The evaluation result information may be one or plural.

  Next, implementation of the specimen detection method of the present embodiment will be described below.

  First, the detection target in the sample is colored using a reagent (S1). Next, the imaging unit 5 of the terminal 1 captures an image including the color development pattern of the specimen (S2). Next, an image including the color development pattern of the specimen is acquired by the image acquisition means 11 (S3). As the image acquisition step (S3), for example, the captured image may be acquired by the image acquisition unit 11 via the communication network 4 by the imaging unit 5 of the terminal 1. Next, the evaluation result image generation means 13 refers to the evaluation result stored in the evaluation result storage step from the color development pattern of the image including the color development pattern, and generates a corresponding evaluation result image (S4). Next, the composite image generation unit 14 generates a composite image synthesized with the image including the color pattern and the evaluation result image (S5). Next, the composite image generated by the composite image generation means 14 is displayed by the image display means 6 of the terminal 1 via the communication line network 4 (S6). Here, in S2 to S6, the imaging unit 5 such as a camera is held up so that the coloring pattern of the sample is reflected, and the processing of S2 to S6 is performed continuously on the sample by the image display unit 6 of the terminal 1. It is possible to display information that is easy to understand intuitively by superimposing information in real time.

  In the present invention, AR (Augmented Reality) technology is used. That is, in the present invention, the color development pattern is used as a marker for image recognition, and additional information for clarifying the detection result is presented according to the color development pattern. For this reason, if the present invention is used, even a person who does not have specialized knowledge can clearly understand the detection result in the color development reaction.

  In the sample detection method of the present invention, prior to the execution of the sample evaluation method of the present embodiment, the color pattern recognition unit of the apparatus 3 may recognize the preset color pattern. In this case, prior to the step S4, the color pattern recognition means recognizes the color pattern by recognizing the preset figure from an image including the color pattern.

  In the sample detection method of the present invention, S1 to S2 and S6 are optional steps, and may or may not be present.

  Although the detection evaluation method of the present embodiment has been described above, the application of the system 10 in the case where the specimen is food and the harmful substance is detected from the food will be specifically described below.

  First, prior to performing the sample detection method of this example, a test paper 21 shown in FIG. 4A is prepared. As shown in FIG. 2A, the test paper 21 is provided with spots 22A and 22B, and each spot 22A and 22B is provided with reagents A and B for detecting harmful substances from food in a colored pattern, respectively. include. Next, food that is a sample is added to each of the spots 22A and 22B. Then, as shown in the figure (B), for each spot, the color changes if there is a harmful substance in the food (shown in black in the figure (B)), and if it does not exist, the color changes. Not (shown in white in the figure (B)). In this way, the color patterns 22A and 22B are obtained according to the color change. As shown in FIG. 5B, when there are two color patterns, four types of images including the color patterns can be formed.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 6C, the color development patterns 22A and 22B of the specimen and the comprehensive evaluation results of the specimen corresponding to the color development patterns 22A and 22B of the specimen are associated with each other as a database (evaluation result storage). Means) 12 is stored. As shown in FIG. 4C, the database 12 stores four pieces of evaluation result information 23A to D. The evaluation result information 23A indicates that the two color development patterns 22A and 22B are both white and have not changed. In this case, as shown in FIG. 5C, the evaluation result “safe” is shown. In the evaluation result information 23B and C, one of the two color development patterns 22A and 22B is black, indicating that the color is changing in any one of the spots 22. In this case, the evaluation result “danger” is shown as shown in FIG. The evaluation result information 23D indicates that both of the two color development patterns 22A and 22B are black and that each of the spots 22 has changed color. In this case, the evaluation result “very dangerous” is shown as shown in FIG.

  Next, the sample detection method of this example will be described. First, worker X adds food A to be sampled to spot 22A containing reagent A and spot 22B containing reagent B on test paper 21 shown in FIG. The color development result is shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 5A, the coloring patterns 22A and 22B obtain a result that does not change in either case. Next, as shown in FIG. 5B, the worker X holds the camera of the smartphone 33 so as to include the coloring patterns 22A and 22B of the specimen A. Then, an image acquisition unit (not shown) in the sample detection apparatus acquires an image 34 including the color development patterns 22A and 22B of the sample A. Next, the coloring pattern recognition means (not shown) of the evaluation result image generation means (not shown) recognizes the black frame graphics shown in FIG. Next, an evaluation result image generating means (not shown) refers to the comprehensive evaluation result stored in the database 12 from the color patterns 22A and 22B included in the image 34. In this case, the evaluation result image generation means has the color patterns 22A and 22B that match the color patterns 22A and 22B of the evaluation result information 23A shown in FIG. The overall evaluation result of the coloring patterns 22A and 22B is determined as “safe”. The evaluation result image generation unit generates an image of an angel character indicating “safety” as a corresponding evaluation result image. Next, a combined image generating unit (not shown) generates a combined image obtained by combining the image 34 including the coloring patterns 22A and 22B and the evaluation result image. Next, as shown in FIG. 5C, the composite image 35 generated by the composite image generation means (not shown) is displayed on the display of the smartphone 33 via the Internet. As a result, the present invention can clarify information that is difficult to understand intuitively by color development alone. Therefore, by using the present invention, even a person who does not have specialized knowledge can clearly understand the detection result in the color reaction.

  In this example, the color development step has been described using the test paper 21 but is not limited thereto. For example, a reaction plate such as a plastic or glass plate may be used instead of the test paper, and for example, DNA A specimen and a reagent may be mixed using a (Deoxyribonucleic acid) chip or the like. Further, in this example, the color development step used a method of adding a sample to the reagent on the test paper 21, but the method is not limited to this. For example, the sample and the reagent are mixed in advance, You may add the said liquid mixture on a test paper.

  As described above, an example of application to safety in the food field has been shown as an example of use of the present invention, but the example of use of the present invention is not limited to this. For example, when using food as a specimen to evaluate the taste of food, the quality of the food (deliciousness, etc.) is evaluated by evaluating the taste as an evaluation result image and displaying it on a terminal display or the like. It can also be used for improvement. Also, not limited to the food field, when using a gene as a specimen to check the sex of a fetus, for example, displaying a character image of a moth or moth as an evaluation result image on a terminal display or the like Thus, it can be used as a sex discriminator for a fetus that can clearly understand the evaluation result. In addition, for example, when using a fatigue marker, a component serving as an index of happiness, or the like as a specimen for use in a fatigue check or happiness check, for example, as an evaluation result image, a facial expression indicating fatigue By displaying an image or a facial expression image that looks happy on a display of a terminal or the like, the evaluation result can be used as a fatigue checker or a happiness checker that can clearly understand the evaluation result. In addition, for example, when a lie is used as a sample, a component that is secreted is used as a sample, and a character mark such as “lie” or “true” is displayed on the terminal display, etc. Therefore, it can be used as a lie detector that can clearly understand the evaluation result. In addition, for example, as a specimen, blood or urine containing a component that is an indicator of an infant's or pet's emotion is used as a specimen, and the infant's or pet's facial expression is displayed on a terminal display, etc. Available.
