Description

  The present invention relates to an authentication system.

  An authentication system that verifies whether or not a delivery item is a legitimate delivery item is a technique for judging whether or not a visitor is impersonating a legitimate deliverer when receiving a delivery item from a deliverer such as a courier. is there. Before opening the door, it is possible to determine whether or not an article held by a visitor on the receiving side of a delivery item is a regular delivery item.

  For example, the delivery company authentication system 1 disclosed in Patent Document 1 includes a barcode reader 32 that reads an image of a barcode 41 affixed to a package, and a package ID from the image of the barcode 41 that the barcode reader 32 reads. And a bar code reading unit 15 that extracts and transmits the extracted data to the delivery company server. Further, the delivery company authentication system 1 includes a tag information database 60 that stores tag information corresponding to the package ID, and a tag information search unit 56 that searches the tag information database 60 for tag information corresponding to the package ID. Based on the search result by the tag information search unit 56, it is configured to identify whether or not it is a valid delivery person.

JP 2009-276940 A

  However, since the authentication system of Patent Document 1 is a mechanism that performs authentication only by reading a barcode attached to a package, there is a problem that it is difficult to sufficiently prevent “spoofing” pretending to be a legitimate visitor. For example, a third party obtains a package with a barcode 41 recorded with a regular tag ID (a tag ID corresponding to the tag information stored in the tag information database 60) by some method, If you visit the package delivery destination while holding it, the third party who has done such fraud will be authenticated as a legitimate visitor. Such a mechanism that makes it difficult to eliminate “spoofing” is not sufficient in terms of security.

  On the other hand, as another method of suppressing such “spoofing”, for example, a configuration in which a camera capable of photographing an outdoor state is provided and a visitor's face or a situation outside a door is displayed indoors may be considered. However, it is difficult for a home visitor to accurately determine whether or not the displayed visitor is a legitimate visitor simply by photographing the outdoor situation and displaying it indoors. For example, in a case where a third party visits in a manner similar to the clothes of a delivery company, the home-based person may not be able to detect that it is an unauthorized visitor even when viewing the displayed visitor.

  As described above, in the conventional delivery mechanism, it is often impossible to accurately determine whether or not a home visitor is a legitimate visitor when a visit is made. For this reason, at present, as a defensive measure against illegal visits, even if a legitimate delivery company presses the interphone, it is not possible to receive a package without opening the door at that time (for example, response to staying away) There are many more. If such a response increases, in the delivery work of a regular delivery company, the number of cases that must be visited many times until the package is received increases, resulting in a decrease in work efficiency and an increase in work load.

  The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problem, and can more accurately determine whether a visitor who has an article and visits an authentication place is a regular registrant, and It is an object to provide a configuration that can also read an information medium attached to an article.

The present invention includes a first information medium in which first identification information is recorded and usable on an article;
A second information medium in which second identification information is recorded and carried by a person;
The first identification information recorded on the first information medium is read when the article is present in a predetermined first reading range of an authentication place where the first information medium and the second information medium are read. One reading unit;
A second reading unit that reads the second identification information recorded on the second information medium when there is a person who possesses the second information medium in a predetermined second reading range of the authentication place;
A registration unit in which second identification information for identifying identification information recorded in the second information medium is registered;
A determination unit that determines whether or not the second information medium has been read at the authentication location based on the second specific information registered in the registration unit and a reading result by the second reading unit;
A notification unit that performs a predetermined notification operation on the condition that at least the second information medium has been read by the determination unit;
It is characterized by having.

In the invention of claim 1, when the article is present in a predetermined first reading range of the authentication place, a first reading unit that reads the first identification information recorded on the first information medium, and a predetermined place of the authentication place A second reading unit that reads the second identification information recorded on the second information medium when there is a person who possesses the second information medium in the second reading range is provided. Since it is configured in this manner, at the authentication place, both the information medium (first information medium) attached to the article and the information medium (second information medium) possessed by the person can be read. In addition, each piece of information recorded in association with each person can be grasped and used.
Further, based on the second specific information registered in the registration unit and the reading result by the second reading unit, it is determined whether or not the second information medium has been read, and it is determined that the second information medium has been read. Under such conditions, a predetermined notification operation is performed. That is, since a predetermined notification operation is performed when a legitimate second information medium grasped from the registration unit is read, a legitimate visitor is at the authentication place when such a notification operation is performed. I can recognize that. In particular, since it is possible to determine whether or not the visitor is a legitimate visitor by reading the second information medium that is scheduled to be carried by a person, the legitimate visitor carries the legitimate second information medium. If this is done reliably, “spoofing” can be prevented more reliably.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, the registration unit registers first identification information for identifying identification information recorded on the first information medium and the second identification information, and the determination unit includes: Which of the first information medium and the second information medium is based on the first specific information and the second specific information registered in the registration unit and the reading results by the first reading unit and the second reading unit The notification unit performs the predetermined notification operation on condition that the determination unit determines that both the first information medium and the second information medium have been read. It has a configuration.
According to this configuration, the predetermined notification operation is performed only when the information attached to the article and the information attached to the medium carried by the person are both correct. Therefore, when such a notification operation is performed, it is possible to recognize that a legitimate visitor has a legitimate article and is in an authentication place, and the effect of preventing “spoofing” is further enhanced.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, the first information medium is an information code in which the first identification information is recorded, and the second information medium is a wireless communication medium in which the second identification information is recorded.
The first reading unit includes an imaging unit that captures an image of a predetermined imaging range set in the authentication place where the information code and the wireless communication medium are brought in as the first reading range, and the imaging range includes the imaging unit. A decoding unit that reads at least the first identification information from a captured image of the information code obtained by the imaging unit when an information code is arranged.
Furthermore, when the wireless communication medium is arranged in a predetermined communication range of the authentication place, the second reading unit records the second reading section recorded on the wireless communication medium with the communication range as the second reading range. A wireless reading unit for reading the identification information is included.
According to this configuration, it is possible to operate such that an article carried by a visitor is provided with an information code for identification, and a medium carried by a person is provided with a wireless communication medium for identification. This is advantageous when it is desired to manage the medium and the article possessed by a different type of information medium.

