3 is a flowchart illustrating an embodiment of a method for providing product information according to the present invention.

Customers who visit the store can visit various stores to see the products they want and can also buy the products they want.

On the other hand, a customer who purchases a desired product visits a digital information providing device (DID) that is placed in the store where the product was purchased or is publicly arranged within the store, and digitally stores the product code attached to the purchased product. The digital information providing apparatus is input to the digital information providing apparatus using the reader of the information providing apparatus (302). This process may be performed by the customer independently, but may also be performed by the clerk of the store where the product is sold at the request of the customer. Here, the input process as described above may be performed not only by the reader but also by the user selection unit. In addition, the above input process does not necessarily have to be performed when a product is purchased. Therefore, even a user who wants to purchase a product can perform the above input process. However, hereinafter, it will be described that the user who purchased the product performs the above input process for convenience of description.

The user who inputs the product code for the purchased product reads the purchased product information output through the output unit, checks whether the product is related to the purchased product, and then the item of the product that the user wants to purchase additionally or shopping with respect to the purchased product (Hereinafter, simply referred to as 'additional product item') is selected using the user selection unit (304). For example, a user who purchases a shirt (purchased product) can check the purchase product information (price, color, size, etc.) of the shirt he purchased by entering a product code for the shirt, and purchase a shirt. One user will want to purchase a pair of shirts to match with the shirt, so he may choose pants as an additional commodity item.

The controller which receives the additional product item, when the recommended product information about the inputted additional product item is stored in the data storage unit, the recommended product information that is determined to be the best match with the purchased product among the corresponding recommended product information The extracted product is output through the display unit and the speaker, and if it is not stored, it receives the recommended product information from the store management apparatus and outputs it (306). In the above example, when pants are input as an additional product item, the controller first searches the data storage to determine whether additional product information for the pants is stored. The shirt information that can be well matched is extracted and output as recommended product information. In this case, when there is no product information on the pants, the recommended product information is received and output through the same path from the store management apparatus.

Here, the recommended product information is extracted by the controller of the digital information providing apparatus or the controller of the store management apparatus using a preset lookup table or taste information input by the user through the user selection unit. A lookup table is a database of matching information between products using a product sales trend or a survey by a user of a store or a store, for example, matching information such as a blue striped shirt matching navy pants. . Meanwhile, the user may directly input his or her taste information through the user selection unit. For example, a user who purchases a blue striped shirt may input blue pants or striped pants as taste information.

If the user does not like the recommended product information output through the display unit, the user may repeatedly request the recommended product information, and the controller may repeatedly search for and output another recommended product information.

On the other hand, during the process 306, the user may try on or directly wear the purchased goods and recommended products in the virtual reality. That is, when the user selects one of the recommended products output according to the specific recommended product information, and then selects the virtual experience menu, the controller outputs a virtual person, for example, a processed person provided graphically. For example, the user may directly wear a shirt purchased by the user and pants, which is a recommended product, to the virtual person and then output the image. In this case, the controller may receive the body information of the customer from the customer in order to output a more realistic image. However, when the digital information providing apparatus is connected to a device capable of receiving image information through an interface, the shirt and pants may be directly corresponded to the input image information of the customer by directly receiving the image information of the customer. That is, the customer can select a recommendation product having a more specific color and design suitable for his body through the virtual experience as described above.

When the customer who selects the desired recommendation product through the above process requests the sales product information, the controller provides the sales product information about the recommended product, for example, the price and size of the recommended product (308). ). In this case, when the recommended product is not sold in the current store, the controller may receive information about the store selling the recommended product from the store management apparatus and output the information in a map format. Therefore, after completing the payment for the purchased product, the customer may visit the store selling the recommended product by referring to the map information of the store for the recommended product and purchase the recommended product.

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 should not be limited to the contents described in the detailed description of the specification but should be defined by the claims.
