1 is an exemplary view illustrating a shoe measuring apparatus system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure;

The shoe measuring apparatus system 10 may comprise a measuring apparatus 100, an electronic apparatus 200 and a user terminal apparatus 300.

The measurement apparatus 100 is configured to acquire the internal space information of the shoe by inserting the shoe into the shoe. At this time, as described later, it may include a fixing portion and a sensor for measuring the space inside the shoe.

The electronic device 200 may receive the shoe inner space information from the measuring device 100. [ Specifically, the electronic device 200 can process the received in-shoe space information and generate three-dimensional information about the space inside the shoe.

The user terminal device 300 may send a user command to the electronic device 200 to control the measurement device 100 and the electronic device 200 may transmit the received user command to the measurement device 100. [ The electronic device 100 receiving the user command may be operable to obtain data for measuring the footwear space.

Also, the user terminal device 300 may obtain the user's foot size information. The user terminal 300 may receive the user's foot information and three-dimensional information about the inner space of the shoe to determine whether the shoe is suitable for the user and provide the user with the information.

At this time, the user terminal 300 may be a smart phone, a tablet personal computer, a mobile phone, a video phone, a desktop personal computer, a laptop a personal computer, a netbook computer, a workstation, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a portable multimedia player (PMP), or a wearable device.

Meanwhile, the electronic device 200 according to one embodiment of the present disclosure may be a server that stores and transmits / receives data. In this case, some functions of the electronic device 200 described above can be performed by the user terminal device 300. [ For example, when the electronic device 200 is configured as a server, the user terminal device 300 may process three-dimensional information about the shoe inner space by processing the shoe inner space information received from the server. However, the present invention is not limited to this configuration, and the electronic device 200 may perform the function of the user terminal device 300 and the measuring device 100 may function as the function of the electronic device 200 and the user terminal device 300 Of course.

2A and 2B are block diagrams showing a configuration of a measuring apparatus according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. 2A, the measuring apparatus 100 includes a stationary section 110, a sensor 120, a communication section 130, and a processor 140. As shown in FIG.

Specifically, the measuring apparatus 100 may be in the form as shown in FIG. 2B. However, it is not limited to the shape shown in FIG. 2B, and it goes without saying that the measuring apparatus may take various forms.

The fixing part 110 is attached to the body of the measuring device 100. [ When the measuring apparatus 100 is inserted into the shoe so as to receive a user command for acquiring the shoe inner space information, the fixing unit 110 is moved outward from the body so as to fix the measuring apparatus 100 to the shoe .

At this time, the fixing unit 110 can move in various ways. For example, the measuring apparatus 100 may include a motor, and the fixing unit 110 may be moved by a motor. However, the present invention is not limited to this embodiment, and it goes without saying that the fixing unit 110 may be fixed to the space inside the shoe using a load cell, a pressure sensor, or the like.

At this time, the fixing unit 110 can not only fix the measuring apparatus 100 to the shoe but also expand the space inside the shoe. That is, even after the fixing unit 110 is moved from the body and the measuring apparatus 100 is fixed in the shoe, the fixing unit 110 continues to move until a predetermined force or pressure is transmitted to the fixing unit 110 The space inside the shoe can be expanded. That is, the measuring apparatus 100 can measure not only the inner space of the shoe but also the expanded inner space in consideration of the material and stretchability of the shoe.

The sensor 120 may acquire specific information about the space inside the shoe. Specifically, when the measuring apparatus 100 is fixed to the shoe by the fixing unit 110, the sensor 120 can acquire information on the space inside the shoe. At this time, the sensor 120 may include at least one of a proximity sensor, a laser sensor, and an infrared sensor. However, it is needless to say that the present invention is not limited to such a configuration, but may be composed of various kinds of sensors for measuring the distance.

The communication unit 130 can perform communication with an external device. Specifically, the communication unit 130 may receive a user command for measuring the space inside the shoe from the external electronic device 200. In addition, the communication unit 130 may transmit the shoe inner space information acquired by the external electronic device 200.

The processor 140 controls the overall operation of the measurement device 100. Specifically, the processor 140 controls the communication unit (not shown) to transmit the shoe inner space information including the data on the distance traveled by the fixed unit 110 and the sensing data obtained by the sensor 120 to the external electronic device 200 130).