According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, the information code is an information code having a secret area in which encrypted data obtained by encrypting at least the first identification information based on an encryption key is recorded, and the second information medium Is a wireless communication medium in which the second identification information is recorded.
The first reading unit includes an imaging unit that captures an image of a predetermined imaging range set in the authentication place where the information code and the wireless communication medium are brought in as the first reading range, and the encrypted data from the outside. A decryption key storage unit for acquiring and storing a decryption key for decrypting, and when the information code is arranged in the imaging range, analyzing the captured image of the information code obtained by the imaging unit, A decrypting unit that reads the first identification information by decrypting the encrypted data recorded in the private area based on the decryption key stored in the decryption key storage unit.
Furthermore, when the wireless communication medium is arranged in a predetermined communication range of the authentication place, the second reading unit records the second reading section recorded on the wireless communication medium with the communication range as the second reading range. A wireless reading unit for reading the identification information is included.
And in the said registration part, 1st specific information is registered as information which specifies the said 1st identification information recorded on the said information code, The information which specifies the said 2nd identification information recorded on the said wireless communication medium The second specific information is registered as follows, and the determination unit determines whether the non-public area of the information code is based on the first specific information registered in the registration unit and the reading result by the decoding unit. Determining whether or not the wireless communication medium has been read, determining whether or not the wireless communication medium has been read based on the second specific information registered in the registration unit and a reading result by the wireless reading unit; The unit is configured to perform the predetermined notification operation when the determination unit determines that the non-public area of the information code has been decoded and the wireless communication medium has been read.
According to this configuration, the predetermined notification operation is performed only when the information attached to the article and the information attached to the medium carried by the person are both correct, and the private area of the information code is decoded. Since the predetermined notification operation is performed only in the case of an error, the effect of preventing “spoofing” is further enhanced. In particular, since the first identification information of the information code cannot be decrypted unless it has encrypted data, the leakage of the first identification information can be prevented, and it is difficult to generate a fake information code in which the first identification information is recorded. Therefore, the fraud prevention effect is further enhanced.

In the invention of claim 5, the first information medium is attached to an article to be delivered, and article identification information for identifying the article to be delivered to which the first information medium is attached is the first identification. It is recorded as information. In the second information medium, delivery person identification information assigned to a delivery person is recorded as the second identification information. In the registration unit, regular delivery person identification information for identifying each regular delivery person who delivers to each place is registered as the second identification information, and the determination unit is registered in the registration unit. Further, the second information medium corresponding to the authorized delivery person who delivers to the authentication place to be read by the second reading unit based on the second specific information and the reading result by the second reading unit is read. The notification unit determines that the second information medium corresponding to the authorized delivery person who performs delivery to the authentication place read by the second reading unit has been read by the determination unit. The predetermined notification operation is performed on the condition that this has been done.
As described above, whether or not the second information medium corresponding to the authorized delivery person who delivers to the authentication place read by the second reading unit is read in advance by registering the authorized delivery person for each delivery place. If it is judged, “spoofing” can be prevented more reliably. For example, even if a medium of another registrant who is not scheduled to be delivered to the authentication location is read, the authentication is not successful and a predetermined notification operation is not performed, so that the fraud prevention effect is remarkably enhanced.

In the invention of claim 6, the first information medium is attached to an article to be delivered, and article identification information for identifying the article to be delivered to which the first information medium is attached is the first identification. In the second information medium, delivery person identification information assigned to a delivery person is recorded as the second identification information.
Further, in the registration unit, regular article specifying information for specifying each regular article to be delivered to each location is registered as the first specifying information, and each regular delivery person who performs delivery to each location is specified. Delivery person specific information is registered as the second specific information.
And the said judgment part is based on the said 1st specific information registered into the said registration part, the said 2nd specific information, and the reading result by the said 1st reading part and the said 2nd reading part, The said 1st reading part And the first information medium corresponding to an authorized article to be delivered to the authentication place to be read by the second reading unit, and the second information medium corresponding to an authorized delivery person to deliver to the authentication place. The notification unit determines whether the information has been read, and the notification unit corresponds to the first information medium corresponding to the authorized article to be delivered to the authentication place and the authorized delivery person who delivers to the authentication place. The predetermined notification operation is performed on the condition that the determination unit determines that two information media have been read.
As described above, the regular article for each delivery place and the regular delivery person for each delivery place are registered in advance, and the regular article to be delivered to the authentication place read by the first reading unit and the second reading unit. If it is determined whether or not the corresponding first identification medium has been read and whether or not the second information medium corresponding to the authorized delivery person who has made the delivery has been read, “spoofing” can be prevented more reliably. For example, if a medium attached to another item that is not scheduled to be delivered to the certification location is read, the certification is not successful, and another registrant's media that is not scheduled to be delivered to the certification location. Since the authentication is not successful even if it is read, the “predetermined notification operation” is not performed in a situation where neither the regular article associated with the authentication place (delivery place) nor the authorized deliverer can be recognized, thereby preventing fraud. The effect is further enhanced.

In the invention of claim 7, the authentication location side apparatus comprising one or a plurality of devices, wherein a part or all of the devices are provided in a location area that communicates with the authentication location via a predetermined entrance / exit, and separated from the location area And a management device made up of one or a plurality of devices arranged so as to be communicable with the authentication place side device.

In FIG. 3, an opening formed in the wall J of the building is an entrance / exit H, and a door configured by a known opening / closing mechanism such as a rotary type or a slide type so as to open / close the entrance / exit H. D is provided. A predetermined area (more specifically, a predetermined area AR2 adjacent to the door D) communicating with the location area AR1 (inside the building) through the entrance H on the outside of the door D (outside of the building) is an authentication place AR2. It has become. In the example of FIG. 3, at least within a certain distance from the door D, an area below the upper end of the door D and above the walking surface (ground or floor surface) G is the authentication place AR2. .

