Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electronic price tags, and in particular to a method for displaying commodity information corresponding to an electronic price tag and a related device. Background Art

[0002] With the rise of concepts such as smart retail, smart supermarkets, and unmanned stores, the application of electronic price tags has become increasingly widespread in recent years. People have also seen electronic price tags in more and more scenes in their daily lives.

[0003] The electronic price tag system consists of three parts: server, base station and electronic price tag. The server manages the information of base stations and electronic price tags scattered in various stores. The base station is responsible for managing multiple electronic price tags and sending correct product information to the electronic price tag. The electronic price tag is responsible for receiving and parsing product information and displaying the product information to customers in an appropriate way.

[0004] In the prior art, electronic price tags are usually designed to be small in size for the purpose of saving power, and the corresponding screen is also small. In some large shopping malls, due to the different sizes and types of goods, the electronic price tags are placed in different locations, which will cause inconvenience to users in viewing the electronic price tags. For example, since large items are very large in size and the electronic price tags are very small, if the electronic price tags are placed under the goods, tall users often have to bend over or squat to view the electronic price tags. If the electronic price tags are placed on the goods, it is inconvenient for short users to view the electronic price tags. Therefore, how to make the product information displayed on the electronic price tags easier to view has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently. Summary of the invention

[0038] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention, and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0039] In the subsequent description, the suffixes such as "module", "component" or "unit" used to represent elements are only used to facilitate the description of the present invention, and have no specific meanings. Therefore, "module", "component" or "unit" can be used in a mixed manner.

[0040] The terminal may be implemented in various forms. For example, the terminal described in the present invention may include mobile terminals such as mobile phones, tablet computers, laptop computers, PDAs, portable media players (PMPs), navigation devices, wearable devices, smart bracelets, pedometers, etc., as well as fixed terminals such as digital TVs and desktop computers.

[0041] The following description will be made by taking a mobile terminal as an example, and those skilled in the art will appreciate that, in addition to components specifically used for mobile purposes, the configuration according to the embodiments of the present invention can also be applied to fixed-type terminals.

[0042] See also Figure 1 , which is a schematic diagram of the hardware structure of a mobile terminal for implementing various embodiments of the present invention, the mobile terminal 100 may include: RF (Radio Frequency, radio frequency) unit 101, WiFi module 102, audio output unit 103, A / V (audio / video) input unit 104, sensor 105, display unit 106, user input unit 107, interface unit 108, memory 109, processor 110, and power supply 111 and other components. Those skilled in the art can understand that Figure 1 The structure of the mobile terminal shown in the figure does not constitute a limitation on the mobile terminal. The mobile terminal may include more or fewer components than shown in the figure, or combine certain components, or arrange the components differently.

[0043] Combine the following Figure 1The following is a detailed introduction to the various components of the mobile terminal:

[0044] The radio frequency unit 101 can be used for receiving and sending signals during information transmission or calls. Specifically, after receiving the downlink information of the mobile communication base station, it is sent to the processor 110 for processing; in addition, the uplink data is sent to the mobile communication base station. Generally, the radio frequency unit 101 includes but is not limited to an antenna, at least one amplifier, a transceiver, a coupler, a low noise amplifier, a duplexer, etc. In addition, the radio frequency unit 101 can also communicate with the network and other devices through wireless communication. The above-mentioned wireless communication can use any communication standard or protocol, including but not limited to GSM (Global System of Mobilecommunication), GPRS (General Packet Radio Service), CDMA2000 (Code Division Multiple Access2000), WCDMA (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access), TD-SCDMA (Time Division-Synchronous Code Division Multiple Access), FDD-LTE (Frequency Division Duplexing-Long Term Evolution) and TDD-LTE (Time Division Duplexing-Long Term Evolution), etc.

[0045] WiFi is a short-range wireless transmission technology. Mobile terminals can help users send and receive emails, browse web pages, and access streaming media through WiFi module 102. It provides users with wireless broadband Internet access. Figure 1 The WiFi module 102 is shown, but it is understandable that it is not an essential component of the mobile terminal and can be omitted as required without changing the essence of the invention.

