In order to enable the reviewing committee to better understand the technical contents of the present invention, the preferred embodiments are described below.

Please refer to FIG. 1 for a schematic diagram of the use environment of the time recording correction method according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 1, in the embodiment of the present invention, the time recording correction method of the present invention is applicable to a server system 1, wherein the user terminal computer 90 can be connected to the server system 1 through the network N; The system 1 is for the user to upload and store the photo file, and at the same time correct the recording time record of the uploaded photo file. In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the client computer 90 can be a desktop computer, a notebook computer, a tablet computer, or a smart phone, but the invention is not limited thereto.

In the first embodiment of the present invention, the server system 1 includes a file receiving module 10, a time information obtaining module 20, a verification module 30, a computing module 40, a calibration module 50, and a memory 60. It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, the foregoing modules may be configured as a hardware device, a software program, a firmware, or a combination thereof, or may be configured by a circuit loop or other appropriate type; In addition to the individual type configuration, the group can also be combined with the type configuration. In a preferred embodiment, each module is stored in a software program on a memory, and each module is executed by a processor (not shown) in the server system 1 to achieve the functions of the present invention. In addition, the present embodiment is merely illustrative of preferred embodiments of the present invention, and in order to avoid redundancy, all possible combinations of variations are not described in detail. However, those of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that the various modules or components described above are not necessarily required. In order to implement the invention, other well-known modules or elements of more detail may also be included. Each module or component may be omitted or modified as needed, and no other modules or components may exist between any two modules.

Please refer to FIG. 1 to FIG. 5 together. FIG. 2 is a flow chart showing the steps of the time recording correction method according to the first embodiment of the present invention. The following will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 1 and FIG. 3 to FIG. The steps of the correction method are recorded, and the functions implemented by the respective modules in the server system 1 are also explained. It should be noted that the time recording correction method disclosed in the present invention is described below by taking the server system 1 as an example, but the method is not limited to the foregoing server system 1.

Since the camera device without the Internet function cannot update the time information set by the Internet, after a period of use, the time set by the camera device may not match the real time, and the user may use the camera device. When the photo file is taken, the recorded time record will not match the real time. The time recording correction method of the present invention is to provide a recording time record for the user to assist in correcting the photo files while uploading and storing the photo files.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, when the user wants to upload the photo file captured by the camera device 80 to the server system 1 of the present invention through the user terminal computer 90, it must first input and transmit a photo file. The service request is to the server system 1 (ie, step S201). Thereafter, when the server system 1 receives the service request from the user terminal computer 90, an image P1 is provided according to the service request (ie, step S202), and the user is required to use the camera to obtain the image to be uploaded. The photographing device 80 of the photo file takes the image P1, and the content of the image P1 displayed on the user computer 90 is as shown in FIG. 1 , which is a digital pattern and a text pattern including time information and a verification code. .

As shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, after the user takes the image P displayed on the user terminal computer 90 by using the camera device 80, the user must then upload the target photo file 81 that he/she originally intended to upload. The corrected photo file 82 (that is, the photo file obtained after the image P is captured) that is requested to be captured is uploaded to the server system 1 (ie, step S203), wherein the target photo file 81 and the corrected photo file 82 are the same as the foregoing. It must be taken by the same camera unit 80. Thereafter, the file receiving module 10 of the server system 1 receives the target photo file 81 and the corrected photo file 82 from the user terminal computer 90 (ie, step S204). Each target photo file 81 contains a respective target photo shooting time record, and the corrected photo file 82 also contains a corrected photo shooting time record. The target photo shooting time record and the corrected photo shooting time record are all the time set by the camera device 80 when the recording file is completed. Therefore, the time recorded by the target photo shooting time record and the corrected photo shooting time record may not be the file completion reality. The true standard time. For example, assuming that the time set by the camera device 80 differs from the actual standard time by three minutes, the time recorded by the target photo shooting time record and the corrected photo shooting time record will be different from the actual standard time by three minutes.

