DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0009] Hereinafter, one embodiment representing one aspect of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. Fig. 1 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of an inspection system using an inspection program of the present invention, Fig. 2 is a perspective view of a character product as an example of an inspection target. The inspection system 1 shown in Fig. 1 is a system that inspects the quality of character products 50 including character C shown in Fig. 2. As shown in Fig. 1, the inspection system 1 is broadly composed of a management device 10 and a reading device 30. The management device 10 is composed of, for example, a personal computer, a tablet terminal, a smartphone, etc., and includes at least a processor 11 such as a CPU, a storage unit 12, a display device 13, and an operation unit 14. The reading device 30 is composed of a scanner that reads appearance information of manufactured character products.

[0010] The storage unit 12 in the management device 10 has a recording medium such as a flash memory that stores appearance design information and the like of the character merchandise 50. The storage unit 12 stores an inspection program that performs processing of steps 1 to 6, which will be described later. The processor 11 controls the storage unit 12, the display device 13, the operation unit 14, and the reading device 30. For example, the processor 11 acquires appearance design information from the storage unit 12, acquires appearance information from the reading device 30, and determines a difference between the appearance design information and the appearance information based on the appearance design information and the appearance information, and performs control to present this difference. The display device 13 is capable of displaying images, such as a liquid crystal display. The operation unit 14 is a keyboard, mouse, touch panel, or the like.

[0011] As shown in FIG. 2, the character product 50 has a picture of, for example, a girl character C with braided hair drawn on the surface 50a of a product main body member 50b, which has a flat shape and a certain thickness. The character C drawn on the surface 50a is drawn so that its outer periphery 51 (the outermost edge of the picture) is positioned a predetermined distance inside the main body member end 50e of the product main body member 50b. For example, the distance from the outer periphery 51 to the main body member end 50e on the outside of the braided hair and around the lower legs is narrow, i.e., d1. Meanwhile, the lower and upper sides of the character C's head are configured with relatively wide distances d2 and d3. A hole 50h is provided on the upper side of the character C's head for passing a strap or the like.

[0012] Here, the appearance information mentioned above is information obtained by capturing an image of the character merchandise 50 shown in Fig. 2 with the reading device 30. For example, in the character merchandise 50, the information relates to the appearance of the character C, such as the shape of the outer contour line 51 (outermost contour) of the character C, its placement relative to the main body member end 50e (intervals d1, d2, d3, etc.), the position and size of the areas separated by the outline line 52 (outline dividing the design) of the character C, the color of each area, etc.

[0013] The appearance design information is pre-designed information related to the design appearance, such as the shape of the outer contour 51 of the character C, the arrangement of the picture contour 52 of the character C, and the shape and color of each design area separated by the picture contour 52. The appearance design information is provided, for example, as design data recorded in an SVG image format, or as image data of a sample product manufactured according to the design.

[0014] Note that the "presentation control" referred to in the present invention refers to control for displaying (presenting) on ​​the display device 13 the presence or absence of differences in each area, the location of the areas with differences, the magnitude of the differences, etc., as will be described later. Specifically, the differences between the design image of character C and the product image of the character product 50 are presented on the screen so that they can be identified. For example, the design image and the product image are superimposed, and the differences are presented in color so that they are easy to see. In addition to superimposing, the presentation format may also include presenting the design image and the product image side by side on the same screen, or presenting the design image, product image, and superimposed image simultaneously.

[0015] The reading device 30 is configured with at least one of a flat scanner 31 and a 3D scanner 32. That is, when the character merchandise 50 is a three-dimensional object with a flat shape (a shape that represents the character C in a two-dimensional manner), the flat scanner 31 is used, and when the character merchandise 50 is a three-dimensional object with a non-flat shape (a shape that represents the character C in a three-dimensional manner), the 3D scanner 32 is used.

[0016] The inspection program executed by the processor 11 to inspect the quality of the character goods 50 executes processing including a first step of acquiring appearance design information of the character goods 50, a second step of acquiring appearance information of the manufactured character goods 50, and a third step of determining differences between the appearance design information and the appearance information based on the appearance design information and the appearance information, and performing control to present the differences.

[0017] In addition, in the third step of the inspection program, if the character C included in the appearance design information and the character C included in the appearance information of the manufactured product are the same, the difference between the character C in the appearance design information and the character C of the manufactured product is presented. On the other hand, if the character C included in the appearance design information and the character C included in the appearance information are different, the processing in the inspection program executes a fourth step of presenting error information.

[0018] The processing in the inspection program also includes a fifth step of presenting an image based on the appearance information.