  In order to perform good reading at such an authentication location AR2, the authentication device 30 functioning as the first reading unit and the second reading unit at least in the authentication location AR2 outside the location area AR1 is the first reading range. It is mounted on the upper end of the door D that opens and closes the doorway H, with a configuration of (an imaging range by the imaging unit 50) and a second reading range (a communication range by the wireless reader unit 60). In the example of FIG. 3, the light receiving sensor 53 and the antenna 65 are arranged outside the door D (on the side of the area AR2 that is outside the building), and the authentication device 30 is detachably hung on the top of the door D. For example, wireless communication is performed between the authentication device 30 attached to the door D in this way and the base station 10 disposed in the location area AR1. More specifically, the mounting tool 38 is detachably fixed to the upper end portion of the door D, and the imaging unit 50, the wireless reader unit 60, the communication interface 34, and the like are integrally held on the mounting tool 38. The authentication device 30 can be removed from the door D by removing the mounting tool 38 from the door D. Moreover, the mounting tool 38 is arrange | positioned at the clearance gap between the upper end part of the door D, and the wall of the building J (inner wall of the entrance / exit H) at the time of closure of the door D as shown in FIG. Side) and the outside of the building (that is, the authentication place AR2 side). The wireless reader unit 60, the antenna 65, the imaging unit 50, and the like are fixed to the authentication place AR2 side of the mounting tool 38, and the communication interface 34 and the like are fixed to the location area AR1 side of the mounting tool 38. It has become. If the authentication device 30 is configured in this way, it does not require complicated construction (construction work such as striking a large number of connecting members on the wall or wiring work), and it can be easily installed near the entrances and exits of various buildings. It becomes easy.

  Note that the example of FIG. 3 is merely an example. For example, the entire authentication device 30 is attached to the outside of the building (the authentication location AR2 side), and performs wireless communication with a device (such as the display device 40) on the location area AR1 side. It may be configured as follows.

  The display device 40 includes a control unit 42, a communication interface 44, a display monitor 46, a switch 48, and the like.

The communication interface 44 is a data communication (for example, a wireless communication such as a well-known wireless LAN method or a BlueTooth (registered trademark) method) or a wired communication via a cable with the outside (for example, the base station 10 or the authentication device 30). The communication interface is configured to perform communication processing in cooperation with the control unit 42. The display device 40 may be configured to receive power from a battery provided in the device, or may be configured to receive power from an external commercial power source or the like. The display device 40 may be configured as a dedicated terminal, for example, or may be configured as a multifunctional terminal such as a smartphone or a mobile phone. The display device 40 may be a portable device, or may be a stationary device or a fixed device.

(First information medium)
Next, the information code C corresponding to the first information medium will be described with reference to FIGS. In FIG. 7, the specific cell configuration of the information code C is omitted, but a configuration similar to a known QR code (a configuration in which light cells and dark cells are arranged in a matrix) can be used.

  The information code C is used by being attached to an article such as the delivery 80, for example, information uniquely assigned to the information code C or the delivery 80 (for example, a code unique ID or a delivery article number). The contents of the attached delivery 80 (article name, article type name, etc.), information that can specify the delivery destination of the delivery 80 (delivery address (destination) address, recipient name or name, telephone number, etc.) Information that can specify the delivery source of the delivery 80 (the address of the delivery source (client), name or name, telephone number, etc.) is recorded. As shown in FIG. 7, this information code C is encrypted with a public area Ca in which unencrypted data (public data) that can be read without using an encryption key is recorded, and an encryption key. A private area Cb in which encrypted data (private data) is recorded and an error correction area in which an error correction code is recorded are provided.

  Some areas are private areas (areas that can be read on the condition that a decryption key corresponding to the encryption key is acquired), and other areas are public areas (areas that can be read without using a decryption key) As a method for generating the information code C (partially non-public code) and a specific configuration of the generated information code C, for example, the techniques disclosed in JP2009-9547A, JP2008-299422A, and the like are preferable. Can be used. FIG. 8A illustrates the data configuration of the information code C generated using the techniques of these publications. Among these, the “disclosure code” indicates each disclosure as shown in FIG. Data is encoded according to the basic specification of JIS (JISX0510: 2004). The secret code is obtained by encoding each encrypted data as shown in FIG. 8C according to the JIS basic specification (JISX0510: 2004). In the methods disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2009-9547 and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2008-299422, there is an example in which the decryption key or the decryption key inspection data that can specify the decryption key is included in the secret code recorded in the private area Although disclosed, in this configuration, the decryption key and the decryption key check data are not included in the private area.

  The method for reading such an information code C (partially non-public code) is basically the same as in the case of the above-mentioned Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Nos. 2009-9547 and 2008-299422. When data is read in the same manner as a known QR code, and then it is determined whether or not there is a secret identifier at a predetermined position (immediately after the end terminal in the example of FIG. 8A). Reads the data in the private area following the secret identifier. Since the data in the secret area is encrypted with the encryption key as described above, it can be decrypted only when the decryption key for decrypting the encryption exists in the authentication device 30. Specifically, since the data in the private area is encrypted using a predetermined encryption algorithm with the above-described encryption key as a key, a decryption key corresponding to this encryption key is stored in the authentication device 30. (For example, the same key as the encryption key) can be decrypted using a predetermined decryption algorithm (an algorithm for decrypting a cipher encrypted with the above encryption algorithm) using the decryption key as a key. It has become.

  Note that the method for generating the information code C (partially non-public code) and the specific configuration of the information code C to be generated are not limited to this example. As long as it is a method capable of generating a two-dimensional code in which non-encrypted data is recorded, it may be generated by a method other than the method described in these publications.

  In the information code C, information uniquely assigned to the information code C or the delivery item 80 (for example, a code unique ID or a delivery item number), information that can specify the delivery destination of the delivery item 80 (delivery destination (destination)) Address, recipient's name or name, telephone number, etc.) and information that can specify the delivery source of the delivery 80 (delivery source (client) address, name or name, telephone number, etc.) are “first identification information” ”(Article identification information for identifying an article to be delivered), and any one or more of these information is encrypted and recorded in a non-public area.

