In the traditional operation mode, the supermarket shelf uses paper price tags for displaying information such as commodity price, specification and the like. The paper price tag has low cost, and can be randomly replaced at the position corresponding to goods on the goods shelf. But the paper price tag has less bearing content and insufficient attraction, and cannot automatically count data information such as the number of commodity types in the supermarket. The electronic price tag is placed below the commodity corresponding to the goods shelf, and like the position of the traditional price tag, the electronic price tag can display price information of the commodity, and can dynamically download and update price tag contents from a service end, so that the electronic price tag is more convenient and the contents are more abundant.
When updating the electronic price tag, on the premise of knowing the position of each electronic price tag on each shelf, the content of the shelf price tag is replaced in the background through a network, data is issued to a control center edge server of the electronic price tag of the supermarket shelf, and the electronic price tag corresponding to different commodities on the shelf is issued and updated in real time through a terminal APP in the control center. However, electronic price tags also have some unique disadvantages, such as some electronic price tags need to be wired to connect with a power supply, some LED electronic price tags are connected in series to communicate through a bus serial port, at present, many electronic price tags are fixed on a shelf and are difficult to replace in position, or are relatively costly to replace, and some electronic price tags which are movable or replace in position have the following problems: 1) The electronic price tag control terminal of the goods shelf must be connected with the network, and the network is stable; 2) The server must know the position of each electronic price tag in the goods shelf in advance, otherwise, the electronic price tags cannot be in one-to-one correspondence with the goods.

FIG. 1 is a system block diagram illustrating a method and apparatus for electronic price tag updating, according to an example embodiment.
The server 105 may be a server providing various services, such as a background management server (by way of example only) providing support for an electronic price update system operated by a user with the terminal devices 101, 102, 103. The background management server may analyze the received data such as the electronic price tag update request, and feedback the processing result (e.g. the matching result, the readjusted hardware address, and the price tag content configuration information—only examples) to the terminal device.
The server 105 may, for example, obtain price tag content configuration information and hardware addresses for a plurality of electronic price tags; server 105 may match the price tag content configuration information with the hardware address, e.g., according to a predetermined rule; the server 105 may adjust the price tag content configuration information or the hardware address, for example, according to the matching result. Server 105 may, for example, re-match the adjusted tag content configuration information with the hardware address to complete the updating of the plurality of electronic tags.
The server 105 may be an entity server, and may be composed of a plurality of servers, for example, and a part of the server 105 may be used as an electronic price tag update task submitting system in the present disclosure, for example, for acquiring a task to execute an electronic price tag update command; and a portion of the server 105 may also be used, for example, as an electronic price tag update system in the present disclosure, for obtaining price tag content configuration information and hardware addresses for a plurality of electronic price tags; matching the price tag content configuration information with the hardware address according to a preset rule; adjusting the price tag content configuration information or the hardware address according to the matching result; and re-matching the adjusted price tag content configuration information with the hardware address to finish updating the plurality of electronic price tags.
It should be noted that, the method for updating an electronic price tag provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure may be executed by the server 105, and accordingly, the device for updating an electronic price tag may be disposed in the server 105. And the requesting terminals provided for the user to submit the electronic price tag update task and obtain the electronic price tag update result are typically located in the terminal devices 101, 102, 103.
According to the method and the device for updating the electronic price tag, the display content of the electronic price tag can be updated accurately offline or online under the condition that the actual placement position of the electronic price tag is not acquired.
FIG. 2 is a flow chart illustrating a method of electronic price tag updating, according to an exemplary embodiment. The electronic price tag updating method 20 at least includes steps S202 to S208.
As shown in fig. 2, in S202, tag content configuration information and hardware addresses of a plurality of electronic tags are acquired. The electronic price tags are scattered and placed on the goods shelves and used for displaying the goods information in the corresponding goods placing positions. Each electronic price tag has a hardware address. The plurality of hardware addresses have a ranking order, which may be a default ranking order or a ranking order of the hardware addresses at the time of last update. An array of hardware addresses may be generated based on an order of arrangement of the plurality of hardware addresses. The price tag content configuration information can be generated according to user instructions when a user (such as supermarket staff) configures commodity price tag information. The price tag content configuration information also has an arrangement sequence, and according to the arrangement sequence of the hardware address and the price tag content configuration information, the two are in one-to-one correspondence, namely, are matched according to the sequence. When updating the electronic price tag, the user inputs the content which is expected to be displayed in the electronic price tag in turn according to the order of placing the commodities, and the content displayed by the electronic price tag comprises but is not limited to commodity names, prices, participating activities and the like. The arrangement order of the price tag content configuration information can be the same as the arrangement order of the commodities, or the price tag content configuration information can be regarded as a virtual electronic price tag which corresponds to the electronic price tag of the entity, is the same as the arrangement order of the electronic price tag of the entity, and has a difference with the arrangement order of the commodities. It should be understood that the order of the tag content configuration information is not particularly limited by the present disclosure.
