Description

A Coordinate Simulation Service System By Use Of The User Image}

The present invention relates to a coordination simulation service system capable of personalized personalized coordination that fits the user's actual image. More specifically, the registered user transmits his or her own image file photographed or scanned by a web camera through a dedicated coordination program. By inputting the information, the personalized personalized coordination for the face image can be automatically implemented according to the coordinating room of the web page. The present invention relates to a co-simulation service system using a user image that can select a product suitable for the user, thereby increasing the reliability of product purchase.

As you know well, the coming 21st century will be driven by computer technology, collectively referred to as Intelligence Technology (IT), and Internet communication based on it. While releasing text dependency and bringing it closer to reality, that is, stimulating the human senses to maximize the effect of information transfer, the sharing of information and the expansion of the public base, which are the strengths of Internet sites, are similar to those of numerous Internet providers. It loses the advantages of comparative advantage as a format.

As a result, the contents of the site that can be diversified from the simple information provision by seeking to change the direction as a professional total site, and can greatly pursue the function as the Internet and the fun of life are more diverse.

Virtual reality, which encapsulates all the actions of searching for information that a user wants to obtain in a space that is not real but is almost identical to real life, shares the same environment and information to multiple participants who are geographically separated and communicates with the other party. To provide a three-dimensional (3D) virtual space that can be done, information sharing in the virtual space can occur effectively when the meaning of the provided information can be cognitively grasped and easily explored.

Therefore, the virtual reality system has a feeling that the participants are actually entering the world, and the application of the virtual reality system to the Internet is a groundbreaking way to provide the public with three-dimensional and realistic images through the virtual reality system. As a result, it maximizes the immersion of the Internet and the user can obtain the best metered information by using the system with high awareness of the information.

However, what we need to know here is that if the information in the virtual space does not meet the same functions and the same conditions as those obtained in the real space and the objects that are actually used, the meaning of the virtual space will have to be halved. The rewards of such a series of tasks are to reduce threats and cost savings in real life, for example, to reduce the costs of operating a physical product, as well as to make a virtual space or thing virtually inaccessible. You can expect as many effects as possible only with virtual reality.

On the other hand, it is almost impossible for a user (consumer) to coordinate all the products that he / she wants in the real offline (store), and therefore, to overcome the limitations of the offline product coordination, the user wants the product online. Users can satisfy their personalized needs to some extent by expressing themselves through coordinate simulation without being aware of others' eyes.

However, until now, the method of coordinating service using virtual reality has not been able to sufficiently convey the information of the product to be sold to the user because it provides only the fragmentary information about the product. Since three-dimensional product images are expressed, it is difficult for the user to meet the exact personalized desires of the user himself, thereby lowering the purchase desire for the product, thereby lowering the reliability of the product.

Accordingly, the present invention has been proposed to overcome the limitations of the user coordination service method up to this point so that the user can satisfy the needs such as working with a real product offline, and a user who has registered as a member Coordination program is used when the user takes a picture offline with a web camera or inputs the information of the scanned image file through a dedicated coordination program. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a cosimulation service system using a user image that can satisfy on-demand needs such as receiving a service online.

Particularly, in the image capturing step, when a user takes a picture by using a web camera or transmits a scanned image file onto a web page and uploads the image, the background color of the image is automatically chromaticized and the background and the user's face are separated. It is characterized in that it is made to superimpose the image by superimposing the VGA image on the color.

In addition, it is characterized in that the coordinate image of the user applied through the coordination simulation step is automatically compressed into a JPG, which is a graphic file used as a standard in a web page, so that the mail can be transmitted.

Hereinafter, the implementation principle of the coordinate simulation service system using the user image according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Figure 1 shows the operation of the coordination simulation service system using the user image of the present invention, Figure 2 shows a schematic operation blur configuration screen of the coordination simulation service system using the user image of the present invention, Figure 3 4 illustrates a concept of operating a coordinated simulation service system using a user image of the present invention, and FIG. 4 illustrates an overall operation flow configuration screen coordinated through a coordination room of a corresponding shopping mall associated with a coordinated simulation service system using a user image of the present invention. It is shown.

As shown in the figure, the coordination simulation service system using the user image of the present invention to take a picture or scan the face of the user 70 with a web camera 60 to be able to make a custom coordination on their site An image shooting step (S1) in which the image file of the user 70 is transmitted to the web page 40, a user member registration step (S2) of inputting and authenticating the personal information of the user 70 together with the image shooting, and the user. Registration information storage step (S3) of the registration information is stored in the coordination DB server 30 with the image file (70) and the browser download step (S4) to download and install the dedicated browser on the computer (20) And a member login step (S5) in which the user 70 accesses the web page 40 and logs in for personality analysis and image customization coordination, and the user 70 moves to the coordination room of the shopping mall to select a product.Ping mall selection step (S6), the coordination simulation step (S7) of resizing to the desired coordination image while coordinating the selected product on the actual face image and body model of the user 70, and confirms the selected product information to purchase and payment Including the product purchase payment step (S8).

