NFTs for real products can be issued by applying a hash function, a computer encryption technology, to unique identification information, 3D modeling data, and detailed information to extract a unique hash value and record it in the NFT.

The real product ownership registration unit 140 may record the NFT generated by the real product NFT issuing unit 130 on the blockchain network 30 and authenticate or prove ownership of the actual product using the NFT. The real product ownership registration unit 140 records the NFT issued by the real product NFT issuing unit 130 on the blockchain network 30 so that the ownership of the actual product generated by the NFT can be authenticated or proved. In addition, by registering NFT information on a separate website server (not shown), ownership of the actual product may be authenticated or proved later. NFT authentication or proof in the real product ownership registration unit 140 uses a hash function used for NFT issuance. This hash function is a non-reversible one-way function, and only one hash value can be extracted from one original object. Therefore, authenticity can be verified by backtracking the unique hash value recorded in the NFT and checking the image and information about the actual product connected to the hash value.

The virtual reality product information registration unit 200 registers unique product information of a real product in a virtual reality system, and can apply a 3D modeled virtual product of a real product to be usable within the virtual reality system.

To this end, as shown in FIG. 3, the virtual reality product information registration unit 200 uses at least one of the virtual product object information registration unit 210, the virtual product object information application unit 220, and the virtual product reality reflection unit 230. can include

The virtual product object information registration unit 210 registers the NFT, unique identification information, detailed information, and 3D modeling data provided from the real world product information providing unit 100 as virtual product object information of the virtual reality system, The system makes the virtual product available to the user as an object. In addition, by registering the NFT, unique identification information, detailed information, and 3D modeling data as virtual product object information of the virtual reality system, ownership of virtual goods allowed in the virtual reality system can also be issued.

On the other hand, the virtual product object information registration unit 210, through the virtual product ownership transfer processing unit 340 to be described later, the purchaser (the person who transferred the ownership of the virtual product) 1 and the third party (the transferee of ownership of the virtual product) (i) When a transaction of ownership of a virtual product is made, the virtual product object information for the virtual product can be re-registered in the name of the third party (2) to whom the ownership of the virtual product has been transferred, and a more detailed description of this will be provided later. .

The virtual product object information application unit 220 may apply the 3D modeling data registered through the virtual product object information registration unit 210 to be usable in the virtual reality system as a virtual product. That is, based on 3D modeling data, virtual goods can be displayed in virtual reality and applied to virtual reality so that users can use them. For example, if the virtual product is an air conditioner, the user can turn on/off the power of the air conditioner and manipulate the temperature in virtual reality. In addition, if the virtual product is a companion animal, virtual activities such as feeding the 3D modeled companion animal or playing with the companion animal can be performed in virtual reality. In addition, if the virtual product is a plant, virtual activities such as repotting and watering the plant can be performed in virtual reality.

The virtual product reality reflection unit 230, based on the 3D modeling data and detailed information, the external product of the 3D modeling data according to the flow of time, usage and activity history, damage, repair, appearance change and lifespan information in the virtual reality system and internal properties can be modified and changed. In other words, if the virtual product is an electronic product, the 3D modeling data of the virtual product can be implemented and expressed in the virtual world as in the real world, such as aging, failure, and operation characteristics due to the passage of time or the characteristics of the brand or model. External and internal characteristics can be modified or changed. For example, if a real product is a piece of furniture such as a bed, continuous strong pressure on the bed can cause it to break or the spring to sit down. This is applied to virtual products in virtual reality as well, so that the form of damage is visually expressed. 3D modeling data can be modified and changed. In the case of a virtual product, since it is not a real object, its physical characteristics or external shape do not change over time or long-term use, but if the external appearance expressed in virtual reality or internal characteristics pre-programmed are modified, In other words, it allows users to feel a sense of realism or realism more like reality for virtual goods in virtual reality.

The virtual product ownership transaction intermediary unit 300 is responsible for managing virtual goods between a purchaser (person who transfers ownership of virtual goods) 1 and a third party (person who transfers ownership of virtual goods) within the virtual reality system. Can broker ownership transactions.

To this end, as shown in FIG. 4 , the virtual goods ownership transaction intermediary unit 300 includes a virtual goods ownership sale request unit 310, a virtual goods ownership certification request unit 320, a virtual goods ownership sales promotion activity unit 330, It may include at least one of a virtual goods ownership transfer processing unit 340 and a virtual goods sales value determination and adjustment unit 350 .

