Description

名刺印刷装置、記録媒体およびコンピュータプログラムBusiness card printing apparatus, recording medium, and computer program
 本発明は、判別不能化した顔写真を名刺に印刷する技術、判別不能化した顔写真を判読可能とするためのソフトウェア技術に関する。 The present invention relates to a technique for printing a face photograph that has become indistinguishable on a business card, and a software technique for making the face photograph that has become indistinguishable legible.
 名刺は、主にビジネスに用いられる。最近では、学生、リタイア後のシニア世代でも、名刺を使う。
 プライベートな趣味において、同じ趣味を持つグループのメンバーの交流に使われたりもする。
Business cards are mainly used for business. Recently, students and seniors after retirement use business cards.
In private hobbies, it is also used to interact with members of groups with the same hobbies.
 名刺が普及する背景には、名刺の作成やその印刷が、パーソナルユースのパソコンやプリンタを用いることでも可能となってきたからであろう。
 スマートフォンやタブレット型端末が普及し、名刺に掲載された情報を赤外線通信などによって交換するといった風景も、頻繁に見られるようになった。 しかし、ほどよいサイズの紙に印刷された物理的な名刺の手軽さを超えられずにいる。
The reason that business cards have become widespread is that business cards can be created and printed using personal computers and printers.
Smartphones and tablet-type terminals have become widespread, and landscapes such as exchanging information on business cards by infrared communication have come to be seen frequently. However, it is impossible to exceed the ease of physical business cards printed on moderately sized paper.
 多くの名刺交換をしても、また時間が経っても思い出して貰えるように、との配慮から、顔写真を一部に入れる名刺も少なくない。顔写真という画像データは、記憶を呼び起こすのに優れているからであろう。
 特許文献1には、名刺データを交換する際の画像データを取得するための電子名刺交換システムが開示されている。
There are many business cards that include a face photo as part of the consideration that you can remember many cards and exchange them over time. This is because the image data of a face photo is excellent for recalling memories.
Patent Document 1 discloses an electronic business card exchange system for acquiring image data when exchanging business card data.
 限られたスペースである名刺の紙面に、多くの情報を全て記載することは困難である。その問題を解決するため、バーコード(主に二次元バーコード)を印刷しておく、ということも普及しつつある。 すなわち、そのバーコードを携帯情報端末の光学リーダ(付属のカメラおよび予めインストールされたソフトウェア)で読み取るとインターネットへアクセスし、該当ページに掲載された情報を閲覧できるようにする技術である。 It is difficult to write all the information on the paper of a business card, which is a limited space. In order to solve the problem, it is also becoming popular to print barcodes (mainly two-dimensional barcodes). That is, when the barcode is read by an optical reader (attached camera and preinstalled software) of the portable information terminal, the Internet is accessed and information posted on the corresponding page can be browsed.
 特許文献2には、携帯情報端末を用いて二次元バーコードを読み取ってアクセスした先の情報を取得して管理するための情報処理システムが開示されている。 Patent Document 2 discloses an information processing system for acquiring and managing information accessed by reading a two-dimensional barcode using a portable information terminal.

 近年、個人情報については、法律の制定と相まって、個人でも法人でも慎重な取り扱いが求められるようになった。
 たとえば、顔写真付きの名刺が机の上に放置されていたとすると、その机の前を通った人は、その名刺の氏名と顔写真をのぞき込むことができてしまう。
 顔写真の付いた名刺の便利さと、個人情報管理とを両立させられる技術が潜在的に求められていると考えられるが、そのような技術は提供されていない。
In recent years, with the enactment of laws, personal information has been required to be handled carefully by both individuals and corporations.
For example, if a business card with a face photo is left on the desk, a person who passes by the desk can look into the name and face photo of the business card.
Although it is considered that there is a potential need for a technology that can balance the convenience of business cards with facial photographs and personal information management, such technology is not provided.
 本発明が解決しようとする課題は、現在普及しているハードウェアやインフラストラクチャーを用いて、顔写真の付いた名刺の便利さと、個人情報管理とを両立させる技術を提供することにある。 The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a technology that achieves both the convenience of a business card with a face photograph and the management of personal information using currently popular hardware and infrastructure.

 以下、本発明を図面に基づいて更に説明する。ここで用いる図面は、図1から図17である。 Hereinafter, the present invention will be further described with reference to the drawings. The drawings used here are FIGS. 1 to 17.
  (図1)
 図1では、印刷会社と、その印刷会社に顔写真加工済み写真付きの名刺作成を依頼する依頼者Aと、顔写真を加工するためのアプリケーションプログラムを提供するアプリ提供者(以下、「アプリ提供者」と略記する)との関係を示している。
(Figure 1)
In FIG. 1, a printing company, a client A who requests the printing company to create a business card with a face photograph processed photograph, and an application provider that provides an application program for processing a face photograph (hereinafter “application provision”). Abbreviated as “person”).
