are performed in each of the steps (1) to (6) described above. .

(1) Interview A data form 15 shown in FIG. 2 is prepared in advance, and a customer name, age, sex, customer request, etc. are entered in the data form 15 using the pen-shaped measuring tool 13. Using the pen-shaped measuring tool 13, if characters and images are written on the data form 15 printed with meaningful encoded pattern information in the same manner as a normal pen, as described above, the position information of the pen Data such as the pen trajectory (writing order), writing speed, writing pressure, writing date and time, and pen tilt are recorded in the storage unit in the pen-shaped measuring tool 13 based on the encoded pattern information. The transmission instruction form 14 is provided integrally with the data form 15 shown in FIG.

(2) Measuring As shown in FIG. 3, the customer's dimensions are measured using the measuring tool 11 and the pen-like measuring tool 13 on which meaningful encoded pattern information is printed. In other words, the measuring tool (measuring tape) 11 on which meaningful encoded pattern information is printed is applied to the body of the customer to be measured in the same manner as a normal measuring tape, and the measuring point M is measured with the pen-shaped measuring tool 13. A point or a line is written at the surveying end point N, or the survey starting point M and the surveying end point N are instructed. Now you can collect one dimension. There are various measuring procedures for determining the dimensions of the data depending on the format design of the data form 15. Examples are given below. In actual design, it is possible to design one or a combination of the design methods described in these examples.

  Example 1: A check is made beside the size name of the collection target printed on the data form 15, and then the collected data is the target data. It is possible to design such that “Pre-collection” and “After-collection” columns are provided, and data collected before checking the dimension name can be specified.

  Example 2: Measuring in the order determined in advance. Generally, veteran people have a habitual order of measurement.

  Example 3: Separately prepare a selection card, and when collecting, check the name of the data to be collected with a pen or click to associate the dimension name with the data to be collected.

  Example 4: Measuring is performed after a location to be measured is specified on the application in cooperation with an application such as a computer.

(3) Production When the measurement is completed, the data collected by the pen-shaped measuring tool 13 is sent from the pen-shaped measuring tool 13 to the computer 16 equipped with management software, as shown in the route R1 in FIG. On the other hand, when the location measured by the business trip service is not a store, data transfer via the mobile terminal 17 such as a mobile phone is also possible as shown in the route R2.

  When the measured data is confirmed, it is transferred to each production department depending on the type of product. Further, the production dimensions of the product are measured with the pen-shaped measuring tool 13 and the measuring tool (measuring tape) 11 at the time of production, and stored in the database system as shown in FIG.

(4) Try-on When a customer's try-on, the dimension required for change in the measuring department is collected by the pen-shaped measuring tool 13 and the measuring tool (measurement tape) 11, and when the required dimension is determined, the data is sent to the production department.

(5) Correction The production department makes corrections based on the sent data, and can save the signature of the person in charge in the system and use it as a quality control record.

(6) Delivery When a product is delivered, a receipt sign, customer opinion, etc. can be entered with the pen-shaped measuring tool 13, and the data can be attached to the customer card of the customer management system and used as an information database.

  According to the second embodiment, in addition to the measuring tool 11 and pen-shaped measuring tool 13 on which meaningful encoded pattern information is printed, the meaningful encoded pattern information is printed and used for surveying. Since the data form 15 on which the necessary item column is printed is used for collecting the surveyed data, it is possible to prevent surveying errors and entry errors. Further, since the collected data is electronic data, it is easy to organize and store by the computer 16, and it is also easy to divert to other systems using these data.

  By eliminating part of the manual input of data to the computer 16, the time difference between receiving the order and reflecting the data in production can be eliminated, and the operation after measuring is easy to automate, so the speed of design and production You can plan up. In addition, since the data collected by customers through business trip services can be sent immediately to the headquarters, production planning can be started immediately.