As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 4, after the file receiving module 10 receives the target photo file 81 and the corrected photo file 82, the server system 1 then provides a time input screen P2 (ie, step S205) to request use. The person inputs and transmits the time information displayed by the image content of the corrected photo file 82. For example, suppose that in step S202, the digital pattern of the content of the image P1 provided by the server system 1 is displayed 16:30:12 (ie, the time information is 4:32:12 pm), then in step S206 The user should enter 16:30:12.

After the user inputs and transmits the time information of the content of the image P1 of the corrected photo file 82 (ie, after executing step S206), the time information obtaining module 20 of the server system 1 can obtain the image P1 of the corrected photo file 82. The time information of the content display (ie, step S207), that is, in the first embodiment of the present invention, the time information displayed by the image P1 of the corrected photo file 82 is received by the user computer 90. And obtained (that is, provided by user input).

As shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 5, after the step S207 is executed, in order to ensure that the time input by the user is indeed the time information displayed by the image content of the corrected photo file 82, the server system 1 will request the user to input and The verification code displayed on the image P1 of the corrected photo file 82 is transmitted, that is, at this time, the server system 1 provides a verification code input screen P3 (ie, step S208) for the user to input and transmit the verification code.

In step S209, after the user inputs and transmits the verification code, the verification code is transmitted to the server system 1. The verification module 30 of the server system 1 receives the verification code, and further determines whether the verification code is correct (ie, performs step S210), that is, the verification module 30 determines the verification code and correction input by the user. Whether the verification code in the image P1 of the photo file 82 is consistent, the specific judgment method is to compare the time information and the verification code input by the user (because the verification code and the time information are all served by the servo The system 1 is provided, so when provided, the server system 1 will record the correspondence between the two); if so, it means that the time information input by the user is actually input according to the content of the image P1; If it does not correspond, it means that the time information input by the user is not input according to the content of the image P1.

In step S210, if the input verification code is correct, steps S211 to S212 are performed; if the determination result is incorrect, the target photo file 81 is directly stored, or a prompt message is sent to notify the user of the input. If the verification code is incorrect, or the user is refused to upload the storage target photo file 81, the specific subsequent processing may be designed according to the actual needs of the system, and is not limited to a specific mode.

When the verification module 30 determines in step S210 that the received verification code is correct, the calculation module 40 of the server system 1 calculates the correction time difference according to the acquired time information and the corrected photo shooting time record (ie, Step S211) is performed. Taking the example shown in FIG. 3 as an example, it is assumed that the time information of the content of the image P1 of the corrected photo file 82 taken by the user using the camera device 80 is 16:30:12 (ie, 4:32:12 pm). This description omits the year, month, and day. This is also the actual standard time for the user to take the image P1. Moreover, if the corrected photo shooting time record of the corrected photo file 82 (that is, the time set by the camera device 80 when the corrected photo file 82 is captured) is 16:31:30, the calculation module 40 can perform the correction according to the photo file. 82 time image P1 content display time information and corrected photo shooting time record, calculate the true standard time at the time of shooting and the time set by the camera device 80, the time difference between the two (16:31:30-16:30:12) =78 seconds, this is the correction time difference).

After the step S211 is completed, that is, after the calculation module 40 calculates the correction time difference, the calibration module 50 of the server system 1 then obtains the corrected target of the target photo file 81 according to the correction time difference and the target photo shooting time record. The photo shooting time record (ie, step S212 is performed), and replaces the original target photo shooting time record of the target photo file 81; in other words, the target photo shooting time record of the target photo file 81 is corrected to the corrected target photo. Shooting time record. For example, suppose the target photo shooting time of a certain target photo file 81 is recorded as 08:01:18 (that is, 8:01:18 in the morning), and the calculated correction time difference is 78 seconds, then the target is After the photo file is corrected, the target photo shooting time record is 08:00:00 (08:01:18-00:01:18=08:00:00).

