When the current location is set to recognize cosmetics when the current location is the house, the controller 117 may recognize the cosmetics by considering that the cosmetics recognition command is received whenever the current location is detected as the house. Locations, such as home and work, are merely exemplary and are not limited thereto.

According to another embodiment, the control unit 117 may receive a cosmetic recognition command based on the date and time according to the schedule information. For example, if a schedule such as a meeting is registered on April 18, 2018 at 7 pm on April 18, 2018, the controller 117 considers that the cosmetic recognition command has been received at 6 am on April 18, 2018 and recognizes the cosmetics. can

Next, Figure 4 is an exemplary view showing a method of receiving a cosmetic recognition command through the input unit according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figures 5 to 6 are cosmetics based on the current location according to an embodiment of the present invention. It is an exemplary view showing a method of recognizing, and FIG. 7 is an exemplary view showing a method of recognizing cosmetics based on a set recognition range according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 4 , the display unit 109 may display a cosmetic recognition input screen. The cosmetic recognition input screen may include at least one cosmetic recognition setting item 410 , 420 , 430 , a recognition icon 31 and a cancel icon 32 .

The cosmetics recognition setting items 410 , 420 , and 430 may include a location-based cosmetics recognition item 410 , a set distance-based cosmetics recognition item 420 , and a barcode-based cosmetics recognition item 430 .

After selecting any one cosmetic recognition setting item 410 , 420 , 430 , the controller 117 may receive a selection command of the recognition icon 31 . The controller 117 may receive a cosmetic recognition command as the recognition icon 31 is selected. When receiving the cosmetics recognition command, the controller 117 may recognize cosmetics based on the selected cosmetics recognition setting item.

When the location-based cosmetic recognition item 410 is selected, the controller 117 may recognize cosmetics based on the current location.

Specifically, the controller 117 detects the current location, sets the recognition range of cosmetics to the first range when the current location is the first location to recognize the cosmetics, and recognizes the cosmetics when the current location is the second location is set as the second range to recognize cosmetics.

The first position and the second position may be preset. For example, the first location may be a location set as a home, and the second location may be a location set as an office.

The first range and the second range may be preset. For example, the first range may be within the radius D1, and the second range may be within the radius D2.

As shown in FIG. 5 , when the current location is a house, the controller 117 may recognize cosmetics within a radius D1 to recognize the first to sixth cosmetics C1 to C6 .

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 6 , when the current location is an office, the control unit 117 recognizes cosmetics within a radius of D2 to recognize the 10th to 11th cosmetics (C10, C11), and the first to ninth cosmetics ( C1 to C9) and the twelfth to fifteenth cosmetics (C12 to C15) may not be recognized.

In this case, the controller 117 has the advantage of being able to recognize cosmetics by setting the recognition range according to the characteristics of the current location. That is, if the current location is home, most of the cosmetics located at home are likely to be the user's cosmetics, and the recognition range is set wide. By narrowing the bar recognition range, it is possible to increase the possibility of recognizing only the cosmetics the user has.

On the other hand, although the case where the location-based cosmetic recognition item 410 is selected is taken as an example, FIGS. 5 to 6 may be applied even when a cosmetic recognition command is received when the current location is a preset location.

Again, referring to FIG. 4 , the controller 117 may recognize cosmetics based on the set distance when the item for recognizing cosmetics based on the set distance 420 is selected. The set distance-based cosmetic recognition item 420 includes an item 421 for recognizing cosmetics within a first radius (eg, 3 m), and an item for recognizing cosmetics within a second radius (eg, 1 m). 422 and an item 422 for recognizing cosmetics within a third radius (eg, 50 cm). However, the set radius and the number of items are merely exemplary and are not limited thereto.

When the set distance-based cosmetics recognition item 420 is selected, the controller 117 may recognize cosmetics existing within a set recognition range. For example, as shown in FIG. 7 , when the set recognition range is within the radius D3, the control unit 117 recognizes the cosmetics within the radius D3, and the third cosmetics C3, the sixth cosmetics C6, Recognizes the twelfth to thirteenth cosmetics (C12, C13), the first to second cosmetics (C1, C2), the fourth to fifth cosmetics (C4, C5), the seventh to eleventh cosmetics (C7 to C11), and 14 to 15 Cosmetics (C14 to C15) may not be recognized.

