Please refer to FIG. 1, which is a schematic diagram showing a self-adaptive fair system 1000 according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. The self-adaptive fair system 1000 includes a mobile carrier 1, a processing unit 2 and a production station 3. The mobile carrier 1 is for selectively moving to or being moved to a first location P1. In the embodiment, the first location P1 is a market, which is only exemplary, and the present disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, the first location P1 can also be a sidewalk area or a hypermarket with a relatively high visitors flow.

Please refer FIGS. 1 to 3. FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram showing the mobile carrier 1 in an extended state according to the embodiment of the present disclosure. FIG. 3 is a schematic diagram showing the mobile carrier 1 in a closed state according to the embodiment of the present disclosure. In the embodiment, the mobile carrier 1 is a van truck, which is exemplary and is configured to move to the first location P1. The van truck (i.e., the mobile carrier 1) can include a main body 10 and a storage unit 11 disposed in the main body 10. The processing unit 2 is detachably disposed in the main body 10. In the embodiment, the processing unit 2 is a portable electronic device (such as a notebook), which is only exemplary, and the present disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, the processing unit 2 can also be a desktop computer, a smartphone or a tablet computer.

In the embodiment, the main body 10 is a truck body of the van truck, and the storage unit 11 is a display cabinet disposed in the truck body. For example, the storage unit 11 can be a storage cabinet with a plurality of partitions, which is movably disposed in the main body 10 through a slide rail or linkage mechanism. The storage unit 11 is movable relative to the main body 10 between a closed position shown in FIG. 3 and an extended position shown in FIG. 2. The storage unit 11 is configured to accommodate a first object S1, such that the first object S1 can be transported to the first location P1 and can be exhibited at the first location P1 through the mobile carrier 1.

Furthermore, during the moving process of the mobile carrier 1, the storage unit 11 can be at the closed position shown in FIG. 3 and does not protrude from the main body 10. As such, the storage unit 11 can be received in the main body 10 during the moving process, and collisions with foreign objects can be prevented. When the mobile carrier 1 arrives at the first location P1, the storage unit 11 can be at the extended position shown in FIG. 2 and protrudes from the main body 10. As such, the first object S1 can be exposed from the main body 10 and exhibited at the first location P1.

Please refer FIGS. 1 to 4. FIG. 4 is a functional block diagram of the self-adaptive fair system 1000 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure. The processing unit 2 is signally connected to a production station 3 and a server unit 5 through an internet 6. In the embodiment, the first object S1 is a shoe, and the production station 3 is a shoe factory for producing the shoe, both of which are exemplary, and the present disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, the first object S1 can be a piece of clothing, and the production station 3 can be a clothes factory for producing the piece of clothing. For another example, the first object S1 can be an article of sporting goods (such as a ball, a cap, a bag, a glove and a cushion), and the production station 3 can be a factory for producing the article of sporting goods. Furthermore, the mobile carrier 1 (such as the van truck) is configured for transporting the first object S1 (such as the shoe) produced by the production station 3 (such as the shoe factory) to the first location P1 (such as the market) to exhibit. Therefore, the mobile carrier 1 can be a transport tool independent from the production station 3 and located outside the production station 3.

The self-adaptive fair system 1000 can further include a positioning unit 4. The positioning unit 4 is coupled to the mobile carrier 1 and is for generating position information related to a location where the mobile carrier 1 is located. The position information related to the location where the mobile carrier 1 is located can be first position information related to the first location P1 or second position information related to a second location P2. Moreover, as shown in FIG. 1, the second location P2 can be a shopping street, which is exemplary, and the present disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, the second location P2 can also be a shopping plaza, a venue of a big event or an industrial park.

Specifically, the positioning unit 4 can be a global positioning system (GPS), which can generate the first position information or the second position information through a communications device 7 (such as an artificial satellite), but the present disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, the positioning unit 4 can be a mobile communication unit, which can generate the first position information or the second position information through the communications device 7 (such as a 3G mobile communication base station or a 5G mobile communication base station). Alternatively, the positioning unit 4 can be a wireless fidelity (Wi-Fi) unit, which can generate the first position information or the second position information through the communications device 7 (such as a wireless base station).

<Scenario 1—Single Consumer at the Same Location>

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, when the mobile carrier 1 moves to a first location P1 (such as the market), the storage unit 11 of the mobile carrier 1 can be extended outwardly from an inside of the main body 10 (FIG. 2), such that the first object S1 disposed in the storage unit 11 can be accessed by a first user U1 located at the first location P1. At this time, a seller 8 that moves with the mobile carrier 1 can explain to the first user U1 when the first user U1 accesses the first object S1 for selectively generating a first user design (which can be expressed through spoken language, graphical representation or written language). Take the first object S1 being a sample shoe as an example. When the sample shoe (i.e., the first object S1) is accessed or tried on by the first user U1, the seller 8 can further adjust the first user design, based on the sample shoe, according to an access or try-on experience result of the first user U1, such as the softness of the sole and the style of the shoe appearance. At the same time, the self-adaptive fair system 1000 provides the processing unit 2 (such as the notebook) to receive a first order related to the first user design inputted by the first user U1 and transmit the first order to the server unit 5 through the internet 6. Afterwards, the server unit 5 can generate first production information based on the first order, and transmit the first production information to the production station 3.

The production station 3 can produce a second object S2 based on the first production information which is generated according to the first order. As such, the self-adaptive fair system 1000 according to the present disclosure can generate the first user design based on the access or try-on experience result of the first user U1, and produce a customized product (i.e., the second object S2) based on the first order, which is related to the first user design.

