Abstract

A mobile phone has a camera as part of an image recording device with display facility. A device is provided for scanning a recorded image in accordance with a barcode and to display a recovered barcode on the display device.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Mobiltelefon gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1.The The invention relates to a mobile telephone according to the preamble of the claim 1.

Solche Mobiltelefone beziehungsweise Video-Handys sind praktisch aus dem täglichen Leben nicht mehr wegzudenken. Sie werden für vielseitige Applikationen eingesetzt, die nicht unbedingt kommunikationsspezifisch sind.Such Mobile phones or video phones are practically from the daily Life is indispensable They are for versatile applications used, which are not necessarily communication-specific.

So wird es immer interessanter Informationen, beispielsweise über ein auf einem Plakat dargestelltes Produkt oder sonst wie sichtbare Gegenstände, mit einem Mobiltelefon zu erfassen. Diese Information kann auch beispielsweise beim Einsteigen in einen Zug die Zug- oder Wagennummer sein.So It is getting more and more interesting information, for example about one Product displayed on a poster or otherwise visible objects to capture with a mobile phone. This information can also for example, when boarding a train the train or car number be.

Es gibt die Möglichkeit Transponder für Near Field Communication (NFC) an den Produkten anzubringen und das Mobiltelefon mit einem entsprechenden Abfragegerät auszustatten.It gives the opportunity Transponder for Install Near Field Communication (NFC) products and equip the mobile phone with an appropriate interrogator.

Eine weitere Möglichkeit ist es, Barcodes anzubringen und mit einem eingebauten Barcodeleser diese Information auszulesen. Der Barcode beziehungsweise Strichcode ist eine maschinenlesbare Schrift, die aus verschieden breiten Strichen und Lücken besteht. Diese kann über optische Abtaster, so genannte Strichcodelesegeräte (oder Barcodelesegerät, umgangssprachlich auch Scanner) maschinell gelesen und in einer EDV weiterverarbeitet werden.A another possibility is to install barcodes and with a built-in barcode reader To read information. The barcode or barcode is a machine-readable font made of different widths and gaps consists. This can over optical scanners, so-called bar code readers (or barcode readers, colloquially also scanners) read by machine and further processed in a computer become.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, die Informationsübertragung auf das Handy zu verbessern.Of the Invention is based on the object, the information transfer to improve the phone.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die im Patentanspruch 1 angegebenen Merkmale gelöst.These The object is achieved by the achieved in claim 1 features.

Im Folgenden wird die Erfindung an Hand eines Ausführungsbeispieles näher beschrieben.in the The invention will be described in more detail below with reference to an exemplary embodiment.

Die Erfindung geht aus von einem Mobiltelefon mit einer Kamera als Teil einer Bildaufnahmeeinrichtung, und mit einer Anzeigeeinrichtung. Diese Bildaufnahmeeinrichtung kann unter Verwendung von an sich bekannten Bild-Verarbeitungstechniken einen Barcode lesen.The Invention is based on a mobile phone with a camera as part an image pickup device, and a display device. This image pickup device can be used by itself known image processing techniques read a barcode.

Solche Geräte werden auch als Video-Handys bezeichnet. Es ist für die Erfindung von untergeordneter Bedeutung ob Einzelbilder oder Bildserien gemacht werden.Such equipment are also referred to as video phones. It is for the invention of subordinate importance whether individual images or image series made become.

Erfindungsgemäß wird nach der Aufnahme eines Bildes automatisch oder auf Grund eines Benutzerkommandos das Bild nach einem Barcode gescannt beziehungsweise durchsucht und ein erkannter Strichcode auf der Anzeigeeinrichtung dargestellt. Die Anzeige erfolgt hierbei vorzugsweise in alphanumerischer Darstellung, wobei die Bildaufnahmeeinrichtung als Barcode-Leser fungiert. Daneben ist optional die Anzeige als Strichmuster möglich.According to the invention recording an image automatically or on the basis of a user command Scanned or searched the image for a barcode and a recognized bar code is displayed on the display device. The Display is preferably carried out in alphanumeric representation, wherein the image pickup device functions as a barcode reader. Next to it is optional the display as a bar pattern possible.

Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Mobiltelefon wird parallel zum Auslösen einer Bilderfassung, vereinfacht gesagt dem „Fotografieren", das Bild immer nach Barcodes durchsucht.at the mobile phone according to the invention is parallel to the trigger an image acquisition, in simple terms the "photographing", the image always after Search barcodes.

Wird ein solcher Barcode erkannt, wird dieser auf der Anzeigeeinrichtung dargestellt oder es wird bei einer alternativen Ausführung der Erfindung automatisch eine vorbestimmte Funktion ausgeführt. Dies wäre ähnlich zu der Funktion von Kopierern, die erkennen, dass ein Geldschein kopiert werden soll und in diesem Fall den Kopiervorgang sperren.Becomes If such a barcode is detected, it will be displayed on the display represented or it is in an alternative embodiment of Invention automatically executed a predetermined function. This would be similar to the function of copiers that recognize that a bill copied should be and in this case block the copy process.

Eine vorbestimmte Aktion könnte die Wahl einer durch den Barcode übertragenen Telefonnummer oder die Einwahl in ein über den Barcode bekannt gegebenen Mobilfunk-Netzes sein. Weitere Funktionen können Bestellvorgänge für die mit einem entsprechenden Strichcode versehene Artikel sein Bei diesen Barcodes kann es sich auch um zweidimensionale Barcodes handeln.A predetermined action could the choice of a telephone number transmitted by the barcode or the dial in over be the barcode announced mobile network. More functions can order processes for the be provided with a corresponding bar code articles in these Barcodes can also be two-dimensional barcodes.

Bei einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung wird der gescannte Strichcode in alpha-numerische Zeichen übersetzt beziehungsweise umgesetzt und in dieser Form auf der Anzeigeeinrichtung dargestellt.at In a further development of the invention, the scanned bar code translated into alpha-numeric characters or implemented and in this form on the display device shown.
