[0057] In the second embodiment, the display attribute information is used as information specifying the color of characters displayed on the display 22 . That is to say, the electronic shelf label 2 changes the color of the characters displayed on the display 22 into various colors such as red, blue, yellow, and green according to the display attribute information stored in the display attribute area 27D. Other configurations are the same as those of the first embodiment.

no. 3 example ）

[0059] The third embodiment is a case where display attribute information is used as information specifying the shape of a frame surrounding commodity information displayed on the display 22 . That is, if Figure 12A Or as shown in 12B, the electronic shelf label 2 encloses product information such as product name and price with a diamond-shaped or oval-shaped frame based on the display attribute information stored in the display attribute area 27D.

Abstract

According to one embodiment, an apparatus includes an article information detecting unit, an identification information detecting unit, and a distribution unit. The article information detecting unit detects article information displayed on the electronic shelf labels specified by shelf label identification information. The identification information detecting unit detects group identification information to identify whether articles having the article information displayed on the electronic shelf labels specified by the shelf label identification information belong to a same group or not. The distribution unit distributes display attribute information to differentiate display forms of the article information between articles belonging to the same group and articles that do not belong to the same group, to the electronic shelf label specified by the shelf label identification information corresponding to the article information of each of the articles identified as articles belonging to the same group from based on the group identification information.

Description

[0001] This application claims the priority right with the application number of JP2010-114687 and the filing date of May 18, 2010. This application refers to all the contents in the above documents. technical field [0002] The present invention relates to an electronic shelf label system for controlling the display of an electronic shelf label. Background technique [0003] In supermarkets, there is a sales method called mix and match (hereinafter referred to as "M&M method"). This method sells the total price at a lower price when collectively purchasing products in a designated quantity from a plurality of products selected in advance.
