The present invention relates to a method of registering a product, and more particularly to a verification method and system that can be run on-line.

Traditionally, consumers who want to complete a product registration or verification can do so through a variety of procedures or document authentication. For example, if an applicant wants to apply for product verification from the original factory, it is generally required to follow the following procedures: fill out the "Product Verification Application", select the applicable product verification system, and attach relevant basic documents to a service. The window handles. The above service window accepts the application product verification login, and it is necessary to check whether the submitted documents are consistent, and the matching person accepts the application, and vice versa. After the above service window is accepted, the acceptance number must be given. If the above application meets the requirements of the conformity assessment procedure of the applicable product verification system, the original factory issues a product verification certificate.

However, the above product verification system is not capable of performing on-line anti-counterfeiting verification, and the related basic documents may be forged, thus jeopardizing the rights of the original applicant.

In addition, if the consumer applies for registration of a mobile phone as an example, it is necessary to connect his mobile phone to the original server and upload a photo containing the device serial number screen. The original server can determine the success of the login according to the device serial number.

Although this method can be used for online verification, only the device serial number is used as the verification code. Single, it may still be forged by a third party; in addition, this method does not bind the consumer's personal information, and the product source is poorly identified.

A database configuration diagram; FIG. 4 is an embodiment of an online verification method according to the present invention on a display; and FIG. 5 is an embodiment of an online verification method according to the present invention on a display; An embodiment of an online verification method in accordance with the present invention is presented on a display; Figure 7 is an embodiment of an online verification method in accordance with the present invention on a display; and Figure 8 is an online verification in accordance with the present invention on a display An embodiment of the method.

Please refer to Figure 1. 1 is an embodiment of an online verification system 100 in accordance with the present invention. The online verification system 100 is used to verify the product serial number 102A of a product and the sealed verification barcode 102B. The online verification system 100 includes a product serial number 102A, a sealed one of the verification barcodes 102B, an electronic device 101, and a server 111 coupled to the electronic device 101. The electronic device 101 includes a display 103, a scanner 105, a signal transceiving unit 107, and a processor 101A. The display 103, the scanner 105, and the signal transceiving unit 107 are all electrically connected to the processor 101A. The server 111 includes a database 112. The product has a product serial number 102A and a verification barcode 102B corresponding to product serial number 102A.

The electronic device 101 described above is one of a personal computer, a tablet computer, a mobile phone or a smart mobile device, or an electronic device known to those skilled in the art to provide the latest processor technology.

The scanner 105 is an input device for reading a barcode. Scanning the scanning head scans the image of the line into the decoding module. After the decoding module is operated, the representative value is output, and the output can be transmitted to the keyboard or other device through the interface transmission.

In another example, a consumer can utilize the scanner built into the smart mobile device and click on the software on the smart mobile device to read and parse the barcode.

In other embodiments of the online verification system of the present invention, the processor 101A may be additionally coupled to a wired or wireless network for transmitting data.

In this embodiment, a certain consumer can verify the product serial number 102A and the sealed verification barcode 102B attached to the purchased merchandise package through the online verification system 100.

The verification barcode 102B may be previously sealed using physical or chemical methods to form a sealed verification barcode. The most common way is to use the silver powder and silver paint in the advertising paint to mask the information in the verification barcode 102B to avoid the intentional or unintentional prying of the third party.

The verification barcode 102B may be encoded by a technique of one of a two-dimensional barcode or a QR Code.

The two-dimensional bar code refers to a bar code that expands the function on the basis of the one-dimensional bar code to be readable in another dimension, and uses the black and white rectangular pattern to represent the binary data, and the information contained therein can be obtained after being scanned. The width of the one-dimensional bar code records the data, and the length does not record the data. The length and width of the 2D barcode are recorded. The 2D barcode has a "positioning point" and a "fault tolerance mechanism" that are not available in the one-dimensional barcode. Therefore, even if the entire barcode is not recognized or the barcode is slightly damaged, the information carried on the barcode can be correctly restored.

