Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of anti-counterfeiting codes, and in particular to a method for generating a color anti-counterfeiting code. Background Art

[0002] A QR code, also known as a two-dimensional barcode, is most commonly known as a QR Code. QR stands for Quick Response. A QR code is a black and white graphic that records data symbols, arranged in a pattern across a two-dimensional plane. The code cleverly leverages the concept of "0" and "1" bit streams, fundamental to computer logic, using geometric shapes corresponding to binary numbers to represent textual and numerical information. This information is automatically processed through image input devices or photoelectric scanning equipment. It shares some common characteristics with barcode technology: each code system has its own unique character set; each character occupies a specific width; and it has certain checksums. It also features automatic recognition of different lines of information and handles rotational variations. A QR code has become extremely popular on mobile devices in recent years, storing more information and representing a wider range of data types than traditional barcodes.

[0003] Existing QR codes generally adopt a two-dimensional directional distribution and black and white structure, and the anti-counterfeiting effect needs to be further improved. Summary of the Invention

[0029] The following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. The detailed description of the following embodiments and the accompanying drawings are intended to illustrate the principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. That is, the present invention is not limited to the described embodiments and covers any modifications, replacements, and improvements to the parts, components, and connection methods without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

[0030] It should be noted that, unless there is any conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other.

[0031] The following will refer to the attached Figure 1 -Attached Figure 4 The present application is described in detail with reference to embodiments.

[0032] See attached Figure 1 As shown, a method for generating a color anti-counterfeiting code according to an embodiment of the present invention includes the following steps:

[0033] Step 1: Start the program and load the data for generating the anti-counterfeiting code into the program memory;

[0034] Step 2: Run the program and read string A in sequence according to the data content loaded in the memory;

[0035] Step 3: Generate a QR code image based on the string A and draw it on a temporary canvas;

[0036] Step 4: extracting a specific number of digits from the character string A, sequentially reading each bit of anti-counterfeiting data P in the specific number of digits, and obtaining the color of the anti-counterfeiting line and the number of line segments according to the value of the anti-counterfeiting data P;

[0037] Step 5: sequentially draw the anti-counterfeiting lines and the segment numbers at corresponding positions of the QR code image on the temporary canvas to obtain the color anti-counterfeiting code.

[0038] Attachment Figure 1 This is a flow chart of a method for generating a color anti-counterfeit code according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 In order to generate a color anti-counterfeiting code, first, start the program and load the data for generating the anti-counterfeiting code into the program memory. In this way, after the program is run, the data for generating the anti-counterfeiting code can be directly called to complete the generation of the anti-counterfeiting code. Then, run the program, read the character string A in sequence according to the data content loaded in the memory, generate a QR code image according to the character string A and draw it to a temporary canvas. In the embodiment of the present invention, the data for generating the anti-counterfeiting code generally includes the character string A, and the character string A is used to generate the QR code image, that is, the QR code (as shown in the attached figure). Figure 2 As shown in the middle), the data for generating the anti-counterfeiting code may include other information such as a checksum in addition to the character string A, which can improve the security of the data. Specifically, the data for generating the anti-counterfeiting code is not limited to other information other than the character string A, and can be set as needed. After generating the QR code image based on the character string A and drawing it to the temporary canvas, it is still a common QR code black and white anti-counterfeiting code, which cannot further improve the anti-counterfeiting effect. Therefore, the color anti-counterfeiting code generation method of the embodiment of the present invention then extracts the specific digit data from the character string A, reads each anti-counterfeiting data P in the specific digit data in turn, and takes out the color of the anti-counterfeiting line and the number of line segments according to the value of the anti-counterfeiting data P; that is, the embodiment of the present invention has inserted specific digit data (for example, it can be 8 digits, 16 digits, etc.) into the character string A, and by reading each anti-counterfeiting data P in the specific digit data, the color of the anti-counterfeiting line and the number of line segments are taken out according to the value of the anti-counterfeiting data P, thereby obtaining a color two-dimensional bar code and the corresponding number of segments (as shown in the attached figure). Figure 2 and attached Figure 3 Finally, the anti-counterfeiting lines and the number of segments are drawn in sequence on the corresponding positions of the QR code image on the temporary canvas (as shown in the attached figure). Figure 2 The 16-digit barcode shown is set on the left and right sides of the QR code image respectively, and the number of segments is set on the bottom side of the QR code image) to obtain the final color anti-counterfeiting code.

