The present invention may be variously modified and have various embodiments, and specific embodiments will be illustrated in the drawings and described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood, however, that the invention is not intended to be limited to the particular embodiments, but includes all modifications, equivalents, and alternatives falling within the spirit and scope of the invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In addition, numerals (e.g., first, second, etc.) used in the description of the present invention are merely an identifier for distinguishing one component from another.

Also, in this specification, when an element is referred to as being "connected" or "connected" with another element, the element may be directly connected or directly connected to the other element, It should be understood that, unless an opposite description is present, it may be connected or connected via another element in the middle.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention described in the drawings will be described. However, the present specification mainly describes a novel information processing system centering on the case of utilizing a two-dimensional bar code throughout, but the technical principle of the present invention to be described below uses an electronic tag such as an RFID tag or an NFC tag. The information processing system in the case may be dedicated or extended. That is, the technical principle of the present invention is not limited to only some embodiments illustrated through the following description, and it will be readily understood by those skilled in the art that the present invention can be easily extended to a case utilizing an electronic tag.

For example, since the RFID tag is read only, it can be regarded as substantially the same as the case utilizing the two-dimensional bar code to be described later. Therefore, the invention principle described in the following embodiment can be used as it is. That is, the specific data may be input in association with the "unique identification information" of the RFID tag. The same is true for other electronic tags other than RFID tags, which are read only (data output only). In addition, NFC tag has a similar characteristic as RFID tag but can be read as well as write (data input), but even in this case, if using the principles of the present invention described below, each user can easily and quickly The principle of the present invention can also be applied as it is possible to store (write) by associating various desired data with "unique identification information" of the NFC tag. That is, in the case of using the NFC tag, in addition to the existing read and write methods, the contents of the input and output of the data are further expanded according to the principles of the present invention. In the case where an electronic tag is utilized as in the above description, the barcode reader to be described below will be replaced by a reader (eg, an RFID reader, an NFC reader, etc.) capable of reading the electronic tag or communicating with the electronic tag. .

In addition, the following description will focus on the case of a two-dimensional bar code, but not necessarily limited to the two-dimensional bar code, it is possible to apply the principles of the present invention to the existing bar code as well as various types of bar codes to be released in the future. Those skilled in the art will also readily understand.

1 is a view showing a two-dimensional bar code information processing system according to an embodiment of the present invention connected to a user terminal and a network, Figure 2 is a block diagram of a two-dimensional bar code information processing system according to an embodiment of the present invention 3 is a flowchart schematically showing an overall data input / output method for a 2D barcode through the 2D barcode information processing system of FIG. 2.

According to the present invention, after a two-dimensional bar code having an identification number is produced or sold in advance, a purchaser who purchases an object having the two-dimensional bar code attached or printed thereon, or a child possessing the two-dimensional bar code attached / printed item, A guardian, such as a dementia patient, provides a two-dimensional bar code information processing system that can directly input a specific message (data) to the two-dimensional bar code. Through this, the present invention is to provide a two-dimensional barcode information processing system that can conveniently deliver (show) the message entered by the buyer or guardian to the person who scanned the two-dimensional barcode in the future.

Hereinafter, a two-dimensional barcode information processing system according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 4 to 10 with reference to FIGS. 1 to 3.

The two-dimensional barcode information processing system 200 according to the embodiment of the present invention may be communicatively connected to external communication terminals 110, 120, and 130 through a wired or wireless communication network 300 as shown in FIG. 1. At this time, the external communication terminal may be a mobile terminal (ie, a mobile communication terminal 110, 120) using a wireless network as shown in FIG. 1, or a fixed terminal 130 using a wired network such as a wired internet network. It may be.

In addition, in the drawings attached to this specification as a two-dimensional barcode (Quick Response Code, see reference numeral 10 of FIG. 1) as an example, the two-dimensional barcode is not limited to such a QR code, of course to be.

2, the two-dimensional barcode information processing system 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention, the transceiver 210, the input UI providing unit 220, data mapping unit 230, data extraction unit 240 ), An output UI providing unit 250, a UI control unit 260, an identification number confirmation unit 270, and an identification number DB 280.