(Second information medium)
The RFID tag 70 functioning as the second information medium corresponds to an example of a “wireless communication medium” and is configured as a known RFID tag in hardware, for example, as shown in FIG. The power supply circuit 72, the demodulation circuit 73, the control circuit 74, the memory 75, the modulation circuit 76, and the like are included. The power supply circuit 72 rectifies and smoothes the transmission signal (carrier signal) received from the authentication device 30 received via the antenna 71 to generate an operation power supply. The operation power supply is connected to the control circuit 74. It supplies to each component including the first. The demodulation circuit 73 demodulates the data superimposed on the transmission signal (carrier signal) and outputs the data to the control circuit 74. The memory 75 includes various semiconductor memories such as a ROM and a non-volatile memory, and is set by a user in accordance with a control program, tag identification information (tag ID) for identifying the RFID tag 70, and the use of the RFID tag 70. The stored data is stored.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 3, an RFID tag 70 is built in an identification card E such as an employee ID card, and the identification card E identifies the memory 75 of the RFID tag 70. Individual personal information (an ID (employee number, etc.), name, department, company name) assigned to the individual is recorded as “second identification information” (deliverer identification information). The control circuit 74 reads out the information and data from the memory 75 and outputs it as transmission data to the modulation circuit 76. The modulation circuit 76 performs load modulation on the carrier signal with the transmission data. The antenna 71 is configured to transmit as a reflected wave.

(Authentication process)
Next, an authentication process performed in the authentication system 1 will be described.
In the authentication system 1, the above-described authentication device 30 functions as a first reading unit and a second reading unit. Specifically, when the delivery 80 (article) exists in the predetermined first reading range of the authentication place AR2 where the information code C (first information medium) and the RFID tag 70 (second information medium) are read. The first identification information recorded in the information code C (first information medium) is read. Further, when there is a person holding the RFID tag 70 (second information medium) in a predetermined second reading range of the authentication place AR2, the second identification information recorded on the RFID tag 70 (second information medium). Is functioning to read.

  In this configuration, the storage unit 26 provided in the server 20 functions as a registration unit, and first identification information (more specifically, to each location) that identifies identification information recorded in the regular information code C. Genuine article identification information for identifying each regular article to be delivered) and second identification information for identifying the identification information recorded in the regular RFID tag 70 (more specifically, each delivery to each location) Regular delivery carrier identification information for identifying a regular delivery person) is registered. Specifically, information as shown in FIG. 11B is accumulated in the storage unit 26 of the server 20, and the code ID of the information code C attached in association with the article scheduled for delivery is registered. Yes. These code IDs correspond to an example of the first identification information (regular article identification information), and the regular information code is identified by the code ID registered in this way. That is, each information code in which each code ID registered in the storage unit 26 is recorded corresponds to a regular information code. In addition, as shown in FIG. 11B, information (deliverer ID) for identifying the deliverer of each article is registered in the storage unit 26 in association with each article scheduled for delivery. These deliverer IDs correspond to an example of the second specifying information (regular deliverer specifying information), and the proper deliverer is specified by the registered deliverer ID. That is, each delivery person specified by each delivery person ID registered in the storage unit 26 corresponds to a regular delivery person.

  Further, the storage unit 26 of the server 20 is associated with each scheduled person (employee in the example of FIG. 11A) scheduled to perform delivery work in advance, and an ID (in the example of FIG. 11A). A unique employee ID) is assigned and registered, and image data including a photograph of the face of each prospective person is registered in association with each prospective person (employee in the example of FIG. 11A). ing. Then, as shown in FIG. 11B, when a delivery person who delivers each article is determined, a delivery person name, a delivery person ID, and an image of the delivery person are registered in association with each article. With this configuration, when an item to be delivered is identified, not only information on the delivery destination of the item to be delivered (such as delivery address and recipient name), but also the name and delivery of the deliverer to be delivered The person ID and the face image can be specified. In addition, the database of FIG. 11B stores the delivery date and delivery time zone of each article in association with each article for each article. Therefore, if an article (delivery target article) is specified, the delivery date and delivery time zone of the article can be grasped from the database shown in FIG.

  The control unit 32 and the imaging unit 50 function as a first reading unit. The imaging unit 50 is configured to capture an image within a predetermined imaging range set in the authentication place AR2 as a first reading range. When the information code C is arranged in this imaging range, the information code C It functions to generate a captured image. In addition, the control unit 32 and the storage unit 36 function as a decryption key storage unit, and are configured to acquire a decryption key for decrypting encrypted data from the outside and store it in the storage unit 36. As an input method of the decryption key from the outside, a decryption key (a key for decrypting the encrypted data in the private area of the information code C) is operated by operating an operation unit (not shown) provided in the authentication device 30. May be input, or by transmitting such a decryption key from the server 20 or the like to the authentication device 30, the authentication device 30 may acquire the decryption key. The control unit 32 corresponds to an example of a decoding unit, and when the information code C is arranged in the imaging range of the imaging unit 50, the information code C obtained by the imaging unit 50 imaging the information code C. And the first identification information (such as the above-mentioned code ID) is decoded from the information code C. Specifically, the captured image of the information code C obtained by the imaging unit 50 is analyzed, and the encrypted data recorded in the private area based on the decryption key stored in the storage unit 36 (decryption key storage unit) It functions to read the first identification information by decoding. Note that the imaging range (first reading range) by the imaging unit 50 only needs to be set in the vicinity of at least the door D. For example, the imaging unit 50 captures the lower side or the diagonally lower side as shown in FIG. Can be set so that the entire area below the imaging unit 50 and within a predetermined distance from the door D is the imaging range.

  The control unit 32, the wireless reader unit 60, and the antenna 65 function as a second reading unit and a wireless reading unit, and the RFID tag 70 (wireless communication medium) is arranged in a predetermined communication range in the authentication location AR2. In this case, the second identification information (such as the above-mentioned delivery person ID) recorded on the RFID tag 70 (wireless communication medium) is read using the communication range as the second reading range. The communication range (second reading range) by the wireless reader unit 60 only needs to be set at least in the vicinity of the door D. For example, the communication range is at least within a certain distance (for example, several meters) from the door D. It can be set to be inside.

  In the authentication device 30, the first specific information and the second specific information registered in the storage unit 26 (registration unit), the first reading unit, and the second reading unit are registered by the control unit 42 corresponding to the determination unit. Whether or not both the information code C (first information medium) and the RFID tag 70 (second information medium) have been read (specifically, the private area of the information code C is decoded) And whether or not the RFID tag 70 has been read). More specifically, an information code C (first information medium) corresponding to an authorized article to be delivered to the authentication location AR2 read by the first reading unit and the second reading unit, and delivery to the authentication location AR2 The control unit 42 determines whether or not the RFID tag 70 (second information medium) corresponding to the authorized delivery person to be read has been read, and specifically corresponds to the authentication location AR registered in the storage unit 26. Whether or not the information code C in which the attached code ID is recorded is read and the RFID tag 70 in which the delivery person ID associated with the authentication place AR registered in the storage unit 26 is recorded is read. Deciding.

