The authentication processing unit 315 performs a function of processing user authentication through an authentication server or the like when requesting data of a corresponding product by scanning a QR code through a smartphone or the like.

Hereinafter, referring to FIG. 4, a method of generating a D / B, a URL, and an information recognition code based on a production serial number of a product will be described.

First, D / B data is created by using product identification information and product information such as product serial number, etc., which are assigned during production, and at the same time, a URL (or similar function) for providing a service connected with the D / B Write.

At this time, the whole or part of the value is modulated by an encryption algorithm, the primary security means, such as preventing the access through the forced input of any serial number, such as the identification information (for example, serial number) of the product is not known only by the above information. This will make the page inaccessible until you know the exact URL or its equivalent.

In addition, this value acts as a public key and can be used for later security procedures. After this process is performed at the same time, it generates a two-dimensional recognition code containing the basic information of the product and an accessible URL, or a one-dimensional recognition code that can be used for access. The generated information recognition code is attached or printed where the item or other management is needed, as described above.

Hereinafter, a method of collecting and managing information using a barcode described in a product will be described with reference to FIG. 5.

As described above, the two-dimensional bar code includes a basic information of the product and a URL serving as a public key. After recognizing this in a smartphone capable of code reading, it connects using wired / wireless information network and collects and manages information about the product.

If the security is authenticated (using a dedicated terminal, a dedicated application for smartphone with authentication function, etc.), it supports the collection and management of information with only the public key without access to the corresponding URL or similar function. Terminals that are not certified for security (eg smartphones) should be connected to the URL or similar function to use the information collection and management function, and the level of authority and information disclosure will be determined through security authentication.

At this time, the collected information is collected in the D / B. Fields to which the present invention is applicable are production management, delivery management, sales management, construction management, and the like, which can be combined with existing systems such as production automation systems and ERP to support comprehensive management.

Next, with reference to Figure 6 will be described a process information generation method using information such as position, time, user.

Almost all mobile devices, including smartphones, have built-in devices that can recognize and use time and location. When the recognition code is recognized, this information is collected at the same time to generate processed information. In particular, by checking and recording the location and time of the product was used, and the information of the product itself, it is possible to improve the old-fashioned method that cannot be confirmed without digging directly.

In addition, the characteristics of each product (date pipe, cross pipe, Y-shaped pipe, T-shaped pipe, connection part, valve, etc.) are used to define the connection direction, connection status, and other characteristics of pipes and other products, and to recognize recognition codes. It is used at the time of input through to obtain accurate information about actual construction state. This information can be collected / stored in D / B and organized to be used for later management. In addition, it can be applied to tracking the delivery route, measuring storage location and storage period, and other logistics management.

On the other hand, in the past, when construction is completed, only the design is dependent, but it is not exactly matched, and it is not known until digging directly. However, this problem can be solved by correctly confirming the construction information by the above-described method. Therefore, it is possible to provide more effective information by actually comparing and displaying the position information obtained at the time of construction and the actual design. In addition, information can be input through code recognition while directly checking the actual design plan, not the map.

At this time, information about depth (or height) cannot be provided through GPS, and this is solved by obtaining depth information through linkage with design drawings divided by layer. Finally, when designing, each component is modularized to generate separated information, which supports direct combination with construction information through actual barcode recognition.

The following describes how to print, attach, or virtually link the identification code associated with product information.

By using a printing device that can be used immediately by connecting with a portable terminal, the identification code of the normally constructed part is stored in the server and printed at the same time so that it can be immediately attached to the main point as required by the design, manhole, and other needs.

Alternatively, they can be written directly into the design drawing file at the same time as the recognition and output or saved as it is for design management and maintenance. In addition, by storing them in the server, the construction status can be conveniently managed directly by the required personnel.

In this way, when the attached / recorded recognition code is recognized through another terminal, anyone can obtain the same result as the recognition code attached to the corresponding part, and it can be used for management and maintenance according to the authority. .

7 is a diagram illustrating an example of usage through code reading according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 7, when a QR code attached to a product is scanned at a specific location as described above, the current information is displayed and connected through a web browser or an application. At this time, according to various embodiments of the present invention, accurate construction information is provided in connection with a map, a design drawing, a 3D stereoscopic view, or an augmented reality.

On the other hand, in the embodiment of the present invention has been described with respect to specific embodiments, various modifications are possible without departing from the scope of the invention. Therefore, the scope of the present invention should not be limited by the illustrated embodiments, but should be determined by the scope of the appended claims and equivalents thereof.