However, since the components illustrated in FIG. 2 are not essential, a two-dimensional barcode information processing system having more or fewer components may be implemented. In addition, although the components shown in FIG. 2 may have a hardware configuration, some of them may be functional units implemented in software. Hereinafter, the functions performed by the components will be briefly described with reference to FIG. 3.

The transceiver 210 transmits and receives data with an external communication terminal through a wired or wireless communication network.

The transceiver 210 receives data from a communication terminal (hereinafter, referred to as a first user terminal) of an external user who wants to input data for a 2D barcode through the 2D barcode information processing system 200 according to the present invention. An input request can be received. In addition, the transceiver 210 is connected to the two-dimensional bar code information processing system 200 according to the present invention, the communication terminal of the external user who wants to see the data corresponding to the two-dimensional bar code (hereinafter referred to as the second user terminal) Can receive a data read request. In addition, the transceiver 210 may receive a unique identification number included in the corresponding two-dimensional barcode (that is, recorded) in the above-described process.

The input UI providing unit 220, when receiving a data input request for a two-dimensional bar code from the first user terminal (hereinafter, assumed to 110 in FIG. 1), two-dimensional to the first user terminal 110 An input UI screen for inputting data into the barcode is provided (see step S310 of FIG. 3). In this case, the input UI screen may be the same as, for example, FIGS. 6 to 10.

In the present specification, "data input request for a two-dimensional bar code" means a first user terminal 110 as a user directly selects a specific menu item (eg, [data input] menu item) provided on an input UI screen. It may be a request message transmitted from the system 200 to the system 200, but it may be considered that there is a data input request based on specific information transmitted from the user terminal. This will be described later through a separate example, but, for example, when the user automatically connects to the system 200 of the present invention through a URL link included in a two-dimensional barcode, the data input request may be regarded as received. It may be that. That is, those skilled in the art need to clearly understand that the case in which the data input request is received may be different depending on the actual implementation method of the system 200 of the present invention. This may be equally applied to the case of "a data output request for a two-dimensional bar code" described below.

When the data input from the first user terminal 110 is completed through the input UI screen, the data mapping unit 230 inputs the completed data from the first user terminal 110 to the unique identification number included in the corresponding two-dimensional barcode ( This will be referred to as first user input data hereinafter) (see step S320 of FIG. 3).

Subsequently, when a data read request for the corresponding 2D barcode is received from the second user terminal (hereinafter, referred to as reference numeral 120 of FIG. 1), the data extracting unit 240 is assigned to the unique identification number of the corresponding 2D barcode. The first user input data correspondingly stored are extracted from the data mapping unit 230 (see step S330 of FIG. 3).

The output UI providing unit 250 may allow the first user input data extracted by the data extracting unit 240 to be confirmed in the second user terminal 120 (that is, the second user terminal 120). To display on the display screen), an output UI screen for outputting the first user input data to the second user terminal 120 (see step S340 of FIG. 3). In this case, the output UI screen may be the same as, for example, (c) of FIGS. 11 to 13.

As described above, in the present invention, "data input for a two-dimensional bar code" does not record specific data in the two-dimensional bar code itself, but associates the specific data with a unique identification number recorded in the two-dimensional bar code ( Corresponding) means that another user can read the corresponding two-dimensional bar code later and then access the system 200 of the present invention in which the corresponding input data is stored so that the input data can be confirmed.

In addition, in an embodiment of the present invention, the UI control unit 260 controls whether to provide an input UI screen or an output UI screen at the first corresponding point in time when an external communication terminal is connected. The identification number confirmation unit 270 performs validation on the unique identification number received from the external communication terminal. Comparison data for validating the unique identification number is registered in the identification number DB (280).

In the above, a brief function of each component of FIG. 2 has been described with reference to FIG. 3. In the flowchart of FIG. 3, steps S310 and S320 correspond to a data input process for a two-dimensional barcode in the present invention, and steps S330 and S340 correspond to a data output (read) process for a two-dimensional barcode. Therefore, hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail by dividing the data input process and the data output process. In this case, reference is made to FIGS. 4 to 13 together.