 依頼者Aは、名刺に印刷したい名刺用文字データと、加工して印刷してもらう対象となる顔写真データとを、印刷会社へ名刺元データ送信手段にて送信する。 一般的には、依頼者Aに係るパーソナルコンピュータへ名刺用文字データおよび顔写真データを格納し、通信回線を介して印刷会社へ名刺元データ送信手段にて送信する。送信されたデータは、印刷会社に係るコンピュータにおける名刺元データ受信手段が受信する。
 なお、印刷会社の窓口にて、デジタル化されていない名刺用文字データおよび顔写真データを受け付ける方法もあるが、印刷会社としては、デジタル化されていない名刺用文字データおよび顔写真データをデジタルデータに加工し、その後の作業を進めることとなる。
The client A transmits the business card character data to be printed on the business card and the face photo data to be processed and printed to the printing company using the business card original data transmission means. In general, the business card character data and face photo data are stored in the personal computer associated with the client A, and are transmitted to the printing company via the communication line by the business card source data transmission means. The transmitted data is received by the business card source data receiving means in the computer of the printing company.
Although there is a method of accepting non-digitized business card character data and face photo data at a printing company's window, the printing company does not digitize business card character data and face photo data as digital data. Then, the subsequent work will proceed.
 印刷会社に係るサーバは、名刺に印刷したい名刺用文字データ、および加工して印刷してもらう対象となる顔写真データを名刺元データ受信手段が受信したら、顔写真データを、アプリ提供者に係るサーバへ顔写真データ送信手段が送信する。
 送信された顔写真データは、アプリ提供者に係るサーバの顔写真データ受信手段が受信する。そして、受信した顔写真データは、顔写真データ加工手段が加工する。この加工にて具体的にどうするのかについては、後述する。
When the business card source data receiving means receives the business card character data to be printed on the business card and the face photo data to be processed and printed, the server related to the printing company receives the face photo data from the application provider. The face photo data transmission means transmits to the server.
The transmitted face photograph data is received by the face photograph data receiving means of the server related to the application provider. The received face photo data is processed by the face photo data processing means. Details of what will be done in this processing will be described later.
 アプリ提供者に係るサーバにおける加工済みデータ送信手段から送信された加工済みデータは、印刷会社のサーバにおける加工済みデータ受信手段が受信する。そして、予め受け取っていた名刺用文字データとともに印刷用データとし、名刺印刷手段にて名刺を印刷する。 印刷された名刺は物理的な存在なので、依頼者Aは、郵送業者などを介して受け取ることとなる。
 なお、依頼者Aがデスクトップパブリッシングにて自分自身で名刺を印刷できる場合、依頼者と印刷会社とを一体で考えることができる。この場合、名刺元データ送信手段と名刺元データ受信手段とが省略されることとなる(図10に示す実施形態を参照のこと)。
The processed data transmitted from the processed data transmitting means in the server related to the application provider is received by the processed data receiving means in the server of the printing company. The business card is printed by the business card character data received in advance, and the business card printing means prints the business card. Since the printed business card is physically present, the client A receives it through a mailer or the like.
When client A can print a business card by desktop publishing himself, the client and the printing company can be considered together. In this case, the business card source data transmitting unit and the business card source data receiving unit are omitted (see the embodiment shown in FIG. 10).
  (図2)
 図2もまた、印刷会社と、その印刷会社に顔写真加工済み写真付きの名刺作成を依頼する依頼者Aと、顔写真を加工するためのアプリケーションプログラム(以下、「写真加工用アプリ」と記す)を提供するアプリ提供者との関係である。図1に示した実施形態と異なるのは、アプリ提供者が自らのサーバに置いて加工済みデータを作成するのではなく、印刷会社において加工済みデータを作成できるように、写真加工用アプリを印刷会社へ提供している点である。
(Figure 2)
FIG. 2 also shows a printing company, a client A who requests the printing company to create a business card with a face photograph processed photograph, and an application program for processing a face photograph (hereinafter referred to as “photo processing application”). ) Is a relationship with the app provider that provides. The embodiment shown in FIG. 1 is different from the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 in that the application provider prints the photo processing application so that the printing company can create the processed data instead of creating the processed data on its own server. It is a point to offer to the company.