  Then, in the display device 40 (specifically, the control unit 42 and the display monitor 45) corresponding to the notification unit, “the information code C (first information medium) and the RFID tag 70 (second information medium are used by the authentication device 30). ”Are read”, a “predetermined notification operation” for notifying that the authentication has been successful is performed on the condition that the control unit 32 determines that “they have been read”. More specifically, the control unit 32 determines that the non-public area of the information code C corresponding to the authorized article to be delivered to the authentication location AR2 has been decoded, and the authorized delivery person who delivers to the authentication location AR2 A “predetermined notification operation” is performed on the condition that it is determined that the corresponding RFID tag 70 has been read. Note that the “predetermined notification operation” may be a message display or graphic display informing that the authentication has been successful (see FIG. 14), or a voice notification informing the user that the authentication has been successful. Good. Moreover, a predetermined lamp display, buzzer notification, or the like may be used.

  Specifically, the authentication system 1 is configured to perform processing according to the flow shown in FIG. First, in the server 20, information as shown in FIG. 11B is collected and registered in the storage unit 26 (FIG. 2) (S1). Then, each time the data of each article is registered, information associated with the delivery destination article (specifically, the base station 10) provided to the delivery place of the article (specifically, the base station 10) ( 11 (C)) is transmitted (information distribution) (S2). In addition, in the registration data as shown in FIG. 11B, the authentication location side device (base station 10, authentication device 30, display device 40) at the delivery address together with information on the delivery address to deliver each article. ) Identification information (e.g., mail address, IP address, other device identification information) is registered, and if the address of the delivery destination of the item is specified, information is sent to the authentication place side device existing at that address. Can be sent.

  In the base station 10 to which data as shown in FIG. 11C is transmitted from the server 20, part or all of the data is transmitted to the display device 40. In this configuration, the control unit 22 and the communication interface 24 of the server 20 correspond to an example of a specific information transmission unit, and based on the information registered in the storage unit 26 (registration unit), the regular location corresponding to the authentication location AR2 Information specifying the information code C (first information medium) (for example, code ID corresponding to the authentication place AR2) and information specifying the regular RFID tag 70 (second information medium) corresponding to the authentication place AR2 (for example, Authentication place side apparatus provided in the location area AR1 leading to the authentication place AR2 before the delivery 80 (delivery object) is delivered to the authentication place AR2. It functions to transmit in advance (specifically, to the base station 10 or the display device 40). In addition to the code ID and the delivery person ID, information registered as shown in FIG. 11C, that is, the article name, the delivery address, the recipient name, the sender address, the sender of the article scheduled for delivery. The name, the name of the deliverer, the image of the deliverer, etc. are also associated with each other and transmitted as a series of data. On the other hand, the control unit 42 and the storage unit 43 of the authentication location side device correspond to an example of a reception information storage unit, and before the delivery 80 (delivery object) is delivered to the authentication location AR2, the specific information transmission unit It functions to receive information from and store it in advance.

  Upon receiving such data (see FIG. 11C), the display device 40 displays the image of the delivery person, the delivery person name, and other messages included in the data (S4). FIG. 12 shows a display example in S4. With such a display, it is possible to grasp in advance the face, name, etc. of the deliverer who visits the location area AR1 in the location area AR1 where the display device 40 is arranged. Further, the display content is not limited to this example, and the name of the item scheduled for delivery, the address of the delivery destination, the name of the recipient, the address of the sender, the name of the sender, and the like may be displayed. By doing so, it is possible to grasp specific delivery contents in advance, and it is easier to receive a package with a sense of security if it is assumed delivery. In addition, in the case of a suspicious package or the like, it is also possible to contact or inquire of rejection early.

  And after the process of S4, when there is a visitor in the authentication place shown in FIG. 3, the switch which makes the authentication place the detection place operates. This switch (authentication device activation switch) is constituted by, for example, a known human sensor or the like, and detects, for example, that there is a person at the authentication place using infrared rays, ultrasonic waves, visible light or the like as a medium. To work. The authentication device activation switch is not limited to the human sensor, and may be the switch 48 of the display device 40, for example. For example, when a visitor presses an interphone installed on the outer wall or gate of a building, a person in the location area AR1 can grasp the arrival of the visitor. By performing a predetermined operation, it is possible to notify the display device 40 that there is a person at the authentication place. In this example, when the control unit 42 receives a predetermined signal from the switch 48, the on operation of the switch 48 (authentication device activation switch) is detected.

  In the display device 40, when the switch (authentication device activation switch) is turned on due to the arrival of a visitor, communication with the authentication device 30 is started (S5). On the other hand, when the switch (authentication device activation switch) is turned on by the arrival of a visitor, the authentication device 30 operates the imaging unit 50 and the wireless reader unit 60 to read the information code and read the RFID. The process is started (S6). Further, after operating the imaging unit 50 in S6, the authentication device 30 transmits a captured image of the imaging unit 50 to the display device 40 (S7). Then, the display device 40 that has received such a captured image displays the captured image on the display monitor 46 (S8). The captured image displayed in S8 may be an image immediately after the imaging unit 50 is activated in S6, or the captured image after the imaging unit 50 is activated in S6 may be displayed continuously or intermittently. Good. In this way, by transmitting the captured image from the authentication device 30 to the display device 40 and displaying it on the display monitor 46 of the display device 40, a person in the location area AR1 sees the display monitor 46 and visits it. The person's face can be recognized.