That is, the coordination-only browser of the present invention, which is a face image automatic recognition program of the user 70 for 1: 1 image matching coordination service and virtual reality shopping, is made with ActiveX and a web page that implements coordination work (Web) Page) is a browser tool (Blower Tool) that is automatically installed on the user's computer 20 and executed on the web page 40. In particular, ActiveX is a program development form proposed by Microsoft for the World Wide Web (WWW). Is intended to uniquely and exchange heterogeneous data and programs, which, like Java Applets, are automatically installed on the user's computer 20 without the installation of additional plug-ins, like Java Applets, on Internet Explorer. After installation, it refers to a program that is executed on the web page 40.

In addition, when comparing ActiveX and Java applet used as the program of the present invention, ActiveX is based on Windows and NT, and its security is relatively weak, but its execution performance is excellent. Java applet is Windows, Unix For example, Mac is the driving environment and security is relatively strong, but execution performance is somewhat weak.

In order to use the customized coordination service of the present invention which is implemented as a coordination-only browser, the user 70 first of all faces his / her face on a driving screen executed on a web page 40 through an image capturing step (1). Adjust the angle of the web camera 60 mounted on the computer 20 so that it appears to take a picture or upload its own face image scanned through a scanner to the web page 40, wherein the web camera 60 is You can also use a low-resolution digital camera for your computer, and there are some constraints on the image, such as not hanging your hair behind the background painted in a single color.

Particularly, in the image capturing step S1, when the user 70 photographs the web camera 60 or transfers the scanned image file onto the web page 40 and uploads the image, the user 70 automatically or manually photographs the user 70. The background color of the scan image is chroma keyed to separate the background from the user's 70's face, and to designate a desired color from the incoming image image to superimpose a VGA (Video Graphics Array) image on a specific color. In this case, chroma key is a technique used in image synthesis. After taking an object on a single color background, it removes the background color part and replaces the live image in its place to synthesize the image so that it looks as if the object is taken from another background. It is an image synthesis technique that is frequently used in printing, publishing, and other image fields.

In particular, after extracting the area of the separated image image to identify the head, neck, and eyes, unnecessary parts are removed, and color correction and edge detection (to improve the quality of the image image) Various image processing techniques such as Edge Detection and Contrast are used, and color correction at this time is when converting RGB (Red-Green-Blue) color data into CMYK (Cyan-Magenta-Yellow-Black) data. In particular, CMYK represents a color model in which black is added to CMY (Cyan-Magenta-Yellow), which is the three primary colors of the dark blue color mixing method.

In addition, edge detection is an image processing technique that detects a boundary or contour of an object in computer graphics, that is, an image processing technique that emphasizes and extracts a boundary portion by mathematically processing an image, and is mainly used in image recognition and pattern recognition. In computer graphics, the difference between the light and dark areas of an image is to narrow the selected area by the number of pixels entered in the dialog box.

In addition, when changing the face size of the user 70, image distortion is minimized by various techniques such as two-pass scaling, and two-pass scaling means jitter when scaling an image. To improve the quality of the image when the image is enlarged or reduced.It is divided into 2 pass or 3 pass depending on how many sampling images are created.

On the other hand, through the user member registration step (S2) to enter the personal information of the user 70 requested by the web page with the user's 70 image taken on the web page 40, the coordination simulation is driven and linked When the certification process is confirmed by the certification body, the registered member can purchase and pay for the goods provided in the shopping mall.

In addition, the registered information and the image file of the registered user 70 is stored in the coordination DB server 30 associated with the web page 40 through the registration information storage step (S3) and coordinated browser at the time of member login It is possible to automatically load the actual image image of the user 70.

On the other hand, the reason why membership registration is required in the web page that the coordination simulation of the present invention is implemented is the coordination DB server 30 by the database of the image and taste of the user 70, the coordination record, the usage information of the browser to provide customized In order to provide an ID (Indentification) and PW (Password) of the user 70 is essential, through the membership, the user 70 has its own unique ID and 1: 1 coordination service through the web camera 60 and The mailing service, a dedicated browser for coordination tailored to the taste of other users 70, and various contents in the browser are provided.

In the browser download step (S4), a dedicated coordination browser provided online (web page) or offline (CD title) is installed on the user's own PC, which does not download all provided data of the dedicated coordination browser. After downloading basic browsers without additional download and installation process, related data is continuously downloaded to user's computer 20 while using the browser, which reduces the download time during program execution. .