 なおこの場合も、依頼者Aがデスクトップパブリッシングにて自分自身で名刺を印刷できるのであれば、依頼者と印刷会社とを一体で考えることができ、名刺元データ送信手段と名刺元データ受信手段とが省略される(図9に示す実施形態を参照のこと)。
 アプリ提供者によって提供される写真加工用アプリがどのような機能をなすか、については、図1における顔写真データ加工手段と同様であり、後述する。
 なお、アプリ提供者は、印刷された名刺における顔写真加工済みデータを復元するための復元アプリを、依頼者Aやその依頼者Aから名刺を受け取った第三者に対して提供する。この点については、図3に基づいて説明する。
In this case as well, if the client A can print the business card by desktop publishing himself, the client and the printing company can be considered together, and the business card source data transmitting unit, the business card source data receiving unit, Is omitted (see the embodiment shown in FIG. 9).
The functions of the photo processing application provided by the application provider are the same as the face photo data processing means in FIG. 1, and will be described later.
The application provider provides a restoration application for restoring the face photograph processed data in the printed business card to the client A or a third party who has received the business card from the client A. This will be described with reference to FIG.
  (図3)
 図3は、依頼者B(依頼者Aから名刺を受け取った第三者)が、自らに係るカメラ付き携帯情報端末(スマートフォンやタブレットコンピュータ)にて、名刺に印刷された顔写真加工済みデータを復元する様子を示している。
(Figure 3)
FIG. 3 shows that the client B (the third party who received the business card from the client A) uses the camera-equipped personal digital assistant (smartphone or tablet computer) to display the face photograph processed data printed on the business card. It shows how to restore.
 依頼者Bは、カメラ付き携帯情報端末(の復元アプリ要請送信手段)にて、復元アプリをダウンロードしたい旨の要請を送信する。
 アプリ提供者に係るサーバ(の復元アプリ要請受信手段)は、そのダウンロード要請を受信する。そして、サーバの復元アプリ送信手段が当該カメラ付き携帯情報端末へ復元アプリを送信する。送信された復元アプリケーションは、当該カメラ付き携帯情報端末(の復元アプリ受信手段)が受信する。
The requester B transmits a request to download the restoration application from the camera-equipped mobile information terminal (its restoration application request transmission means).
The server related to the application provider (restored application request receiving means) receives the download request. Then, the restoration application transmission unit of the server transmits the restoration application to the portable information terminal with a camera. The transmitted restoration application is received by the camera-equipped mobile information terminal (its restoration application receiving means).
 その復元アプリを起動可能となった当該カメラ付き携帯情報端末は、復元アプリを起動させ、そのカメラにて顔写真加工済みデータをかざす。すると、カメラ付き携帯情報端末における出力画面には、加工済みデータを復元アプリによって加工前の状態へ並び替えた顔写真復元済みデータ(復元された元の顔写真)が映し出される。
 なお、スマートフォンのオペレーティングシステム(OS)は複数存在するので、復元アプリもOSに合わせた種類(最低でも代表的なOSに適合するもの)を用意する必要がある。
The camera-equipped mobile information terminal that can start the restoration application activates the restoration application and holds the face photograph processed data over the camera. Then, the face picture restored data (the restored original face picture) obtained by rearranging the processed data to the state before the processing by the restoration application is displayed on the output screen of the camera-equipped portable information terminal.
Note that since there are a plurality of operating systems (OS) of smartphones, it is necessary to prepare a type of restoration application suitable for the OS (at least compatible with a typical OS).
  (図4)
 図4を用いて、図1の「顔写真データ加工手段」および図2の「写真加工用アプリ」の機能について説明する。
 図4(A)は顔写真データ、図4(B)は図4(A)における画像を4×4の16コマに分割して並べ替えたモデルである。
 図4(C)は具体的な顔写真データ、図4(D)は図4(C)の顔写真データを15×15の225コマに分解した上で並べ替えた加工済みデータ、図4(E)は図4(D)へイニシャルを表示した加工済みデータ、をそれぞれ示す。
(Fig. 4)
The functions of “face photo data processing means” in FIG. 1 and “photo processing app” in FIG. 2 will be described with reference to FIG.
4A is a face photograph data, and FIG. 4B is a model in which the image in FIG. 4A is divided into 4 × 4 16 frames and rearranged.
4C is specific face photograph data, FIG. 4D is processed data obtained by disassembling the face photograph data of FIG. 4C into 15 × 15 225 frames, and rearranging FIG. E) shows processed data with initials displayed in FIG. 4D.
 図4(A)および(C)に示すように、顔写真データには、顔の背景となる「非主要領域」が存在する(「非主要領域」が存在しない画像データの場合には顔写真データとして不適切と言える)。
 この「非主要領域」を用いて、依頼者Aのイニシャルなどを形成し、図4(E)のような加工済みデータを形成する。イニシャルを入れることで、名刺用文字データと顔写真データとの不一致を防ぐ、といった使い方ができる。
As shown in FIGS. 4A and 4C, the face photo data includes a “non-major region” as a background of the face (in the case of image data in which no “non-major region” exists) This is inappropriate as data).