[0046] The audio output unit 103 can convert the audio data received by the RF unit 101 or the WiFi module 102 or stored in the memory 109 into an audio signal and output it as sound when the mobile terminal 100 is in a call signal reception mode, a talk mode, a recording mode, a voice recognition mode, a broadcast reception mode, etc. Moreover, the audio output unit 103 can also provide audio output related to a specific function performed by the mobile terminal 100 (for example, a call signal reception sound, a message reception sound, etc.). The audio output unit 103 may include a speaker, a buzzer, etc.

[0047] The A / V input unit 104 is used to receive audio or video signals. The A / V input unit 104 may include a graphics processor (GPU) 1041 and a microphone 1042, and the graphics processor 1041 processes the image data of a static picture or video obtained by an image capture device (such as a camera) in a video capture mode or an image capture mode. The processed image frame can be displayed on the display unit 106. The image frame processed by the graphics processor 1041 can be stored in the memory 109 (or other storage medium) or sent via the radio frequency unit 101 or the WiFi module 102. The microphone 1042 can receive sound (audio data) via the microphone 1042 in a telephone call mode, a recording mode, a voice recognition mode, and other operating modes, and can process such sound into audio data. The processed audio (voice) data can be converted into a format output that can be sent to a mobile communication base station via the radio frequency unit 101 in the case of a telephone call mode. The microphone 1042 can implement various types of noise elimination (or suppression) algorithms to eliminate (or suppress) noise or interference generated in the process of receiving and sending audio signals.

[0048] The mobile terminal 100 also includes at least one sensor 105, such as a light sensor, a motion sensor, and other sensors. Specifically, the light sensor includes an ambient light sensor and a proximity sensor, wherein the ambient light sensor can adjust the brightness of the display panel 1061 according to the brightness of the ambient light, and the proximity sensor can turn off the display panel 1061 and / or the backlight when the mobile terminal 100 is moved to the ear. As a type of motion sensor, the accelerometer sensor can detect the magnitude of acceleration in all directions (generally three axes), and can detect the magnitude and direction of gravity when stationary. It can be used for applications that identify the posture of the mobile phone (such as horizontal and vertical screen switching, related games, magnetometer posture calibration), vibration recognition related functions (such as pedometer, tapping), etc.; as for other sensors that can also be configured on the mobile phone, such as fingerprint sensors, pressure sensors, iris sensors, molecular sensors, gyroscopes, barometers, hygrometers, thermometers, infrared sensors, etc., they will not be repeated here.

[0049] The display unit 106 is used to display information input by the user or information provided to the user. The display unit 106 may include a display panel 1061, which may be configured in the form of a liquid crystal display (LCD), an organic light-emitting diode (OLED), or the like.

[0050] The user input unit 107 can be used to receive input digital or character information, and to generate key signal input related to the user settings and function control of the mobile terminal. Specifically, the user input unit 107 may include a touch panel 1071 and other input devices 1072. The touch panel 1071, also known as a touch screen, can collect the user's touch operation on or near it (such as the user's operation on the touch panel 1071 or near the touch panel 1071 using any suitable object or accessory such as a finger, stylus, etc.), and drive the corresponding connection device according to a pre-set program. The touch panel 1071 may include two parts: a touch detection device and a touch controller. Among them, the touch detection device detects the user's touch orientation, detects the signal brought by the touch operation, and transmits the signal to the touch controller; the touch controller receives the touch information from the touch detection device, converts it into the touch point coordinates, and then sends it to the processor 110, and can receive and execute the command sent by the processor 110. In addition, the touch panel 1071 can be implemented in various types such as resistive, capacitive, infrared, and surface acoustic waves. In addition to the touch panel 1071, the user input unit 107 may also include other input devices 1072. Specifically, the other input devices 1072 may include, but are not limited to, one or more of a physical keyboard, a function key (such as a volume control key, a switch key, etc.), a trackball, a mouse, a joystick, etc., which are not specifically limited here.

