Description

Information management system and method for goods with unique identification information

[0001] The present invention relates to an information management system and method for goods having unique identification information, and more particularly, to an information management system and method capable of ensuring the reliability of various information processing processes for goods having unique identification information by determining whether there is a history of exposure of the unique identification information of the goods having unique identification information.

[0002] Recently, with the popularization of social services online, transactions in online securities in the form of products, services, and currency certificates are actively taking place.

[0003] Moreover, online securities such as these contain unique identification information, which helps prevent duplicate use and transaction fraud.

[0004] However, in the conventional online securities issuance and distribution system, where transactions are primarily conducted in the form of electronic messages, various information, including identification information, from the original purchaser is easily exposed and confirmed, so there is a problem that a single identification information, etc. exposed through transactions and transmission, can be owned by multiple owners, leading to duplication and reuse.

[0005] In other words, the existing online securities issuance and distribution system cannot 100% guarantee the reliability of transactions because there is no way to determine whether online securities are being used. Therefore, there is a problem in that it is impossible to reliably process transactions such as cancellations upon request for cancellation of transactions after the seller sells online securities, or transactions for resale and transfer to other buyers and users.

[0006] Therefore, a method to solve these problems is required.

[0007] The present invention is an invention devised to solve the problems of the above-described prior art, and has the purpose of managing in real time information such as creation, storage, transmission, management, inquiry, modification, exposure, confirmation, and use of unique identification information for goods having unique identification information, and thereby improving and providing information provision and transaction processes.

[0008] The tasks of the present invention are not limited to the tasks mentioned above, and other tasks not mentioned will be clearly understood by those skilled in the art from the description below.

[0009] In order to achieve the above-described purpose, the information management system of a product having unique identification information of the present invention includes a request identification unit that receives and identifies an information processing request transmitted by a user terminal owned by a user for any product having unique identification information, an information processing unit that performs information processing corresponding to the content of the information processing request identified by the request identification unit, an information transmission unit that transmits the result processed by the information processing unit to the user terminal, and a product information storage unit that stores related information of the product having unique identification information and updates and reflects the result processed by the information processing unit.

[0011] And the information processing unit may include a product information processing module that processes the product information inquiry request, a unique identification information processing module that processes the unique identification information inquiry request, an owner information processing module that processes the owner confirmation request, and an ownership transfer processing module that processes the ownership transfer procedure.

[0012] In addition, the information management method of the present invention for a product having unique identification information to achieve the above-described purpose includes a step (a) in which a request identification unit of an operation server receives an information processing request transmitted by a user terminal owned by a user for a product having any unique identification information, a step (b) in which the request identification unit identifies the information processing request, a step (c) in which the information processing unit of the operation server performs information processing corresponding to the content of the information processing request identified by the request identification unit, a step (d) in which the information transmission unit of the operation server transmits the result processed by the information processing unit to the user terminal, and a step (e) in which the product information storage unit of the operation server updates and reflects the result processed by the information processing unit in the related information of the product having unique identification information that has been previously stored.

[0013] At this time, the information processing request may be any one of a product information inquiry request requesting details of product information for the goods having the unique identification information, a unique identification information inquiry request requesting details of unique identification information included in the goods having the unique identification information, an owner confirmation request requesting confirmation of the owner of the goods having the unique identification information, or an ownership transfer processing request requesting processing of the ownership transfer procedure for the goods having the unique identification information.

[0014] And the step (c) may include at least one of the following steps: (c1) in which, if the request identification unit identifies the information processing request as the product information inquiry request in the step (b), the product information processing module of the information processing unit performs a procedure for inquiry of product information for the goods having the unique identification information; (c2) in which, if the request identification unit identifies the information processing request as the unique identification information inquiry request in the step (b), the unique identification information processing module of the information processing unit processes a procedure for inquiry of details of unique identification information included in the goods having the unique identification information; and (c3) in which, if the request identification unit identifies the information processing request as the ownership transfer processing request in the step (b), the ownership transfer processing module of the information processing unit processes a procedure for transferring ownership of the goods having the unique identification information.

