The sensor unit 430 senses that a pressing action is applied to the touch unit 105 of the touch device 100 through the hand of a person and the confirmation unit 460 senses that the touch unit 105 105 is judged to be the touch of the touching unit 105. [ For example, even if the user presses the touch device 100 on the iron plate, the confirmation unit 460 can confirm that the touch unit 105 is touched. That is, the confirmation unit 460 does not check the necessary and sufficient condition for the electrostatic touch of the touch unit 105, but may check a sufficient condition or a necessary condition.

5 illustrates a case where a predetermined number of touch points touched on the capacitive touch screen 605 of the terminal 600 are recognized and a code value designated through Bluetooth is recognized, The touch authentication processing using the Bluetooth built-in touch device 100 (for example, the touch device 100 held at a specific merchant) manufactured by disposing the specified number of touch parts 105 is performed. In such a case, A person skilled in the art will be able to refer to and / or modify FIG. 5 to provide a variety of functional configurations of the system It will be appreciated that the method of operation (e.g., some of the components may be omitted, or fragmented, or combined) may be inferred, And all the methods to be inferred, and the technical features thereof are not limited only by the method shown in FIG.

The physical system configuration of the present invention includes a touch device 100 manufactured by providing a Bluetooth module 400 for disposing a specified number of capacitive touchable touch units 105 and transmitting a specified code value, And a terminal 600 having a touch unit 105 having a capacitive touchable electrostatic touch screen 605 and a Bluetooth unit 610 for receiving a Bluetooth based radio frequency signal, And may further include a server 524 that communicates with the terminal 600. Hereinafter, the electrostatic touch using the touch device 100 will be referred to as a module touch for the sake of distinguishing the electrostatic touch by the human finger from the electrostatic touch using the touch device 100, The number of touch units 105 included in the touch panel 100 may be one touch unit 105 when the module touch is authenticated in cooperation with the Bluetooth module 400. However, Will be mainly described.

However, the terminal 600 indicated in the present invention is by no means limited to the wireless terminal and may include any device (e.g., laptop, smart TV, navigation device, etc.) having an electrostatic touchscreen 605 .

The touch device 100 includes a Bluetooth module 400 for placing a predetermined number of touch parts 105 electrostatically touchable on a capacitive touch screen 605 provided in the terminal 600 and transmitting a designated code value, The touch device 100 is preferably provided (or held) on the service provider side providing the module touch-based service.

The franchisee may include a person, a store, an institution, an enterprise, etc. having the touch device 100 (or holding it), and the touch device 100 provided (or held) at the franchisee may identify the franchisee Means for identifying and / or authenticating a service provided by the merchant, means for identifying and / or authenticating an object (e.g., information, card, etc.) necessary for the service provided by the merchant, And is used as at least one means. According to the embodiment of the present invention, the franchisee may have a terminal device for providing a service, and the franchisee may use the terminal device of the user to which the touch device 100 is touched (for example, Terminal) can be used as a device for providing a service.

The logical system configuration of the present invention includes a recognition module 500 for recognizing the touch characteristics of the electrostatic touch sensed on the electrostatic touch screen 605 of the terminal 600, And an authentication module (528) for reading the touch characteristics of the capacitive touches and recognizing touch by the touch device (100) manufactured by the touch module (100) having the designated number of touch parts (105) and the Bluetooth module And a service providing module 588 for providing a designated service on the basis of the touch characteristic authentication result using the authentication module 528 according to a method.

The recognition module 500 includes various terminals 600 (e.g., a smart phone, a tablet PC, a mobile terminal such as a mobile phone) having an electrostatic touch screen 605 that uses an electrostatic touch by a human finger as an input means, And may be embodied in the form of an application installed in the terminal 600 or a program module embedded (or linked to) an application installed in the terminal 600 .

The authentication module 528 may be implemented on the server 524 communicating with the terminal 600 having the recognition module 500 or may be implemented in the terminal 600 by being programmed. Meanwhile, the authentication module 528 may be distributed to the terminal 600 having the electrostatic touch screen 605 and the server 524 on the network according to the embodiment, and thus the present invention is not limited thereto.

The service providing module 588 may be implemented on a server 524 having the authentication module 528 or on a separate server and may be provided with a service module 576 ) To provide a designated service. Depending on the implementation, the recognition module 500 and the service module 576 may be programmed in the same application.