Quick Response Code (QR Code) is a kind of two-dimensional barcode, and its content can be decoded quickly. QR Code uses four standardized encoding modes, such as numbers, alphanumerics, bytes, and Chinese characters to store data. QR Code can store more data than a one-dimensional bar code, and there is no need to linearly align the scanner when scanning like a one-dimensional bar code. The user does not need to align, and the data can still be read correctly regardless of scanning at any angle.

The processor 101A in the embodiment is electrically connected to the signal transceiving unit 107, the display 103, and the scanner 105. The processor 101A in the electronic device 101 can use the processor 101A to scan the exposed verification barcode 102B, so that the electronic device 101 can be connected to a specific website where a certain server 111 is located. The barcode data is verified, and the signal transceiver unit 107 is correspondingly sent a first verification signal.

In another example, product serial number 102A and verification barcode can be further integrated. 102B. That is, the verification barcode 102B can simultaneously conceal information of both the product serial number and the verification barcode data. Therefore, the consumer can use the processor 101A in the electronic device 101, so that the scanner 105 scans only the exposed verification barcode 102B, so that the electronic device 101 can be connected to a specific website where a certain server 111 is located, and The product serial number and the verification barcode data can be generated at the same time, and correspondingly, the signal transceiver unit 107 sends a first verification signal.

In some cases, after the consumer scans the exposed verification barcode 102B by using the scanner 105, the electronic device 101 is connected to a specific website where the server 111 is located, and the consumer needs to serialize the product and correspondingly. At least one of the verification barcode data of the verification barcode 102B is input to the electronic device 101.

Please refer to Fig. 2, which shows two types of labels according to the present invention: they are mounted on a certain product, and carry a label of the product serial number and a sealed verification barcode carrying the verification password. In this embodiment, the product serial number MCFQ0001 has been directly loaded on the label, and the consumer additionally needs to scrape the silver paint to expose the sealed verification barcode and the verification serial number P8522130 .

In some cases, the consumer can manually input the product serial number 102A and the verification barcode data corresponding to the verification barcode 102B to the electronic device 101 without using the scanner 105.

Returning to Fig. 1, the server 111 operates in an environment in which the electronic device 101 is connected to the server 111. The manner of connecting the electronic device 101 to the server 111 can be additionally connected to a wired or wireless network for transmitting data.

The server 111 is electrically connected to the processor 101A. The database 112 is stored in the memory of the server 111, and is further configured to include a plurality of secondary databases.

The server 111 further includes a memory 116 and a processor 305 coupled to the memory 116. The memory 116 stores the database 112. The database 112 includes a product serial number database 301, a verification password database 302, a feedback serial number database 303, and a return field database 304 for the consumer to return information. The feedback sequence number can be used as product verification information provided to the consumer, which can include a guarantee number, a bonus point, an e-coupon or other serial number that can be used commercially.

Each of the secondary databases is independent of each other but maintains bidirectional access with the processor 305. This will ensure that your data is safe.

The server 111 generates a random code according to the first verification signal, and transmits the random code to the signal transceiver unit 107 for the display 103 to display the random code, wherein when the display 103 displays the random code, The server 111 receives a verification code corresponding to the random code from the consumer.

In one example, an image verification mechanism can be used to perform an alignment of the random code and the verification code in a web page. That is, through the technology of the session (Session) for verification, and the verification image is generated by the program, and at the same time, the text (random code) displayed on the picture is written into the pre-defined negotiation value, and the original web form is sent out. When the comparison value is compared with the text (verification code) entered by the consumer on the webpage, the verification procedure of the image can be completed.

In the example of FIG. 1, the server 111 generates a second verification signal according to the verification code, and transmits the second verification signal to the signal transceiver unit 107, so that the display 103 displays a backhaul field. When the display 103 displays the return field, the electronic device 101 receives an input data corresponding to the return field from the consumer, and the input data may include purchase information related to the consumer, such as using Name, mobile number, email address and address, etc. Wait.

The server 111 evaluates the input data from the electronic device 101 and determines whether the format of the input data is correct to make a determination result. When the result of the determination is affirmative, the server 111 decides to cause the display 103 to display a feedback number.