In S204, the tag content configuration information and the hardware address are matched according to a predetermined rule. The price tag content configuration information and the hardware address are respectively provided with an arrangement sequence, and the preset rule is to match the price tag content configuration information and the hardware address one by one according to the arrangement sequence. For example, the tag content configuration information arranged in the nth bit is matched with the hardware address arranged in the nth bit.
In one embodiment, the arrangement sequence of the price tag content configuration information and the hardware address at the last update is obtained; and sequentially matching the price tag content configuration information with the hardware address according to the arrangement order. For another example, a default order may be obtained, and the tag content configuration information and the hardware address may be matched according to the default order.
In S206, the price tag content configuration information or the hardware address is adjusted according to the matching result. Wherein, compared with the default sequence or the arrangement sequence when updating last time, the user can adjust the arrangement sequence of the electronic price tags of the entity at any time according to the requirement; or at the time of initial update, the electronic price tag is not fixed according to the order of the hardware addresses thereof. In the above case, there will be a matching error in the matching result according to the predetermined rule in S204. In this step, the arrangement order of the content configuration information or the hardware addresses is adjusted according to the matching error in the matching result to eliminate the matching error. For example, the user terminal (such as a mobile phone) scans the identification information (such as a display screen sent to the electronic price tag or other places which are easy to touch by the user) to obtain the current matching result and the display content of the current electronic price tag; and then adjusting the content configuration information or the hardware address of the price tag according to the display error.
In one embodiment, the price tag content configuration information is adjusted according to the matching result; or adjusting the hardware address according to the matching result. When the tag content configuration information is regarded as a virtual electronic tag, the arrangement sequence of the hardware addresses is kept unchanged (for example, the arrangement sequence of the hardware addresses is always the initial arrangement sequence or the arrangement sequence when updated last time) by adjusting the arrangement sequence of the virtual electronic tag, so that when the virtual electronic tag is matched with the hardware addresses again, the arrangement sequence of the virtual electronic tag is identical with the arrangement sequence of the physical electronic tag, and the matching error is eliminated. When the arrangement sequence of the price tag content configuration information is the same as the actual arrangement sequence of the commodity, the arrangement sequence of the price tag content configuration information is kept unchanged, and the arrangement sequence of the hardware addresses is adjusted to ensure that the arrangement sequence of the hardware addresses is the same as the arrangement sequence of the entity electronic price tags, so that no matching error exists when the arrangement sequence of the price tag content configuration information is matched with the price tag content configuration information again.
In one embodiment, adjusting the price tag content configuration information based on the matching result includes: finding out one or more matching errors according to the matching result; and adjusting the arrangement sequence of the corresponding one or more price tag content configuration information according to the one or more matching errors. And displaying the matching result in the electronic price tag to acquire the matching error in the matching result through the user terminal. For example, a user inputs a matching error through a user terminal and acquires the matching error through the user terminal.
In one embodiment, adjusting the hardware address based on the match result includes: finding out one or more matching errors according to the matching result; and adjusting the arrangement sequence of one or more hardware addresses corresponding to the matching errors according to the matching errors. And displaying the matching result in the electronic price tag to acquire the matching error in the matching result through the user terminal.
In S208, the adjusted tag content configuration information is re-matched with the hardware address to complete updating of the plurality of electronic tags. After the adjustment in S206, this step will be correctly matched. Updating the arrangement sequence of the plurality of electronic price tags is completed based on the matching result of the step.
In one embodiment, the hardware address is sequentially matched with the price tag content configuration information after the arrangement order is adjusted according to the arrangement order. When the price tag content configuration information is regarded as a virtual electronic price tag, the arrangement sequence of the virtual electronic price tag content configuration information can be adjusted to be the same as the arrangement sequence of the physical electronic price tag. The two adjusted by the sequential matching can eliminate the matching error.
