Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of anti-counterfeiting technology. Background Technology

[0002] Livestock insurance is insurance that covers livestock such as cattle, horses, mules, donkeys, and pigs. It is a type of agricultural insurance that covers losses due to livestock death caused by disease or other accidents. Participating in livestock insurance allows for greater agricultural production security with a relatively small premium. However, current technology, which uses ear tags to number insured livestock, may lead to insurance fraud. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a reliable identification system for livestock insurance, characterized by including livestock ear tags, a camera, a barcode scanner, and a system server;

[0004] The livestock ear tag includes a male tag and a female tag; the male tag has a QR code I; the female tag has QR codes A and B; QR code B is printed on a substrate; QR code B is covered with a fragile material, which does not completely cover QR code B; the pattern of QR code B not covered by the fragile material and the pattern printed on the fragile material together constitute QR code A.

[0005] When the livestock ear tag is activated, the male tag is inserted through the livestock's ear and then fastened into the female tag; at the same time, several ear notches need to be cut along the edge of the livestock's ear; the livestock ear tag and the livestock's ear are photographed using a camera, and the obtained photo I is transmitted and stored on the server; the server also stores the association relationship between QR code I, QR code A, and QR code B;

[0006] When livestock dies during the breeding process and the farmer reports the death to the insurance company, the farmer takes a photo of the animal's ear. The resulting photo (Photo II) includes the complete earlobe of the animal, as well as the ear tag that has not been removed. The farmer uploads the photo and the information corresponding to QR code I to the insurance company's server. The server uses an image analysis and comparison system to determine that the animal's ear in Photo II is the same as the animal's ear in Photo I, and then initiates the claims process.

[0007] In the claims process, the scanning device scans QR code A and transmits the corresponding information to the server, handling the process in two ways: Case 1: If the server has not received the information corresponding to QR code B, the claims process continues. The scanning device needs to scan QR code B and transmit the corresponding information to the server to complete the claims. The server retains a record of receiving the information corresponding to QR code B. Case 2: If the server has received the information corresponding to QR code B, the claims process ends. It is worth noting that in Case 2 of this application, insurance fraud occurred. Therefore, the claims process ends. The server marks and alerts potential insurance fraud, allowing for investigation into whether the current claim is fraudulent and whether a previous claim regarding the ear tag was fraudulent.

[0008] Another technical solution of the present invention is: a trusted identification system for livestock insurance, characterized in that: it includes livestock ear tags, a camera, a barcode scanner, and a system server;

[0009] The livestock ear tags include male and female tags; the male tag has QR code I and QR code II; QR code II is printed on a substrate; QR code II is covered with a fragile material, which does not completely cover QR code II; the pattern of QR code II not covered by the fragile material and the pattern printed on the fragile material together constitute QR code I; the female tag has QR code A and QR code B; QR code B is printed on a substrate; QR code B is covered with a fragile material, which does not completely cover QR code B; the pattern of QR code B not covered by the fragile material and the pattern printed on the fragile material together constitute QR code A;

[0010] When the livestock ear tag is activated, the male tag is inserted through the livestock's ear and then fastened into the female tag; at the same time, several ear notches need to be cut along the edge of the livestock's ear; the livestock ear tag and the livestock's ear are photographed using a camera, and the obtained photo I is transmitted and stored on the server; the server also stores the association relationship between QR code I, QR code II, QR code A and QR code B;

[0011] When livestock dies during the breeding process and an insurance claim is filed, the farmer takes a photo of the animal's ear. Photo II shows the complete earlobe and the ear tag still attached. The farmer uploads the photo and the information corresponding to QR code I to the insurance company's server. The process is handled in two ways: Scenario 1: If the server has not received the information corresponding to QR code II, the server uses an image analysis and comparison system to determine that the animal's ear in photo II is the same as the animal's ear in photo I, and then initiates the claim process. The server retains a record of receiving the information corresponding to QR code II. Scenario 2: If the server has received the information corresponding to QR code II, the claim process ends.

[0012] In the claims process, the scanning device scans QR code A and transmits the corresponding information to the server, which is handled in the following two ways: Case 1: If the server has not received the information corresponding to QR code B, the claims process continues. The scanning device needs to scan QR code B and transmit the corresponding information to the server to complete the claims. The server retains a record of receiving the information corresponding to QR code B. Case 2: If the server has received the information corresponding to QR code B, the claims process ends.

[0013] Another technical solution of the present invention is: a trusted identification system for livestock insurance, characterized in that: it includes livestock ear tags, a camera, a barcode scanner, and a system server;

[0015] When the livestock ear tag is activated, the male tag is inserted through the livestock's ear and then the female tag is fastened in; at the same time, several ear notches need to be cut along the edge of the livestock's ear; the livestock ear tag and the livestock's ear are photographed using a camera, and the obtained photo I is transmitted and stored on the server; the server stores the association between QR code A and QR code B;

[0016] When livestock dies during the breeding process and the farmer reports the death to the insurance company, the farmer takes a picture of the animal's ear. The resulting picture (Photo II) includes the complete earlobe of the animal, as well as the ear tag that has not been removed. The farmer uploads the picture to the insurance company's server. The server uses an image analysis and comparison system to determine that the animal's ear in Photo II is the same as the animal's ear in Photo I, and then initiates the claims process.

[0017] In the claims process, the scanning device scans QR code A and transmits the corresponding information to the server, which is handled in the following two ways: Case 1: If the server has not received the information corresponding to QR code B, the claims process continues. The scanning device needs to scan QR code B and transmit the corresponding information to the server to complete the claims. The server retains a record of receiving the information corresponding to QR code B. Case 2: If the server has received the information corresponding to QR code B, the claims process ends.

[0021] When livestock dies during the breeding process and the farmer reports the death to the insurance company, the farmer takes a photo of the animal's ear. The resulting photo (Photo II) includes the complete earlobe of the animal, as well as the ear tag that has not been removed. The farmer uploads the photo and the information corresponding to QR code I to the insurance company's server. The server uses an image analysis and comparison system to determine that the animal's ear in Photo II is the same as the animal's ear in Photo I, and then initiates the claims process.

[0022] In the claims process, the scanning device scans QR code C and transmits the corresponding information to the server to complete the claims process.

[0023] Furthermore, the public and private labels have a QR code pasting area; this area is a recessed area; after the QR code substrate is pasted in this area, a film is applied over the QR code.

[0024] Furthermore, the image analysis and comparison system is an AI image analysis and comparison system stored on a server; the AI ​​image analysis and comparison system obtains a comparison model through sample training; the samples are photos of livestock ears at different stages of livestock growth; the livestock ears are cut with several ear notches before the first sampling.