5, the recognition module 500 may be configured to allow the touch device 100, which is manufactured by disposing a predetermined number of electrostatic touchable touch units 105, on the electrostatic touch screen 605 of the terminal 600 A touch characteristic recognition unit 504 for recognizing a touch characteristic designed in the touch device 100 at a touch point and a Bluetooth unit 610 at a point when a predetermined number of touch points are recognized on the capacitive touch screen 605 (For example, a unique code value inherently stored in the Bluetooth module 400 or a disposable code value dynamically generated through the Bluetooth module 400) through the code value recognition unit 508.

The touch characteristic recognition unit 504 recognizes a touch point of a specified number by reading the touch event generated through the operating system of the terminal 600 programmed by the recognition module 500 at least once. The touch characteristic recognition unit 504 can recognize a touch point coordinate of a designated number by reading a touch event generated through the operating system. Alternatively, the touch property recognition unit 504 may recognize a predetermined number of touch events generated through the operating system and recognize a coordinate average value of the designated number of touch points as the touch point touch coordinates according to the execution method.

Since the operating system of the terminal 600 to which the touch device 100 of the present invention is touched is optimized for the electrostatic touch by human fingers, the operating system determines whether the touch event is a touch by a finger of a person, ) Can not distinguish whether it is a module touch. Accordingly, it can be determined that the module touch is performed using the touch device 100 using the Bluetooth-based radio frequency signal transmitted through the Bluetooth module 400 of the touch device 100. Hereinafter, the number of touch units 105 included in the touch device 100 is referred to as 'N'. The N may be a plurality as shown in FIG. 1 or FIG. 2. As shown in FIG. 3, the N may be '1'.

The code value recognizing unit 508 recognizes the Bluetooth value of the Bluetooth-based received data received through the Bluetooth unit 610 of the terminal 600 at the time when N touch points are recognized on the capacitive touch screen 605 of the terminal 600 (E.g., a unique code value or a disposable code value) included in the radio frequency signal. If the code value included in the Bluetooth-based radio frequency signal is not recognized at the touch recognition time, the touch point touched on the electrostatic touch screen 605 is regarded as not being a touch point using the touch device 100 It is acceptable.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the touch device 100 may store a designated unique code value or a designated code generation rule (e.g., a code generation algorithm for generating a disposable code value and / or a fixed seed value and a dynamic (For example, a time, a random number, etc.), and transmits a code value including the unique code value or the disposable code value through a Bluetooth-based radio frequency signal Module 400 (e.g., a Bluetooth chip), and an antenna. According to another embodiment of the present invention, the Bluetooth module 400 for transmitting the Bluetooth-based radio frequency signal and the antenna may include a cradle for holding the touch device 100, various devices provided around the touch device 100, The Bluetooth unit 610 of the terminal 600 in which the module touch is performed in a space where the module touch is performed such as a terminal unit, a pad for placing the terminal 600 to touch the touch device 100, : Within 10 m).

The terminal 600 having the electrostatic touch screen 605 includes a Bluetooth unit 610 for transmitting and receiving the Bluetooth-based radio frequency signal. The code value recognizing unit 508 recognizes the code value of the Bluetooth unit 610 Based on the received Bluetooth-based radio frequency signal and extracts the code value included in the Bluetooth-based radio frequency signal. According to the embodiment of the present invention, the Bluetooth-based radio frequency signal including the code value is transmitted continuously (or periodically) through the Bluetooth module 400 (or broadcast without pairing) And the code value recognizing unit 508 may selectively transmit the code value to the electrostatic touch screen 605 at a time point when N touch points are recognized through the electrostatic touch screen 605, Based on the Bluetooth-based radio frequency signal received through the Bluetooth unit 610, and extracts the code value. Preferably, the touch recognition of the N touch points is performed by receiving a Bluetooth-based radio frequency signal through the Bluetooth unit 610, or by receiving a code included in the Bluetooth-based radio frequency signal received via the Bluetooth unit 610 It can be used as a trigger to extract the value.

The terminal 600 including the capacitive touch screen 605 and the Bluetooth unit 610 further includes a position location module 612 for positioning the GPS based (and / or indoor terrestrial based) The touch characteristic recognition unit 504 can recognize the position information to orient the current position of the terminal 600 through the position positioning module 612. [ Meanwhile, the position information may be provided to the authentication module 528 as one of the components for discriminating the characteristic relation of the N touch coordinates of the touch recognition. In this case, the authentication module 528 may use the position information Thereby identifying or authenticating the electrostatic touch for the N touch points.