[0051] Furthermore, the touch panel 1071 may cover the display panel 1061. When the touch panel 1071 detects a touch operation on or near it, it transmits the information to the processor 110 to determine the type of the touch event. Then, the processor 110 provides a corresponding visual output on the display panel 1061 according to the type of the touch event. Figure 1 In the figure, the touch panel 1071 and the display panel 1061 are used as two independent components to implement the input and output functions of the mobile terminal. However, in some embodiments, the touch panel 1071 and the display panel 1061 can be integrated to implement the input and output functions of the mobile terminal, which is not limited here.

[0052] The interface unit 108 serves as an interface through which at least one external device can be connected to the mobile terminal 100. For example, the external device may include a wired or wireless headset port, an external power supply (or battery charger) port, a wired or wireless data port, a memory card port, a port for connecting a device with an identification module, an audio input / output (I / O) port, a video I / O port, a headphone port, etc. The interface unit 108 may be used to receive input (e.g., data information, power, etc.) from an external device and transmit the received input to one or more elements within the mobile terminal 100 or may be used to transmit data between the mobile terminal 100 and an external device.

[0053] The memory 109 can be used to store software programs and various data. The memory 109 can mainly include a program storage area and a data storage area, wherein the program storage area can store an operating system, an application required for at least one function (such as a sound playback function, an image playback function, etc.), etc.; the data storage area can store data created according to the use of the mobile phone (such as audio data, a phone book, etc.), etc. In addition, the memory 109 can include a high-speed random access memory, and can also include a non-volatile memory, such as at least one disk storage device, a flash memory device, or other volatile solid-state storage devices.

[0054] The processor 110 is the control center of the mobile terminal. It uses various interfaces and lines to connect various parts of the entire mobile terminal. It executes various functions of the mobile terminal and processes data by running or executing software programs and / or modules stored in the memory 109, and calling data stored in the memory 109, so as to monitor the mobile terminal as a whole. The processor 110 may include one or more processing units; preferably, the processor 110 may integrate an application processor and a modem processor, wherein the application processor mainly processes the operating system, user interface, and application programs, etc., and the modem processor mainly processes wireless communications. It is understandable that the above-mentioned modem processor may not be integrated into the processor 110.

[0055] The mobile terminal 100 may also include a power supply 111 (such as a battery) for supplying power to various components. Preferably, the power supply 111 may be logically connected to the processor 110 via a power management system, thereby implementing functions such as charging, discharging, and power consumption management through the power management system.

[0056] although Figure 1 Not shown, the mobile terminal 100 may further include a Bluetooth module, etc., which will not be described in detail here.

[0057] To facilitate understanding of the embodiments of the present invention, the communication network system on which the mobile terminal of the present invention is based is described below.

[0058] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 A communication network system architecture diagram is provided for an embodiment of the present invention. The communication network system is an LTE system of universal mobile communication technology. The LTE system includes a UE (User Equipment) 201, an E-UTRAN (Evolved UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access Network) 202, an EPC (Evolved Packet Core) 203 and an operator's IP service 204, which are sequentially connected for communication.

[0059] Specifically, UE201 may be the above-mentioned terminal 100, which will not be described in detail here.

[0060] E-UTRAN 202 includes eNodeB 2021 and other eNodeBs 2022 , etc. Among them, eNodeB 2021 can be connected to other eNodeBs 2022 through a backhaul (eg, an X2 interface), and eNodeB 2021 is connected to EPC 203 , and eNodeB 2021 can provide UE 201 with access to EPC 203 .

