detailed description

FIG. 1 is a hardware architecture diagram of a short-range wireless communication system 100 according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The short-range wireless communication system 100 is applied between a smart luggage 1 and a mobile terminal 3 . The smart luggage case 1 can carry out short-range wireless communication (Near Field Communication, referred to as NFC). The smart luggage 1 can also perform short-distance wireless communication with at least one item 2 . Wherein, the effective range of the short-range wireless communication is less than 10 centimeters. The mobile terminal 3 may be a smart phone, a tablet computer, a multimedia player, and the like.

Please also refer to FIG. 2 , the smart luggage case 1 includes a housing 11 and a first NFC reader 12 fixed outside the housing 11 . The first NFC reader 12 includes a reading unit 120 and a storage unit 121 . The reading unit 120 is used every time when an item 2 with an NFC tag including the first identification information approaches the smart luggage case 1 (such as when the user puts an item 2 into the smart luggage case 1) , read the first identification information in the NFC tag, and then store the read first identification information in the storage unit 121 . It can be understood that different items 2 are affixed with different NFC tags, that is, different items 2 correspond to different first identification information, so that the user can judge the items currently put into the smart luggage case 1 according to the first identification information 2.

The mobile terminal 3 is provided with a second NFC reader 30 and an output unit 31 . The second NFC reader 30 is used to read the first identification information stored in the storage unit 121 of the first NFC reader 12 when the mobile terminal 3 approaches the smart luggage 1 . The output unit 31 is used to output the first identification information read by the first NFC reader 12, so that the user can know the items 2 (i.e. put Item 2) in the smart suitcase 1). In this embodiment, the output unit 31 is a display screen or a microphone, that is, the first identification information can be known by the user through display or voice output.

Of course, the first NFC reader 12 on the smart luggage 1 itself carries the second identification information associated with the user of the smart luggage 1 . After the smart luggage case 1 is checked, the train station or airport staff can judge the user of the smart luggage case 1 according to the second identification information of the first NFC reader 12 itself. Specifically, train station or airport staff can bring their mobile terminal 3 close to the smart luggage 1 . At this time, the second NFC reader 30 can also be used to read the second identification information of the first NFC reader 12 when the mobile terminal 3 approaches the smart luggage 1 . The output unit 31 is also used to output the second identification information read by the second NFC reader 30, so that it can be known by train station or airport staff.

Further, the second NFC reader 30 on the mobile terminal 3 itself also carries third identification information. The smart luggage case 1 also includes a fingerprint collector 13 located outside the casing 11 . The first NFC reader 12 is also used to read the third identification information of the second NFC reader 30 when the mobile terminal 3 approaches the smart luggage case 1, and when the read third identification information When it is consistent with a preset identification information (that is, the mobile terminal 3 is carried by the user authorized to use the smart luggage 1), further determine the received signal strength value (Received Signal Strength Indicator, referred to as RSSI). The fingerprint collector 13 is used to collect the fingerprint information of the user to form a fingerprint image when the received signal strength value is greater than a predetermined value, and compare the fingerprint image with a database of fingerprint images of authorized users to obtain Determine whether it matches. If so, the fingerprint collector 13 judges that the user is authorized to use the smart luggage case 1, and then controls the smart luggage case 1 to unlock. Thereby, if the user authorized to use the smart luggage 1 wants to open the smart luggage 1, the mobile terminal 3 must be close enough to the smart luggage 1, so that the smart luggage 1 can It will trigger the next stage of authentication (ie, fingerprint authentication), thereby improving the security of using the smart luggage 1 .

In this embodiment, the smart luggage 1 further includes a coordinate positioning unit 14 and a signal sending unit 15 . The coordinate positioning unit 14 and the signal sending unit 15 can be disposed outside or inside the casing 11 . The coordinate positioning unit 14 is used to detect the current location information of the smart luggage case 1 in real time. Wherein, the coordinate positioning unit 14 may be a Global Positioning System (Global Positioning System, GPS), an Assisted Global Satellite Positioning System (Assisted Global Positioning System) Positioning System, AGPS) or a combination of both. The location information may be longitude information and latitude information, or may be a place name corresponding to the longitude information and latitude information. The signal sending unit 15 is used to send the location information detected by the coordinate positioning unit 14 to the mobile terminal 3, so that the user can know whether the smart luggage case 1 has arrived at a predetermined place to be checked. Wherein, the signal sending unit 15 can send the location information to the mobile terminal 3 through a WiFi wireless network or a 3G wireless network.

In this embodiment, the smart luggage 1 includes a charging interface 16 arranged outside the casing 11, and an external power source can charge the battery (not shown) of the smart luggage 1 through the charging interface 16. , so that the battery can provide the required electric energy for the first NFC reader 12 , the fingerprint collector 13 , the coordinate positioning unit 14 and the signal sending unit 15 . Wherein, the charging interface 16 may be a USB charging interface or a wireless charging interface. Wherein, when the charging interface 16 is a USB charging interface, the mobile terminal 3 can be connected to the USB charging interface, thereby utilizing the battery of the mobile terminal 3 to charge the battery of the smart luggage case 1 . In another embodiment, the smart luggage case 1 is provided with a battery holder (not shown) outside the housing 11 , which can be electrically connected with the battery inserted into the battery holder.

Those of ordinary skill in the art should recognize that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention, rather than to limit the present invention. Alterations and variations are within the scope of the claimed invention.
