Abstract
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an article positioning system and method, and more particularly to an electronic tag that transmits stored tag identification information in response to a radio frequency signal received from a tag reader and a beep signal to indicate the location of the article in response to the radio frequency signal. The present invention relates to an electronic tag including an acoustic device for outputting and an article positioning system and method using the acoustic device.
A recognition system using an electronic tag is a type of automatic recognition technology, and refers to a medium recognition technology that reads data stored in an electronic tag having an integrated circuit chip or the like in a non-contact manner using radio frequency. In particular, an electronic tag is a very small chip having a function of accumulating and transmitting information, and contains identification information and detailed information of a product. When an electronic tag receives a high frequency signal from a tag reader, the electronic tag transmits the stored information to the tag reader. The electronic tag system has superior performance to the bar code system used in the related art in terms of recognition speed, recognition distance, recognition probability, and the like.
Electronic tags are divided into two types according to whether power is supplied. Firstly, the antenna tag and IC chip are composed of passive tags which receive power derived from a tag reader, and second antenna coil and IC chip, as well as a battery. For example, there is an active tag that continuously transmits identification information. Passive tags have the advantage of being very lightweight, inexpensive and semi-permanently available, but have the disadvantage of high power consumption, and active tags have the advantage of reducing the power required of the tag reader and having a long recognition distance. have.
On the other hand, in recent years, as the living environment has changed drastically, the types of portable products carried by each individual have become diverse. For example, it is expanding from general items such as precious metals, wallets, keys, glasses, bags and shoes to high-tech electronic devices such as mobile phones and digital cameras. However, as the kind of article expands, it becomes more difficult to accurately remember the position of the article present in the home, resulting in inconvenience. For example, the time required to find a house key or a car key on the way to work is a problem that can lead to being late to the company.
In order to solve the above problems, the Republic of Korea Patent Publication No. 2003-0055708 of the RF transmission and reception device for preventing loss and theft, and the Republic of Korea related to the loss prevention system for portable products based on a short-range wireless communication network. There is 0045407. However, these inventions, firstly, unnecessary power consumption occurs in that communication must always be made between the transmitter and the receiver, and second, there is a problem that it takes a long time to find the exact location of the lost article.
The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a device that allows the user to easily find the location of the article when the user does not know the current location of the particular article, specifically, the tag reader is close to the target article within a certain distance The present invention provides an article positioning system and method using an electronic tag and a sound device, which includes means for generating a beep sound and means for displaying information on an object.
Product location tracking system according to an embodiment of the present invention for solving the technical problem,
A position tracking device including an electronic tag transmitting stored tag identification information in response to a radiation frequency signal and an acoustic device outputting a stored sound signal in response to the radiation frequency signal, and transmitting the radiation frequency signal to the electronic tag; And a portable terminal device for receiving tag identification information from the electronic tag and displaying the tag identification information on the screen together with the article identification information corresponding to the tag identification information.
Preferably, the position tracking device, characterized in that it comprises a sound device for outputting a sound signal having a magnitude corresponding to the magnitude of the radiation frequency signal.
Preferably, the portable terminal device is characterized in that for transmitting a radiation frequency signal having a magnitude corresponding to the effective recognition distance set by the user.
Article location tracking method according to an embodiment of the present invention for solving the technical problem,
Transmitting the stored tag identification information in response to the radiation frequency signal, outputting the stored sound signal in response to the radiation frequency signal, and receiving the tag identification information together with the article identification information corresponding to the tag identification information. Characterized in that the step of displaying on the screen.
The article location tracking system and method according to the present invention is simple and convenient by attaching a location tracking device having an RFID tag and a sound generating device to the item to be managed, and tracking the location of the article using a tag reader. It is possible to find the location of the object to be managed so that there is an effect that can prevent unnecessary time. In particular, the distance for recognizing the target article can be adjusted according to the user's convenience, thereby providing a customized article tracking service.
In order to fully understand the present invention, the operational advantages of the present invention, and the objects attained by the practice of the present invention, reference should be made to the accompanying drawings which illustrate preferred embodiments of the present invention and the contents described in the drawings.
Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In describing the present invention, if it is determined that the detailed description of the related well-known configuration or function may unnecessarily obscure the subject matter of the present invention, the detailed description thereof will be omitted.

The user attaches the location tracking device including the electronic tag to the desired item (610). The electronic tag stores a tag identification number, and the location tracking device further includes an acoustic device for outputting a beep tone. The position tracking device may comprise a ring-shaped connection means that is easy to attach to the article. The tag identification number is extracted by using the tag reader connected to the portable terminal device to read the electronic tag (620). The tag identification number extracted by the portable terminal device is displayed on the screen.
The article name corresponding to the tag identification number extracted by the user is input (630). The entered article name can be changed. It is possible to attach and use the same electronic tag to another object article. An effective distance for recognizing the location of the article is set 640. The effective distance is preferably 0.5m to 3m. The position tracking of the article is started by transmitting a radiation frequency signal of intensity corresponding to the set effective distance (650). Location tracking of the article is performed by moving the portable terminal device.
When the object is present within the effective distance set by the portable terminal device, the tag identification information is received from the positioning apparatus attached to the object. The portable terminal searches for product identification information corresponding to the received tag identification information and displays it on the screen display (660). The acoustic device outputs the stored beep when the radiation frequency signal is received from the portable terminal (670). The loudness of the signal may vary depending on the relative distance. The user completes positioning of the object article (680).