In one embodiment, the price tag content configuration information is re-matched with the hardware addresses after the arrangement order is adjusted according to the arrangement order. When the arrangement sequence of the price tag content configuration information is unchanged, namely the arrangement sequence is consistent with the actual arrangement sequence of the commodity, the arrangement sequence of the hardware address is adjusted to be the same as the arrangement sequence of the electronic price tag of the entity, and then the electronic price tag is subjected to sequence matching, so that the matching error can be eliminated.
In one embodiment, further comprising: and transmitting the price tag content configuration information to the electronic price tag corresponding to the hardware address based on the matching result so as to display the electronic price tag content. And displaying commodity names, commodity prices and the like in the price tag content configuration information in a plurality of corresponding electronic price tags based on the matching result, and finishing updating and displaying of the electronic price tags.
In one embodiment, the matching result is sent to a plurality of electronic price tags either offline or online. The offline mode is, for example, bluetooth or broadcasting; the online mode synchronizes the new matching result to the server, for example, through the user terminal, so as to update the receiving content of the plurality of electronic price tags through the server.
According to the electronic price tag updating method, the price tag content configuration information is matched with the hardware address, and the arrangement sequence of the price tag content configuration information or the hardware address is adjusted according to the matching result so as to eliminate matching errors, so that the correct updating of the display content of the electronic price tag can be realized offline or online under the condition that the actual placement position of the electronic price tag is not acquired.
FIG. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a method of updating an electronic price tag according to an exemplary embodiment. The method for updating electronic price tag shown in fig. 3 is a description of the present application when adjusting configuration information of price tag content. As shown in fig. 3, the electronic price tag updating method 30 at least includes steps S302 to S306.
In S302, one or more matching errors are found from the matching result. For example, as shown in FIG. 4, electronic tags C1, C2, C3 have hardware addresses A1, A2, A3, respectively, and an array A of hardware addresses: a1, A2, A3, the electronic price tag is arranged in the order of C2, C1, C3, the configuration information of the price tag content forms an array B: b1, B2, B3, which are the price tag display information of the goods 1, 2, 3, respectively. Because the electronic price tag sequence is inconsistent with the arrangement sequence of the hardware addresses, B1 and B2 will have matching errors, i.e. the commodity corresponding to the matching hardware address is not the commodity corresponding to the price tag content.
In S304, the arrangement order of the corresponding one or more price tag content configuration information is adjusted according to the one or more matching errors. As described above, the arrangement order of the tag content arrangement information is adjusted by interchanging the positions of B1 and B2 in the tag content arrangement information component array B.
In S306, the hardware address and the price tag content configuration information after the arrangement order is adjusted are sequentially matched again according to the arrangement order. As described above, in the example, the adjusted tag content arrangement information B2, B1, B3 is matched with the hardware addresses A1, A2, A3 one by one in the order of arrangement, that is, B2 is matched with A1, B1 is matched with A2, and B3 is matched with A3. By re-matching in this step, matching errors will be eliminated to ensure correct updating of the electronic price tag.
FIG. 5 is a flowchart illustrating a method of electronic price tag update, according to an example embodiment. The electronic price tag updating method shown in fig. 5 is a description of the present application when adjusting hardware addresses. As shown in fig. 5, the electronic price tag updating method 50 at least includes steps S502 to S506.
In S502, one or more matching errors are found from the matching result. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, electronic tags C1, C2, C3 have hardware addresses A1, A2, A3, respectively, and array A of hardware addresses: a1, A2, A3, the electronic price tag is arranged in the order of C2, C1, C3, the configuration information of the price tag content forms an array B: b1, B2, B3. In this case, A1, A2 will have a match error.
In S504, the arrangement order of the one or more hardware addresses corresponding to the one or more matching errors is adjusted according to the one or more matching errors. As described above, the arrangement order of the hardware addresses is adjusted by interchanging the positions of A1 and A2 in the array A composed of the hardware addresses.
In S506, the price tag content configuration information and the hardware address after the arrangement order adjustment are sequentially matched again according to the arrangement order. As described above, the adjusted hardware addresses A2, A1, A3 are matched with the arrays B1, B2, B3 of the tag content arrangement information one by one in the order of arrangement, i.e. A2 matches B1, A1 matches B2, A3 matches B3. By re-matching in this step, matching errors will be eliminated to ensure correct updating of the electronic price tag.