Using this “non-main area”, the initial of the client A is formed, and processed data as shown in FIG. 4E is formed. By inserting the initial, it can be used to prevent mismatch between the business card character data and the face photo data.
 なお、「顔写真データ加工手段」および図2の「写真加工用アプリ」の機能としては、顔写真データの全てを分割することとして説明したが、一部であってもよい。たとえば、顔認識ソフトを用いて、顔の中の「目」およびその周囲のみを複数に分割して並べ替えることでも、本発明の目的は達成でき、効果も得られる。 The functions of the “face photo data processing means” and the “photo processing application” in FIG. 2 have been described as dividing all of the face photo data, but may be a part. For example, the object of the present invention can be achieved and an effect can be obtained by dividing and rearranging only the “eyes” in the face and the periphery thereof by using face recognition software.
  (図5)
 図5は、図4に示したバリエーションであり、図5(B)が大きく異なる。すなわち、図5(B)では図5(A)に示す顔写真データの非主要領域を拡大する。つまり、オリジナルの画像には存在しない部位が増える。その増えた部位を用いてイニシャルの表示部分を形成するのである。
(Fig. 5)
FIG. 5 is a variation shown in FIG. 4 and is significantly different from FIG. That is, in FIG. 5B, the non-main area of the face photograph data shown in FIG. That is, there are more parts that do not exist in the original image. The initial display portion is formed using the increased portion.
  (図6)
 図6は、図3の下半分にて示した概念図を、具体的な例として示したものである。
 図6(A)は、復元アプリを起動可能となった当該カメラ付き携帯情報端末において、そのカメラにて顔写真加工済みデータをかざした状態である。
 図6(B)は、復元アプリを起動させ、カメラ付き携帯情報端末における出力画面に顔写真復元済みデータ(復元された元の顔写真)を映し出した状態である。
(Fig. 6)
FIG. 6 shows the conceptual diagram shown in the lower half of FIG. 3 as a specific example.
FIG. 6A shows a state in which the face photograph processed data is held by the camera in the portable information terminal with a camera that can start the restoration application.
FIG. 6B shows a state in which the restoration application is activated and the face photo restored data (the restored original face photo) is displayed on the output screen of the camera-equipped portable information terminal.
  (図7)
 顔写真データ加工手段またはアプリ提供者が提供する写真加工用アプリがどのような機能をなすか、について、図7に基づいて説明する。
 まず、図7(A)に示すように、加工前の画像データの一部または全部を分割する。この図7では、画像データの全部を3×3に9分割しているが、顔写真の場合、目の周辺部分のみといった一部だけを分割することとしてもよい。
(Fig. 7)
The function of the photo processing data processing means or the photo processing application provided by the application provider will be described with reference to FIG.
First, as shown in FIG. 7A, part or all of the image data before processing is divided. In FIG. 7, the entire image data is divided into 9 parts of 3 × 3. However, in the case of a face photograph, only a part such as the peripheral part of the eyes may be divided.
 図7(B)に示すように、分割した際にできる各コマに対して隣り合うコマとの間に重複領域を設定する。
 図7(C)に示したのは、重複領域を増やした状態で各コマを、元通りの順序に並べている。重複領域が存在することで、サイズがやや大きくなる。
As shown in FIG. 7B, an overlapping area is set between adjacent frames for each frame that is formed when divided.
In FIG. 7C, the frames are arranged in the original order in the state where the overlapping area is increased. Due to the presence of overlapping areas, the size is slightly increased.
 図7(D)では、図7(C)の状態で図7(B)と同じ3×3に9分割する。
 図7(E)は、図7(D)の状態で、すなわち重複領域とともに、各コマの並びを並べ替えている。この状態が「加工済みデータ」となるのである。
In FIG. 7 (D), it is divided into 9 × 3 × 3 as in FIG. 7 (B) in the state of FIG. 7 (C).
FIG. 7E shows the state of FIG. 7D, that is, the arrangement of the frames is rearranged together with the overlapping area. This state is “processed data”.
 前記の「重複領域」とは、顔写真加工済みデータを復元するための携帯情報端末のカメラ(入力装置)や画面(出力装置)のパフォーマンスが高くない場合などにおいて、復元の際に生じる不具合を予め防止するために設定している。
 図7(F)に示すのは、復元アプリを起動させたカメラ付き携帯情報端末における出力画面に元の配置に並び替えて重複領域を削除し、復元された元の顔写真を映し出させた状態である。
 なお、重複領域ともに、一番外側に位置していた部分(いわゆる糊代)を削除するので、(A)~(F)の中では、(F)のサイズが一番小さくなる。
The “overlapping area” refers to a problem that occurs during restoration when the performance of the camera (input device) or screen (output device) of the portable information terminal for restoring the face photograph processed data is not high. It is set to prevent it in advance.