In addition, the processor 140 may receive the user command for measuring the inner space of the shoe by controlling the communication unit 130. When the user command is received, the processor 140 may control the fixing unit 110 to measure the space inside the shoe. For example, the processor 140 may control the motor to move the fixing portion 110 away from the main body of the measuring apparatus 100 so as to move in the outward direction.

The processor 140 can control the motor to stop the movement of the fixing unit 110 when a user command preset to the fixing unit is detected. At this time, the predetermined user command may be a pressure value applied to the fixing part 110. [

Specifically, when the fixed portion 110 moves and is brought into close contact with the inner surface of the shoe, the processor 140 determines the movement of the fixed portion 110 if the pressure value sensed by the fixed portion 110 is a preset pressure value. It can be stopped. In this case, the preset pressure value can be determined according to various matters such as the material of the shoe.

The processor 140 may determine the distance traveled by the fixed portion 110 when the fixed portion 110 stops and acquire data on the distance traveled by the fixed portion 110. [ Data about the distance traveled by the fixture 110 may be used in conjunction with sensing data to generate three-dimensional information about the inner space of the shoe.

Figs. 3A to 3C are diagrams for explaining a method for measuring the space inside the shoe according to an embodiment of the present disclosure; Fig. 3A, the fixing portion 110 may include a first fixing portion 111, a second fixing portion 112, a third fixing portion 113, and a fourth fixing portion (not shown) have. The first fixing part 111 and the second fixing part 112 may be separated from the main body of the measuring device 100 and move in the upward direction of the shoe. The third fixing part 113 and the fourth fixing part Can be separated from the body of the measuring apparatus 100 and can move in the left and right directions of the shoe.

At this time, the third fixing part 113 and the fourth fixing part (not shown) can move at the same speed. Therefore, even when the measuring apparatus 100 is located at an arbitrary position in the shoe, it can be positioned at the center of the shoe after the stop of the movement of the fixing unit 110. [ However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and it goes without saying that the third fixing part 113 and the fourth fixing part (not shown) can be moved in various ways.

While the present invention has been described in connection with the case where the fixing portion is composed of four fixing portions, the present invention is not limited thereto. That is, the fixing part 110 may further include a fixing part for moving the shoe in the vertical direction. It is needless to say that the fixing parts may be composed of two or more.

Figs. 3B and 3C are views illustrating a process of fixing the measuring device to the shoe when the measuring device is inserted into the shoe, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Fig.

As shown in FIG. 3B, the fixing portion 110 can be removed from the body of the measuring apparatus 100 and moved until it abuts the surface of the shoe. 3B shows only the case where the first fixing part 111 and the second fixing part 112 are in contact with the upper part of the inner space of the shoe. However, the third fixing part 113 and the fourth fixing part are also formed in the same manner It is possible to move until it abuts the left and right sides of the space.

At this time, as shown in FIG. 3B, the fixing portion 110 can stop when it comes into contact with the inner space of the shoe. In this case, the measuring apparatus 100 can measure the inner space of the shoe without changing the shape.

However, as shown in FIG. 3C, the fixing portion 110 may expand the inner space of the shoe. That is, FIG. 3C shows that the inner space of the shoe is expanded as compared with FIG. 3B. At this time, the fixed portion 110 can continue to move even after abutting against the inner surface of the shoe by a predetermined user command, thereby expanding the space inside the shoe. At this time, the degree of expansion of the shoe can be variously determined depending on the type, material, and strength of the shoe.

On the other hand, the fixing portion 110 may include a pressure sensor. When the fixing portion 110 is in contact with the inner space of the shoe, the pressure sensor can measure the pressure applied to the fixing portion 110. If the measured pressure value is greater than the predetermined value, the processor 140 can control to stop the fixing portion 110. [

On the other hand, the fixing portion 110 can expand the space inside the shoe. That is, the processor 140 can determine the degree of expansion and deformation of the shoe using the inner space of the shoe extended by the fixing unit 110. [

Specifically, the processor 140 may measure a degree of deformation of the inner space of the shoe by increasing a preset pressure value. Specifically, when the pressure value is increased, the space inside the shoe can be increased. At this time, even if the inner space of the shoe is expanded by using the same pressure value, the degree of expansion may vary depending on the material and design of the shoe. For example, shoes with a high elasticity can be expanded more than those with a low elasticity. Accordingly, the processor 140 can determine the degree of expansion of the shoe at the same pressure value to obtain information on the material of the shoe.