[0019] Furthermore, the processing of the inspection program includes a sixth step of presenting the appearance design information and the appearance information in a comparative manner. Specifically, the comparative presentation means, for example, presenting the correct image, which is the appearance design information, and the product image, which is the appearance information, on the same screen so that they can be compared.

[0020] Furthermore, when the character product 50 is a flat three-dimensional object as shown in FIG. 2, the inspection program is an inspection program corresponding to that, and when the character product 50 is a non-flat three-dimensional object (not shown), an inspection program corresponding to the non-flat three-dimensional object is set up. In this embodiment, both inspection programs are set up so that the character product 50 can be used in both flat and non-flat cases. For example, in the second step, when appearance information of a flat three-dimensional object is acquired from the flat scanner 31 of the first device, the inspection program for flat shapes is activated. On the other hand, when appearance information of a non-flat three-dimensional object is acquired from the 3D scanner 32 of the second device, the inspection program for non-flat shapes is activated.

[0021] FIG. 3 is a plan view showing an example of a display screen of the display device. As shown in FIG. 3, the display screen 20 of the display device 13 is provided with a verification data screen 20a capable of presenting pre-loaded appearance design information, a scan data screen 20b presenting scan data of the character product 50, and a judgment screen 20d displaying the inspection results.

[0022] In the third step, if there is a difference between the character C of the appearance design information and the character C of the product, the difference is displayed using color elements (red R) and color elements (yellow Y) in the character C, as shown in Fig. 3. For example, the difference indicated by the color elements (red R) and color elements (yellow Y) is displayed brighter than the dark black part B of the other parts on the judgment screen 20d.

[0023] In addition, in the third step, as another example, a difference between character C in the appearance design information and character C of the product is presented in the form of a difference in the area of ​​color elements at the same location on character C. In other words, a difference in the color area of ​​a part of the pattern means that there is a protrusion or shortage (small area) of a color element, or even a misalignment of the pattern outline 52. In this case, too, the location where the difference in the area of ​​the color element occurs is presented on the screen (see FIG. 7).

[0024] Furthermore, as described above, in the third step, the areas where differences occur can be presented using color elements (R, Y) that are different from at least one of the color elements included in the appearance design information and the color elements included in the product appearance information, and preferably different from both of these color elements, thereby preventing misidentification of the differences.

[0025] The inspection procedure will now be specifically explained using the display screen 20 of the display device 13. The inspection procedure involves displaying the appearance design information previously imported into the management device 10 on the verification data screen 20a on the display screen 20 of the display device 13. Next, manufactured character products 50 are randomly picked, and scan data of the products is obtained by setting them on the flat scanner 31. This scan data is displayed on the scan data screen 20b below the verification data screen 20a. After that, the judgment button 20c is operated, and the judgment result is displayed on the judgment screen 20d to the right of the scan data screen 20b. The judgment result is based on the judgment criteria set below.

[0026] In the third step of judgment, multiple criteria for judging differences can be set. For example, a first criterion, a second criterion, and a third criterion can be set as these criteria. These multiple judgment criteria include a first criterion, a second criterion that is stricter than the first criterion, and a third criterion that is stricter than the second criterion. Specifically, judgment criteria buttons, such as a loose button 21 for specifying a "loose" color judgment, a normal button 22 for specifying a "normal" color judgment, and a strict button 23 for specifying a "strict" color judgment, are provided immediately above the judgment screen 20d.

[0027] Also provided are a "line drawing" line drawing judgment button 24 for checking the difference in the position of the outer contour line 51, and an "area" area setting button 25 for specifying specific areas E1, E2, etc., which will be described later. Note that the "area setting" will result in a judgment covering the entire area of ​​the character product 50 unless, for example, the operation button is operated.

[0028] In the color judgment, as shown in the judgment screen 20d of Fig. 3, the areas where color differences occur are displayed brighter than other areas so that they are easier to see. Furthermore, in the presentation of the color judgment, not only the areas where there are different colors are displayed but also the magnitude of the color difference can be displayed. For example, as shown in the judgment screen 20d, if the difference is large, it is displayed in red (the area indicated by R in the drawing), and if the difference is small, it is displayed in yellow (the area indicated by Y in the drawing).

[0029] The screen display method is such that areas where differences exist are displayed in bright colors, while areas where no differences exist are displayed as a dark black area B, as described above. This makes it easy to understand the differences. It is also desirable to display the differences using colors that are not included in the product images or design data.

[0030] FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram showing a screen for presenting the first criterion of the determination result. In the third step of the inspection program, for example, in the case of a control that first sets the first standard ("loose"), determines the difference, and presents the difference, two differences are presented as shown on the first standard screen in Figure 4.