According to the electronic price tag updating method, under the condition that the position of the electronic price tag is fixed, the matching sequence of the price tag content configuration information and the hardware address of the electronic price tag is adjusted, and the display content of the electronic price tag can be updated on the premise that the physical position of the electronic price tag is not known.
According to the electronic price tag updating method, when the physical position of the electronic price tag changes, the display content of the electronic price tag can be updated on the premise that the physical position of the electronic price tag is not known by adjusting the matching sequence of the price tag content configuration information and the hardware address of the electronic price tag.
It should be clearly understood that this disclosure describes how to make and use particular examples, but the principles of this disclosure are not limited to any details of these examples. Rather, these principles can be applied to many other embodiments based on the teachings of the present disclosure.
Fig. 7 is a flowchart illustrating a method of updating an electronic price tag according to another exemplary embodiment. The electronic price tag updating method 70 at least comprises steps S702 to S708.
As shown in fig. 7, in S702, hardware addresses of a plurality of electronic price tags are acquired. As shown in fig. 8, a plurality of electronic tags (12 in this embodiment) on the shelf are connected by a bus, each electronic tag having a unique hardware address. An edge server (e.g., without limitation, an android box) is connected to the bus, such as through a USB interface, in which application software may be installed to communicate with each electronic price tag through USB serial communications. The hardware addresses of all electronic price tags can be formed into a String array String A, which can be stored locally and synchronized to the server. In this embodiment, the physical location of each electronic price tag on the shelf is not known, i.e., it is not known under which merchandise each electronic price tag is specifically placed.
In S704, the price tag content configuration information is acquired. The user, such as an operator, uploads the price tag content configuration information through the user terminal or the server, wherein the price tag content configuration information comprises commodity names, codes, prices and the like which are input by the user according to the commodity placing sequence. The tag content configuration information may be, for example, an array B. The edge server obtains the array A and the array B and matches the array A and the array B in sequence to control each electronic price tag to display price tag content configuration information matched with the hardware address. The matching result in this step may have a matching error, which will lead to the fact that the goods on the actual shelf are not consistent with the goods displayed by their corresponding electronic price tag.
The commodity price tag information list B and the electronic price tag hardware address list A corresponding to the goods shelf can be obtained from a server through a two-dimensional code of a code scanning goods shelf of a user terminal (such as a mobile phone provided with matched application software) or other means. The relation of the two in one-to-one correspondence on the shelf, namely the N element (price tag content) in the array B of the price tag content configuration information is a matching relation with the N element (price tag hardware address) in the array A of the electronic price tag hardware address, and the relation is displayed on the current shelf.
In S706, the matching relationship between the array B of the price tag content configuration information and the array a of the hardware address is adjusted at the user terminal according to the error display content on the shelf. If the price tag content of the commodity B1 is matched with the electronic price tag hardware A1, the price tag content is displayed at the 1 st position on the goods shelf, but is displayed at the second position on the goods shelf, then the electronic price tag at the first position is added, and the price tag content of the commodity 3 is displayed, at the moment, the mobile phone end controls to match the price tag content of the commodity 1 to the electronic price tag address matched with the original commodity 3 in a covering mode.
After the matching relation of all the price tag contents is adjusted according to the method, the original array B is covered by the array C for producing new price tag content configuration information, and the array A sequence of the new price tag content configuration information is not matched with the array A sequence of the hardware address.
In S708, the shelf price tag content is updated, and the price tag content is guaranteed to correspond to the commodity one by one. There are two ways of updating, as follows:
1) Offline mode: and broadcasting the matching relation to the application software through Bluetooth or other means according to a certain protocol. If a binary system is adopted, one byte represents the matching relation of one price tag, the first 4 bits represent the small tag of the array A, and the last four bits represent the small tag of the array B, and the total number of the electronic price tags is 12 bytes. After the new matching relation is realized, the binary system is sent out through Bluetooth broadcasting, so that the server application software can conveniently analyze after scanning the Bluetooth broadcasting, and the matching relation can be adjusted after analyzing, thereby adjusting the wrong price tag content.
2) On-line mode: and synchronizing the new matching relation from the user terminal to the server, and transmitting the new matching relation to the edge server by the server, so that the display content of the price tag on the shelf is updated. After the service end is synchronized online, the service end can know the physical position information of the electronic price tag on the shelf according to the new matching relation, so that the subsequent price tag content updating is convenient.