In this case, the preset pressure value can be determined in consideration of the wearer's feeling of wearing and the shape of the deformation of the user. That is, the processor 140 may control the pressure sensor to have a different pressure value according to the user's foot region. For example, the processor 140 may determine that the shoe area corresponding to the partial area of the user's footstep A (the definition of each point will be described later with reference to Figs. 6A to 7B) is the area having the largest degree of deformation. At this time, the processor 140 may set the pressure value of the pressure sensor measuring the portion A of the footstep point of the shoe to a value higher than the pressure value of the pressure sensor measuring the other portion.

Meanwhile, the processor 140 may provide the wearer with information on the wearer considering the material and design of the shoe. At this time, the material information of the shoe can be judged based on the elasticity of the shoe. Specifically, the processor 140 may determine the degree of deformation of the shoe based on the shoe inner space information and the extended shoe inner space information. For example, the processor 140 can determine the elasticity of the shoe by comparing the shoe inner space information with the expanded shoe inner space information. In the case of a highly elastic shoe, the processor 140 may determine that the shoe is a shoe that is comfortable to wear and has good activity. Similarly, in the case of a shoe having a small elasticity, the processor 140 may determine that the shoe is a shoe that is poor in wearing comfort and inactivity.

Also, the design of the shoe can be judged by using the spatial information of the shoe. Specifically, the processor 140 may determine the design of the measured shoe based on the data on the internal spatial information of the shoe of a specific design.

FIGS. 4A and 4B are diagrams for explaining a method of measuring the internal space using a sensor according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. FIG.

4A, the sensor 120 includes left sensors 121-1, 121-2, 121-3, right sensors 122-1, 122-2, 122-3, upper sensors 123-1, 123-2, 123-3 ), A front sensor 124 and a rear sensor 125. [ However, the present invention is not limited to such a configuration, and various sensors may be added or omitted as needed. For example, the sensor 120 may include a sensor for measuring the left-up direction or the right-up direction to more accurately measure the space inside the shoe.

As described above, when the measuring apparatus 100 is fixed to the shoe by the fixing unit 110, the processor 140 can control the sensor 120 to obtain the sensing data value. At this time, the sensor 120 may sense various data including information on a specific point. The data for sensing the specific point and the sensor 120 will be described later with reference to FIG. 6 and FIG.

4B is an exemplary view illustrating that the sensor 120 senses the space inside the shoe when the measuring apparatus 100 is inserted into the shoe.

As shown in FIG. 4B, the front sensor 124 and the rear sensor 125 can sense the front and rear of the shoe internal space, respectively. 4B, only the front sensor 124 and the rear sensor 125 sense the space inside the shoe. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the left sensors 121-1, 121-2, 121-3 and the right sensors 122-1, 122 -2,122-3) It is also possible to sense the space inside the shoe.

Also, the memory 220 may store three-dimensional information on the space inside the shoe using the data on the distance traveled by the fixing unit 110 and the sensing data obtained by the sensor 120. [

Processor 230 may control the overall operation of electronic device 200. Specifically, the processor 230 may control the communication unit 210 to receive the shoe inner space information from the measurement apparatus 100. [

In addition, the processor 230 may process the received in-shoe spatial information to generate three-dimensional information. At this time, the three-dimensional information may include a plurality of specific points.

In addition, the processor 230 may control the communication unit 210 to receive information on the user's feet from the user terminal device 300. [ The processor 230 compares the three-dimensional information on the inner space of the shoe stored in the memory 220 and the information on the user's foot and provides the matching information of the shoe to the user on the basis of the comparison result .

In this case, when the three-dimensional information about the inner space of the shoe is matched with the information about the user's foot, the processor 230 transmits a message informing that the user is fit to wear the shoe to the user terminal 300 210 can be controlled.