After the time recording correction is completed, the server system 1 then stores the target photo file 81 having the correct shooting time record in the memory 60 (i.e., step S213 is performed).

Again, please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7. 6 is a schematic diagram of a usage environment of a time recording correction method according to a second embodiment of the present invention; and FIG. 7 is a flow chart showing the steps of the time recording correction method according to the second embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 6, different from the foregoing embodiment, in the second embodiment of the present invention, after the user issues a service request, the content of the image P1 provided by the server system 1 is no longer as shown in FIG. Shown as a digital pattern and a text pattern containing time information and a verification code, the digital pattern originally displaying the time information is presented as a graphic code (as shown in FIG. 6 , which is represented by QR code, but The graphic code is not limited to the QR code. Different graphic codes represent different time information. The photo file obtained by the user using the camera device 80 to capture the image P1 including the graphic code is the aforementioned corrected photo file 82. At this time, the image P1 of the corrected photo file 82 includes the representative image. A graphic code of a specific time information.

As shown in FIG. 7, in the second embodiment of the present invention, when the user transmits the target photo file 81 and the corrected photo file 82 to the server system 1 as described in the first embodiment, the server system 1 Instead of providing the time input screen P2, the verification code input screen P3 is directly provided (ie, step S705) for the user to input the verification code. Since the verification process (ie, step S707) is the same as that described in the first embodiment, no further details are provided herein.

In step S707, when it is determined that the received verification code is correct, the time information obtaining module 20 of the server system 1 parses the graphic code in the content of the image P1 of the corrected photo file 82 to obtain the graphic code. The time information (step S708), in other words, in the present embodiment, the time information is obtained by the time information acquisition module 20 by analyzing the content of the image P1 of the corrected photo file 82. Since the graphic code parsing technique is a prior art and has been familiar to those of ordinary skill in the art, it will not be repeated here.

After obtaining the time information of the image P1 content of the photo file 82, the calculation module 40 can calculate the correction time difference according to the time information and the corrected photo shooting time record of the corrected photo file 82 (ie, step S709), and then The correction module 50 obtains the corrected target photo shooting time record of the target photo file 82 according to the correction time difference and the target photo shooting time record of the target photo file 82 (ie, step S710).

Finally, the server system 1 stores the target photo file 81 having the correct shooting time record in the memory 60 (ie, step S711 is performed).

It should be noted here that the time recording correction method of the present invention is not limited to the above-described sequence of steps, and the order of the above steps may be changed as long as the object of the present invention can be achieved; for example, in the first embodiment The step of receiving the time information and the verification code and determining whether the verification code is correct may also be implemented before the receiving target photo file 81 and the corrected photo file 82. In other words, the user may be requested before the user uploads the photo. The time information and the verification code must be input. Similarly, in the second embodiment, the receiving verification code can also be implemented prior to receiving the target photo file 81 and the corrected photo file 82. In addition, the time recording correction method of the present invention is not necessary to implement all the above steps, and some steps may be omitted; for example, the steps of the verification procedure (including steps S208 to S210 and steps S705 to S707) are in the present invention. Can be omitted.

In addition, in the first embodiment of the present invention, the time information displayed by the content of the image P1 of the corrected photo file 82 may be input without the user, but the time information obtaining module 20 directly analyzes the corrected photo. The image P1 of the file 82 is obtained, that is, even if the image P1 of the corrected photo file 82 is a digital pattern or a text pattern, the image P1 of the corrected photo file 82 can be obtained by the text analysis method. Time information.

To sum up, the present invention, regardless of its purpose, means and efficacy, shows its distinctive features of the prior art. You are requested to review the examination and express the patent as soon as possible. It should be noted that the various embodiments described above are merely illustrative for ease of explanation, and the scope of the invention is intended to be limited by the scope of the claims.
