DE102011122668A1 - Radio-frequency identification chip for use in piece of cloth for allowing customer to sort piece of cloth with respect to e.g. colors, is fastened to piece of cloth that is visualized on monitor at wardrobe and mobile phones - Google Patents

Abstract

The chip is fastened to a piece of cloth with a handle-held device, where the piece of cloth is visualized on a monitor (1) at a SPITA-21 wardrobe (2), mobile phones and other device with the monitor, and identified and sorted. A frame (6) of the wardrobe is designed as a transmitter detector for the chip. The visual detection of the piece of cloth on the wardrobe is enabled before placing on a cloth rail, where the wardrobe is provided with a mechanical switch.

Description

Purpose and aim of the product

With this product, the customer is offered the new opportunity to handle garments efficiently. By digitizing the garments, SPITA 21 creates a virtual wardrobe.

Technical solution

The following is the technical solution to display garments digitized and 3 Dimensional when stored in the SPITA wardrobe. Furthermore, SPITA 21 allows to locate the garments in the cupboard and to indicate the respective position.

The customer can retrieve the digitized and 3D animated garments on the display of the wardrobe as well as mobile on the mobile phone. The position of the visualized garments is also shown on the display. Another highlight is the real display of the arbitrary deposit of the garment in the wardrobe.

The location of the garments is via an RFID chip. This chip is attached with a special device by the customer by hand so that it hangs apparently invisible to the garment. By means of a transmitter, the object recognition of the garment can now be carried out via the licensed company software SPITA 21. The object recognition is displayed virtually on the display of the wardrobe or on the smart phone via an "app" and the respective position also spatially visualized. An LED then displays the garment in a randomly stored position on the wardrobe.

• 1. Kleiderbügel, mit angebrachten RFID Chip am Kleidungsstück, in die passgenaue Ablagefläche der Fotokammer ablegen.
• 2. Auf der Bedieneroberfläche am Display per Touch Screen unter Menü → ”Einlagern” tippen (Türe schließt)
• 3. (Türe öffnet) Das Kleidungsstück nun in eine der Positionen auf der Kleiderstange ablegen, die jeweils mit einem Signal-LED bestückt sind.

Storage of the garments is carried out in the following steps:

• 1. Place the coat hanger, with the attached RFID chip on the garment, in the perfectly fitting storage area of the photo chamber.
• 2. Touch on the user interface on the display via touch screen under Menu → "Storage" (door closes)
• 3. (Door opens) Now place the garment in one of the positions on the clothes rail, each equipped with a signal LED.

software

• – Objekt einlagern
• – Objekt identifizieren
• – Objekt visualisieren
• – Objekt sortieren

The user interface should enable the customer to use the following applications:

• - Store object
• - Identify object
• - visualize object
• - Sort object

• Store object:

The object is assigned an RFID address and stored in the database. As soon as this object passes through the transmitter attached to the frame of the SPITA wardrobe, the address of the position is assigned to the object. A mechanical switch indicates the position in numerical sequence and is assigned to the object after the operation (contact between hanger and clothes rail).
Example: Object = Position_X → RFID_Address = Switch_Position

• Identify object:

The identification is done by linking the photographed object and the assigned address of the position. The RFID address is assigned a photo file after it has been placed in the visualization chamber (photo chamber).
Example: RFID_Adresse.Photo = Schalter_Position

• Visualize object:

• 3 Dimensional visualization of the object

• Sort object:

• – Sortieren der Kleidungsstücke nach Sommer-Kollektion, Winter-Kollektion, Herbst-Kollektion, Frühjahrs-Kollektion.
• – Sortieren nach Event bzw. nach gegebenem Anlass
• – Farben
• – Preisklasse

According to customer requirements
Ex.

• - Sort the garments by summer collection, winter collection, fall collection, spring collection.
• - Sort by event or given occasion
• - Colours
• - Price range