If the three-dimensional information on the inner space of the shoe is not matched with the information about the user's foot, the processor 230 transmits the recommendation information for the shoes matching the user's foot to the user terminal device 300, (210).

It should be noted that the information on the specific point is not limited to the above-mentioned names and locations. For example, the heel width points 620-8, 620-10, 620-11, 620-12, 620-13, and 620-14 shown in FIG. 6B are subdivided into inner arc point 620-8, inner inner point 620-11, It may be divided into subdivisions such as a point 620-13, a side arch point 620-10, a nearest point 620-12 and a far side copy point 620-14, and various specific points may be added Of course, can be omitted.

Figs. 7A and 7B are illustrations for explaining specific points according to another embodiment of the present disclosure; Fig.

7A is an exemplary view showing a sole of a user. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 7A, the specific point is the outer toe point 710-1, the toe point 710-2, the big toe point 710-3, the big toe outer point 710-4, The foot point 710-5, the center point 710-6, the foot inner point 710-7, the heel width A point 710-8, the heel width B point 710-9, and the heel point 710 -10).

The above-described specific points can be sensed by the sensor 120. The center points 710-6 and 720-4 are straight lines connecting the foot point 710-5 and the foot point 710-7 and the straight line connecting the foot point 710-2 and the heel point 710-10, May intersect at a point where a straight line connecting the two ends intersects.

On the other hand, some of the specific points may be determined by a combination of other specific points. In addition, information on the length or angle of a specific portion may be determined by a combination of the specific points described above. That is, specific three-dimensional information can be obtained through a combination of specific points. Using the obtained various information, the processor 230 can display the three-dimensional space inside the shoe more accurately. Table 1 below shows various information obtained by combining specific points.

Point A Branch B Justice Heel point Toe point Foot / Foot Centerline Heel width A Heel width B Heel width Heel width B Foot point Lateral lateral aspect Heel width B Inner point of foot Bubo-medial side Foot point Inner point of foot Foot width Foot width Foot length Center of gravity Inner point of foot Big toe outer point Medial inferior Foot point Cubic toe point Lateral forefoot Inner point of foot Center line of foot Big toe point Center of gravity Foot point Outside width Center of gravity Inner point of foot Inner width Center of gravity Vertical axis height Stem Point B 50% of foot length Vertical axis height Foot point A Foot point A Stem Point B Foot-slope Heel point Heel width point Hindfoot Heel width point node Body part Center of gravity Foot endpoint Forefoot

7A, the straight line connecting the heel point 710-10 and the toe point 710-2 may indicate the foot length. At this time, the toe point can be generally a toe point, but is not limited thereto. At this time, a straight line connecting the heel point 710-10 and the toe point 710-2 may be referred to as a foot center line.

The straight line connecting the heel width A point (710-8) and the heel width B point (710-9) can indicate the heel width. On the other hand, the heel width points 710-8, 710-9 may be the ends of positions corresponding to 16% of the foot length from the heel. However, the present invention is not limited to such a numerical value. In general, a heel width point may be located at a protruding portion of the user's foot shape.

The center of gravity 710-6 may be a point at which a straight line indicating the length of the foot and a straight line indicating the width of the foot intersect each other. Specifically, the center of gravity 710-6 includes a straight line connecting the heel point 710-10 and the toe point 710-2, a heel width A point 710-8 and a heel width B point 710-9 It may be the intersection of the connecting straight lines.

On the other hand, the user's feet may be divided into forefoot, midfoot, and hindfoot. At this time, the forefoot can be from the toe point 710-8 to the center point 710-6, the mid-point from the center point 710-6 to the heel width points 710-8, 710-9, Can be from heel width points 710-8, 710-9 to heel point 710-10.

More precisely, the forefoot can be divided into the anterior forefoot and lateral forefoot. The anterior forefoot can be from the in-foot point (710-7) to the big toe outer point (710-4), and the forefoot lateral can be from the foot point (710-5) to the toes outer point (710-1) have. At this time, the information of the inner space of the shoe can be shown in more detail by using the length and angle of the inside of the forefoot and the outside of the forefoot.

