(Embodiment)
DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, embodiments for carrying out the present invention (hereinafter referred to as embodiments) will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the same element through the whole description of embodiment.

FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram of a translation system 100 according to the embodiment.
As schematically shown in FIG. 1, the translation system 100 according to the present embodiment includes a seal 11 on which a two-dimensional code QR indicating a URL is displayed, a seal 11 attached, and a host country with a host language 12. A display body 10 on which an image 13 is displayed, and a portable terminal 20 that can read the two-dimensional code QR and display the information resource S associated with the URL.
Specifically, as shown in FIG. 1, for example, a wall of a passage in Shinjuku Station is used as a display body 10, and the display of the station premises explained in Japanese (main language 12) is displayed on the display body 10 ( The main country image 13) is displayed.

  The display body 10 is provided with a seal 11 and a main country image 13 accompanied with the main country language 12. The display body 10 may be a paper medium on which a product catalog or a cooking menu is printed, or may be an electronic display medium such as a tablet or digital signage. The display body 10 may be a wall, a pillar, a floor, a ceiling, a beam, or the like that is a part of the structure.

The main language 12 is, for example, Japanese as an official language in Japan. Note that the main language 12 may be a language most used in an area where the display body 10 is used.
The main country image 13 may be a route map, a hall map, a floor map, a product catalog, a food and drink menu, etc., in addition to the station premises map shown in FIG.

  A two-dimensional code QR indicating a URL is printed and displayed on the sticker 11 attached to the display body 10. The two-dimensional code QR is a display-type code having a large amount of information per print area and having information in the horizontal and vertical directions. For example, a QR code (registered trademark) is adopted.

  The mobile terminal 20 is, for example, a smartphone or the like, and a two-dimensional code reader 21 that can read a two-dimensional code QR indicating a URL, and a communication device 22 for connecting to a public line such as the Internet by wired communication or wireless communication. And a monitor 23 for displaying an image, and a compass 24 for acquiring a direction in which the mobile terminal 20 faces. The portable terminal 20 may further include a GPS that acquires position information.

  Then, when the user U reads the two-dimensional code QR with the portable terminal 20 and obtains the URL, the portable terminal 20 accesses the URL on the Internet using the installed communication device 22 and receives the URL from the server 50. Is downloaded, and the information resource S is displayed on the monitor 23 of the mobile terminal 20 via a web browser or the like.

  The seal 11 is displayed with a two-dimensional code QR printed on the front side, and glue is attached to the back side. A release sheet (not shown) is temporarily attached to the glue of the seal 11. And when using the seal | sticker 11, the user U peels a peeling sheet from the seal | sticker 11, and affixes it on the desired location in the display body 10. FIG.

  The seal 11 may be affixed on the seal 11 in an overlapping manner. That is, the display body 10 may have a plurality of seals 11 that overlap each other. Thus, for example, by sticking the second seal 11 with the second two-dimensional code QR on the first seal 11 with the first two-dimensional code QR shown, The URL shown in the second two-dimensional code QR is changed to the URL shown in the first two-dimensional code QR without changing the contents of the information resource S related to the URL shown in the first two-dimensional code QR. By storing the information resource S related to the URL indicated in the second two-dimensional code QR in the database DB of the server 50, the content displayed on the mobile terminal 20 can be changed. Note that the first two-dimensional code QR is not pasted on the first seal 11 on which the first two-dimensional code QR is shown, and the first two-dimensional code QR is not attached. The content displayed on the mobile terminal 20 may be changed by changing the content of the information resource S related to the URL indicated by the code QR. That is, the content displayed on the portable terminal 20 is updated by updating the information resource S stored in the database DB of the server 50 associated with the URL indicated in the first two-dimensional code QR to a new one. Can change.

The information resource S has a plurality of types of foreign country images 42 corresponding to the primary country image 13 with the foreign country language 41 translated based on the primary country language 12. The information resource S is stored in a database DB in the server 50 on the Internet.
And, for example, when the main language 12 is Japanese, the information resource S is Italian, which is translated based on Japanese, in addition to the station floor plan explained in Arabic, which is translated based on Japanese. The station map described in the above and the station map described in English translated based on Japanese. Thus, if the main country image 13 is a station premises map, the other country image 42 also becomes a station premises map so as to correspond to it. Similarly, for example, if the main country image 13 is a food and drink menu, the other country image 42 also becomes a food and drink menu so as to correspond to it. The other country image 42 is not limited to the station premises map, and may include a route map, a hall diagram, a floor diagram, a product catalog, a food and drink menu, etc. corresponding to the main country image 13.

  If the main country image 13 is a station premises map, the other country image 42 should also be a station premises map so as to correspond thereto. For example, the other country language corresponding to the main country image 13 with the main country language 12 is used. The foreign country image 42 with 41 is stored in advance in the database DB in a state where it can be called as the information resource S.