FIG. 7F shows a state in which the restored original face photograph is displayed by rearranging the original arrangement on the output screen of the camera-equipped portable information terminal in which the restoration application is started, deleting the overlapping area It is.
It should be noted that since the outermost portion (so-called glue margin) is deleted in both overlapping regions, the size of (F) is the smallest among (A) to (F).
  (図8)
 図8では、図7に示した「重複領域の設定」をしなかった場合である。この場合には、図8(A)に示すように画像を分割し、図8(B)に示すように分割された各コマを並べ替えていることで、「加工済みデータ」を形成する。
 この図8(B)に示す「加工済みデータ」を、カメラ(入力装置)や画面(出力装置)のパフォーマンスが高くない携帯情報端末にて復元した場合、図8(C)に示すように、分割時の境目付近が綺麗に復元できないことがある。
(Fig. 8)
FIG. 8 shows a case where “overlapping area setting” shown in FIG. 7 is not performed. In this case, “processed data” is formed by dividing the image as shown in FIG. 8A and rearranging the divided frames as shown in FIG. 8B.
When the “processed data” shown in FIG. 8B is restored on a portable information terminal whose performance of the camera (input device) or screen (output device) is not high, as shown in FIG. The borderline at the time of division may not be restored cleanly.
 図示を省略するが、顔写真データ加工手段またはアプリ提供者が提供する写真加工用アプリは、その顔写真データにおける少なくとも顔部分の一部または全部を複数に分割するとともに、その分割した部分を分割前と異ならせるように回転させて加工済みデータとするとしてもよい。
 分割の形状は、前述してきた実施形態のように正方形であれば時計回りに90度、180度、270度である。
Although not shown, the photo processing application provided by the face photo data processing means or the app provider divides at least part or all of the face part in the face photo data into a plurality of parts and divides the divided part. The processed data may be rotated to be different from the previous data.
The shape of the division is 90 degrees, 180 degrees, and 270 degrees clockwise if it is a square as in the embodiment described above.
 分割の形状は、前述してきた実施形態では正方形のみを採用したが、正六角形や円を採用してもよい。
 正六角形の場合には、60度、120度、180度、240度、300度であり、円の場合には、任意の角度である。
As the shape of the division, only the square is adopted in the above-described embodiment, but a regular hexagon or a circle may be adopted.
In the case of a regular hexagon, the angles are 60 degrees, 120 degrees, 180 degrees, 240 degrees, and 300 degrees, and in the case of a circle, the angles are arbitrary angles.
 なお、図示および詳細な説明を省略しているが、分割した各コマを、並べ替えた上で回転させることとしてもよい。 Although illustration and detailed description are omitted, the divided frames may be rotated after being rearranged.
  (図9)
 図9は、デスクトップパブリッシング(DTP)が可能な依頼者Cが、アプリ提供者から、写真加工用アプリの提供を受け、自分で名刺を印刷する場合を概念的に示している。
 この実施形態の場合には、写真加工用アプリを、所定の契約や対価の支払いによって、依頼者Cがアプリ提供者から写真加工用アプリをダウンロードして用いることとなる。
 なお、依頼者と印刷会社とを一体ではなく別の主体として考える場合については、図2に示す実施形態となる。
(Fig. 9)
FIG. 9 conceptually shows a case where client C capable of desktop publishing (DTP) receives a photo processing application from an application provider and prints a business card by himself.
In the case of this embodiment, the client C downloads the photo processing app from the app provider and uses the photo processing app by a predetermined contract or payment of a fee.
Note that the case where the client and the printing company are considered as separate entities instead of one is the embodiment shown in FIG.
  (図10)
 図10もまた、デスクトップパブリッシング(DTP)が可能な依頼者Dに関する実施形態である。図9との相違点は、アプリ提供者から写真加工用アプリの提供を受けるのではなく、アプリ提供者へ顔写真加工を依頼する点である。
 なお、依頼者と印刷会社とを一体ではなく別の主体として考える場合については、図1に示す実施形態となる。
(Fig. 10)
FIG. 10 is also an embodiment relating to the client D capable of desktop publishing (DTP). The difference from FIG. 9 is that the application provider receives a photo processing application from the application provider, but requests the application provider to perform face photo processing.
Note that the case where the client and the printing company are considered as different entities instead of one is the embodiment shown in FIG.
