Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating a concept of a method of enabling a credit card to be used as an ID card and a computer-readable recording medium having recorded thereon the program according to the present invention.

In the present invention, the ID card is an ID card issued for the purpose of proving his or her identity such as a resident registration card, an employee card, a student card, a license card, an apartment pass, and a member at a company such as a department store, a condo, a sports center, a hospital, etc. Refers to the general term membership card issued for management purposes. A credit card is a credit card that combines a transportation card or a transportation card function, and manages payment details and credit information of customers in financial institutions such as banks. Refers to an R / F (Radio Frequncy) card, a Smart (IC) card, a barcode card, a magnetic card, etc. issued to do so.

First, the present invention uses the member management system 30, which is already used individually in each public institution, organization, company, apartment management office, etc. as it is, the user RF RF / IC credit card (10) that he owns When contacted with the / IC reader 20 in a non-contact or / and contact, the RF / IC reader 20 reads the user identification number of the RF / IC credit card 10, that is, the production serial number of the IC chip ) At this time, the RF / IC reader 20 reads the user's unique number of the RF / IC credit card 10 and transmits it to the member management system 30 through the interface, which the RF / IC reader 20 provides. RS 232, RS 485, Wiegand, etc. are commonly used as the interface.

Subsequently, the member management system 30, which has received the user's unique number of the RF / IC credit card 10, searches the database to check whether the user's unique number exists, and if the registered number is the work of the corresponding management program. In the case of the unregistered number, the existing database is connected to match other matching data, and then the registered non-registered credit card unique number of the unregistered user is added to a separate field of the matching data. If no data matches the existing database, a new database is created.

Therefore, the present invention records the user's unique number (production serial number of the IC chip) of the RF / IC credit card as a separate field value on the corresponding program, so that it is used as an authentication key (ID) for identification purposes It can be used as an ID card without issuing a card, and it can be used for all RF / IC card readers that are used for reading RF / IC cards.

In addition, such a credit card unique number is a unique serial number assigned to the production of the IC chip, and has a search number system that is different from that of a general ID card. Therefore, an RF / IC credit card can be used by any institution or organization around the world. Since duplicate IDs do not occur according to the characteristics of each public organization, organizations, organizations, companies will exhibit a new function with better security and identification than ID cards issued by each.

First, RF / IC is used to use the existing member management system, resident management program, member management program, employee management program, and apartment access management program, which are used individually by each existing public institution, group, company, apartment management center, etc. The reader reads the RF / IC credit card's user ID (IC serial number) and searches the database of the member management system to check whether the user ID is read ( S10 ~ S11).

If the registered user has a user ID number, the relevant program is performed by the management program of the member management system. If the non-registrant does not have a user ID number, the lead RF / IC credit card is held for new registration. The user's personal information, i.e., a different search key value such as the user's name and / or resident registration number, is requested (S12 to S13).

Subsequently, as shown in FIG. 4, a data value (name or / and / or a match key value), which is read from the RF / IC reader and transmitted through the RS 232 interface, is matched on the existing database of the member management system. If there is a resident registration number, etc.), the non-registrant's credit card unique number (customer's unique number in the drawing) is automatically registered in a separate field in the database of the non-registrant, which already exists to identify residents, affiliates, employees, residents, etc. It is used as an authentication key (ID) to be used (S14 to S17).

In addition, the present invention implements a computer-readable recording medium carrying a program source relating to a method for making the above-mentioned credit card usable as an ID card.

As a result, RF / IC credit cards held by a specific person belonging to the relevant public institution, organization, or company in a separate field in the management program of the member management system, which are already used individually by each existing public institution, organization, or company. Record the user's unique number (the serial number of the IC chip) and use it as the identification key for identification.

Those skilled in the art will appreciate that various changes and modifications can be made without departing from the technical spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the technical scope of the present invention is not limited to the contents described in the accompanying drawings and the detailed description of the specification.

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to use the ID card / member card only by the unique number of the transportation card or the credit card combined with the transportation card function, without having to issue a new expensive ID card for identification. The company's retirement management, government office document issuance management, apartment access management, store points and customer management, etc. can be used in various places.

In addition, the present invention is applied to all the citizens of the Republic of Korea by using the unique number of the credit card (serial serial number of the IC chip) possessed by the RF / IC card users to the database already established or newly established database. There is an effect that can expand the use of existing credit cards and more versatile and convenient.