[0061] EPC203 may include MME (Mobility Management Entity) 2031, HSS (Home Subscriber Server) 2032, other MMEs 2033, SGW (Serving Gate Way) 2034, PGW (PDN Gate Way) 2035 and PCRF (Policy and Charging Rules Function) 2036, etc. Among them, MME2031 is a control node that processes signaling between UE201 and EPC203, and provides bearer and connection management. HSS2032 is used to provide some registers to manage functions such as home location register (not shown in the figure), and save some user-specific information such as service features and data rates. All user data can be sent through SGW2034. PGW2035 can provide IP address allocation and other functions for UE201. PCRF2036 is the policy and charging control policy decision point for service data flow and IP bearer resources. It selects and provides available policy and charging control decisions for the policy and charging execution function unit (not shown in the figure).

[0062] The IP service 204 may include the Internet, an intranet, an IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) or other IP services.

[0063] Although the above introduction takes the LTE system as an example, those skilled in the art should know that the present invention is not only applicable to the LTE system, but also to other wireless communication systems, such as GSM, CDMA2000, WCDMA, TD-SCDMA and future new network systems, etc., which are not limited here.

[0064] Based on the above mobile terminal hardware structure and communication network system, various embodiments of the method of the present invention are proposed.

[0065] Embodiment 1

[0066] Figure 3 It is a flowchart of the method for displaying the product information corresponding to the electronic price tag provided in the first embodiment of the present application. The process in this embodiment is run through a mobile terminal, wherein each step can be performed in sequence as in the flowchart, or multiple steps can be performed simultaneously according to actual conditions, which is not limited here. The mobile terminal includes at least one communication module and a display module, wherein the communication module is used to communicate with a base station, and the display module is used to display the received product information, wherein the base station is a base station in the electronic price tag system. The method for displaying the product information corresponding to the electronic price tag provided in the present application includes the following steps:

[0067] Step S11, obtaining information required for binding with a base station, and binding with the base station according to the information;

[0068] Step S12, receiving commodity information corresponding to the electronic price tag whose distance from the mobile terminal is less than a preset threshold, sent by the base station;

[0069] Step S13, displaying part or all of the product information.

[0070] Through the above implementation, first, the information required for binding with the base station is obtained, and the base station is bound according to the information; then, the product information corresponding to the electronic price tag whose distance from the mobile terminal is less than a preset threshold is received from the base station; finally, part or all of the content of the product information is displayed. The product information corresponding to the electronic price tag near the mobile terminal can be displayed on the mobile terminal, making the product information displayed on the electronic price tag easier to view.

[0071] The above steps will be described in detail below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.

[0072] In step S11, information required for binding with a base station is obtained, and binding with the base station is performed according to the information.

[0073] In this embodiment, the information required for binding with the base station is first obtained; then, the base station is bound according to the information, so as to receive the commodity information corresponding to the electronic price tag sent by the base station in the future. The information can be the protocol entry information for communicating with the base station; the method for obtaining the information can be scanning a QR code related to the information, or other methods. This embodiment does not limit the specific method for obtaining the information; the binding with the base station according to the information can be that the mobile terminal reaches a communication protocol with the base station through the communication module according to the obtained protocol entry information for communicating with the base station.

[0074] For example, a shopping mall that uses an electronic price tag system can generate a QR code from the protocol entry information for communicating with the base station and place it at the mall entrance. Users use their mobile terminals to scan the QR code to establish a communication protocol with the base station, so that users can receive the product information corresponding to the electronic price tag sent by the base station through the mobile terminal.

[0075] In step S12, commodity information corresponding to an electronic price tag whose distance from the mobile terminal is less than a preset threshold and is sent by a base station is received.

[0076] In this embodiment, the mobile terminal can receive the commodity information corresponding to the electronic price tag whose distance from the mobile terminal is less than a preset threshold value, which is sent by the base station bound to it, so as to display the commodity information on the mobile terminal for the user to view. Among them, limiting the range of the electronic price tag to the distance from the mobile terminal less than the preset threshold value can reduce the number of shortlisted electronic price tags, thereby reducing the data traffic consumption of the mobile terminal while reducing the data processing burden of the base station. The value of the preset threshold value can be determined according to the specific situation. The larger the value, the more shortlisted electronic price tags, and the more commodity information corresponding to the shortlisted electronic price tags can be received by the mobile terminal, which is more convenient for users to compare similar commodities; the smaller the value, the fewer shortlisted electronic price tags, the less commodity information corresponding to the shortlisted electronic price tags received by the mobile terminal, the smaller the corresponding base station data processing burden, and the less data traffic consumed by the mobile terminal.

