Abstract

The invention relates to a method for communicating the conventional charging equipment with a mobile payment system through optical character recognition (OCR). An optical sensor and an OCR module are additionally arranged on the conventional charging equipment or a point of sale (POS) terminal; the optical sensor is arranged near an expense display device on the charging equipment or the POS terminal, reads information displayed on the expense display device and sends the read information to the OCR module; and the OCR module processes the received information to obtain characters coded in a digital mode and sends the characters to the mobile-equipment-based payment system. By the method for communicating the conventional charging equipment with the mobile payment system through OCR, the whole machine can implement the original payment mode, and can perform mobile-equipment-based payment, the conventional charging equipment or the POS terminal is not required to be replaced or removed, and the conventional computer management system is not required to be updated.

Description

A kind of through optical character identification method for communicating between existing counting equipment and mobile-payment system
Technical field
The information that the present invention relates to is transmitted the field, and it is specifically related to a kind of through optical character identification method for communicating between existing counting equipment and mobile-payment system.

Summary of the invention
To the problems referred to above, the objective of the invention is to propose a kind of through optical character identification method for communicating between existing counting equipment and mobile-payment system.
For realizing above-mentioned purpose, the present invention takes following technical scheme:
A kind of through optical character identification method for communicating between existing counting equipment and mobile-payment system; It is provided with at least one counting equipment or at least one point-of-sale terminals; Said counting equipment or point-of-sale terminals are provided with the expense display device; Also be provided with at least one optical sensor and at least one optical character identification module; The information of said optical sensor reading displayed on the expense display device, and the information that reads sent to said optical character identification module, said optical character identification module becomes the character with the digital form coding to send to the payment system based on mobile device the information processing that receives.
Said counting equipment is taximeter, water meter, ammeter, gas meter, natural gas meter, public telephone fee register or parking fee register.
Said optical character identification module is one to operate in the computer program at least one computing equipment.
Said at least one computing equipment also moves the computer program of said payment system based on mobile device.
Said optical character identification module is sent with the character of digital form coding through the mode of wired, wireless, optics, sound and/or mechanical vibration and is given the payment system based on mobile device.
Said optical sensor is arranged at expense display device periphery through stationary installation.
Said stationary installation is all or part of to be processed by transparent material.
Said stationary installation is carried out the adjustment of size and dimension as required.
Also be provided with a display device, said display device shows that said optical character identification resume module becomes the character with the digital form coding.
Said optical sensor comprises: at least one light transmitting fiber and at least one photoelectronic imaging device; Said expense display device periphery is provided with said light transmitting fiber; Image is conducted to the photoelectronic imaging device; The photoelectronic imaging device is sent to the optical character identification module after image is carried out to picture, carries out character recognition.
Said payment system based on mobile device is sent information to said counting equipment or point-of-sale terminals.
The present invention is owing to take above technical scheme, and it has the following advantages:
The present invention is a kind of through optical character identification method for communicating between existing counting equipment and mobile-payment system; Optical sensor and optical character identification module are set on existing counting equipment or point-of-sale terminals; Making its complete machine not only can carry out original modes of payments implements; Can also carry out payment, need not to change and remove existing counting equipment or point-of-sale terminals, also need not to upgrade existing computer management system based on mobile device; Save the cost of businessman, reduced the trouble of changing counting equipment or point-of-sale terminals.
Embodiment
Below in conjunction with embodiment the present invention is carried out detailed description.
The present invention is a kind of through optical character identification method for communicating between existing counting equipment and mobile-payment system; It sets up an optical sensor and an optical character identification module on existing counting equipment or point-of-sale terminals; Said optical sensor is located near the expense display device on counting equipment or the point-of-sale terminals; The information of said optical sensor reading displayed on the expense display device; And the information that reads sent to said optical character identification module; Said optical character identification module becomes the character with the digital form coding with the information processing that receives, and sends to the payment system based on mobile device with the mode of wired, wireless, optics, sound and/or mechanical vibration.
Said counting equipment can be taximeter, water meter, ammeter, gas meter, natural gas meter, public telephone fee register or parking fee register.On paying that statistics have shown or charging device, optical sensor and optical character identification module can be installed especially like this.
Said optical character identification module is one to operate in the computer program in the computing equipment.Computing equipment can also move other computer programs simultaneously, not only just is the optical character identification module service, and computing equipment can be existing equipment simultaneously, only the optical character identification modular program need be installed above that and get final product.The optical character identification module can also a hardware mode be connected operation separately with optical sensor.
Said optical sensor is arranged at expense display device periphery through stationary installation.Stationary installation can all or part ofly be processed by transparent material, after setting up optical sensor, can avoid blocking original display so as far as possible.Stationary installation can also be carried out the adjustment of size and dimension as required, as need not use optical sensor to carry out work the time, and can be with foldable integral.Can also to increase an extra display device by payment data in order better showing, to show on the display device that said optical character identification resume module becomes the character with the digital form coding.Said optical sensor can also adopt at least one light transmitting fiber and at least one photoelectronic imaging device; Below existing display, light transmitting fiber is set like this; Image is conducted to the photoelectronic imaging device; The photoelectronic imaging device is sent to the optical character identification module after image is carried out to picture, carries out character recognition.
After whole communication was accomplished, said payment system based on mobile device can be sent information to said counting equipment or point-of-sale terminals through computer management system, and businessman can pass through information-reply, knows whether payment is successful.
The present invention only describes with the foregoing description; Each is invented, and step can change to some extent; On the basis of technical scheme of the present invention, all improvement and equivalents of indivedual flow processs being carried out according to the principle of the invention all should not got rid of outside protection scope of the present invention.