[0015] Here, the step (c1) may include a step (c1-1) in which the product information processing module loads related information of a product having unique identification information that is the target of the product information inquiry request from the product information storage unit, a step (c1-2) in which the product information processing module inquires whether the unique identification information is exposed to the user terminal, a step (c1-3) in which the product information processing module receives a result of determining whether to expose the unique identification information through the user terminal, a step (c1-4) in which the product information processing module determines whether the user who sent the product information inquiry request and the owner of the product having unique identification information are the same when the exposure decision result received through the user terminal is determined to expose the unique identification information, and a step (c1-5) in which the product information processing module transmits details of product information on the product having unique identification information to the user terminal based on the exposure decision result received in the step (c1-3).

[0016] In addition, the step (c2) may include a step (c2-1) in which the unique identification information processing module loads related information of a product having unique identification information that is the target of the unique identification information inquiry request from the product information storage unit, a step (c2-2) in which the unique identification information processing module determines whether the user who sent the unique identification information inquiry request and the owner of the product having unique identification information match, and a step (c2-3) in which the unique identification information processing module transmits unique identification information details for the product having unique identification information to the user terminal when the user who sent the unique identification information inquiry request and the owner of the product having unique identification information match.

[0017] And the step (c3) above is a step (c3-1) in which the ownership transfer processing module loads the relevant information of the goods having unique identification information that is the target of the ownership transfer processing request from the goods information storage unit, a step (c3-2) in which the ownership transfer processing module compares and determines whether the user who sent the ownership transfer processing request and the owner of the goods having unique identification information match, a step (c3-3) in which the ownership transfer processing module determines whether the unique identification information of the goods having unique identification information that is the target of the ownership transfer processing request have a history of being searched by the user terminal, a step (c3-4a) in which the ownership transfer processing module transmits a notification that the transaction is not possible to the user terminal, and the If the ownership transfer processing module determines that the unique identification information of the goods subject to the ownership transfer processing request and having unique identification information has not been searched by the user terminal, the step (c3-4b) may be included for transferring the ownership of the goods subject to the ownership transfer processing request and having unique identification information to the target.

[0018] The information management system and method of goods having unique identification information of the present invention for solving the above-mentioned problem has the advantage of being able to accurately provide necessary information to a user terminal by storing and updating related information of goods having unique identification information in a goods information storage unit in real time.

[0019] In particular, the present invention has the advantage of being able to prevent transaction accidents such as fraud, duplication, loss, and unauthorized use by determining whether there is a history of exposure of the unique identification information when a transaction request for goods with unique identification information is made, and if there is a history of exposure, processing the transaction so that it is impossible, thereby ensuring the reliability of various information processing processes for goods with unique identification information.

[0042] Hereinafter, the specific technical contents to be implemented in the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the attached drawings.

[0043] The method for managing information on goods having unique identification information according to the present invention is performed through an operation server that provides a program or web service for managing information on goods having unique identification information stored in a storage medium, and can be driven by a processor of the operation server.

[0044] And the program or web service provided by the operating server can be output through a video output device such as a display module, and can provide visible information through a visualized graphical user interface on the operating server, a user terminal owned by the user who is the target of the service provision, etc.

[0045] In particular, information management programs or web services for goods with unique identification information can be installed on operating servers, user terminals, etc. using removable disks or communication networks, and information management methods for goods with unique identification information can be operated by operating servers, user terminals, etc. in various functional ways.

[0046] In other words, the present invention specifically realizes information processing by software through hardware.

[0047] Additionally, the operating server can be a physical server, an abstract concept called serverless on the cloud, or any other form of server implementation.

[0048] In addition, the user terminal is a concept that includes not only mobile terminals such as smartphones owned by the user, but also terminals such as POS and PCs, and is not limited to any one.

[0049] Hereinafter, a method for managing information on goods having unique identification information according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the attached drawings.

[0050] FIG. 1 is a diagram conceptually illustrating each component of a system for performing a method for managing information on goods possessing unique identification information according to one embodiment of the present invention. In the following description, symbols assigned to each component are based on this diagram.