On the other hand, the big toe point 710-3 can be obtained by using a straight line (second straight line) passing through the foot center line (first straight line) and the foot inner point 710-7 and parallel to the center line of the foot. The point where the straight line (third straight line) parallel to the foot center line located between the first straight line and the second straight line meets the big toe may be the big toe point 710-3. In this case, the distance from the third straight line to the first straight line may be the same as the distance from the third straight line to the second straight line, but it is not limited thereto, and it is needless to say that the third straight line may be positioned at various positions.

On the other hand, the width from the foot central point 710-6 to the foot point 710-5 is referred to as the outer width, and the width from the foot central point 710-6 to the inner foot point 710-7 is referred to as the inner width have.

On the other hand, as shown in Fig. 7B, the toe point B 810-2 may be positioned in the vertical direction from the center point 720-4. In addition, the point A 720-1 may be positioned in a vertical direction at a point of 50% of the foot length, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

At this time, the foot slope can be obtained using the foot point A 720-1 and the foot point B 720-2. In other words. The angle at which the instep of the foot is inclined and the length of the foot can be obtained using the toe point A 720-1 and the toe point B 720-2.

7A, the forefoot point 720-3 to the foot center point 720-4 is referred to as the forefoot portion, and the center point 720-4 to the heel width point 720-5 is referred to as the middle portion and the heel width point 720-5) to the toe point 720-6 may be referred to as a hind part.

6A to 7B, information on the combination of various specific points and specific points has been described. The processor 230 may generate three-dimensional information on the space inside the shoe through information on the combination of the specific point and the specific point described above. Further, it goes without saying that the information on the combination of the specific point and the specific point may be used not only to generate three-dimensional information on the space inside the shoe but also to generate three-dimensional information on the foot of the user.

However, Figs. 6A to 7B are merely examples of the present disclosure, but are not limited thereto. Therefore, it is needless to say that various specific points can be determined based on the anatomical information of the foot.

8A and 8B are diagrams for explaining a method of acquiring three-dimensional information about a user's foot using a user terminal device.

The user may wear the foot-shaped measurement shoe 810 to measure his / her foot shape. At this time, the measurement shoe 810 may have a cross mark indicating the center of the foot, and may be configured as a grid for size and position information determination.

The user can measure his / her foot using the user terminal device 300. For example, the user terminal 300 can measure the information of an accurate user's foot considering the anatomical information using a real-time 3D reconstruction technique, using moving picture shooting. However, the present invention is not limited to such a method, and it is needless to say that three-dimensional information on the user's feet can be obtained by various methods. For example, the user terminal device 300 may photograph a foot using a camera in various angles and acquire information about a user's foot using the camera.

As shown in FIG. 8B, the measured result is displayed on the user terminal 300 so that the user can look at his / her foot information. The measured result may also be transmitted to the external electronic device 200 to determine whether a particular shoe and its foot are matched.

Also, as shown in FIGS. 9A to 9C, the user can specifically look at information about his or her feet. For example, as shown in FIG. 9A, the user can confirm the shape and information of his / her foot by dividing the shape of his / her foot by the left foot and the right foot, and enlarge the shape of his / her foot as shown in FIG. 9B . At this time, the shape of the foot may be a three-dimensional image, and the user can freely confirm the upper and lower parts, the left and right sides, and the front and back parts of the foot as needed.

In addition, the user can confirm specific information about his / her foot. As shown in FIG. 9C, the user can confirm information about his / her foot height. At this time, the information that can be identified by the user may be information regarding the specific point and the combination of the specific points described in Figs. 6A to 7B.

9A to 9C, the user terminal device 300 can receive information about the shoe from the external electronic device 200. [0050] At this time, the information on the shoe may be information on the space inside the shoe. The user terminal device 300 can display the footwear or footwear internal space information and the user can confirm the information about the footwear in the same way as the footwear or footwear internal information in Fig. 9A to Fig. 9C. That is, the user can check the information on the right shoe and the left shoe, the information on the shoe enlargement / reduction, and the detailed information (foot length, etc.) of the shoe.