[Detailed Explanation of Data Entry Process for 2D Barcode]

In order to understand the data input process for the two-dimensional bar code, it is necessary to first clearly understand the configuration of the two-dimensional bar code that can be applied to the two-dimensional bar code information processing system according to the present invention.

Composition of 2D Barcode

The two-dimensional barcode which is premised on applying the two-dimensional barcode information processing system capable of data input / output according to the present invention may be configured as follows. For convenience of explanation, the two-dimensional barcode applicable to the present invention will be referred to as a smart barcode.

Conventional two-dimensional barcodes are pre-recorded with specific data (e.g., URL links on our website for corporate promotion, product information for the item, user information ordered by a specific individual, or phrase information specified by the user). It is produced in a state. That is, according to the prior art, in order to input specific data into a two-dimensional bar code, a user must first order the barcode maker so that the specific data can be recorded in the bar code before the two-dimensional bar code is produced.

In contrast, the smart bar code applied to the present invention is produced in a state in which only a unique identification number capable of distinguishing the bar code from other bar codes is recorded. Here, the state where only the unique identification number is recorded means that there is no other input data requested by the user. That is, the smart barcode is essentially distinguished from the conventional two-dimensional barcode in that input data requested by the user does not need to be recorded in advance.

Here, the unique identification number is a concept of including all kinds of identifiers regardless of the type, as long as the smart barcode can distinguish and identify other smart barcodes. The unique identification number may be write protected if necessary to prevent the identification number from being changed by the user.

Of course, the data other than the input data of the user request may be further recorded in the smart barcode according to the present invention. In one embodiment, the smart bar code includes a web site provided by the two-dimensional bar code information processing system 200 to provide the user with information about the two-dimensional bar code information processing system 200 according to the present invention. URL address information of a web site provided for inputting / outputting data of the smart barcode may be further included.

In this case, the URL address information of the web site provided by the two-dimensional bar code information processing system 200 may be simply written in a smart barcode in a text form, but in a form such as a URL link for convenience of the user's access to the web site. It may be recorded as

Hereinafter, for convenience of description, the smart barcode applied to the present invention may be regarded as a barcode in a state where input data of a user request does not exist (that is, there is no content), and only the barcode is compared with other barcodes. It is assumed that only the unique identification number for distinguishing identification and the URL link of the system 200 of the present invention are recorded.

2D barcode making sun

The production aspect of the smart barcode as described above may be as follows.

In one embodiment, the smart barcode may be manufactured in the form of a sticker on which the barcode is printed. In such a case, the user can easily purchase a smart barcode sticker at a place of purchase, such as a convenience store or stationery store, and by simply attaching the purchased sticker to a specific item, the user intends to use it for his intended purpose (prevention of loss of the item, prevention of loss, gift) Message).

In other embodiments, smart barcodes may be sold printed or attached in the form of labels to particular articles. In such cases, the manufacturer or seller of the goods may, in addition to the functional effects of the product, promote the use of smart bar code labels for specific purposes in accordance with the user's preferences (e.g., if you are a clothing seller, this apparel product may Can be additionally obtained.

As another embodiment, the smart barcode may be manufactured in the form of accessories. In this case, the accessory including the smart barcode may be effectively used for protecting the protected person by having the protected person, such as a child or an elderly person, wear it around his neck or carry it.

However, hereinafter, for convenience of description, it is assumed that a smart barcode is manufactured in the form of a sticker, and a user who purchases the smart barcode attaches it to a specific item and inputs data (ie, a message) intended for the user. .

2D Barcode Data Entry Process

It is assumed that a user who purchases a smart barcode sticker attaches a smart barcode sticker to the article for the purpose of preventing the loss of owned article. The user reads the smart barcode printed on the sticker into his own terminal such as a smartphone.

Therefore, it is preferable that the user terminal is equipped with a barcode reader capable of reading a two-dimensional barcode. Recently, due to the spread of smart phones, it is common to implement a user environment that can universally use a barcode reader capable of reading two-dimensional barcodes such as QR codes. Here, the barcode reader encompasses all devices and software (application programs) capable of decoding two-dimensional barcodes, regardless of the terminology used in this regard.

Of course, the data input process of the two-dimensional bar code according to the present invention does not necessarily need to be made by using a terminal owned, it is obvious that the barcode reader is not necessarily mounted on the terminal owned by itself.