5, when the touch device 100 is provided with a plurality of touch units 105 in a designed geometric relationship, the recognition module 500 may recognize that the touch recognized N A module touch reading unit 512 for calculating a component value for determining a geometric relationship between the touch points, and a touch characteristic providing unit 528 for providing touch characteristic information including the calculated component value to a designated authentication module 528. [ (516). In the present invention, the touch characteristic information is a name term for collectively referring to information provided from the recognition module 500 to the authentication module 528, and is not limited to a data structure for providing information once.

The N touch units 105 are disposed on the capacitive touch screen 605. The N touch units 105 are arranged in a predetermined geometric relationship in the touch device 100, To calculate a component value for discriminating the geometric relationship with respect to the N touch points recognized through the touch property recognition unit 504. On the other hand, when one touch unit 105 is provided in the touch device 100, the module touch reader 512 may be omitted.

The present invention can be applied to the touch device 100 by touching the touch device 100 without touching the specific direction or the specific area of the electrostatic touch screen 605 The N touch units 105 provided in the touch device 100 are touched by the electrostatic touch screen 605 so that N touch points are recognized and then the geometric relationship formed by the N touch points is designed Is matched within a specified tolerance range with the geometric relationship in the design of the touch device (100). In order to read the geometric relationship with respect to the N touch points touched by the electrostatic touch screen 605 even if the touch device 100 is touched in any direction of the electrostatic touch screen 605, The coordinate rotation must be accompanied by the coordinate rotation, and the geometric relationship to the N touch points should not be changed or distorted by the coordinate rotation. In order to do this, at least one touch point, which is a reference of the geometric relationship reading or coordinate rotation among the N touch points, must be identified by using the N touch points touched to the electrostatic touch screen 605. However, when the touch device 100 is arranged in a specific direction of the electrostatic touch screen 605 to be predetermined to be touched, or in a state where it is not predetermined to touch a specific area, among the N touch points arbitrarily and randomly selected, It is technically very difficult to specify the touch point always at the same reference point. In order to specify such a reference point, the general touch unit 105, which is not the reference point among the N touch units 105, is formed by arranging geometrical relations according to the same conditions in design, The touch unit 105 is arranged under different conditions different from the general touch unit 105 to specify a reference point among the N touch points touched on the electrostatic touch screen 605. [ Here, the condition for specifying the reference point may be a condition for designing different conditions for the condition including the designated touch portion 105 to be the reference point in the touch device 100 and the condition for providing the remaining general touch portion 105, and / (For example, the shape or the area of the designated touch portion 105 and the general touch portion 105) to be different from the geometric characteristics of the other general touch portions 105 Conditions for designing differently, etc.).

If the touch device 100 is provided with a plurality of touch parts 105 by design, the module touch reading part 512 may read the touch device 100 in any direction of the electrostatic touch screen 605 It is preferable to calculate the component values for the geometric relationship authentication for the N touch points touched to the electrostatic touch screen 605. [ For example, the module touch reading unit 512 may include an element value for determining a reference point of a geometric relationship with respect to the N touch points, an element value for determining a distance relation between N touch points, An element value for determining an angle relation between the reference points and the remaining touch points, an element value for determining an angle relationship between the reference point and the remaining touch points, An element value for discriminating a combination of a distance relation and an angle relation between points, a component value including at least one element value among element values for discriminating a combination of a distance relation and an angle relation between the reference point and the remaining touch points Can be calculated.

According to the method of the present invention, when the touch device 100 is provided with a plurality of touch parts 105 by design, the module touch reading part 512 reads out the space touch characteristics of the touch points of the N touch points A scalar value and a vector value on a coordinate system specified for the N touch points in order to discriminate between the touch point number characteristics and the geometric structure characteristics of the N touch points Component values can be calculated. The coordinate system for calculating the component value may include an orthogonal coordinate system applied to the electrostatic touch screen 605, while the designated coordinate system includes the coordinate system applied to the electrostatic touch screen 605, It is possible to include other coordinate systems defined for interpreting the characteristic relationship with respect to the coordinate system. For example, the component value may be a coordinate value on a specified coordinate system such as A (51, y1), B (52, y2), C (53, y3), D (54, y4) . ≪ / RTI > Alternatively, the component value may be calculated by dividing the line segment value AB, the line segment AC, the line segment AD, the line segment AE, or the like calculated with reference to the coordinate value on the coordinate system and the line segment values such as ∠BAC, ∠BAD, ∠BAE, ∠CAD, ∠CAE, And a scalar value that includes at least one of the same angular values. Or the component value may include a vector value calculated based on a reference point on the coordinate system (for example, an origin on a coordinate system) or a reference line. The reference point for calculating the vector value may be either the origin on the coordinate system or one of the N touch points