10 is a flow chart for explaining a shoe measurement system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure;

First, the measuring device 100 may be inserted into the shoe (S1010). When the user command is received through the communication unit 130, the processor 140 can move the fixing unit 110. [ The fixing unit 110 may move until reaching the inner wall of the shoe so as to fix the measuring apparatus 100 to the shoe and further expand the space inside the shoe (S1020).

When the measuring apparatus 100 is fixed to the shoe by the fixing unit 110, the processor 140 can measure data on the distance the fixing unit has moved, and when the sensor 120 detects the sensing data (S1030). At this time, the sensing data measured by the sensor 120 may include information about a specific point.

The processor 140 may control the communication unit 130 to transmit the measured data to the external electronic device 200 (S1040). The processor 230 of the external electronic device 200 controls the communication unit 210 to receive data received from the measurement apparatus 100 and the processor 230 can store the received data in the memory 220. [

The external electronic device 200 can generate three-dimensional information on the space inside the shoe using the received data (S1050). At this time, the three-dimensional information can be generated using information about a specific point and a combination of specific points.

When the processor 230 of the external electronic device 200 controls the communication unit 210 to receive information on the user's foot from the user terminal device 300, The three-dimensional information on the space can be compared to provide shoes matching and other services (S 1060).

Specifically, the user terminal device 300 can transmit information about the foot of the user terminal 300, and further can transmit information about the shoe desired by the user. The processor 230 may obtain three-dimensional information about the inner space of the shoe requested by the user from the memory 220 and compare the three-dimensional information with the user's foot.

At this time, if the three-dimensional information about the inner space of the shoe is matched with the foot of the user, the processor 230 transmits a message to the user terminal 300 to inform the user that the shoe selected by the user is suitable for the user, Can be controlled.

If the three-dimensional information on the inner space of the shoe does not match the user's foot, the processor 230 transmits a message to the user terminal 300 indicating that the shoe selected by the user is not suitable for the user. (210). In addition, the processor 230 may control the communication unit 210 to transmit various information for providing convenience to the user.

For example, the processor 230 may recommend what shoes are most comfortable for the user's feet. In this case, the recommendation criteria may be any one of the kinds of shoes (sneakers, shoes, walkers), the brand of the shoes, or the material of the shoes, but it is also possible to recommend shoes suitable for the user according to various criteria .

In addition, the processor 230 may provide information on which portion of the shoe selected by the user does not match the foot of the user. For example, the processor 230 may indicate that the length of the front and back of the shoe may be appropriate, but the height of the foot or the foot may not match.

In the above-described embodiment, the electronic device 100 capable of measuring the space inside the shoe and the control method thereof have been described, but the present invention is not limited thereto. That is, it goes without saying that the electronic device 100 and the control method according to the present disclosure can be used for measuring the internal space of the deformable object. For example, the electronic device 100 may measure and provide to the user the internal space and the degree of deformation of the garment or bag.

In one embodiment, as shown in FIG. 12, the electronic device 100 may have the same shape as a mannequin. The electronic device 100 for measuring the inner space of a garment can also be applied to the technical idea of the present disclosure.

12, the fixing unit 110 and the sensor 120 are provided in two arms 1110-1 to 1110-4, four bodies 1120-1 to 1120-4 in the torso, and four in the body 1130 -1 to 1130-4 may be disposed. However, it is needless to say that the fixing portion 110 and the sensor 120 may be disposed at various positions. For example, the fixation portion 110 and the sensor 120 may be disposed at the joint portion of a person having many movements.

Specifically, in the case of a bottom case, the processor 140 may measure elasticity and deformation information of a region corresponding to a thigh portion of the garment so that a user with a thick thigh can select the garment, and provide the measured value to the user. Alternatively, in the case of a topsheet, stretchability and deformation information of a region corresponding to a chest circumference, a waist circumference, a forearm circumference, or an underarm portion of the clothes can be measured and provided to the user. Through the above-described method, the wearer can grasp the wear comfort information about the clothes to be purchased.

In yet another embodiment, the electronic device 100 may measure bag interior spatial information. The processor 140 may determine the bag interior space information and the modified bag interior space information. Using the measured result, the user can determine the size of the bag to be purchased and can confirm the maximum storage space using the elasticity information.