In this case, there is an advantage in that the recognition range is set according to the user's preference, and cosmetics can be recognized only within the set recognition range.

As described above, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the controller 117 may set the recognition range of cosmetics and recognize only cosmetics existing within the recognition range.

The control unit 117 may adjust the frequency of the RF signal transmitted by the RFID reader unit 113 to recognize the cosmetics according to the recognition range of the cosmetics.

Specifically, the controller 117 transmits an RF signal having a first frequency when the recognition range of cosmetics is set to the first range to recognize the cosmetics, and has a second frequency when the recognition range of cosmetics is set to the second range The cosmetics may be recognized by transmitting an RF signal, and when the recognition range of the cosmetics is set to the third range, the cosmetics may be recognized by transmitting an RF signal having a third frequency. At this time, the first range is within a radius of 500 cm, the first frequency is 125 kHz, the second range is within a radius of 1 m, the second frequency is 2.45 GHz, the third range is within a radius of 50 m, and the third frequency is 433 MHz may be, but it is not necessary to be limited thereto because it is merely an example for convenience of description.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the RFID reader unit 113 is provided with a plurality of antennas having different frequencies, so that the frequency of the RF signal can be adjusted. Alternatively, since the RFID reader unit 113 includes a plurality of RFID readers having different frequencies, the frequency of the RF signal may be adjusted by driving any one RFID reader.

The RFID tag 11 may also include a plurality of antennas having different frequencies or include a plurality of RFID tags.

The controller 117 may change the recognition range by adjusting the frequency of the RF signal in this way. However, since this is also only an example, the recognition range may be changed in other ways.

Referring again to FIG. 4 , when the barcode-based cosmetic recognition item 430 is selected, the controller 117 drives the barcode reader 115 to recognize cosmetics. The barcode reader 115 may recognize the cosmetic by reading the barcode attached to the cosmetic.

In this case, there is an advantage that the user can manually recognize the cosmetics by locating the barcode of the cosmetic product to the barcode reader unit 115 close to it.

The control unit 117 may receive cosmetic information as cosmetics are recognized in step S309. That is, the control unit 117 may control the RFID reader unit 113 to transmit an RF signal to the RFID tag 11 , and receive cosmetic information from the RF tag 11 to recognize cosmetics.

8 is an exemplary view illustrating cosmetic information received from an RF tag according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The RFID reader unit 113 may receive cosmetic information from the RFID tag 11 , and the cosmetic information may be information related to the cosmetic 10 to which the RFID tag 11 is attached. The cosmetic information may include at least some or all of a name, an image, a category, a manufacturing date, a recognition date of recognizing the RFID tag, and attributes.

Again, FIG. 3 will be described.

The controller 117 may transmit the recognized cosmetic information to the server 1 (S311), and receive detailed information of the recognized cosmetic from the server 1 (S313).

The control unit 117 may receive detailed information and latest information related to the cosmetics recognized through steps S311 and S313.

In some embodiments, steps S311 and S313 may be omitted.

The controller 117 may create a cosmetic list composed of recognized cosmetics (S315).

The controller 117 may generate a cosmetic list based on the cosmetic information.

The cosmetics list is a list indicating recognized cosmetics, and may be a list in which at least one cosmetics recognized through the RFID reader unit 113 is classified according to a cosmetics category. The cosmetics list may further include cosmetics recognized through the barcode reader unit 115 . Also, the cosmetic list may further include cosmetics manually input by the user through the input unit 103 .

For example, the cosmetics category includes a large category that separates basic cosmetics from color cosmetics, a small category that separates skin, essence, eye cream, lotion, day cream, and sun cream among basic cosmetics, and base, foundation, and eyebrows among color cosmetics. , eyeliner, lip, and blush may include a subcategory category. That is, the cosmetic list is, for each recognized cosmetic, any one of skin, essence, eye cream, lotion, day cream, and sun cream among basic cosmetics, or base, foundation, eyebrow, eyeliner, lip and blusher among color cosmetics. It may be a list displayed for each category by determining whether it belongs to the category.

The display unit 109 may display the generated cosmetic list (S317).

The control unit 117 may determine whether a command for setting a view option of the cosmetic list has been received (S319), and upon receiving the command for setting a view option, may change the cosmetic list according to the command for setting a view option (S321).