[0051] Each component illustrated in FIG. 1 may be functionally and logically separated, and it will be readily apparent to an average expert in the art that this does not necessarily mean that each component is separated into a separate physical device or written in separate code.

[0052] As illustrated in FIG. 1, a system for performing a method for managing information on goods having unique identification information according to one embodiment of the present invention may be operated by an operation server (100), and such an operation server (100) may include a request identification unit (110), an information processing unit (120), an information transmission unit (130), and a goods information storage unit (140).

[0053] The request identification unit (110) is a configuration that receives and identifies an information processing request transmitted by a user terminal (10) owned by the user for goods for which the user has any unique identification information.

[0054] At this time, the goods having unique identification information refer to virtual goods that are provided to a user terminal (10) online and have value that allows the user to exchange them for specific products, services, etc. through the user terminal (10), and may include unique identification information for identification with other goods.

[0055] For example, a uniquely identifying item could be an online coupon that allows you to purchase or rent a specific product or service online or offline, or an online gift certificate with a cash equivalent. These uniquely identifying items can have a variety of values ​​and take various forms.

[0056] Additionally, the unique identification information granted to goods possessing unique identification information may be in various forms of information whose uniqueness can be confirmed through any identification means.

[0057] For example, unique identification information may be information that is uniquely assigned to a specific product and can be used to identify it, such as a QR code or barcode. Of course, information that can be used to identify it in various ways other than the methods listed above may also be used.

[0058] In addition, a user can transmit a desired information processing request to the request identification unit (110) of the operating server (100) via the user terminal (10) regarding goods for which he or she holds unique identification information. Details regarding such information processing requests will be described later.

[0059] At this time, the unique identification information-bearing good that is the subject of the information processing request transmitted via the user terminal (10) may be something owned by the user, but may also be something not owned by the user. In other words, any unique identification information-bearing good that is the subject of the information processing request may be designated.

[0060] The information processing unit (120) performs information processing corresponding to the contents of the information processing request identified by the request identification unit (110).

[0061] That is, the information processing unit (120) determines what information processing process is required for the information processing request transmitted by the user terminal (10) from the request identification unit (110), and performs the corresponding information processing process according to the determined result.

[0062] The information transmission unit (130) is arranged to transmit the result processed by the information processing unit (120) to the user terminal (10). That is, the user can receive the processing result for the information processing request transmitted by the user from the information transmission unit (130) and visually confirm it through the user terminal (10).

[0063] The product information storage unit (140) is provided to store information related to products with unique identification information. The information related to products with unique identification information may include core information such as product information and unique identification information regarding the products with unique identification information, as well as additional information such as price information, number of uses, recharge information, expiration date, place of use, and terms and conditions.

[0064] In addition, the goods information storage unit (140) can update and reflect the results processed by the above-described information processing unit (120) for goods having unique identification information.

[0065] For example, when the related information of a product having unique identification information is changed by the information processing unit (120), the processing result can be stored in real time to update the related information of the product having unique identification information to the most recent state.

[0066] FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating a method for managing information of goods having unique identification information according to one embodiment of the present invention, showing the types of information processing requests and the configuration for processing them.

[0067] As illustrated in FIG. 2, in this embodiment, the information processing request that the user can transmit to the request identification unit (110) may be any one of a product information inquiry request, a unique identification information inquiry request, an owner confirmation request, or an ownership transfer processing request.

[0068] A product information inquiry request is a request requesting the request identification unit (110) to transmit product information details for goods having unique identification information to the user terminal (10).

[0069] A request for unique identification information inquiry is a request to the request identification unit (110) to transmit details of unique identification information included in goods having unique identification information to the user terminal (10).

[0070] The owner verification request is a request requesting the request identification unit (110) to transmit information on who is the owner of the goods having unique identification information to the user terminal (10).

[0071] A request for transfer of ownership is a request to the request identification unit (110) to process the transfer of ownership of goods for which unique identification information is held.

