SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING ADDITIONAL INFORMATION USING IMAGE MATCHING
First Claim
1. A system for providing additional information using image matching, comprising:
- a image input unit configured to receive a video or an image input from a user terminal;
a query image determination unit configured to determine a query image, i.e., a query target, from the video or image received from the image input unit;
a feature point extraction unit configured to extract feature points of the query image determined by the query image determination unit, and to generate feature point information of the extracted feature points;
a reference meta-information database configured to store a structure image identifier (ID) of a structure image of a structure on which an original image has been installed, structure image feature point information of the structure image, and additional information to be provided to the user terminal in association with the structure image ID;
an image matching unit configured to determine a matching structure image ID by comparing the feature point information of the query image generated by the feature point extraction unit with the structure image feature point information stored in the reference meta-information database; and
an additional information provision unit configured to provide the additional information stored in association with the structure image ID determined by the image matching unit to the user terminal.

Abstract
The present invention relates to a system and method for providing additional information using image matching. The present invention provides a system for providing additional information using image matching, including: a image input unit configured to receive a video or an image input from a user terminal; a query image determination unit configured to determine a query image, i.e., a query target, from the video or image received from the image input unit; a feature point extraction unit configured to extract feature points of the query image determined by the query image determination unit, and to generate feature point information of the extracted feature points; a reference meta-information database configured to store a structure image identifier (ID) of a structure image of a structure on which an original image has been installed, structure image feature point information of the structure image, and additional information to be provided to the user terminal in association with the structure image ID; an image matching unit configured to determine a matching structure image ID by comparing the feature point information of the query image generated by the feature point extraction unit with the structure image feature point information stored in the reference meta-information database; and an additional information provision unit configured to provide the additional information stored in association with the structure image ID determined by the image matching unit to the user terminal, and a method using the same.

11. A method of providing additional information using image matching, comprising:
-
a first step of receiving a video or an image input from a user terminal; a second step of determining a query image, i.e., a query target, from the received video or image; a third step of extracting feature points of the determined query image and generating feature point information of the extracted feature points; a fourth step of determining a matching structure image ID by comparing the feature point information of the feature points of the extracted query image with structure image feature point information; and a fifth step of providing additional information, stored in association with the determined structure image ID, to the user terminal.