[0077] In one embodiment, the step of receiving the commodity information corresponding to the electronic price tag whose distance from the mobile terminal is less than a preset threshold and sent by the base station includes:

[0078] Step S121, receiving a commodity information corresponding to an electronic price tag whose distance to the mobile terminal is less than a preset threshold, or multiple commodity information corresponding to one or more electronic price tags, sent by a base station.

[0079] In this embodiment, the number of electronic price tags whose distance from the mobile terminal is less than the preset threshold may be one or more. Specifically, one electronic price tag may correspond to one item of product information or multiple items of product information, and multiple electronic price tags may correspond to multiple items of product information. The mobile terminal may receive one item of product information corresponding to one electronic price tag whose distance from the mobile terminal is less than the preset threshold, or multiple items of product information corresponding to one or more electronic price tags, sent by a base station bound thereto, so as to subsequently display the one item of product information or the multiple items of product information on the mobile terminal for viewing by the user.

[0080] In step S13, part or all of the content of the product information is displayed.

[0081] In this embodiment, after the mobile terminal receives the product information corresponding to the electronic price tag whose distance from the mobile terminal is less than a preset threshold and sent by the base station bound to the mobile terminal, part or all of the content of the product information can be displayed on the mobile terminal through the display module, thereby realizing that the product information corresponding to the electronic price tag nearby is displayed on the mobile terminal, making the product information displayed on the electronic price tag easier to view.

[0082] For example, after receiving the product information, the mobile terminal can display the entire content of the product information on the mobile terminal, or only display part of the content of the product information according to the different categories of the products corresponding to the product information. For example, for perishable food, users are most concerned about the production date and shelf life of the product, followed by the price of the product. In this case, only the production date, shelf life and price of the product can be displayed; for non-perishable detergents and chemicals, users are most concerned about the brand, specifications and price of the product. In this case, only the brand, specifications and price of the product can be displayed. In this way, the displayed product information can be more targeted, saving users time in reading product information.

[0083] In one embodiment, the step of displaying part or all of the content of the product information includes:

[0084] Step S131, if the item of product information is received, display part or all of the content of the item of product information;

[0085] Step S132: if the multiple items of product information are received, part or all of the content of the multiple items of product information are displayed, or the index of the multiple items of product information is displayed. When a product information display instruction based on the index input is received, part or all of the content of the multiple items of product information is displayed according to the product information display instruction.

[0086] In this embodiment, if one item of product information is received, part or all of the content of the item of product information is displayed; if multiple items of product information are received, part or all of the content of the multiple items of product information is displayed, or the index of the multiple items of product information is displayed. When a product information display instruction based on the index input is received, part or all of the content of the multiple items of product information is displayed according to the product information display instruction. Thus, when multiple items of product information are received, by displaying the index of the multiple items of product information, the user is provided with an opportunity to select part of the product information that he is interested in for display, so that the displayed product information is more targeted and saves the user's time in reading the product information.

[0087] In one embodiment, while or after displaying part or all of the product information, the method further includes:

[0088] Step S14, if an instruction to purchase the first commodity corresponding to the first commodity information is received, purchasing the first commodity;

[0089] Step S15, if an instruction to follow a second product corresponding to the second product information is received, the second product is followed and the second product information is saved so as to facilitate viewing the second product information again;

[0090] Step S16: if an instruction to add a third product corresponding to the third product information to the shopping cart is received, the third product is added to the shopping cart.