 図示を省略するが、印刷に係る名刺の紙面の一部には、二次元バーコードを印刷することとしてもよい。 その二次元バーコードは、インターネット接続可能なカメラ付きの情報端末にて読み取ることで前記顔写真データ加工手段が加工した加工済みデータを、元通りに復元するためのアプリケーションプログラムをダウンロード可能なサイトへアクセスするためのデータとするのである。 Although not shown, a two-dimensional barcode may be printed on a part of the paper surface of the business card for printing. The two-dimensional barcode is read by an information terminal equipped with a camera that can be connected to the Internet to a site where an application program for restoring the processed data processed by the face photo data processing means to the original state can be downloaded. It is data for access.
 二次元バーコードを印刷することとする「印刷に係る名刺の紙面の一部」とは、両面印刷の名刺の場合における裏面であることが想定される。名刺として必須の情報ではないからである。
 なお、スマートフォンでの利用を前提とした場合、複数種類のスマートフォン用オペレーティングシステム(OS)が存在するので、代表的な二種類の二次元バーコードが印刷されるのが一般的であろう。
The “part of the paper surface of the business card for printing” that is to be printed with the two-dimensional barcode is assumed to be the back surface in the case of a business card for double-sided printing. This is because it is not essential information as a business card.
Note that if there are a plurality of types of smartphone operating systems (OS) on the premise of use with smartphones, it is common that two types of representative two-dimensional barcodes are printed.
 このように、裏面に二次元バーコードが印刷された名刺は、インターネット接続可能なカメラ付きの情報端末にて、その二次元バーコードを読み取る。その二次元バーコードは、復元アプリをダウンロード可能なサイトへアクセスするためのURLとなっているので、その情報端末は、当該サイトへアクセスすることとなる。そこで、情報端末の操作者が当該情報端末へ復元アプリをダウンロードさせる。復元アプリを起動させた当該情報端末は、顔写真データ加工手段が加工した加工済みデータを、元通りの顔写真に復元することが可能となる。 As described above, a business card with a two-dimensional barcode printed on the back side is read by an information terminal with a camera that can be connected to the Internet. Since the two-dimensional bar code is a URL for accessing a site where the restoration application can be downloaded, the information terminal accesses the site. Therefore, the operator of the information terminal downloads the restoration application to the information terminal. The information terminal that has activated the restoration application can restore the processed data processed by the face photo data processing means to the original face photo.
 加工済みデータを復元して顔写真を見たいと考える者は、インターネット接続可能なカメラ付きの情報端末にて上記の操作を行わなければならない。この操作を面倒だからやりたくない、という者からは元の顔写真を見ることができないので、顔写真という個人情報が簡易に(緩やかに)保護されることとなる。 * Those who want to restore the processed data and see a face photo must perform the above operations on an information terminal with a camera that can connect to the Internet. A person who does not want to do this operation because he / she does not want to do can not see the original face photo, so personal information of the face photo is protected (slowly) easily.
 上記してきた名刺印刷装置および名刺印刷のためのコンピュータプログラムを用いて作成した名刺は、業種を問わず、営業職には有益である。名刺を用いた情報伝達と、個人情報の簡易な保護とを両立できる技術だからである。 Business cards created using the above-described business card printing apparatus and computer program for business card printing are useful for sales staff regardless of the type of business. This is because it is a technology that can achieve both information transmission using business cards and simple protection of personal information.
  (図11)
 図11では、第五の実施形態を概念的に示している。ここでは、顔写真データ加工手段に関するバリエーションを示す。
 依頼者Dが、自らに係る通信端末(顔写真データ送信手段)を介して、名刺元データにおける顔写真データを、アプリケーション提供者に係る端末(またはサーバ)へ送信する。
(Fig. 11)
FIG. 11 conceptually shows the fifth embodiment. Here, the variation regarding the face photograph data processing means is shown.
The client D transmits the face photo data in the business card original data to the terminal (or server) related to the application provider via the communication terminal (face photo data transmission means) related to the client D.
 アプリケーション提供者に係る端末は、顔写真データ受信手段が顔写真データを受信し、顔写真データ加工手段へ送る。
 まず、管理データ付与手段が、受信した顔写真データに対して管理データを付与する。そして、変換コードテーブルを用いて、その管理データをコード変換し、管理データ変換画像データを作成する。
 顔写真データは、その管理データ変換画像データを加えることで合成データとする。このときの合成データは、写真データにおける背景部分などの「非主要領域」(図4参照)の一部と置き換えるのが合理的である(図15では、写真の下端中央に配置した状態を図示している)。
In the terminal relating to the application provider, the face photograph data receiving means receives the face photograph data and sends it to the face photograph data processing means.
First, the management data adding means adds management data to the received face photo data. Then, using the conversion code table, the management data is subjected to code conversion to generate management data converted image data.