In the case where the touch device 100 is provided with a plurality of touch parts 105 by design, the geometric relationship authentication of the present invention can be realized by the geometric relationship of the N touch points touched to the capacitive touch screen 605, (N) of the touch points 105, preferably, the geometric relationship of the N touch points is within a design geometric relationship and within a specified tolerance range (or probability distribution) And analog authentication to authenticate whether the user is proximate. That is, even if the same place of the electrostatic touch screen 605 is touched by using the touch part 105 (or a human finger) provided on the touch device 100, the same coordinate value is always recognized as a touch point . This is because the electrostatic touch using the electrostatic touch screen 605 is a touch as long as it is not a point touch and the midpoint of the touched surface is calculated as a touch point except for some special cases, The calculated touch point is different even if the area of the surface on which the electrostatic touch is recognized or the outline of the touched surface is slightly deformed by noise. For example, the capacitive touch may include a contaminated state of the electrostatic touch screen 605 surface (or the touch portion 105 of the touch device 100), a ground state of the voltage applied to the electrostatic touch screen 605 , A state in which the body of the terminal 600 is used as a ground or the terminal 600 is held in the hand of a person and the human body (or a person standing on the ground) is used as the ground), electromagnetic disturbance around the electrostatic touching unit 105 The same coordinate value is not always recognized as a touch point every time the user touches the same place of the electrostatic touch screen 605 due to various reasons such as the change of the electrostatic touch pressure applied for the electrostatic touch. Accordingly, simply by comparing the touched point touching the electrostatic touch screen 605 with previously registered coordinate values, the authentication success rate of the module touch can only stay at several percent. As the number of touch points increases, The authentication success rate is further lowered. Particularly, in the case of coordinate rotation in order to allow the touch device 100 to be recognized and authenticated even if the touch device 100 is touched in any direction of the electrostatic touch screen 605, The authentication success rate is further lowered. In addition, when the touch units 105 provided in the touch device 100 are close to each other, a touch point to be recognized as two different touch points may be recognized as one touch point.

In the case where the touch device 100 is provided with a plurality of touch parts 105 by design, in order to improve the authentication success rate of the analog touch authentication, the touch part 105 of the touch device 100 is pre- And the module touch reading unit 512 is arranged to match the minimum discrimination recognition distance and the minimum discrimination distance, and the module touch reading unit 512 reads an element value including a touch recognition error assigned to the terminal 600 having the electrostatic touch screen 605, An element value including a probability distribution of the touch recognition error (e.g., a Gaussian probability distribution, etc.), and an element value mapped with the probability distribution, Element values can be calculated. Preferably, the touch recognition error or probability distribution may be applied to read geometric relationships for the N touch points or to compare and analyze geometric relationships in the design.

When the touch device 100 is provided with a plurality of touch units 105 by design, the touch characteristic providing unit 516 basically includes a code value recognized through the code value recognizing unit 508, The touch panel 601 may include a component value for N touch points calculated through the module touch reading unit 512 and a component value for the N touch points including the electrostatic touch screen 605 and the Bluetooth unit 610, And further provides unique authentication information that uniquely identifies the authentication module 600 to the designated authentication module 528. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the touch characteristic information may further include position information of the terminal 600 recognized at the time when the N touch points are recognized.

On the other hand, when the touch device 100 is provided with one touch part 105 in its design, the touch characteristic providing part 516 basically includes the code value recognized by the code value recognizing part 508, The touch characteristic information including the unique information for uniquely identifying the terminal 600 having the electrostatic touch screen 605 and the Bluetooth unit 610 and having the recognition module 500, (528). According to an embodiment of the present invention, the touch characteristic information may further include position information of the terminal 600 recognized at the time when the N touch points are recognized.