[0091] In this embodiment, if an instruction to purchase a first commodity corresponding to the first commodity information is received, the first commodity is purchased; if an instruction to follow a second commodity corresponding to the second commodity information is received, the second commodity is followed and the second commodity information is saved, so that the second commodity information can be viewed again; if an instruction to add a third commodity corresponding to the third commodity information to a shopping cart is received, the third commodity is added to the shopping cart. This makes it convenient for the user to directly purchase the commodity he needs through the mobile terminal after viewing the commodity information on the mobile terminal, or to follow the commodity corresponding to the commodity information he is interested in and save the commodity information, so that the commodity information can be viewed again, or to put the commodity he plans to buy into the shopping cart, so that he can find the commodity in the shopping cart in time for purchase when he decides to buy the commodity.

[0092] For example, while or after displaying part or all of the product information, if the product corresponding to the product information is what the user needs, and the user is satisfied with the product after viewing the product information, the user can start the payment process by clicking the purchase button corresponding to the product and purchase the product; if the user is very interested in the product corresponding to the product information, and the user still needs to compare prices and cannot decide whether to buy it for the time being, the user can follow the product and save the product information by clicking the follow button corresponding to the product, so as to view the product information later and compare with similar products; if the product corresponding to the product information is the product that the user plans to buy, the user can put the product into the shopping cart by clicking the shopping cart button corresponding to the product, so as to find the product in the shopping cart and purchase it in time when deciding to buy the product.

[0093] In the above implementation, by acquiring the information required for binding with the base station, binding with the base station according to the information; receiving the commodity information corresponding to the electronic price tag whose distance from the mobile terminal is less than a preset threshold sent by the base station; and displaying part or all of the content of the commodity information, the commodity information corresponding to the electronic price tag near the mobile terminal can be displayed on the mobile terminal, making the commodity information displayed on the electronic price tag easier to view.

The process in this embodiment is run by a base station, wherein the base station is a base station in the electronic price tag system. When running, each step can be performed in the order shown in the flow chart, or multiple steps can be performed simultaneously according to the actual situation, which is not limited here. The method for displaying product information corresponding to the electronic price tag provided in this application includes the following steps:

[0096] Step S21, receiving a binding request sent by a mobile terminal and binding with the mobile terminal;

[0097] Step S22, obtaining the location information of the electronic price tag and the mobile terminal;

[0098] Step S23: if the distance between the electronic price tag and the mobile terminal is less than a preset threshold, the product information corresponding to the electronic price tag is sent to the mobile terminal, so that the mobile terminal can display part or all of the product information.

[0099] Through the above implementation, first, a binding request sent by a mobile terminal is received and bound to the mobile terminal; then, the location information of the electronic price tag and the mobile terminal is obtained; finally, if the distance between the electronic price tag and the mobile terminal is less than a preset threshold, the product information corresponding to the electronic price tag is sent to the mobile terminal so that the mobile terminal can display part or all of the content of the product information. The product information corresponding to the electronic price tag nearby can be displayed on the mobile terminal, making the product information displayed on the electronic price tag easier to view.

[0100] The above steps will be described in detail below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.

[0101] In step S21, a binding request sent by a mobile terminal is received and the mobile terminal is bound.

[0102] In this embodiment, the base station can receive a binding request sent by the mobile terminal and bind with the mobile terminal, so as to subsequently send the commodity information corresponding to the electronic price tag to the mobile terminal. Specifically, the receiving of the binding request sent by the mobile terminal and binding with the mobile terminal can be that the base station receives the binding request sent by the mobile terminal, and then reaches a communication protocol with the mobile terminal based on the binding request.

[0103] In step S22, the location information of the electronic price tag and the mobile terminal is obtained.

[0104] In this embodiment, the base station obtains the location information of the electronic price tag and the mobile terminal, so as to determine whether the distance between the electronic price tag and the mobile terminal is less than a preset threshold. The base station can obtain the location information of the mobile terminal by communicating with the bound mobile terminal; the location information of the electronic price tag can be obtained by monitoring the positioning broadcast sent by the electronic price tag, or the location information of the electronic price tag can be obtained directly from the electronic price tag server, or the location information of the electronic price tag can be obtained by other means. This embodiment does not limit the specific method for the base station to obtain the location information of the electronic price tag.