Then, when the portable terminal 20 reads the two-dimensional code QR by the operation of the user U, the portable terminal 20 displays the foreign language menu 30 showing a list of a plurality of foreign languages 41 associated with the URL.
Since the different foreign languages 41 displayed in the foreign language menu 30 are associated with different URLs, the mobile terminal 20 can select one foreign language from the foreign language menu 30 in a state where the foreign language menu 30 is displayed. When the language 31 is selected, the foreign country image 42 with the foreign country language 41 corresponding to the selected foreign country language 31 is displayed.

  Therefore, the user U can read the two-dimensional code QR attached to the station premises map described in Japanese by the mobile terminal 20 and explain the station premises map described in Arabic or Italian. A station map or a station map described in English can be selected and displayed on the mobile terminal 20.

  With such a configuration, the translation system 100 is only required to attach one two-dimensional code QR to the display body 10 even if it corresponds to a plurality of types of foreign languages 41. There is no need to display a corresponding number of two-dimensional codes in order to support foreign languages, and the display area of the two-dimensional code QR attached to the display body 10 can be minimized.

(Application 1)
Next, application example 1 of this embodiment will be described.
Application Example 1 is to display the foreign country image 42 on the mobile terminal 20 by rotating the display body 10 in the direction in which the display body 10 faces.

  FIG. 2A is a diagram illustrating the user U and the mobile terminal 20 facing north with respect to the display body 10 facing south. FIG. 2B shows a state in which the other country image 42 is displayed on the mobile terminal 20. FIG. 3A is a diagram showing the user U and the mobile terminal 20 facing eastward with respect to the display body 10 facing west. FIG. 3B shows a state in which another country image 42 is displayed on the mobile terminal 20.

As described above, the mobile terminal 20 includes the compass 24 (see FIG. 1) that acquires the direction in which the mobile terminal 20 is facing.
When the mobile terminal 20 reads the two-dimensional code QR, the mobile terminal 20 acquires a direction from the mobile terminal 20 toward the display body 10, and rotates and displays the other country image 42 according to the direction.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 2A, the two-dimensional code QR is displayed in a state where the user U faces northward with respect to the display body 10 facing south, that is, the portable terminal 20 possessed faces northward. At the same time or after reading, the mobile terminal 20 acquires from the compass 24 built in the mobile terminal 20 that the mobile terminal 20 is facing, that is, northward.

  And as shown in FIG.2 (b), if a direction is acquired, the portable terminal 20 will rotate the other country image 42 according to the direction, and will display it on the monitor 23. FIG. That is, the other country image 42 is displayed with the upper side of the monitor 23 of the portable terminal 20 (the upper side in FIG. 2B) being north.

  On the other hand, for example, as shown in FIG. 3 (a), the user U faces eastward with respect to the display body 10 facing west, that is, the portable terminal 20 that the user U has faces eastward is two-dimensional. At the same time or after reading the code QR, the mobile terminal 20 acquires from the compass 24 built in the mobile terminal 20 that the mobile terminal 20 is facing, that is, eastward.

  And as shown in FIG.3 (b), if a direction is acquired, the portable terminal 20 will rotate the other country image 42 according to the direction, and will display it on the monitor 23. FIG. That is, the other country image 42 is displayed with the upper side of the monitor 23 of the portable terminal 20 (the right side in FIG. 3B) as the east.

  As described above, when the mobile terminal 20 reads the two-dimensional code QR, the mobile terminal 20 acquires the direction from the mobile terminal 20 toward the display body 10 and rotates the other country image 42 according to the direction to display the user U. Is easy to grasp the current position intuitively.

  The foreign country image 42 may be displayed in a rotated state corresponding to the direction acquired at the same time as the two-dimensional code QR is read, and may be fixed as it is. It may be rotated and displayed.

  In the application example 1, the example in which the foreign country image 42 is rotated and displayed according to the direction acquired from the compass 24 built in the mobile terminal 20 is shown, but the display body 10 and the mobile terminal are not limited thereto. The other country image 42 may be rotated and displayed based on the positional relationship or the posture relationship with 20. For example, a direction may be calculated from the position information of the display body 10 and the position information of the mobile terminal 20, and the other country image 42 may be rotated and displayed based on the direction.

(Application example 2)
Next, application example 2 of the present embodiment will be described.
In the application example 2, when the main country language 12 including the main country price 14 is included in the main country image 13, the main country price 14 that is a currency price related to the main country is converted based on the exchange rate, It is displayed on the portable terminal 20 at a foreign country price 43 that is a currency price related to another country. Here, a description will be given using an example of a food and drink menu displayed in Japanese. Here, a description will be made assuming that the main country price 14 is Japanese yen and the other country price 43 is dollars.

FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram of the translation system 100 that displays the main country price 14 at the other country price 43.
As shown in FIG. 4, the food and drink menu that is the display body 10 displays “sushi” that is part of the menu in Japanese that is the main language 12, and under that is the main country price 14. “1200 yen” is displayed. Similarly, “hamburg steak” which is a part of the menu is displayed, and “830 yen” which is the main country price 14 is displayed below the menu.

Here, although not shown in FIG. 4, when the portable terminal 20 reads the two-dimensional code QR by the operation of the user U, the foreign language menu 30 (showing a list of a plurality of foreign languages 41 associated with the URL). 1) is displayed.
Since the different foreign languages 41 displayed in the foreign language menu 30 are associated with different URLs, the mobile terminal 20 can select one foreign language from the foreign language menu 30 in a state where the foreign language menu 30 is displayed. When the language 31 (English) is selected, another country language 41 (English) corresponding to the selected other country language 31 (English) is displayed.
That is, when the user U reads the two-dimensional code QR with the mobile terminal 20, the foreign language menu 30 is displayed on the monitor 23 of the mobile terminal 20, and when one selected foreign language 31 (English) is selected, “Sushi” and “hamburger steak” are displayed after being translated from the national language 12 (Japanese) into the foreign language 41 (English) corresponding to the selected foreign language 31 (English).

  At this time, the main country price 14 (Japanese yen) displayed on the food / beverage menu which is the display body 10 is converted based on, for example, the exchange rate (1 dollar = 120 yen) acquired from the Internet, and is to be translated. It is displayed on the monitor 23 of the portable terminal 20 at the foreign country price 43 (dollar) related to the other country.

  Thereby, the user U can translate the contents of the food / drink menu via the mobile terminal 20 even if the food / drink menu is written in the main language 12 (Japanese) which cannot be understood, and at the same time, the price of the foreign country used The price of the food and drink menu can be grasped by 43 (dollars).

  In the application example 2, the food and drink menu has been described as an example of the display body 10, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and a product catalog or the like may be used. Further, as in application example 3 described later, the mobile terminal 20 includes a selected other country language 31 displayed on the monitor 23 provided in the mobile terminal 20 as main display language information, and the mobile terminal 20 receives the two-dimensional code QR. When read, the foreign country image 42 corresponding to the main country image 13 including the foreign country language 41 corresponding to the selected foreign country language 31 may be displayed.

(Application 3)
Next, application example 3 of the present embodiment will be described.
The application example 3 is different from the above-described embodiment in that the foreign language menu 30 (see FIG. 1) is not displayed. When the mobile terminal 20 reads the two-dimensional code QR by an operation by the user U, the application example 3 is different. The foreign country image 42 with the foreign country language 41 corresponding to the selected foreign country language 31 is displayed without displaying the foreign country language menu 30 (see FIG. 1) showing a list of a plurality of foreign country languages 41 associated with the URL. It is.
Specifically, the selected foreign country language 31 (for example, English) displayed on the monitor 23 is preliminarily provided in the mobile terminal 20 as main display language information. Then, when the two-dimensional code QR is read by the operation of the user U, the portable terminal 20 converts the URL associated with the two-dimensional code QR into a different URL depending on the selected other country language 31 (English). Subsequently, the mobile terminal 20 accesses different URLs depending on the selected other country language 31 (English), downloads the information resource S related to the converted URL from the server 50, and uses the information resource S as a web browser or the like. Is displayed on the monitor 23. That is, the foreign country image 42 with the foreign country language 41 (English) corresponding to the selected foreign country language 31 (English) is displayed.

  Therefore, for example, the user U simply reads the two-dimensional code QR attached to the station floor plan described in Japanese by the portable terminal 20 that is provided with the selected foreign language 31 (English) that is the main display language in advance. The station floor plan described in English can be displayed on the monitor 23 of the portable terminal 20 without the operation of selecting the selected foreign language 31 (English) from the foreign language menu 30.

  The preferred embodiment of the present invention has been described in detail above, but the translation system 100 according to the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and is within the scope of the gist of the present invention described in the claims. Various modifications and changes are possible.

  According to the present invention, the translation system 100 includes a sticker 11 on which a two-dimensional code QR indicating a URL is displayed, and a display body on which a sticker 11 is attached and a main country image 13 with a main language 12 is displayed. 10 and a portable terminal 20 that can read the two-dimensional code QR and display the information resource S associated with the URL, and the information resource S is accompanied by a foreign language 41 translated based on the main language 12 Since there are a plurality of types of foreign country images 42 corresponding to the main country image 13, even if there are a plurality of foreign languages 41 to be translated, it is not necessary to attach the number of two-dimensional codes QR corresponding to the number to the display body 10, For example, a single two-dimensional code QR can be used, and the display area of the two-dimensional code QR attached to the display body 10 can be minimized.
