Returning to FIG. 2, in the order processing portable terminal 100 of this embodiment, the order receiving unit 102 receives the order of the product at the store 5. In the present embodiment, an example will be described in which a product is ordered from the menu 7 at a restaurant 5 such as a restaurant in the restaurant industry.
For example, video data in which at least a part of the menu 7 is captured by the imaging unit 30 (FIG. 5) of the smartphone 10 is sequentially displayed on the display unit 26 (FIG. 5), and the user selects a product image included in the video. You can specify an order. The order receiving unit 102 receives a product corresponding to an image selected from images of products included in the menu 7 video as an order.

  The extraction unit 104 extracts, from at least one marker among a plurality of markers installed at a plurality of predetermined positions in the store 5, marker specifying information that can specify a predetermined position where the marker is installed.

The plurality of predetermined positions in the store 5 are, for example, positions where order items are delivered, and in the example of the restaurant in the restaurant industry of the present embodiment, are positions such as a table where a customer eats or a counter seat. The marker can specify the position of the table or counter seat in the store 5 and is installed on the table or counter seat, respectively.
As shown in FIG. 4A, for example, the marker 110 is a sticker on which a company name 112, a store name 114, and a table number 116 are written, and can be attached to a table.

In this example, the marker 110 describes the company name 112, the store name 114, and the table number 116 as characters, but is not limited thereto. The marker 110 may be an image that is associated with each table in advance and can be distinguished from each other, and may be an image that does not include the characters of the store name 114 and the table number 116, for example, only a photograph or a picture. However, it is preferable that the table number 116 or the like is written on the marker 110 as in this embodiment because the user can visually confirm the table number. In the present embodiment, the marker 110 is attached to the table, but is not limited thereto. The marker 110 may be attached to or printed on a fixture such as a menu 7 placed on each table, a menu stand, a table sign plate, or a slip holder.
In addition, the marker 110 may have an appearance that can be identified for each table, such as a grain pattern on a table made of natural wood or a scratch on the table.

  The marker according to the present invention is used when the store 5 can be specified by combining with the order reception information because the menu to be referred to later is a menu unique to the store, or when the store 5 can be specified using other means. Since it suffices to have at least information with which a predetermined position in the store 5 can be specified, it is sufficient that it is associated with at least the table number.

  It is a chain store that offers the same menu throughout the country, and it is difficult to identify the store by just taking a menu image, or the store cannot be identified by GPS (Global Positioning System) in the store installed in the basement When the store cannot be specified using other means, such as the case, the marker 110 of the present invention needs to be able to identify which table of which store. Thus, the marker of the present invention can adopt various forms.

  The extraction part 104 of this embodiment acquires the image of the marker 110 by imaging the marker 110 using the imaging part 30 (FIG. 5) of the smart phone 10, for example.

  In another example, as shown in FIG. 4B, the marker may be a QR (Quick Response) code (registered trademark) which is a two-dimensional code type barcode. Also in this case, the extraction unit 104 acquires an image of the marker 110 by imaging the marker 110 using the imaging unit 30 of the smartphone 10.

  Moreover, the marker 110 is good also as a form which displays an image on the display installed in each table. The marker 110 is an arbitrary timing such as a timing for each set time zone, a timing set by a system operation of a store manager, or a timing at which the store system detects that a previous customer has finished accounting for the table. It is preferable that the image can be changed to a random image at the timing. What kind of image is displayed at random may be managed on the system side. According to this embodiment, for example, it is possible to prevent a stored image or a printed material obtained by photographing the marker 110 in advance and transmit an order with a mischief by pretending to be in the store 5. The reason is that since the marker 110 is randomly changed, an image cannot be obtained in advance.

  When characters such as the store name 114 and the table number 116 are written on the marker 110, it is not always necessary to perform marker identification using a photograph or a picture, and characters such as the store name 114 or the table number 116 are used. It may be configured to discriminate by character recognition.

  In addition to the image, various media can be used as the marker. For example, information on a company name, a store name, and a table number may be written on an RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) tag or an NFC (Near Field Communication) tag. In this example, the extraction unit 104 reads and acquires information on the marker 110 using an RFID reader (not shown) of the smartphone 10 or the like.

Furthermore, the marker may output different sounds (sound effects such as chimes or melodies), voices, and the like for each table. In this example, the extraction unit 104 acquires the sound or voice of the marker 110 using the microphone 34 (FIG. 5) of the smartphone 10.
For example, in the case where the marker is an image and the marker is specified by image recognition, the order processing portable terminal 100 is preferably configured to accept the order of the product using the image recognition. . In the case where the marker is voice and the marker is specified by voice recognition, the order processing portable terminal 100 preferably accepts the order of the product using voice recognition.

The order data transmission unit 106 transmits the order data of the product received by the order reception unit 102 together with the marker specifying information extracted by the extraction unit 104. For example, the order data transmission unit 106 can transmit the order data to the server device 60 via the network 3 using the mobile phone network communication unit 18 of the smartphone 10 of FIG.
In another embodiment, the order data transmission unit 106 may directly transmit the order data to the order receiving device 80 using the wireless LAN communication unit 20 of the smartphone 10 in FIG. In addition, the order data transmission unit 106 may transmit the order data using any communication means (not shown) included in the smartphone 10.

In the order processing portable terminal 100 of the present embodiment, the marker 110 presents an image or outputs a sound.
Then, the extraction unit 104 displays an image of at least one marker 110 captured by the imaging unit 30 (FIG. 5) included in the order processing mobile terminal 100 or a sound collection unit (microphone in FIG. 5) included in the order processing mobile terminal 100. 34) to acquire the sound of the at least one marker 110 collected, and convert the acquired image or sound into position identification information indicating a predetermined position where the at least one marker 110 is installed. Position identification information is acquired as marker specifying information.

As illustrated in FIG. 18, the extraction unit 104 can include an image recognition unit 202 and a position information conversion unit 204.
For example, the image recognition unit 202 collates the feature point data of the image of the marker 110 captured by the imaging unit 30 with the feature point data of the image table 460 of FIG. 17 registered in advance. When a matching image is detected, the image recognition unit 202 recognizes the image.
The position information conversion unit 204 refers to the image table 460 and converts the feature point data of the recognized image into position identification information indicating a predetermined position such as a table number corresponding to the feature point data.

  The image table 460 is held in the database 50 of the server device 60. For example, when an application is installed in the smartphone 10, when a store is used, or when a store is registered in advance, wireless LAN access installed in the store When the smart phone 10 detects the point identification ID, it can be downloaded to the smart phone 10 as appropriate and stored in the memory of the smart phone 10.

In the order processing portable terminal 100 according to the present embodiment, various units as described above are realized as various functions by the CPU 12 of the smartphone 10 executing various processing operations corresponding to the computer program.
The computer program according to the present embodiment includes a procedure for receiving an order for a product in the store 5 and a plurality of markers installed at a plurality of predetermined positions in the store 5 in a computer for realizing the order processing portable terminal 100. A procedure for extracting marker specifying information that enables specification of a predetermined position where the marker is set from at least one marker, and a procedure for transmitting order data of a received product together with the extracted marker specifying information are executed. It has been described.