[0031] FIG. 5 is an explanatory diagram showing a screen for presenting the second criterion of the determination result. Next, in the case of control in which a second standard ("normal") is set, differences are determined, and the differences are presented, as shown on the second standard screen in FIG.

[0032] FIG. 6 is an explanatory diagram showing a screen for presenting the third criterion of the determination result. Furthermore, in the case of control in which the third standard "strict" is set and differences are judged and presented, seven differences are presented as shown in the third standard screen (c).

[0033] In this way, the results are judged in the order of, for example, "loose," "normal," and "tight." This inspection procedure allows the user to check the areas with differences in order, reducing the chance of overlooking differences. In addition, the magnitude of the color difference is displayed in four levels, for example, R (red), Y (yellow), X (green), and Z (blue), in order of magnitude.

[0034] In this embodiment, since the area setting button 25 was not operated, the setting is such that the entire area of ​​the outer contour 51 and the picture contour 52 of the character C are compared. Therefore, for example, as differences, the areas where there are differences between the shapes determined by the design of the outer contour 51 and the picture contour 52 of the character C and the shapes of the manufactured product are displayed on the inspection result screen. For example, if there are differences in the contours, they can be displayed as contour difference areas g where the differences occur with markings different from those used in the color judgment, as shown in FIG.

[0035] FIG. 7 is an explanatory diagram of setting the inspection area of ​​a character. In the appearance design information, a specific area can be set as an inspection area for the character C. For example, as shown in Fig. 7, a plurality of areas E1, E2, etc. are set as area information as specific areas to be inspected. In this area setting, information such as an outer contour line 51, a pattern contour line 52, and color elements of the pattern within each of the areas E1, E2, etc. is further set.

[0036] Meanwhile, corresponding areas 50E1, 50E1... of the character product 50 are set in correspondence with the areas E1, E2... of the design information described above. That is, the same areas are set on the acquired image (product image) of the character product 50 so that there is a one-to-one correspondence between the areas E1, E2... of the design information and the corresponding areas 50E1, 50E1... of the character product 50. Then, for each set area, a difference determination is performed using various information such as color elements. In this case, only each set area is compared, without comparing the entire character C.

[0037] In the third step of the inspection program, if there is a difference in color or the like, the difference is displayed for each corresponding area 50E1, 50E1... in the product image where there is a difference, as shown in Figure 7. When displaying the corresponding areas 50E1, 50E1... where there is a difference, the display can be done using a color (R, Y, X, etc.) corresponding to the magnitude of the difference, as described above. Other methods of displaying the difference include, for example, changing the color of the area boundary line (the line on the outer periphery of the ink-like portion B on the judgment screen 20d) that indicates the corresponding areas 50E1, 50E1..., or providing a difference level display section on the judgment screen 20d that indicates the magnitude of the difference level and displaying the level difference using a color or mark.

[0038] In selecting these specific regions E1, E2, etc., regions where differences frequently occur are selected, which allows for effective difference determination.

[0039] FIG. 8 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a presentation of test results. Furthermore, as a presentation format for the corresponding regions 50E1, 50E1..., in addition to presenting the differences in color elements as described above, it is possible to display the deviations between the outer contour line 51 and the picture contour line 52 as shown in Fig. 8. The deviations in the contour lines may be presented in the form of the contour line difference portion g shown in Fig. 6 above, but it is easier to present the deviations by presenting the corresponding regions 50E1, 50E1... as enlarged images on the presentation screen.

[0040] As described above, in the inspection program of this embodiment, in the third step, if a difference is found, a color element (R, Y, X, Z) corresponding to the magnitude of the difference is presented for each corresponding area 50E1, 50E1... corresponding to the area in the appearance information of the character merchandise 50 where the difference occurred. However, as a modified example, an additional color display may be used to further change the color depending on the type of reference level (e.g., first reference, second reference, third reference) used to determine the difference. In this case, the presentation may be, for example, a combination of four colors (R, Y, X, Z) and three levels of reference colors, or a total of 12 colors obtained by multiplying the four colors (R, Y, X, Z) by three reference levels to directly indicate the difference.

[0041] As described above, in this embodiment, the inspection program executes a process including a first step of acquiring appearance design information, a second step of acquiring post-manufacture appearance information, a third step of controlling the determination of differences between the two pieces of appearance information, and the presentation of the difference determination, thereby enabling the quality of manufactured products to be improved.