In addition, even when the barcode reader is mounted on the own terminal, the data input process for the actual two-dimensional barcode may be performed using another terminal. For example, even if a user checks the contents (unique identification number and URL link) recorded in the smart barcode using his smartphone, more extensive data or specific data not stored in the smartphone (for example, For example, the user may want to input an image file, a video file, etc. stored in the PC corresponding to the smart barcode.

As described above, when the two-dimensional barcode is decoded by the barcode reader, the unique identification number of the corresponding smart barcode and the URL link are displayed on the screen of the user terminal. In this case, by selecting (touching or clicking) the URL link displayed on the terminal screen, the user may automatically access the web site provided by the two-dimensional barcode information processing system 200 for data input of the two-dimensional barcode.

At this time, when automatically accessing a web site, the first UI screen may be as shown in FIG. 6A illustrates a login screen. That is, when a user accesses a web site for data input of a two-dimensional bar code, an initial user confirmation procedure may be required. If the user is not an existing member, a membership registration procedure as shown in FIG. 6B may be further required.

Of course, when the unique information of the connected terminal is transmitted when the web site is automatically connected, the user identification procedure as described above in the data input process may be omitted when the terminal is configured to automatically identify the corresponding terminal. However, even in such a case, a user confirmation procedure may be required in consideration of the possibility of the theft of a terminal by another person.

In addition, unlike the data input process for the 2D bar code, the user verification procedure as described above may be preferably not required in the data output process of the 2D bar code except for a special case. Accordingly, the two-dimensional barcode information processing system 200 may provide an input UI screen (that is, whether the user is connected for data input) or an output UI screen when a specific user accesses the web site. You need to decide whether the user is connected to read data.

Of course, there may be a method of simply displaying a [data input] item and a [read data] item in advance on a UI screen initially provided on a website screen, and inducing a user to select one of them. However, such a method is somewhat inconvenient for a user who wants to read data.

Therefore, in one embodiment of the present invention, whether to provide an initial input UI screen or an output UI screen when a user accesses a website may be determined by the following method. This will be described with reference to FIG.

Referring to FIG. 4, first, the two-dimensional barcode information processing system 200 receives a unique identification number recorded on the smart barcode (see step S410 of FIG. 4). In this case, the manual identification method by the user may be used for receiving the unique identification number, but the following methods may be used. For example, when there is a barcode reader application program specialized for smart barcodes, a method of implementing a method of transmitting a unique identification number recorded in the smart barcode to the system 200 of the present invention when a user selects a URL link to access a website. This can be used. As another example, a method that can be implemented irrespective of a barcode reader is used, in which a unique link number is also linked to a URL link when the smart barcode is produced, and the information on the unique link number is also transmitted when the URL link is selected. May be

Hereinafter, for convenience of description of the present invention, the case where the unique identification number of the smart barcode is transmitted from the user terminal to the system 200 of the present invention in the process of automatic access through the URL link, request for data input from the user or Assume that a data output request has been received.

When the unique identification number of the corresponding smart barcode is received as described above, the identification number confirmation unit 270 in the system 200 of the present invention verifies the validity of the received unique identification number (see step S420 of FIG. 4). . In this case, comparison data (hereinafter, referred to as a reference identification number) to be used for validating the identification number may be registered in the expression number DB 280. That is, a unique identification number (that is, a reference identification number) of each of the two-dimensional barcodes manufactured to enable data input and output through the system 200 of the present invention is registered in the identification number DB 280 in advance.

Accordingly, the identification number confirmation unit 270 may check whether the unique identification number received from the user terminal is registered in the identification number DB 280, and may not provide an input UI screen or an output UI screen if the registration number is not registered. . Alternatively, an error message can be displayed on the screen. Alternatively, if it corresponds to a registered identification number. It is determined whether there is data corresponding to the registered unique identification number (see step S430 and step S440 in Fig. 4).