  On the other hand, the authentication device 30 reads the information code C and the RFID tag 70 after transmitting the captured image to the display device 40 in S7 or in parallel with the transmission of the captured image (S9). For example, after activation of the imaging unit 50 and the wireless reader unit 60 in S6, when the information code C of the delivery 80 (delivery object) is arranged in the imaging range of the imaging unit 50 as shown in FIG. The control unit 32 performs a known decoding process on the code image of the information code C imaged by, and decodes the information code C. The decryption process of the information code C is as described above, and the first identification is performed by decrypting the encrypted data recorded in the private area based on the decryption key stored in the storage unit 36 (decryption key storage unit). Information (for example, code ID) is read. In addition, after the imaging unit 50 and the wireless reader unit 60 are activated in S6, when the RFID tag 70 in the identification card E of the delivery person P is placed in the communication range of the wireless reader unit 60 as shown in FIG. The reader unit 60 reads second identification information (for example, a delivery person ID) recorded on the RFID tag 70. Then, the data obtained by reading the information code C and the data obtained by reading the RFID tag 70 are transmitted to the display device 40 (S10).

  In the display device 40, an authentication process is performed after the process of S8 or in parallel with the process of S8 (S11). The authentication process of S11 is performed according to the flow as shown in FIG. In this configuration, for example, in the processing of FIG. 10, the processing of S1 and S2 is performed after the processing of S3 shown in FIG. 9, and the processing after S3 is performed after the processing of S10 shown in FIG. However, the processing after S1 of FIG. 10 may be performed after the processing of S10 of FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 10, in the display device 40, first, the first specific information and the second specific information described above from the server 20 (more specifically, as shown in FIG. 11C transmitted in S2 of FIG. 9). Data) is received (S21) and stored in the storage unit 43 (S22). Then, when the reading data of the information code C and the reading data of the RFID tag 70 are transmitted from the authentication device 30 as in S10, these data are acquired (S23) and stored in the storage unit 43. (S24). Then, the read data of the information code C and the read data of the RFID tag 70 acquired from the authentication device 30 are collated with the first specific information and the second specific information stored in advance in the storage unit 43 (S25), and predetermined. It is determined whether or not the obtained regular collation result is obtained (S26). For example, when a specific code ID is registered as the first specific information stored in the storage unit 43 and a specific deliverer ID is registered as the second specific information, the information code C acquired from the authentication device 30 is stored. The read data includes the specific code ID (first specific information), and the read data of the RFID tag 70 acquired from the authentication device 30 includes the specific deliverer ID (second specific information). In S26, it is determined that the authentication is successful (verification is OK), and the process proceeds to Yes in S26. In this case, in S27, for example, as shown in FIG. 14, information associated with authentication success (for example, a message indicating that authentication was successful) is displayed on the display monitor 46 of the display device 40 as a verification result. In this example, the display of the collation result in S27 corresponds to an example of “predetermined notification operation”. Further, the “predetermined notification operation” performed in S27 may be another example described above (predetermined voice guidance, predetermined buzzer notification, predetermined lamp notification, etc.). Further, information included in the information code C read in S9 (FIG. 9) (for example, an article name (package name), a sender name, a sender address, a recipient name) at the same time before or after the display in S27. If the recipient address is displayed, the recipient's security can be further enhanced before the recipient opens the door D.

  On the other hand, when the read data of the information code C acquired from the authentication device 30 does not include the first specific information (the above-described specific code ID), or the read data of the RFID tag 70 acquired from the authentication device 30 When the second specific information (the above-mentioned specific deliverer ID) is not included, or after the data transmission in S5 (FIG. 9), the reading result of the information code C and the RFID tag even if a predetermined time has elapsed When the reading result of 70 is not transmitted from the authentication device 30, it is determined that the authentication has failed, and the process proceeds to No in S26. In this case, information associated with authentication failure (for example, a message indicating that authentication has failed) is displayed as a verification result (S28).

  As described above, the control unit 42 corresponding to the determination unit performs the first reading based on the information stored in advance in the storage unit 43 (reception information storage unit) and the reading results by the first reading unit and the second reading unit. The information code C (first information medium) and the RFID tag 70 (second information medium) corresponding to the authentication location AR2 to be read by the reading unit and the second reading unit function.

  Further, in this configuration, either the portable information terminal 100 possessed by the delivery person P or a device (such as a car navigation device) mounted on the delivery vehicle 90 driven by the delivery person P is a device whose position is to be detected. It is equipped with a GPS (Global Positioning System) receiver. The portable information terminal 100 is configured as an information code reader and a wireless tag reader. The portable information terminal 100 is a wireless tag reader (wireless reader unit 120 and antenna 125) that can read a wireless tag, and an information code reader that can read a known information code. Part 130. In addition, a wireless communication unit 140 that performs wireless communication (a wireless communication using a known wireless LAN method or Bluetooth (registered trademark) method, Internet communication, etc.) with an external device, a battery 115, and a power supply unit 116 as a power supply circuit are provided. A power supply system, a memory 111 including a known semiconductor memory, a key operation unit 112 including various operation buttons, a display unit 113 including a liquid crystal display, an external interface 114, and the like.

  Further, in the example of FIG. 6, the GPS receiver 119 is provided in the portable information terminal 100 possessed by the delivery person P. The GPS receiver 119 receives GPS information, and the GPS receiver 119 or the control unit 110. Thus, the current position information (for example, latitude and longitude information or address (location)) of the portable information terminal 100 is generated. The portable information terminal 100 is an information terminal for work used by the delivery person P at a delivery base, a store, a destination, etc., for example, and is carried by the delivery person P or placed in the delivery vehicle 90 during delivery. So carried. Therefore, if the position of the portable information terminal 100 can be grasped by GPS information, the current position of the delivering delivery person P or the current position of the delivery vehicle 90 can be grasped in more detail and in real time. The GPS receiver 119 is configured as a known GPS receiver, receives information from a GPS satellite (not shown), and calculates detailed latitude and longitude of the portable information terminal 100 provided with the GPS receiver 119. Is configured to do. The GPS receiver 119 may be of any known system as long as the current position of the portable information terminal 100 can be grasped based on information from GPS satellites.