[0072] And for this purpose, the information processing unit (120) may include a product information processing module (121), a unique identification information processing module (122), an owner information processing module (124), and an ownership transfer processing module (123).

[0073] The product information processing module (121) is provided to process a product information inquiry request among information processing requests, the unique identification information processing module (122) is provided to process a unique identification information inquiry request among information processing requests, the owner information processing module (124) is provided to process an owner confirmation request among information processing requests, and the ownership transfer processing module (123) is provided to process an ownership transfer procedure among information processing requests.

[0074] Details of the procedures handled by these will be described later, and the following will describe a method for managing information on goods having unique identification information performed through the information management system for goods having unique identification information of the present embodiment as described above.

[0075] FIG. 3 is a diagram showing the entire process of a method for managing information on goods having unique identification information according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0076] As illustrated in FIG. 3, an information management method for goods having unique identification information according to one embodiment of the present invention includes steps (a) to (e).

[0077] Step (a) is a process in which the request identification unit (110) of the operation server (100) receives an information processing request transmitted by a user terminal (10) owned by the user for goods for which the user has any unique identification information.

[0078] That is, in this process, the user transmits one of the information processing requests among a product information inquiry request, a unique identification information inquiry request, or an ownership transfer processing request to the request identification unit (110) through the user terminal (10) owned by the user.

[0079] Next, step (b) is the process in which the request identification unit (110) identifies the information processing request.

[0080] In this process, the request identification unit (110) identifies whether the information processing request received in the aforementioned step (a) is a product information inquiry request, a unique identification information inquiry request, an owner confirmation request, or an ownership transfer processing request.

[0081] Next, step (c) is a process in which the information processing unit (120) of the operation server (100) performs information processing corresponding to the content of the information processing request identified by the request identification unit (110).

[0082] FIG. 4 is a drawing showing a detailed process of step (c) in a method for managing information on goods having unique identification information according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0083] As illustrated in FIG. 4, in the present embodiment, step (c) may include at least one of steps (c1), (c2), and (c3).

[0084] Step (c1) is a process in which, when the request identification unit (110) in the aforementioned step (b) identifies the information processing request as a product information inquiry request, the product information processing module (121) of the information processing unit (120) performs a procedure for inquiry of product information details for goods having unique identification information.

[0085] Step (c2) is a process in which, if the request identification unit (110) in the aforementioned step (b) identifies the information processing request as a request for unique identification information inquiry, the unique identification information processing module (122) of the information processing unit (120) processes a procedure for inquiry of details of unique identification information included in goods having unique identification information.

[0086] Step (c3) is a process in which, if the request identification unit (110) in the aforementioned step (b) identifies the information processing request as a request for transfer of ownership, the ownership transfer processing module (123) of the information processing unit (120) processes the ownership transfer procedure for goods having unique identification information.

[0087] Below, the detailed processing procedures for each of steps (c1) to (c3) are described in detail.

[0088] FIG. 5 is a drawing showing a detailed process of step (c1) in a method for managing information on goods having unique identification information according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0089] As illustrated in FIG. 5, in this embodiment, step (c1) may include steps (c1-1) to (c1-5) in detail.

[0090] Step (c1-1) is a process in which the product information processing module (121) loads related information of a product having unique identification information that is the target of a product information inquiry request from the product information storage unit (140).

[0091] That is, through this process, the product information processing module (121) can obtain various related information about goods having unique identification information.

[0092] Step (c1-2) is a process in which the product information processing module (121) inquires whether unique identification information is exposed to the user terminal (10).

[0093] That is, the product information processing module (121) can inquire of the user terminal (10) as to whether to display the unique identification information assigned to the product having the unique identification information.

[0094] And step (c1-3) is a process in which the product information processing module (121) receives the result of the decision to expose unique identification information through the user terminal (10).

[0095] Step (c1-4) is performed when the product information processing module (121) determines that the exposure decision result received through the user terminal (10) exposes the unique identification information, and is a process for comparing and determining whether the user who sent the product information inquiry request and the owner of the product with the unique identification information are the same.