According to the determination result, when there is no data corresponding to the unique identification number, the UI control unit 260 assumes that a data input request for a smart barcode is received from the user, and inputs the data input UI screen to be provided by default. The UI providing unit 220 may be controlled (see step S450 of FIG. 4). On the contrary, if there is data corresponding to the unique identification number, the UI controller 260 considers that a data output request for the smart barcode is received from the user, and output UI providing unit so that a data output UI screen is provided by default. 250) (see step S460 of FIG. 4).

However, steps S440 to S460 of FIG. 4 are merely examples, and other methods may be employed. In addition, although the output UI screen is provided by default when data corresponding to the unique identification number exists, the actual user intention may be intended to modify or delete data corresponding to the unique identification number. Therefore, in this case, an output UI screen may be provided as a default, but a selection menu item may be displayed in the output UI screen to switch to the input UI screen. In this case, it is obvious that a user login procedure may be required before switching from the output UI screen to the input UI screen in order to prevent data entry by unauthorized persons.

In the above, the method of distinguishing the UI screen to be initially displayed has been described. Hereinafter, the data input method on the actual input UI screen will be described. For this purpose, reference is made to FIGS. 5 to 10 together.

Referring to FIG. 5, a user first goes through a user login or member registration process through a UI screen illustrated in FIG. 6 (see step S510 of FIG. 5).

When the user verification process is completed, the system 200 of the present invention may analyze the type of the unique identification number of the smart barcode (see step S520 of FIG. 5). For example, a unique identification number is specifically for use by a specific company consistently matching its brand, etc., in addition to an identification number assigned to a general individual user (hereinafter referred to as an individual identification number). There may also be an assigned identification number (hereinafter referred to as a group identification number). That is, steps S520, S532, and S534 of FIG. 5 correspond to the steps in which the special case as described above is assumed. That is, the above-described steps are arbitrary steps for varying the input form for configuring the input UI screen according to whether the corresponding unique identification number corresponds to the individual identification number or the group identification number.

As described above, the input form is determined according to the type of the identification number (or the input form may be selected in the case of an individual identification number. The selectable input forms are shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 (a), (b) and (c). ), The user may enter data to be input by the user according to a menu item of the corresponding input form. In this case, the data input method may be a direct input method, but a data copy method may be used (see step S540 of FIG. 5). In this case, as shown in FIG. 9, the data copy method is a unique method for inputting data that is currently input by using a copy method corresponding to another unique identification number (that is, another smart barcode) owned by the copy method. Means the input method corresponding to the identification number.

In this case, the inputtable data is not limited to text, and data of various formats (for example, data (or files) such as images, videos, music, web documents, and voices) may be included therein. To implement this, the input UI screen may be configured as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8.

When the data input is completed as described above, the data mapping unit 230 correspondingly stores the data input from the user to the corresponding unique identification number (see step S550 of FIG. 5). In this case, when data is input by a data copy method, one input data may be group-mapped and stored in a plurality of unique identification numbers.

Although the above description has been made on the assumption that the smartphone is equipped with a barcode reader, the above-described data input method is the same or similar in the case of other communication terminals (refer to the user PC shown by reference numeral 130 of FIG. 1) without the barcode reader. Of course, it can be applied. In this case, the web site provided by the system 200 of the present invention will be accessed in a PC web environment through a wired / wireless internet rather than a mobile web environment. In addition, in the case of a PC, the environment may not be equipped with a barcode reader. In such a case, it may be necessary to directly access the website through a manual input by a user and directly input a unique identification number of a smart barcode. have. An input UI screen assuming such a case is illustrated in FIGS. 10A and 10B.

For example, the user may wish to input data such as a specific file which is not stored in the smart phone in association with the unique identification number of the smart bar code (ie, corresponding). In this case, the user may manually enter a unique identification number on the UI screen as shown in FIG. 10 (b) by manually accessing the corresponding web site, and may input data in the same or similar manner as described above. .

In the above description, only the first case of data input has been described. However, those skilled in the art will readily understand that data can be modified or deleted by adding a separate UI screen or menu using the same similar method as it is.

[Description of Data Output Process for 2D Barcode]

In the above, the data input process for the 2D barcode by the user has been described. Hereinafter, the data output (ie, read) process for the 2D barcode by another user will be described.

The data output process for the two-dimensional barcode according to the present invention is substantially similar to the data input process described above. However, as data writing is restricted, the UI screen displayed (provided) to the user may be different.