[0039] To sum up, the embodiment of the present invention generates a QR code image through a character string A, then inserts a specific number of digits of data into the character string A, uses the specific number of digits of data to generate a color two-dimensional barcode and a corresponding number of segments, and then obtains a color anti-counterfeiting code in the form of a combination of the QR code image, the color two-dimensional barcode and the corresponding number of segments, which greatly improves the anti-counterfeiting effect and has good practicality.

[0040] Furthermore, according to another embodiment of the present invention, the data used to generate the anti-counterfeiting code in step 1 is QR Code data in a txt format. A QR Code is a matrix two-dimensional code symbol that has the advantages of a one-dimensional barcode and other two-dimensional barcodes, such as large information capacity, high reliability, the ability to represent Chinese characters and images, and strong confidentiality and anti-counterfeiting properties. Furthermore, the txt format data is easy to read, load, and run.

[0041] Furthermore, according to another embodiment of the present invention, the specific bit data is 16-bit data. Figure 2 and attached Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the obtained 16-bit color two-dimensional barcode and the corresponding number of segments and the color anti-counterfeiting code formed with the two-dimensional code image. Figure 2 and attached Figure 3 The specific color is not shown in the figure, and the specific color can be determined according to actual needs, such as the attached Figure 3 Data 0 represents red, data 1 represents green, data 2 represents blue, and so on. To avoid tediousness, we will not go into details one by one.

[0042] Furthermore, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the anti-counterfeiting lines are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the QR code image. Figure 2 As shown, this can be more beautiful and easier to identify the direction.

[0043] Furthermore, according to another embodiment of the present invention, the number of segments is set at the bottom of the QR code image. Figure 2 As shown, this can be more beautiful and easier to identify the direction.

[0044] Furthermore, according to another embodiment of the present invention, the color security code generation method further includes: in step 1, after the program is started, determining whether the data for generating the security code has been loaded into the program memory, and if not, prompting the user to load the data. This can improve the user-friendliness and recognizability of the operation and enhance the efficiency of program operation.

[0045] Furthermore, according to another embodiment of the present invention, the specific digit data is set at the end of the string A. The specific digit data is used to store data for generating a color two-dimensional barcode and the corresponding number of segments. Therefore, its position needs to be fixed at a specific position in the string A to facilitate program recognition. When the specific digit data is set at the end of the string A, the QR code image is generated first, and then the color two-dimensional barcode and the corresponding number of segments are generated at the end of the string A. This has the advantage of being performed in sequence, which helps reduce the complexity of the operation, improves efficiency, and facilitates data acquisition and recognition.

[0046] Furthermore, according to one embodiment of the present invention, the color security code generation method further includes flipping, rotating, and setting the image height of the generated color security code. In this way, the generated color security code can be flipped, rotated, and set to the image height to ensure that the generated color security code faces the user in the correct direction.

[0047] Furthermore, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the number of the anti-counterfeiting lines corresponds to the number of the segments, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 2 As shown, there are 16 items in total.

[0048] The following is combined with Figure 4 Another embodiment of the present invention will be described.

[0049] As attached Figure 4 As shown, according to a method for generating a color anti-counterfeiting code according to an embodiment of the present invention, first open the file, start the program, and load the QRCode data for generating the anti-counterfeiting code into the program memory; then run the program and start the process of generating the color anti-counterfeiting code. After the program is started, it is determined whether the data for generating the anti-counterfeiting code is loaded into the program memory. If it is not loaded, the user is prompted to perform the loading operation. After the loading is completed, the data is read, and a QRCode image is generated based on the QRCode data and drawn to a temporary canvas; then, the color anti-counterfeiting lines corresponding to each number are generated based on the 16-digit number, and the 16-digit color digital information below the QRCode image is generated based on the 16-digit number. Then it is determined whether there is data that needs to be processed. If so, the above process is performed again. If there is no data that needs to be processed, the color anti-counterfeiting code is obtained.

[0050] To sum up, the embodiment of the present invention generates a QR Code image through QR Code data, and then uses specific bit data to generate a 16-bit color two-dimensional barcode and the corresponding number of segments, thereby obtaining a color anti-counterfeiting code in the form of a combination of the QR code image, the color two-dimensional barcode and the corresponding number of segments, which greatly improves the anti-counterfeiting effect and has good practicality.