[0096] In this process, the product information processing module (121) determines whether the user who sent the product information inquiry request and the owner of the product with unique identification information are the same through the related information of the product with unique identification information.

[0097] In addition, step (c1-5) is a process in which the product information processing module (121) transmits product information details for goods having unique identification information to the user terminal (10) based on the exposure decision result received in step (c1-3).

[0098] That is, if the user terminal (10) inputs in step (c1-3) that the unique identification information for a product with unique identification information is not to be exposed, then in step (c1-5), the product information processing module (121) transmits product information for which the unique identification information is not exposed to the user terminal (10) for the product with unique identification information.

[0099] Product information without unique identification information may be provided even if it is determined that the user who sent the product information inquiry request and the owner of the product with unique identification information do not match.

[0100] In contrast, if the user terminal (10) inputs in step (c1-3) that the unique identification information for a product with unique identification information be exposed, in step (c1-5), the product information processing module (121) transmits the product information with the unique identification information exposed for the product with unique identification information to the user terminal (10).

[0101] In this way, if it is determined that the user who sent the product information inquiry request in step (c1-4) described above and the owner of the product with the unique identification information do not match, processing of the product information inquiry request is rejected, and this can be notified to the user terminal (10).

[0102] Meanwhile, in the case where unique identification information is exposed in step (c1), the product information processing module (121) processes the product so that subsequent transfer of ownership is impossible for the product having the unique identification information, and this is stored in the product information storage unit (140) so that the status can be updated.

[0103] This is to ensure reliability by preventing user-to-user transactions, such as transfer of ownership, for goods that have had their unique identification information exposed even once.

[0104] In other words, the present invention can manage the exposure history of unique identification information in real time for goods having unique identification information, thereby fundamentally preventing fraudulent acts such as transfer of ownership of goods having already been used.

[0105] In addition, goods with unique identification information can be handled in the same manner as gift certificates issued through this platform operated by the operating server (100) as well as gift certificates imported from external platforms.

[0106] In other words, the existence of a history of exposure to goods with unique identification information means that, regardless of the source, the goods have been viewed after the time of initial registration on this platform operated by the operating server (100).

[0107] Therefore, it is within the scope of this patent to trade goods with unique identification information imported from an external platform by registering them as gift certificates. However, if an identification number is searched after registration of goods with unique identification information imported from an external platform, they may be excluded from the transaction.

[0108] FIG. 6 is a drawing exemplarily showing how step (c1) is processed on software installed on a user terminal (10) in a method for managing information on goods having unique identification information according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0109] The goods with unique identification information shown in Fig. 6 are exemplified as being in the form of gift certificates issued to users online, as shown in (A) of Fig. 6.

[0110] A user may perform a product information inquiry request without exposing the unique identification information for a product having unique identification information, as in (B) of FIG. 6. In this case, only the information excluding the unique identification information among the related information for the product having the unique identification information may be displayed.

[0111] However, if a user performs a product information inquiry request to expose unique identification information for a product having unique identification information as in (C) of Figure 6, all relevant information including the unique identification information for the product having the unique identification information may be displayed.

[0112] FIG. 7 is a drawing showing a detailed process of step (c2) in a method for managing information on goods having unique identification information according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0113] As illustrated in FIG. 7, in this embodiment, step (c2) may include steps (c2-1) to (c2-3) in detail.

[0114] Step (c2-1) is a process in which the unique identification information processing module (122) loads related information of goods having unique identification information that are the target of a unique identification information inquiry request from the goods information storage unit (140).

[0115] That is, through this process, the unique identification information processing module (122) can obtain various related information about goods having unique identification information.

[0116] Step (c2-2) is a process in which the unique identification information processing module (122) determines whether the user who sent the unique identification information inquiry request and the owner of the goods with unique identification information match.

[0117] In this process, the unique identification information processing module (122) determines whether the user who sent the unique identification information inquiry request and the owner of the unique identification information-holding goods are the same through the related information of the goods with the unique identification information.