An output UI screen is illustrated through each (c) diagram in FIGS. 11 to 13. This output UI screen is automatically read to the web site provided by the system 200 of the present invention by selecting a URL link after another user (for example, lost or found, gift recipient, etc.) read the smart barcode. The screen shown when connected is an example.

When referring to the output UI screen shown in Figs. 11 to 13, it can be seen that in the case of a contact, an email, a URL address, etc. among the output data, it is displayed in a state that can be directly connected according to the user's selection. That is, when a data inputter inputs a contact, an email, and a URL address, the output UI providing unit 250 may click-to-call to the inputter's contact, click-to-mail to the inputter's email, or access the shortcut's URL address. It is possible to provide an output UI screen to enable this.

In addition, the output UI providing unit 250 may limit a user who can read the corresponding data according to the nature of the input data. For example, for the purpose of preventing loss or protection of the ward, it is desirable for anyone to see the input data.However, in the case of a message attached to a gift or a message containing personal information (for example, a proposal message) It may be desirable to limit the message to only certain people allowed by the input.

To this end, the input UI providing unit 220 may provide a read permission input item for designating a user having a data read permission through the input UI screen. Therefore, when the data inputter designates a user who can read the corresponding data through the read permission input item, the output UI providing unit 250 reads the data to the corresponding communication terminal that has made a data read request before providing the output UI screen. By providing a UI screen for checking the permissions, it is possible to prevent unauthorized people from viewing private messages.

[Application Mode of the Present Invention]

Hereinafter, the use aspect and application field of the two-dimensional barcode which can be implemented by the two-dimensional barcode information processing system of the present invention will be described by way of example. For convenience of understanding this, reference will be made to FIGS. 11 to 13. 11 to 13, (a) shows a data input UI screen, (b) shows an article on which a two-dimensional bar code is attached or printed, and (c) shows a data output UI screen.

However, the use mode to which the present invention is applicable is, of course, not limited to the use mode and application examples to be described below. That is, the following description should be understood as being described for the purpose of more clearly understanding the contents of the present invention by explaining the use examples according to the present invention through specific examples.

Use for the purpose of preventing the loss of goods (see FIG. 11)

Suppose a user has purchased a smartphone. A user who is a smartphone buyer can, for example, have a barcode reader (a two-dimensional barcode sticker by the system of the present invention) attached to the smartphone with a barcode reader (this includes a barcode reader application). To the 2D bar code information processing system of the present invention, and in case someone else reads the bar code (when someone has acquired the lost smartphone), enter the buyer's own contact information and a simple request. You can put it.

Use for the purpose of protecting children / patients etc. (see Fig. 12)

The two-dimensional bar code according to the system of the present invention can be applied to clothes, shoes, or the like worn by a protector such as a child or a dementia patient. Here, the application of the two-dimensional bar code may be sold in the state of being attached to the wear or belongings in the form of a label, or after being sold in the form of a sticker may be attached directly to the wear or belongings of the protectee.

In this case, the guardian scans a two-dimensional barcode attached to the wearer's wear or belongings in the form of a label or to be attached in the form of a sticker, and then, through the two-dimensional barcode information processing system of the present invention, the guardian's information such as the guardian's information is applied. By inputting it to the dimensional barcode, it is possible to prepare for an accident such as a missing person.

Use for other specific informational purposes (see Figure 13)

For example, when a user wants to deliver a special message with a gift (a book in the example of FIG. 13) to an acquaintance, a barcode sticker according to the system of the present invention is purchased at a convenience store, stationery store, etc. You can scan a two-dimensional bar code and enter a message to send to an acquaintance.

As another example, after purchasing a bar code sticker according to the system of the present invention at a particular place of purchase, enter a specific URL address, such as his blog or mini homepage on the two-dimensional bar code and delivers it to a friend or lover, the friend or lover By allowing direct access to the URL address of your blog or mini homepage, you can deliver a vast amount of data that is difficult to deliver in messages or letters.

As another example, a two-dimensional bar code image by the system of the present invention in a pen case can be printed on the product at the production stage, and a message inputted by the buyer can be delivered to a friend or the like.