The face photograph data is made composite data by adding the management data converted image data. It is reasonable to replace the composite data at this time with a part of the “non-major region” (see FIG. 4) such as the background portion in the photo data (FIG. 15 shows a state in which it is arranged at the center of the lower end of the photo. Shown).
 前記の合成データは、シャッフル手段によってシャッフルされ(図7参照)、加工済みデータとなる。この加工済みデータは、加工済みデータ送信手段を介して、依頼者Dへ送信される。
 加工済みデータを受信した依頼者Dは、この加工済みデータを顔写真として用いることで名刺を印刷する。
The composite data is shuffled by the shuffle means (see FIG. 7) and becomes processed data. This processed data is transmitted to the requester D via the processed data transmission means.
The client D who has received the processed data prints a business card by using the processed data as a face photograph.
 この実施形態によって加工済みデータを用いた名刺は、変換コードテーブルを用いて、管理することができる。
 たとえば、ここで加工済みデータを用いた名刺が、どの変換コードテーブルによって変換されたものなのかを管理したり、所定期間を経過した名刺に対して顔写真への再現ができないようにしたり、といった使い方が可能となる。
 また、 管理データを設定することで、所定期間を経過した名刺については、顔写真や携帯電話番号などを再現できなくする、といった管理も可能となる。 その結果、古い名刺を用いた悪用を未然に防止できるなど、一定の効果が見込まれる。
A business card using processed data according to this embodiment can be managed using a conversion code table.
For example, it is possible to manage which conversion code table the business card using the processed data is converted here, or to make it impossible to reproduce a face photo for a business card that has passed a predetermined period. It can be used.
In addition, by setting management data, it is possible to manage such that face cards and mobile phone numbers cannot be reproduced for business cards that have passed a predetermined period. As a result, certain effects can be expected, such as preventing misuse using old business cards.
  (図12)
 図12は、図11を用いた説明において使った「変換コードテーブル」の一例を示したものである。
 この図12に示した変換コードテーブルは、受信した顔写真データに対して管理のために付与した管理番号を二つの色彩の組み合わせへ変換するためのテーブルである。
(Fig. 12)
FIG. 12 shows an example of the “conversion code table” used in the description with reference to FIG.
The conversion code table shown in FIG. 12 is a table for converting the management number assigned to the received face photograph data for management into a combination of two colors.
 たとえば、RGP(色の三原色、赤、緑、青に対して、それぞれを0~255の数字にてそれらの色を表す)の全てが85以上であって、RGPの中で最小値となる値の1.3倍以内となる場合には「白」とする。それ以外の場合には、RPGの中で最も大きな数値となる色とする。なお、この規則は一例であって、これに限られるものではない。
 また、画像番号が「001-01239754」である場合、図12左側のカラーコード表に従い、右のような画像へ変換するのである。
For example, RGP (representing the colors of the three primary colors, red, green, and blue, each of which is a number from 0 to 255) is 85 or more, and is the minimum value in RGP If it is within 1.3 times the value of "white". In other cases, the color is the largest value in the RPG. In addition, this rule is an example, Comprising: It is not restricted to this.
If the image number is “001-01239754”, the image is converted into the image on the right according to the color code table on the left side of FIG.
  (図13)
 図13に示す実施形態では、携帯電話番号など秘匿したい数字データを、顔写真データとともに変換してしまうものである。
 依頼者Dが、自らに係る通信端末(顔写真データ送信手段)を介して、名刺元データにおける顔写真データおよび数字による秘匿希望データを、アプリケーション提供者に係る端末(またはサーバ)へ送信する。
(Fig. 13)
In the embodiment shown in FIG. 13, numeric data to be kept secret such as a mobile phone number is converted together with face photo data.
The requester D transmits the face photo data in the name card original data and the concealment request data by numbers to the terminal (or server) related to the application provider via the communication terminal (face photo data transmitting means) related to the client D.
 アプリケーション提供者に係る端末は、顔写真データ受信手段が顔写真データおよび秘匿希望データを受信し、顔写真データ加工手段へ送る。
 秘匿希望データについては、変換コードテーブルを用いてコード変換し、数字変換画像データを作成する。
 顔写真データは、その数字変換画像データを加えることで合成データとする。このときの合成データは、写真データにおける背景部分などの「非主要領域」(図4参照)の一部と置き換える。
In the terminal relating to the application provider, the face photograph data receiving means receives the face photograph data and the confidentiality request data and sends them to the face photograph data processing means.
Concealment request data is code-converted using a conversion code table to create number-converted image data.
The face photograph data is made into composite data by adding the number-converted image data. The composite data at this time is replaced with a part of a “non-major area” (see FIG. 4) such as a background part in photo data.
