DETAILED DESCRIPTION

Below, a clear and complete description will be given for the technical solution of embodiments of the present disclosure with reference to the figures of the embodiments. Obviously, merely some embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all embodiments thereof, are given herein. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is in fact merely illustrative and is in no way intended as a limitation to the invention, its application or use. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present disclosure without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.


The inventors have found that in all self-service schemes in supermarkets or libraries known to the inventors, specific self-service devices are used to scan bar codes and degauss tags on items, which may cause users to queue and impact the efficiency of the self-service when there are many users. If a terminal such as a mobile phone of a user is used to checkout or rent an item rather than the specific self-service device, a checkout verification scheme is also necessary to be designed to determine that the item is checkout or rented successfully to ensure security.


In view of this, a technical problem to be solved by the present disclosure is: how to improve the efficiency of a self-service checkout or rental of an offline item and ensure security.


In view of the above problem, the present disclosure provides an information processing method, which will be described below with reference to FIG. 1.



FIG. 1 is a flowchart of an information processing method according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1, the method of this embodiment comprises: steps S102 to S106.


In step S102, an identification of an offline item is obtained in response to a case that a terminal of a user scans an identification code on the item to successfully obtain a possession or use right of the item.


In some embodiments, in response to a case that the terminal of the user reads the identification code on the item to successfully obtain at least one of the possession, ownership, control and use right of the item, the identification of the item is obtained. A case of successfully obtaining of at least one of the possession, ownership, control and use right of the item can be understood as a case that the user purchases or rents the item, which can be paid or free.


For example, the user make a transactions by paying fees or virtual resources to obtain the possession, ownership, control and use right of the offline item. For example, the possession or ownership right of the item can be obtained by purchasing the item, and the use or control right of the item can be obtained by renting the item. The user can also obtain the use right of the offline item free of charge, such as the user borrow a book freely. The identification code, such as a QR code or bar code, can be provided on the offline item. The user can obtain the possession or use right of the item by scanning the identification code with the terminal. In the case of successfully obtaining the possession or use right of the item, information of the successfully obtaining may be sent from a payment system or item management system. Information in the identification code can comprise the identification of the item, or information in one-to-one correspondence with the identification of the item. Thus, the identification of the item can be determined according to the information of the identification code.


In step S104, an identification of a RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) tag on the item is determined according to the identification of the item.


The RFID tag can be set on the item, which can send a radio frequency signal. Information of the RFID tag can be obtained by decoding the radio frequency signal. The information of the RFID tag can comprise the identification of the RFID tag, which is used to uniquely identify the RFID tag. The information of the RFID tag can further comprise information corresponding to the item, which can be the same as the identification of the item, or can be in one-to-one correspondence with the identification of the item. For example, if the information corresponding to the item is in one-to-one correspondence with the identification of the item, the correspondence between the information corresponding to the item and the identification of the item can be stored in a database, and the correspondence between the identification of the RFID tag and the identification of the item can also be stored. A query request can be sent to the database. The query request may comprise: the identification of the item, and the identification of the RFID tag of the item returned from the database can be received.


In step S106, the RFID tag or a state corresponding to the RFID tag is modified according to the identification of the RFID tag to cause the item to be determined as having passed a checkout verification when the RFID tag is read.


For example, relevant information of the RFID tag is modified according to the identification of the RFID tag, to cause the item to be determined as having passed a checkout verification when the RFID tag is read. The relevant information of the RFID tag comprises, for example, at least one of the radio frequency signal sent from the RFID tag and a state corresponding to the RFID tag.


In some embodiments, a RFID writer is invoked to determine the RFID tag according to the identification of the RFID tag, and modify a signal sent from the RFID tag to a preset signal indicating that the item has passed the checkout verification or set the RFID tag to be invalid, to cause the item to be determined as having passed the checkout verification when the RFID tag is read.


The identification of the RFID tag can be sent to the RFID writer that can be used to write data to the RFID tag to modify the radio frequency signal sent from the RFID tag. For example, relevant information of the item in the RFID tag can be modified or custom data can be added into the RFID tag to modify the signal sent from the RFID tag to the preset signal indicating that the item has passed the checkout verification. In this way, when the RFID tag is read, it can be determined that the item has passed the checkout verification according to the preset signal. The RFID writer can also set the RFID tag to invalid. In this case, the RFID tag will not be recognized, and the item can directly pass through an anti-theft device, indicating that the item has passed the checkout verification. RFID writers can be disposed at multiple locations in a shopping cart or indoors to communicate with RFID tags.


In some embodiments, a state flag bit corresponding to the identification of the RFID tag is changed into a state indicating that the item has passed the checkout verification, so as to modify the state corresponding to the RFID tag to determine that the item has passed the checkout verification when the RFID tag is read. After the RFID tag is read, the item is determined as having passed the checkout verification by querying the corresponding status flag bit.


In the above embodiment, the identification code and the RFID tag can be provided on the item, and the user can successfully obtain the possession or use right of the offline item by scanning the identification code on the offline item with the terminal. After the information of successfully obtaining is received, the information of the RFID tag is determined according to the identification of the item carried in the information of successfully obtaining. The item is determined as having passed the check inspection when the RFID tag is read through modifying the RFID tag or the state corresponding to the RFID tag according to the information of the RFID tag. Because the user can purchase or rent the item using his/her own terminal without the need of a specific self-service device, the efficiency can be improved. Through setting or modifying the RFID tag, whether the item has passed the checkout verification can be determined, so as to ensure the safety of the item.