In the embodiment, the first order includes a plurality of decoration codes related to decoration patterns of the first object S1, a plurality of color codes related to colors of the first object S1, a size code related to a body part size of the first user U1, or a physiological code related to a height and a weight of the first user U1. Take the sample shoe as an example. The first order can include a plurality of decoration codes related to vamp patterns of the sample shoe (i.e., the first object S1), a plurality of color codes related to colors of the shoe parts of the sample shoe, a size code related to a foot size of the first user U1, and a physiological code related to a body mass index (BMI) of the first user U1, all of which are exemplary, and the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

In the embodiment, the first production information includes a print file related to the plurality of decoration codes, a material file related to the plurality of color codes, or a molding parameter related to at least one of the size code and the physiological code. Take the sample shoe as an example. The first production information can include a print file related to the plurality of decoration codes which is further related to the vamp patterns, a material file related to the plurality of color codes which is further related to the colors of the shoe parts, and a molding parameter related to the size code which is further related to the foot size, all of which are exemplary, and the present disclosure is not limited thereto.

Furthermore, during communicating with the first user U1 at the first location P1, the self-adaptive fair system 1000 according to the present disclosure can further conduct an assessment analysis about consumer preference or geographic market for the same consumer. Please refer to FIGS. 1, 4 and 5.

Step 101: Receive the first position information.

Step 102: Obtain a first geographic market assessment report or a consumer preference assessment report related to the first location P1 based on the first order and the first position information.

Specifically, when the mobile carrier 1 arrives at the first location P1, the positioning unit 4 can generate the first position information (such as the latitude-longitude coordinate) related to the first location P1, and the processing unit 2 can transmit the first position information and the first order to the server unit 5. After receiving the first order (Step 100) and the first position information (Step 101), the server unit 5 can further analyze and obtain the first geographic market assessment report or the consumer preference assessment report related to the first location P1 based on the first order and the first position information (Step 102). In the embodiment, the server unit 5 can be a third-party platform, such as an application programming interface (API) of a software development company, and the present disclosure is not limited thereto. The server unit 5 can also be a cloud computing platform, such as Google Cloud Platform (GCP), Amazon Web Service (AWS), Microsoft Azure, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), etc.

<Scenario 2—Different Consumers at the Same Location>

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 4, after the production station 3 producing the second object S2 based on the first production information which is generated according to the first order, the second object S2 can be disposed in the storage unit 11 of the mobile carrier 1 (e.g., FIG. 2), or the second object S2 can be dealt by digital visualization and presented through the processing unit 2, such that the second object S2 can be accessed by a second user U2 at the same location (i.e., the first location P1). At this time, the seller 8 that moves with the mobile carrier 1 can explain to the second user U2 when the second user U2 accesses the second object S2 for selectively generating a second user design (which can be expressed through spoken language, graphical representation or written language). At the same time, the self-adaptive fair system 1000 provides the processing unit 2 to receive a second order related to the second user design inputted by the second user U2 and transmit the second order to the server unit 5 through the internet 6. Afterwards, the server unit 5 can generate second production information based on the second order, and transmit the second production information to the production station 3.

The production station 3 can produce a third object S3 based on the second production information which is generated according to the second order. As such, the self-adaptive fair system 1000 according to the present disclosure can generate the second user design according to the access or try-on experience result of the second user U2, and produce another customized product (i.e., the third object S3) based on the second order, which is related to the second user design.

Furthermore, during communicating with the first user U1 and the second user U2 at the first location P1, the self-adaptive fair system 1000 according to the present disclosure can further conduct a consumer preference assessment analysis related to the first location P1 for different consumers at the same location. Please refer to FIGS. 1, 4 and 7. FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing the self-adaptive fair system 1000 conducting the consumer preference assessment analysis related to the first location P1 for different consumers at the same location according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, which includes steps as follows.

Step 300: Receive the first order.

Step 301: Receive the second order.

Step 302: Receive the first position information.

Step 303: Obtain a consumer preference assessment report related to the first location P1 based on the first order, the second order and the first position information.

Specifically, when the mobile carrier 1 arrives at the first location P1, the positioning unit 4 can generate the first position information (such as the latitude-longitude coordinate) related to the first location P1, and the processing unit 2 can transmit the first position information, the first order and the second order to the server unit 5. After receiving the first order (Step 300), the second order (Step 301) and the first position information (Step 302), the server unit 5 can further analyze and obtain the consumer preference assessment report related to the first location P1 based on the first order, the second order and the first position information (Step 303). In the embodiment, the consumer preference assessment report would try to find the similarities between different consumers in the same geographic region.

The mobile carrier 1 can selectively move to a second location P2 different from the first location P1, such that the second object S2 accordingly exhibited at the second location P2 can be accessed by a second user U2 at the second location P2. At this time, the seller 8 that moves with the mobile carrier 1 can explain to the second user U2 when the second user U2 accesses the second object S2 or the first object S1 for selectively generating a second user design (which can be expressed through spoken language, graphical representation or written language). At the same time, the self-adaptive fair system 1000 provides the processing unit 2 to receive a second order related to the second user design inputted by the second user U2 and transmit the second order to the server unit 5 through the internet 6. Afterwards, the server unit 5 can generate second production information based on the second order, and transmit the second production information to the production station 3.

The production station 3 can produce a third object S3 based on the second production information which is generated according to the second order. As such, the self-adaptive fair system 1000 according to the present disclosure can generate the second user design according to the access or try-on experience result of the second user U2, and produce another customized product (i.e., the third object S3) based on the second order, which is related to the second user design.