The virtual goods ownership sale request unit 310 may receive a request for ownership sale of the virtual goods together with virtual goods object information and virtual goods sales price information from a buyer (person who has transferred ownership of the virtual goods) 1. . Ownership of a virtual product is a right allowed only within virtual reality, and is different from ownership of a real product. When registered in the system, it can only be issued and exist within virtual reality. When the buyer 1 who owns the virtual goods wants to sell the ownership, the virtual goods ownership sale request unit 310 can check and provide market price information based on various information registered on the virtual goods. Accordingly, the purchaser 1 may request ownership sale of the virtual goods by inputting appropriate sales price information based on the corresponding market price information.

The virtual product ownership authentication request unit 320 may request ownership authentication from the real product ownership registration unit 140 using the NFT included in the virtual product object information. As described above, since the hash function is a one-way function that is inversely reversible, and only one hash value can be extracted from one original object, the real product ownership registration unit 140 reverses the unique hash value recorded in the NFT. Authenticity can be verified by tracking and checking the image and information about the actual product linked to the hash value.

The virtual goods ownership sales promotion activity unit 330, when ownership verification is completed through the virtual goods ownership verification request unit 320 (ie, when ownership of the virtual goods is verified as the purchaser 1), the virtual goods object information It is possible to provide public relations service within the virtual reality system using the information and selling price information. For example, promotional content including images and information of virtual products may be propagated and promoted through means such as TV, radio, digital signage, electric signboards, and electronic flyers in virtual reality.

The virtual product ownership transfer processing unit 340 receives a request for ownership purchase for virtual goods from a third party 2 within the virtual reality system, informs the purchaser 1, and informs the purchaser 1 and the third party 2 ) can proceed with the process of transferring ownership of virtual goods between The procedure for transferring the ownership of virtual goods is largely divided into the third party (2), when the ownership purchase cost is paid, the remaining amount excluding the commission from the purchase cost is delivered to the purchaser (1), and then the purchaser (1) registers the The process of changing the ownership of virtual goods to the name of a third party (2) can be carried out. At this time, the virtual goods ownership transfer processing unit 340, when the ownership transaction of the virtual goods between the buyer (the person who transferred the ownership of the virtual goods) 1 and the third party (the person who transferred the ownership of the virtual goods) is completed, the virtual goods Through the object information registration unit 210, the virtual product object information for the virtual product can be re-registered in the name of the third party (2) who has received the transfer of ownership of the virtual product. In this case, the virtual product object information application unit 220 ) may change the virtual goods whose ownership has been transferred so that the third party (2), not the purchaser (1), can arrange them in a desired virtual space so that the third party (2) can use them.

The virtual product sales value determination and adjustment unit 350 receives registered image data and characteristic change information of the real product from the purchaser 1 in order to improve the product value of the virtual product when the real product is a living thing. , Image data is input to a predefined deep learning model, and the similarity with the characteristic change information is judged as an output value, and the selling price information can be readjusted if the similarity between the corresponding output value and the characteristic change information is greater than a preset reference value.

For example, if the actual product is a creature such as a companion animal or companion plant, after registration in virtual reality, if the creature has cute and pretty behaviors or habits unlike other companion animals in real life, the commercial value of this It can be evaluated higher, and if it grows in a more unique and pretty form unlike other companion plants in reality, its commercial value can also be evaluated higher. To this end, the purchaser (1) provides image data for the actual product, that is, a recorded image of features that can be proved in order to receive a high commercial value, and characteristic change information appearing in the image, that is, the creature is of the previous virtual product. After registration, information on what good characteristics have been brought can be registered by inputting or selecting text. The registered information may be input as an input value to a predefined deep learning model, and a result value may be output by determining whether the type of the actual product and the characteristic change information match each other or not. In other words, if the dog has a unique ability, the deep learning model determines whether the video that can confirm the ability and the description of the ability match each other, and the result value of how much they match can be numerically output, When the output value, which is a numerical value, satisfies a condition that is equal to or greater than a predetermined reference value, the selling price information (or market price) of the corresponding actual product can be adjusted higher. At this time, the upward rate may be adjusted in proportion to how much the output value exceeds the reference value.

In this way, after registering the actual product in virtual reality, if the purchaser (1) determines that the commercial value of the actual product has been increased, registers the data to prove it, verifies it through a deep learning model, and through the verification process If the factors that increase the product value are recognized, the product value of virtual goods (products that model real products), that is, sales price information, can be set higher than the market price within virtual reality.

What has been described above is only one embodiment for implementing a B2B system for applying the actual product according to the present invention to the metaverse virtual space, and the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and in the claims below As claimed, anyone skilled in the art in the field to which the present invention pertains without departing from the gist of the present invention will say that the technical spirit of the present invention exists to the extent that various changes can be made.