In addition, in the member login step (S5), the user starts the coordination-only browser and logs in after preparing an environment setting for personalized personalized service through log-in, and the coordination-only browser is a web page 40 and the user. By selectively interacting with the coordination database of the coordinating DB server 30 connected, the user selectively selects new coordination related data information (eg, brand video, GIF animation, coordination simulation, flash movie, own image, etc.). Because it is automatically stored in the computer 20, the user 70 can check and apply the relevant coordination-related data information desired by the user first.

In addition, in the member login step (S5), when the user 70 uses the coordination browser without logging in, general information is provided, and when the user 70 logs in normally, the coordination DB server 30 is stored. As the specialized information is automatically downloaded along with the image image of the user 70, a coordination driving screen suitable for the taste of the user 70 may be provided.

In addition, the user 70 accessing and surfing the web page 40 moves to the coordinating room of the coordinating shopping mall that he / she wants through the shopping mall selection step S6 and the coordinating simulation step S7 and provides the shopping mall DB server 50. By selecting a corresponding product to be able to execute a custom coordination on their image image, the user 70 can be simulated in the coordination room provided by the mall DB server 50 selectively, for example, in the makeup room foundation , Eyeshadow, lipstick, etc. can be applied to the face to make up the color tone, but at the same time, you can check the simple text information (color, capacity, brand name, features, etc.) Put the product directly into the shopping bag through) connected to the online shopping mall DB server 50, check the specific product information can be paid for and purchase.

In particular, the coordinate image of the user 70 through the coordination simulation can be applied to the community function provided by the dedicated browser for coordination, for example, when the user clicks on a custom coordinate transmission button (detailed drawing omitted) Coordinated images can be automatically compressed into JPG (Joint Photographic Group), a graphic file used as a standard on web pages, and sent to friends via video mail. Can be induced.

In addition, if you select the desired board (Board) by clicking the desktop creation button (detailed drawing omitted), the coordination image applied by the user 70 himself can be resized on the desktop of the computer 20, and coordination only Through the browser, fashion-related data can be updated (up-date) from the coordinating server periodically to provide and manage continuously changed fashion information.

In addition, make-up, shoes, clothes, hair, hair, jewelry, etc. are automatically resized and placed in the coordination room of the shopping mall, and the user 70 selects them. Coordinate work on own image image by dragging or clicking product. In this case, image resizing means adjusting the image data size according to a given variable.

In particular, in the coordination simulation step (S7), the user 70 can obtain the advice of an expert while making a personalized coordination by using a high-quality two-dimensional or three-dimensional simulation. It is enough to meet the needs of the user 70 using their digital photos or photos of the provided models to suit their hairstyle, wig, hair color (dye), makeup, glasses, accessories and their own new look. It can be created.

In addition, the coordination room associated with the shopping mall DB server 50 continuously interacts with the coordinating DB server 30 to automatically store the results of the actions of the user 70 and provides marketing data and personality of the member companies that provide future products. By using it as an analysis data, it can provide more differentiated service information, and also from member's point of view, it can have the effect of promoting the actual company's stores through virtual stores.

On the other hand, in the product purchase payment step (S8) when the user applies for the purchase of the coordination products he selected through the web page 40 and confirms the payment by the corresponding payment method, the payment data is automatically coordinate DB server 30 As it is transmitted and stored in the future, the data is shared with the shopping mall DB server 50, so that the registered members can be provided as a differentiated product service to the users 70.

As described above, according to the coordination simulation service system using the user image according to the present invention, a webpage is automatically inputted when a registered user transmits his / her own image file photographed or scanned by a web camera through a coordination-only program and inputs information. By allowing personalized personalized coordination to be applied to the face image of each coordinating room, the user can select the product that is suitable for the user by satisfying the online service needs such as receiving actual coordination service through offline simulation. The reliability of the purchase can be improved.

As a result, the service information on the preferred product is automatically databased from the user's point of view, so that the new product can be presented first when the new new product is released. In particular, the virtual store can be browsed as if shopping in a physical store offline. Accurate service information about products can be obtained, so that a more realistic shopping experience and coordination service can be provided according to one's own image.

In addition, it is possible to effectively compare and compare strategic products desired from the shopping mall's point of view, thereby reducing the time and cost of product sourcing, and by using product information and detailed information easily, effectively securing similar competitors. As it can be searched by, it is expected that not only can a drastic reduction of product planning, but also an agency work, and the construction time of the shopping mall and the corresponding cost can be expected.

In addition, the member company, a product supplier, can eliminate the overlapping investment in marketing costs and easily secure new targets on target online, as well as greatly reduce the time and cost required for product promotion. Many effects can be provided, such as being able to effectively measure the response of the consumer (user) and the shopping mall.