An information processing method according to other embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below with reference to FIG. 2. The information processing method of the present disclosure can be executed by an information processing device.



FIG. 2 is a flowchart of an information processing method according to other embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 2, in the case of modifying the RFID tag, after step S106, the method further comprises: steps S202 to S208.


In step S202, a RFID reader reads the RFID tag on the item and obtains indication information corresponding to the preset signal.


The RFID reader can be disposed on an anti-theft device at an exit of a supermarket or library or near the anti-theft device. The RFID reader reads the RFID tag, that is, after receiving the radio frequency signal sent from the RFID, it can decode and obtain the information of the RFID tag. In the case that the RFID tag is modified to send the preset signal, the RFID reader can obtain indication information corresponding to the preset signal.


In step S204, the RFID reader sends the indication information corresponding to the preset signal to an information processing device.


In step S206, the information processing device determines that the item has passed the checkout verification according to the indication information.


The information processing device can analyze the indication information corresponding to the preset signal. For example, the indication information comprises the modified relevant information of the item or the added custom data to indicate that the item has passed the checkout verification, so that the information processing device identifies that the item has passed the checkout verification.


In step S208, the information processing device sends a release instruction to an anti-theft device.


Step S208 is optional. For example, if the anti-theft device is not provided with an interceptor, the information processing device can send an alarm instruction to the anti-theft device only if the item has failed to pass the checkout verification, and does not send an instruction to the anti-theft device if the item has passed the checkout verification.


By changing the signal of the RFID tag, the method of the above embodiment enables the item successfully obtained by the user to pass the checkout verification smoothly, thereby improving the efficiency of self-service.


An information processing method according to still other embodiments of the present disclosure will be described below with reference to FIG. 3.



FIG. 3 is a flowchart of an information processing method according to still other embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 3, in the case of modifying a state corresponding to the RFID tag, after step S106, the method further comprises: steps S302 to S308.


In step S302, a RFID reader reads the RFID tag on the item and obtains information of the RFID tag.


The information of the RFID tag may comprise: an identification of the RFID tag and information corresponding to the item.


In step S304, the RFID reader transmits the information of the RFID tag to an information processing device.


In step S306, the information processing device determines that the state of the status flag bit corresponding to the identification of the RFID tag indicate that the item has passed the checkout verification.


The identification of the RFID tag, the identification of the item, the information corresponding to the item and the status flag bit can be stored in association with each other. The information corresponding to the item can be the identification of the item or information that is in one-to-one correspondence with the identification of the item.


In step S308, the information processing device sends a release instruction to an anti-theft device.


Step S308 is optional.


By modifying the status flag bit corresponding to the RFID tag, the method of the above embodiment enables the item successfully obtained by the user to pass the checkout verification smoothly, thereby improving the efficiency of self-service.

The information of the identification code on the item can be obtained through a code scanning device. The information of the identification code can be the identification of the item or can be information that is in one-to-one correspondence with the identification of the item. The information of the RFID tag can be read using a RFID reader.


In step S404, the information processing device stores the identification of the item, the information of the identification code, and the information of the RFID tag in a database in association with each other.


According to the identification code, the identification of the item can be determined. It is also possible to only store a correspondence between the identification of the item and the information of the RFID tag.


In step S406, a terminal of a user sends an acquisition request to the information processing device by scanning the identification code on the item.


The acquisition request may comprise: information of the identification code.


In step S408, the information processing device queries for detailed information of the item according to the information of the identification code and sends it to the terminal of the user.


The detailed information of the item may comprise, but is not limited to: at least one of the price, name, model of the item. A details page may be displayed on the terminal of the user.


In step S410, the information processing device receives acquisition confirmation information sent from the terminal of the user.


For example, the acquisition confirmation information comprises: an identification obtained online or an identification obtained offline. For example, the acquisition confirmation information is sent after the item is added to an online shopping cart or offline shopping cart. The user can choose to obtain an online item, in which case no verification is required and the item can be delivered to the user by means of distribution. The user can also choose to obtain an offline item, in which case the subsequent processes related to the RFID tag will be triggered.


In step S412, the information processing device generates an order according to the acquisition confirmation information.


If the acquisition confirmation information comprises the identification obtained online, the order comprises the identification obtained online, and if the acquisition confirmation information comprises the identification obtained offline, the order comprises the identification obtained offline. The order may further comprises the identification, price and other information of the item.


In step S414, the information processing device receives success-in-acquisition information in response to completing a payment of the order on the terminal of the user.


The success-in-acquisition information may comprise: information of the order, such as an order number, etc.


In step S416, the information processing device searches the order according to the information of the order, determines that the user has successfully obtained the possession or use right of the item, and obtains the identification of the item, in a case that the order comprises the identification obtained offline.


In step S418, the information processing device determines the identification of the RFID tag on the item according to the identification of the item.


In step S420, the information processing device modifies the RFID tag or a state corresponding to the RFID tag according to the identification of the RFID tag to cause the item to be determined as having passed a checkout verification when the RFID tag is read.


In some embodiments, if the user does not use the terminal to obtain the possession or use right of the item, or if the user does not obtain the possession or use right of the item successfully, the following steps are performed.


(1) The RFID reader reads the RFID tag on the item and obtains information of the RFID tag.


The information of the RFID tag may comprise: the identification of the RFID tag and the information corresponding to the item.


(2) The RFID reader transmits the information of the RFID tag to the information processing device.