[0042] In this embodiment, in the third step, if the character C included in the appearance design information (first step) and the character C included in the appearance information after manufacture (second step) are the same, control is performed to present the difference, thereby avoiding program complexity and reducing the load on the processor 11, thereby providing an inspection program with high processing speed. For example, by presenting error information (fourth step) if the characters in the first step and second step are different, efficient processing by the processor 11 can be achieved.

[0043] In this embodiment, the inspection program processing includes a fifth step of presenting a scanned product image based on the appearance information, and a sixth step of presenting the product image in comparison with the appearance design information, i.e., including the correct image and the product image on the same screen, thereby facilitating comparison inspection.

[0044] In this embodiment, the inspection program is compatible with perspective images (three-dimensional images), and therefore can also be used with three-dimensional character merchandise 50.

[0045] In this embodiment, the second step is configured to obtain appearance information of a flat three-dimensional object (flat product) from the flat scanner 31 (first device), and obtain appearance information of a non-flat three-dimensional object (three-dimensional product) from the 3D scanner 32 (second device), thereby providing an inspection program that can handle both flat products and three-dimensional products.

[0046] In the third step of the inspection program of this embodiment, the color scheme and shade of character C can be inspected by implementing control to present differences such as differences in color elements and differences in the areas of color elements.

[0047] Furthermore, in presenting the difference in color elements in the third step, the difference is presented using color elements different from the color elements included in the appearance design image, or color elements different from the appearance image of the manufactured product, or color elements different from both the appearance design image and the appearance image of the manufactured product. This makes it easier to distinguish between, for example, the appearance design image of character C, the appearance image of the manufactured product, and the image of the inspection results. In particular, when the appearance design image of character C, the appearance image of the manufactured product, and the image of the inspection results are displayed simultaneously on the same display screen, using color elements that are not actually used for character C makes it easier to check the inspection results.

[0048] In the inspection program of this embodiment, the appearance design information includes information on multiple areas set on character C and information on the color elements of each of the multiple areas, so that specific areas (for example, areas where color errors or color scheme errors are likely to occur) can be focused on for inspection.This means that the amount of information can be reduced compared to when inspecting the entire character, and inspection results can be presented more quickly.

[0049] In the third step of the inspection program of this embodiment, if the difference is a difference in color elements, an image is presented for each corresponding area 50E1, 50E2, ... in the product image that corresponds to each area of ​​the design image where there is a difference, making it easy to confirm the content of the difference for each corresponding area and to grasp the difference.

[0050] Furthermore, in the third step, the corresponding areas 50E1, 50E2, etc. where there is a difference are displayed in a color according to the magnitude of the difference (difference level). For example, if the difference is large, red R is displayed, and if the difference is small, yellow Y is displayed, thereby indicating the magnitude of the difference, and making it easier to confirm and determine the difference.

[0051] In the third step, the inspection program of this embodiment performs control to present the difference in the position of the outer contour 51 of character C relative to the product main body material as the difference, so that in cases where the shapes match but there is a deviation in the position of the outer contour 51, it is possible to present the deviation between the position of the edge (contour) determined in the design and the position of the edge (contour) actually manufactured.

[0052] The inspection program of this aspect allows the standard for determining the difference in the third step to be set to any one of a number of standards, thereby enabling the inspection level of the manufactured product to be freely set. Furthermore, by setting successively higher standards for determination, such as a first standard, a second standard, and a third standard, it becomes easier to set the standard level.

[0053] In addition, in the third step, the judgment results can be displayed sequentially by switching the standard level in stages using a control that displays the difference based on the first standard, a control that displays the difference based on the second standard, and a control that displays the difference based on the third standard, thereby preventing mistakes in checking the inspection. Also, flexible judgment of product quality is possible by selecting standards depending on the type of product, etc.

[0054] In this embodiment, in addition to presenting the results in different colors depending on the magnitude of the difference in the test results, the display format can be diversified by further changing the color based on the test criteria.

[0055] In this embodiment, the inspection system 1 comprises a memory unit 12 that stores appearance design information of the character goods 50, a reading device 30 that reads the appearance information of the manufactured character goods, and a processor 11, and the processor 11 acquires the appearance design information from the memory unit 12 and the appearance information from the reading device 30, and determines the differences between the appearance design information and the appearance information based on the appearance design information and the appearance information, and presents the differences, thereby contributing to improving the quality of the character goods 50 manufactured.

[0056] Although one embodiment representing one aspect of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment and can be modified as appropriate within the scope of the technical concept of the present invention. For example, while the "presentation" in the above embodiment uses the display device 13, which is an image display means such as a liquid crystal display, the presenting is not limited to the image display by the display device 13, and may be a presentation form that combines printed display by a printer or even a display using audio.