[0105] In step S23, if the distance between the electronic price tag and the mobile terminal is less than a preset threshold, the product information corresponding to the electronic price tag is sent to the mobile terminal so that the mobile terminal can display part or all of the product information.

[0106] In this embodiment, after the base station has obtained the location information of the electronic price tag and the mobile terminal, it can judge the distance between the electronic price tag and the mobile terminal. If the distance between the electronic price tag and the mobile terminal is less than the preset threshold, the commodity information corresponding to the electronic price tag is sent to the mobile terminal, so that the mobile terminal can display part or all of the content of the commodity information, making the commodity information displayed by the electronic price tag easier to view. Among them, limiting the range of the electronic price tag to the distance from the mobile terminal less than the preset threshold can reduce the number of shortlisted electronic price tags, thereby reducing the data processing burden of the base station and reducing the data traffic consumption of the mobile terminal. The value of the preset threshold can be determined according to the specific situation. The larger the value, the more shortlisted electronic price tags, the more commodity information corresponding to the shortlisted electronic price tags can be received by the mobile terminal, and the more convenient it is for users to compare similar commodities; the smaller the value, the fewer shortlisted electronic price tags, the less commodity information corresponding to the shortlisted electronic price tags received by the mobile terminal, the smaller the corresponding base station data processing burden, and the less data traffic consumed by the mobile terminal. Specifically, the base station can obtain the product information corresponding to the electronic price tag by monitoring the broadcast containing the corresponding product information sent by the electronic price tag, or directly obtain the product information corresponding to the electronic price tag from the electronic price tag server, or obtain the product information corresponding to the electronic price tag by other means. This embodiment does not limit the specific method for the base station to obtain the product information corresponding to the electronic price tag.

[0107] In one embodiment, if the distance between the electronic price tag and the mobile terminal is less than a preset threshold, the step of sending the commodity information corresponding to the electronic price tag to the mobile terminal includes:

[0108] Step S231: If the distance between the electronic price tag and the mobile terminal is less than a preset threshold for a period of time exceeding a preset time, the commodity information corresponding to the electronic price tag is sent to the mobile terminal.

[0109] In this embodiment, if the distance between the electronic price tag and the mobile terminal is less than the preset threshold for a duration exceeding the preset time, the product information corresponding to the electronic price tag is sent to the mobile terminal, which can effectively filter out the electronic price tags corresponding to the products that the user is interested in, so that only the product information corresponding to the products that the user is interested in is sent to the user, and the product information is accurately sent, which saves the user's time to read the product information while reducing the data traffic consumption of the mobile terminal. Among them, the value of the preset time can be determined according to the specific situation. The smaller the value, the more shortlisted electronic price tags, the more product information corresponding to the shortlisted electronic price tags can be received by the mobile terminal, and the more convenient it is for the user to learn more about the product information; the larger the value, the fewer shortlisted electronic price tags, the less product information corresponding to the shortlisted electronic price tags received by the mobile terminal, the smaller the corresponding base station data processing burden, the less data traffic consumed by the mobile terminal, and the more targeted the product information received by the mobile terminal, which can save the user more time to read the product information.

[0110] For example, the preset time length is set to 3 seconds, that is, if a user stays near a product for more than 3 seconds, the user is considered to be interested in the product. When the base station determines that the distance between the electronic price tag and the mobile terminal is less than the preset threshold for more than 3 seconds, the product information corresponding to the electronic price tag is sent to the mobile terminal. The accurate sending of the product information can be achieved.

[0111] In the above implementation, by receiving a binding request sent by a mobile terminal and binding with the mobile terminal; obtaining the location information of the electronic price tag and the mobile terminal; if the distance between the electronic price tag and the mobile terminal is less than a preset threshold, the product information corresponding to the electronic price tag is sent to the mobile terminal, so that the mobile terminal can display part or all of the content of the product information. The product information corresponding to the electronic price tag near it can be displayed on the mobile terminal, making the product information displayed on the electronic price tag easier to view.
