It will be possible to maintain the position of the pair. That is, the relative position between the compound marker information acquisition device (the information presentation device 20) and the antenna 12A when acquiring the information of the noncontact ID tag 12 by the display of the symbol as described above is accurate. It is possible to guide or guide the operator so that the positional relationship can be expected and more appropriate.

- a line 13 indicating the position of the antenna 12 A is disposed on the surface of the composite marker 10.
- the fourth embodiment if the position of the antenna 12 A of the composite marker 10 is not known in advance, there is a possibility that the information of the non-contact ID tag 12 may not be read out reliably.
- the camera of the image input unit 21 By turning the camera of the image input unit 21 so that the line 13 indicating the antenna position is at the screen center, reading of information from the non-contact ID tag 12 becomes more reliable.
- the display indicating the position of the antenna may be an image such as a two-dimensional bar code other than that limited to the line 13.
- the symbol obtained by coding information it has at least three or more optically distinguishable feature points, the three-dimensional arrangement of the feature points is known, and the feature points are
- the image marker photographed so as to include it has been described as an example of an optical marker which can specify the relative position and posture with the camera that photographed the image. Anything may be used as long as it functions as a marker that can specify the three-dimensional position and orientation while applying force.
- any contactless ID tag may be used.
- area information, area ID, HD information and the like are stored in the storage unit 12C of the non-contact ID tag 12, and the symbol or design of the marker 11 of the composite marker 10
- the information of 11B may also be stored.
- the position of the marker 11 may be stored without storing the position and orientation information at which the marker is arranged in the marker information storage unit 25. And you will be able to estimate the attitude.
- the compound marker 10 since the compound marker 10 transmits the arrangement information of the marker 11, compound markers having the same marker can be distinguished. Therefore, apparently, the types of markers used can be reduced, and false recognition can be reduced.
- the necessary circuits are formed as an IC chip, it is possible to make the composite marker thin.
- the arrangement for obtaining the information from the composite marker can estimate the arrangement of the marker 11 without the known information.
- the information stored in the storage unit 12C includes arrangement information that can specify the relative arrangement of the optical feature points of the marker 11, the arrangement information can be obtained by the apparatus for acquiring information from the composite marker.
- the relative arrangement of the optical feature points of the marker 11 can be easily identified.
- the arrangement information includes the position in the real world coordinate system, the arrangement of the marker 11 can be detected directly in an apparatus for acquiring information from the composite marker.
- the arrangement information stored in the storage unit 12 C includes an ID that can specify the arrangement area based on known information
- an apparatus for acquiring information from the composite marker can be provided.
- the arrangement area of the composite marker can be easily identified by the ID and the known information.
- the entire area in which the composite marker is arranged is divided into a plurality of divided area forces, it is possible to use more than one marker 11 having the same feature point if it is not used in the area. It does not. In this case, if a plurality of optically distinguishable composite markers are disposed in the sectioned area in which the composite marker is disposed, the composite marker having the marker 11 having the same feature point in the section is obtained. Because there is no, you can distinguish reliably.
- the above storage unit 12 If the arrangement information stored in c is different for each of the divided areas, the divided areas can be recognized by the arrangement information.
- the composite marker 10 is configured to transmit the identification information of the marker 11 that can identify which one of the composite markers having the marker 11 having the same feature point. Therefore, since it becomes possible to distinguish between composite markers having the same marker 11, it is possible to apparently reduce the types of markers to be used and to reduce false recognition.
- the apparatus for acquiring information from the compound marker can specify the compound marker and directly arrange the arrangement of the compound marker. It can be detected.
- the specific information may include an ID that can identify the arrangement area based on known information.
- the composite marker can be easily identified by the ID and the known information, and the arrangement of the composite marker can be detected.
- the marker 11 can be identified by the above-mentioned specific information, there is no problem even if a plurality of markers 11 having the same feature point are used. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the types of apparent markers.
- the composite marker fixes the antenna 12 A at a predetermined position relative to the marker 11. Therefore, since the position of the antenna 12A is determined with respect to the marker 11, the information acquisition device can be easily set at a predetermined position with respect to the marker 11, and the information of the marker 11 and the noncontact ID tag 12 is Reading can be performed more reliably.
- the antenna 12 A is disposed in the marker area of the marker 11, if the information acquisition device is set so that the marker 11 can be photographed, the antenna 12 A power is transmitted reliably. Can receive information.
- the antenna 12A is disposed with the force within the marker area of the marker 11 shifted, information can be read only by a specific person who knows the position of the antenna 12A.
- the information acquisition device can be set at a position where information can be read reliably.
- the information acquisition apparatus since it is possible to judge that the marker 11 can be read only by the image power obtained by photographing the marker 11, the information acquisition apparatus performs a useless reading operation even if it is present at a position where it can not read. It can prevent going.
- the RF ID reading unit 23 performs information acquisition based on the image captured by the imaging input unit 21 having the predetermined imaging range 21 A, the marker power 11 of the composite marker 10 can be obtained at an appropriate timing.
- the present invention can provide a compound marker information acquisition device capable of reading information of a symbol (a symbol representing a symbol) and information of a contactless ID tag 12.
- the imaging range 21 A if a part of the information acquisition range 23 A (non-contact ID tag reading range) exists in the imaging range 21 A, information can be acquired from the non-contact ID tag 12. In this case, if all of the information acquisition range 23A exists in the imaging range 21A, the information can be reliably acquired from the non-contact ID tag 12.
- the marker detection unit 22 can easily determine the timing of information acquisition by the RFID reading unit 23 by detecting that the marker 11 is in the imaging range 21A.
- the RFID reading unit 23 processes the image captured by the imaging input unit 21 and performs information acquisition when it is estimated that the marker has reached a predetermined position and posture. Therefore, the timing when information can be acquired can be determined with certainty.
- the predetermined position and posture are generally the position and posture when the marker is directly faced.
- the predetermined position and posture are the position and posture when the antenna 12A of the non-contact ID tag 12 is faced directly.
- the marker detection unit 22 causes the display unit 29 to display the position and the Z or the direction so as to be the predetermined position and posture, the relative positional relationship between the information acquisition device and the marker is It is possible to plan or guide the operator so as to obtain a more appropriate positional relationship in which accurate information acquisition can be expected.