[0118] If it is determined that the user who sent the unique identification information inquiry request according to this process and the owner of the goods with unique identification information do not match, processing of the unique identification information inquiry request is rejected, and this may be notified to the user terminal (10).

[0119] Step (c2-3) is a process in which, if the unique identification information processing module (122) determines that the user who sent the unique identification information inquiry request and the owner of the goods having unique identification information are the same, the unique identification information details for the goods having unique identification information are transmitted to the user terminal (10).

[0120] According to this process, the unique identification information processing module (122) transmits the unique identification information assigned to the goods having the unique identification information to the user terminal (10).

[0121] Meanwhile, in step (c2), if unique identification information is exposed as in step (c1) described above, the unique identification information processing module (122) processes the goods for which the unique identification information is held so that subsequent transfer of ownership is impossible, and this is stored in the goods information storage unit (140) so that the status can be updated.

[0122] FIG. 8 is a drawing showing a detailed process of step (c3) in a method for managing information on goods having unique identification information according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0123] As illustrated in FIG. 8, in this embodiment, step (c3) may include steps (c3-1) to (c3-3), and steps (c3-4a) and (c3-4b) in detail.

[0124] Step (c3-1) is a process in which the ownership transfer processing module (123) loads related information of goods with unique identification information that are the subject of a ownership transfer processing request from the goods information storage unit (140).

[0125] That is, through this process, the ownership transfer processing module (123) can obtain various related information about goods having unique identification information.

[0126] Step (c3-2) is a process in which the ownership transfer processing module (123) determines whether the user who sent the ownership transfer processing request and the owner of the goods with unique identification information match.

[0127] If it is determined that the user who sent the ownership transfer processing request according to this process and the owner of the goods for which unique identification information is held do not match, the processing of the ownership transfer processing request is rejected, and this can be notified to the user terminal (10).

[0128] Step (c3-3) is a process for determining whether the unique identification information of the unique identification information-bearing item that is the subject of the ownership transfer processing request has been searched by the user terminal (10) when the ownership transfer processing module (123) determines that the user who sent the ownership transfer processing request and the owner of the item with unique identification information are the same.

[0129] In other words, if the ownership transfer processing module (123) determines that the user who sent the ownership transfer processing request and the owner of the goods with unique identification information are the same, the next procedure is to determine whether the unique identification information assigned to the goods with unique identification information has already been searched.

[0130] And depending on the result of the judgment, step (c3-4a) or step (c3-4b) can be selectively performed.

[0131] Step (c3-4a) is when the ownership transfer processing module (123) determines that the unique identification information of the goods subject to the ownership transfer processing request has a history of being searched by the user terminal (10). In such a case, a notification that the transaction is not possible is sent to the user terminal (10).

[0132] And step (c3-4b) is when the ownership transfer processing module (123) determines that the unique identification information of the goods subject to the ownership transfer processing request and having unique identification information has not been searched by the user terminal (10). In such a case, the ownership of the goods subject to the ownership transfer processing request and having unique identification information can be transferred to the target.

[0133] At this time, the subject of the transfer of ownership may be a user terminal used by a user other than the user who currently owns the goods with unique identification information.

[0134] Referring again to FIG. 3, after step (c) as described above, step (d) is performed in which the information transmission unit (130) of the operation server (100) transmits the result processed by the information processing unit (120) to the user terminal (10).

[0135] That is, in this process, the user can check the results of the information processing request he / she requested through the user terminal (10).

[0136] Next, in step (e), a process is performed in which the product information storage unit (140) of the operation server (100) updates and reflects the results processed by the information processing unit (120) in the related information of the product with unique identification information stored in advance.

[0137] This process can be performed independently from step (d), and the relevant information of goods with unique identification information can be updated in real time and reflected in the information processing request process performed in the future.

[0138] As described above, preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention can be embodied in other specific forms, in addition to the embodiments described above, without departing from the spirit or scope thereof. Therefore, the above-described embodiments should be considered illustrative rather than restrictive, and accordingly, the present invention is not limited to the above description, but may be modified within the scope of the appended claims and their equivalents.