The authentication module 528 may be implemented in the terminal 600 having the recognition module 500 or may be implemented in the server 524 on the network. Meanwhile, when the authentication module 528 is implemented in the server 524 on the network, the recognition module 500 accesses the server 524 having the authentication module 528 through the communication network to which the terminal 600 accesses, Or relay communication with the server 524 having the authentication module 528 through a designated relay server (e.g., a service providing server that provides a module-touch-based service).

According to the embodiment of the present invention, the authentication module 528 reads the code value and determines whether the touch device 100 corresponding to the N touch points is the touch device 100 designed and manufactured according to the designated design method, It is possible to identify a specific franchisee having the touch device 100 corresponding to N touch points among a plurality of franchisees. If the N touch points are composed of a plurality of touch points, the authentication module 528 reads out the geometric relationship of the N touch points and the code values, and if the touch device 100 corresponding to the N touch points is designated It is possible to identify a specific franchisee having the touch device 100 corresponding to N touch points among a plurality of franchisees, while recognizing that the touch device 100 is designed according to a design method.

That is, the touch device 100 may be used as an identification means (e.g., ID) for identifying a franchisee having a specific touch device 100 touched to the capacitive touch screen 605 among a plurality of franchisees. In this case, The recognition module 500 does not need to select a merchant from a user before or during the touch device 100 is touched. Meanwhile, according to another embodiment of the present invention, the touch device 100 can be used as authentication means (e.g., a PW matched with the identification means) for authenticating a specific merchant, in which case the recognition module 500 The franchisee identification information for identifying the selected franchisee may be included in the touch characteristic information and may be provided to the authentication module 528 before the touch device 100 is touched. If the touch device 100 is used as an identification means for identifying a particular merchant while simultaneously being used as an authentication means for authenticating the specific merchant, the recognition module 500 may determine whether or not the touch device 100 is to be touched It is acceptable that the user does not select an affiliate shop from the user.

According to the modified embodiment of the present invention, the touch characteristic information may further include a touch identification value capable of identifying the touch device 100 touched to the electrostatic touch screen 605. For example, a procedure for selecting an affiliate shop before the touch device 100 is touched on the electrostatic touch screen 605 may be performed, or the recognition module 500 may be implemented in a dedicated application of a specific affiliate shop The touch characteristic information may include information identifying the franchisee as a touch identification value capable of identifying the touch device 100 touched on the electrostatic touch screen 605. [

Referring to FIG. 5, the authentication module 528 generates authentication information for authenticating whether the N touch points recognized by touching the electrostatic touch screen 605 of the terminal 600 are touches using the touch device 100 And an authentication information storage unit 532 for storing the generated authentication information.

The authentication information storage unit 532 stores one or more code authentication values for authenticating a code value included in a Bluetooth-based radio frequency signal transmitted (or broadcasted) through the Bluetooth module 400 of the touch device 100 And generates or confirms the authentication information including the code authentication value and stores it in the designated storage medium 536. [ Preferably, the code authentication value is a code generation rule for dynamically generating a verification value to be compared with a unique code value or a verification value to be compared with a disposable code value (e.g., a code generation algorithm for generating a one- / Or fixed seed values and dynamic seed values (e.g., time, random number, etc.)).

When the touch device 100 is provided with a plurality of touch parts 105 by design, the authentication information storage part 532 may store geometric shapes of the N touch parts 105 of the touch device 100, And touches the electrostatic touch screen 605 with the design geometric relationship with respect to the N touch units 105 to store the authentication information for authenticating the geometric relationship formed by the recognized N touch points . The geometric relationship in the design may include one or more of a combination of two or more of a design coordinate relationship, a design distance relationship, a design angle relationship, a design coordinate relationship, a distance relationship, and an angle relationship with respect to the N touch parts 105 And may further include design tolerances for each relationship.

According to the method of the present invention, when the touch device 100 is manufactured by disposing the N touch parts 105 in a designed geometrical relationship in design, the manufacturer can designate the touch device 100 as the designated terminal 600 When the geometric relationship of the N touch points repeatedly touched is included in the allowable error range, the touch (605) of the touch screen (605) The device 100 may be supplied to the merchant. Meanwhile, in the repeated touch process for quality control, the tolerance may be adjusted (e.g., adjusted upward or downward) within a designated range based on a design tolerance. In this case, the authentication information storage unit 532 stores And stores the adjusted tolerance in the authentication information. According to the embodiment of the present invention, the touch device 100 supplied to the merchant may be provided with unique identification information (e.g., a serial code) that uniquely identifies each touch device 100.