  And the control part 110 and the radio | wireless communication part 140 are the present location information (for example, the detailed latitude and longitude information of the portable information terminal 100) of the portable information terminal 100 which the GPS receiver 119 (or control part 110) calculated. ) Is transmitted to the server 20 via the Internet line or the like. The server 20 receives the current position information (detailed latitude and longitude information of the portable information terminal 100 corresponding to the “detected position data”) from the portable information terminal 100, and receives it from the base station 10 or the display device. 40 to transmit to. In the registration data as shown in FIG. 11B, identification information (e-mail address) identifying the portable information terminal 100 possessed by the deliverer specified by the deliverer ID is associated with the deliverer ID or the like. And the wireless communication unit 140 correspond to the current position information when transmitting the current position information of the portable information terminal 100. In addition, identification information of the portable information terminal 100 is also sent. Accordingly, in the server 20, which deliverer possesses the current location information from the portable information terminal 100 (that is, which deliverer ID corresponds to the current location information from the portable information terminal 100). ) And the current position information is transmitted to the authentication place side device (base station 10 or the like) existing at the delivery address corresponding to the delivery person ID.

  In this configuration, the control unit 22 and the communication interface 24 of the portable information terminal 100 and the server 20 correspond to an example of a “position detection unit”, and the position of the vehicle used for delivering the delivery target item or the delivery target item is delivered. It functions to detect the position of the information reading terminal (portable information terminal 100) carried by the delivering person. Further, the control unit 22 and the communication interface 24 of the server 20 correspond to an example of a detected position data transmitting unit, and the detected position data obtained by the position detecting unit is used as an authentication location side device (specifically, the detected position data). It functions to transmit to the base station 10 or the display device 40) at each address to which the delivery person or delivery vehicle specified by the data of the destination is going.

  Then, the current position information (data of the detected position of the delivery person P or the delivery vehicle 90 about to go to the location area AR1 where the display device 40 exists) directly from the server 20 or from the server 20 via the base station 10. The display device 40 that has received the information displays the current position information (detected position data) on the display monitor 45. There are various display methods. For example, the current position information of the portable information terminal 100 (for example, information on latitude and longitude, or address (location)) itself may be displayed as character information, as shown in FIG. The position on the map indicated by the current position information may be displayed together with the map.

  In this example, the control unit 42 and the display monitor 45 corresponding to the notification unit function as a detection position display unit, and the location where the notification unit is arranged based on the detection position data transmitted by the detection position data transmission unit. The position of the vehicle used to deliver the delivery 80 (delivery object) to the area AR1, or the position of the information reading terminal (portable information terminal 100) carried by the delivery person P who delivers the delivery 80 (delivery object). Function to display.

(Main effects of this configuration)
As described above, in this configuration, the first reading unit that reads the first identification information recorded on the first information medium (information code C) when an article is present in the predetermined first reading range of the authentication place AR2. And a second reading unit that reads the second identification information recorded on the second information medium when there is a person holding the second information medium (RFID tag 70) in the predetermined second reading range of the authentication place AR2. And are provided. Since it is configured in this manner, in the authentication place AR2, both the information medium (first information medium) attached to the article and the information medium (second information medium) possessed by a person can be read. Each piece of information recorded in association with an article and a person can be grasped and used.
Further, based on the second specific information registered in the registration unit (storage unit 26) and the reading result by the second reading unit, it is determined whether or not the second information medium (RFID tag 70) has been read. A predetermined notification operation is performed on the condition that it is determined that two information media have been read. That is, since a predetermined notification operation is performed when a legitimate second information medium grasped from the registration unit is read, a legitimate visitor is at the authentication place when such a notification operation is performed. I can recognize that. In particular, since it is possible to determine whether or not the visitor is a legitimate visitor by reading the second information medium that is scheduled to be carried by a person, the legitimate visitor carries the legitimate second information medium. If this is done reliably, “spoofing” can be prevented more reliably.

Further, the registration unit (storage unit 26) registers first identification information for identifying identification information recorded on the first information medium (information code C) and the second identification information, and the determination unit stores the identification information. The corresponding control unit 42 is configured to determine whether the first information medium and the second information medium are based on the first specific information and the second specific information registered in the registration unit and the reading results by the first reading unit and the second reading unit. It is determined whether both have been read, and the control unit 42 and the display monitor 46 corresponding to the notification unit are on condition that the determination unit determines that both the first information medium and the second information medium have been read. A predetermined notification operation is performed.
According to this configuration, the predetermined notification operation is performed only when both the information attached to the article and the information attached to the medium carried by the person are correct. Therefore, when such a notification operation is performed, it is possible to recognize that a legitimate visitor has a legitimate article and is in an authentication place, and the effect of preventing “spoofing” is further enhanced.

The first information medium is an information code C in which first identification information is recorded, and the second information medium is a wireless communication medium (RFID tag 70) in which second identification information is recorded. The first reading unit includes an imaging unit 50 that images a predetermined imaging range set in the authentication place AR2 into which the information code C and the wireless communication medium (RFID tag 70) are brought as a first reading range, and an imaging range. When the information code C is arranged, the decoding unit for reading at least the first identification information from the captured image of the information code C obtained by the imaging unit 50 is provided.
Further, when the wireless communication medium (RFID tag 70) is arranged in a predetermined communication range of the authentication place, the second reading unit records the second identification recorded on the wireless communication medium with the communication range as the second reading range. A wireless reading unit for reading information is included.
According to this configuration, it is possible to operate such that an article carried by a visitor is provided with an information code for identification, and a medium carried by a person is provided with a wireless communication medium for identification. This is advantageous when it is desired to manage the medium and the article possessed by a different type of information medium.

Further, the information code C is configured as an information code having a secret area in which encrypted data in which at least the first identification information is encrypted based on the encryption key is recorded. The first reading unit includes a decryption key storage unit (storage unit 36) that acquires and stores a decryption key for decrypting encrypted data from the outside, and the control unit 42 corresponding to the decryption unit captures an image. When the information code C is arranged in the imaging range of the unit 50, the captured image of the information code C obtained by the imaging unit 50 is analyzed, and the information is stored in the private area based on the decryption key stored in the decryption key storage unit. The first identification information is read by decrypting the recorded encrypted data.
In the registration unit (storage unit 26), the first identification information is registered as information for identifying the first identification information recorded in the information code C, and is recorded in the wireless communication medium (RFID tag 70). Second identification information is registered as information for identifying the identification information, and the control unit 42 corresponding to the determination unit is configured to use the information code based on the first identification information registered in the registration unit and the reading result by the decoding unit. It is determined whether or not the private area of C has been decrypted, and whether or not the wireless communication medium (RFID tag 70) has been read based on the second specific information registered in the registration unit and the reading result by the wireless reading unit Judgment. The notification unit performs a predetermined notification operation when the determination unit determines that the non-disclosure area of the information code C has been decoded and the wireless communication medium (RFID tag 70) has been read. It has become.
According to this configuration, the predetermined notification operation is performed only when the information attached to the article and the information attached to the medium carried by the person are both correct, and the private area of the information code C is decoded. Since the predetermined notification operation is performed only when it is performed, the effect of preventing “spoofing” is further enhanced. In particular, since the first identification information of the information code C cannot be decrypted unless it has encrypted data, leakage of the first identification information can be prevented, and a false information code in which the first identification information is recorded can be generated. Since it is difficult, the fraud prevention effect is further enhanced. In particular, it is very useful when the first identification information includes personal information such as address and name.