 前記の合成データは、シャッフル手段によってシャッフルされ(図7参照)、加工済みデータとなる。この加工済みデータは、加工済みデータ送信手段を介して、依頼者Dへ送信される。
 加工済みデータを受信した依頼者Dは、この加工済みデータを顔写真として用いることで名刺を印刷する。
The composite data is shuffled by the shuffle means (see FIG. 7) and becomes processed data. This processed data is transmitted to the requester D via the processed data transmission means.
The client D who has received the processed data prints a business card by using the processed data as a face photograph.
 なお、図13に示した実施形態においては、図11に示した管理データの付与を省略して説明したが、顔写真データ加工手段において管理番号の付与を併せて実行することも、当然可能である。 In the embodiment shown in FIG. 13, the management data shown in FIG. 11 is omitted. However, it is naturally possible to execute the management number assignment in the face photo data processing means. is there.
  (図14)
 図14は、秘匿希望データとしての携帯電話番号を、カラーコード表を用いて変換する様子を概念的に示したものである。
 図12に示した場合と異なるのは、電話番号の桁数をも把握し、画像変換している点である。
 このように、変換対象となる秘匿希望データの桁数をも管理することとすれば、画像や数字へ戻すときに変換ミスが減ることとなる。
(Fig. 14)
FIG. 14 conceptually shows how a mobile phone number as confidential request data is converted using a color code table.
The difference from the case shown in FIG. 12 is that the number of digits of the telephone number is also grasped and image conversion is performed.
In this way, if the number of digits of the confidential request data to be converted is also managed, conversion errors are reduced when returning to an image or a number.
  (図15)
 図15は、顔写真加工済みデータに対して、画像番号の変換画像、電話番号(携帯電話番号)の変換画像、および電話番号の桁数の変換画像を組み込んだ様子を示す。
 顔写真の加工前において、背景となる部位、主に左右の端部における上側へ、画像番号の変換画像、電話番号(携帯電話番号)の変換画像、および電話番号の桁数の変換画像を組み込んでから、シャッフルすることとしてもよい。
(Fig. 15)
FIG. 15 shows a state in which a converted image of the image number, a converted image of the telephone number (mobile phone number), and a converted image of the number of digits of the telephone number are incorporated into the face photograph processed data.
Before processing a face photo, incorporate the converted image of the image number, the converted image of the phone number (mobile phone number), and the converted image of the number of digits of the phone number on the background part, mainly on the upper left and right ends. Then you can shuffle.
  (図16)
 図16は、顔写真加工済みデータに対して、画像番号の変換画像、電話番号(携帯電話番号)の変換画像、および電話番号の桁数の変換画像を組み込んだ後に、シャッフルして加工済みデータを作成する様子を示している。
(Fig. 16)
FIG. 16 shows the processed image data after incorporating the converted image of the image number, the converted image of the phone number (mobile phone number), and the converted image of the number of digits of the phone number into the face photograph processed data. It shows how to create.
  (図17)
 図17は、顔写真データおよび秘匿したい携帯電話番号を、名詞にて用いる顔写真加工済みデータへ組み込んだデータ加工を、依頼者Dがアプリ提供者へ依頼する場合を示している。
 図10との比較にて相違点を説明すれば、図10では顔写真データのみをアプリ提供者へ送信したが、図17では、携帯電話番号をも送信することとしている。
 そして、アプリ提供者に係るサーバでは、携帯電話番号を含んだ状態で顔写真を加工済みデータへ加工し、依頼者Dへ送り返すのである。
(Fig. 17)
FIG. 17 shows a case where the requester D requests the application provider to process the data in which the face photo data and the mobile phone number to be kept secret are incorporated into the face photo processed data used in the noun.
The difference from FIG. 10 will be described. In FIG. 10, only the face photo data is transmitted to the application provider, but in FIG. 17, the mobile phone number is also transmitted.
Then, the server related to the application provider processes the face photograph into processed data in a state including the mobile phone number and sends it back to the client D.
 加工済みデータを用いて依頼者Dが名刺を作成した場合、顔写真および携帯電話番号を、簡単に見ることはできない。すなわち、専用のアプリケーション(前述した「復元アプリ」)をインストールしたスマートフォンなどでなければ、読めなくすることができる。 When client D creates a business card using processed data, the face photo and mobile phone number cannot be easily viewed. That is, it can be made unreadable unless it is a smartphone or the like in which a dedicated application (the above-mentioned “restoration application”) is installed.
 本発明は、印刷業、広告業、コンピュータソフトウェアの開発業、コンピュータソフトウェアのダウンロードサービスなどの流通業、などにおいて、利用可能性を有する。 The present invention has applicability in the printing industry, the advertising industry, the computer software development industry, the distribution industry such as the computer software download service, and the like.