The first information medium (information code C) is attached to the delivery target article (delivery item 80), and the article identification information for identifying the delivery target article to which the first information medium is attached is first. 1 is recorded as identification information, and in the second information medium (RFID tag 70), delivery person identification information assigned to the delivery person P is recorded as second identification information.
Furthermore, in the registration unit (storage unit 26), regular article specifying information for specifying each regular article to be delivered to each location is registered as first specifying information, and each regular delivery person who delivers to each location is registered. Regular delivery person specifying information to be specified is registered as second specifying information.
And the control part 42 corresponded to a judgment part is based on the 1st specific information and 2nd specific information registered into the registration part, and the reading result by a 1st reading part and a 2nd reading part, and a 1st reading part and Whether the first information medium corresponding to the authorized article to be delivered to the authentication place AR2 to be read by the second reading unit and the second information medium corresponding to the authorized delivery person to deliver to the authentication place AR2 have been read The control unit 42 and the display monitor 46 corresponding to the notification unit determine whether or not the first information medium corresponding to the regular article to be delivered to the authentication location AR2, and the regular delivery that delivers to the authentication location A predetermined notification operation is performed on the condition that the determination unit determines that the second information medium corresponding to the person has been read.
As described above, the regular article for each delivery place and the regular delivery person for each delivery place are registered in advance, and the regular article to be delivered to the authentication place AR2 read by the first reading unit and the second reading unit. It is possible to more reliably prevent “spoofing” by determining whether or not the first identification medium corresponding to is read and whether or not the second information medium corresponding to the authorized delivery person who performs delivery is read. . For example, even if a medium attached to another article that is not scheduled to be delivered to the authentication location AR2 is read, authentication is not successful, and other registrants who are not scheduled to deliver to the authentication location AR2 Since the authentication is not successful even if the medium is read, the “predetermined notification operation” is not performed in a situation where neither the regular article associated with the authentication location AR2 (delivery location) nor the regular deliverer can be recognized. The fraud prevention effect is further enhanced.

Also, an authentication location side device that is composed of one or a plurality of devices and in which a part or all of the devices are provided in a location area that communicates with the authentication location via a predetermined entrance and exit, and an authentication location side device at a position away from the location area And a management device (server 20) including one or a plurality of devices arranged to be communicable with each other.
Then, the management device specifies the regular first information medium corresponding to the authentication location and the regular second information medium corresponding to the authentication location based on the registration unit and the information registered in the registration unit. A specific information transmission unit that transmits information to be delivered to an authentication location side device provided in a location area leading to the authentication location before the delivery target article is delivered to the authentication location.
On the other hand, the authentication location side device receives the information from the specific information transmission unit and stores it in advance before the delivery target article is delivered to the authentication location, a determination unit, a notification unit, It has.
Further, the determination unit determines whether the first reading unit and the second reading unit perform reading based on the information stored in advance in the received information storage unit and the reading results of the first reading unit and the second reading unit. It is configured to determine whether or not the corresponding first information medium and second information medium have been read.
As described above, the authentication location provided in the site (location area) adjacent to the authentication location is the information specifying the regular first information medium corresponding to the authentication location and the information specifying the regular second information medium. If it is transmitted in advance from the management device to the side device, it is not necessary to send and receive a large amount of data between the authentication location side device and the management device at the time of authentication, and authentication processing can be performed more quickly. Moreover, the person in the location area can prepare more efficiently by grasping the information sent in advance to the authentication place side device, and the convenience is enhanced.

In addition, the management device (server 20) includes a position detection unit that detects the position of the vehicle used for delivering the delivery target article or the position of the information reading terminal carried by the delivery person who delivers the delivery target article, and the position detection unit. A detection position data transmission unit that transmits the data of the obtained detection position to the authentication place side device.
And the alerting | reporting part provided in the authentication place side apparatus is a vehicle used for delivery of the delivery object article to the location area AR1 where the said alerting | reporting part is arrange | positioned based on the data of the detection position transmitted by the detection position data transmission part. Or a detection position display unit for displaying the position of the information reading terminal carried by the delivery person P who delivers the delivery target item.
According to this configuration, in the location area AR1, not only the authentication of the delivery person P delivering the delivery 80 (delivery object) but also the delivery 80 (delivery object) scheduled to be delivered to the location area AR1. Position grasping (more detailed position grasping until reaching the location area AR1) is also possible. This makes it possible to more accurately predict the timing at which the delivery 80 (delivery target article) arrives at the location area AR1. For example, when there is a visitor, the regular delivery target article has arrived. It becomes easy to judge whether it is a visit together with the above-mentioned authentication more accurately.

In addition, the control unit 42 and the display monitor 46 corresponding to the notification unit are provided with a part or all of the devices in the location area AR1 that leads to the authentication place through a predetermined entrance, and the first reading unit and the second reading unit are provided. The section has a configuration in which at least the outside of the location area AR1 is the first reading range and the second reading range, and is configured to be attached to the door D that opens and closes the entrance.
Thus, if it is set as the structure which mounts the 1st reading part and the 2nd reading part in the door D, the 1st reading range and the 2nd reading range will be set to the outer side (authentication location AR2), and the information will be set to the door. A configuration that can be used inside D (location area) can be easily realized. For example, it is not necessary to construct a large hole in the wall and embed a large wiring, which is very advantageous for both the operator and the user.
