System, method and program for managing and displaying product information
First Claim
1. An information processing system in which an augmented reality presenting device having a transmissive or non-transmissive display and a managing device managing product information related to respective products posted on a flier are connected via a network,wherein the augmented reality presenting device comprises:
- an imaging unit obtaining image data of the flier captured in an angle of view in response to a unit detecting a user of the augmented reality presenting device identifying a product posted on the flier based at least on captured image data initiated by one or more finger shape patterns indicating a direction and distance relationship between a user finger and the product;
a first obtaining unit obtaining image data related to the product; and
a first transmitting unit transmitting the image data related to the product to the managing device,wherein the managing device comprises;
a flier information storage unit storing image data related to the respective products posted on the flier;
a determining unit receiving the image data related to the product from the first transmitting unit of the augmented reality presenting device, determining the product specified by the user by comparing the image data related to the product with the image data related to the respective products and stored in the flier information storage unit;
a second obtaining unit obtaining the product information related to the product correlated with the user; and
a second transmitting unit transmitting the product information obtained by the second obtaining unit to the augmented reality presenting device, andwherein the augmented reality presenting device further comprises a presenting unit displaying, on the display, computer-graphics image data indicating the product information transmitted from the second transmitting unit of the managing device by combining with an image in real space.

Abstract
A mobile terminal (200) obtains image data related to a product posted on a flier (300) by imaging and sends the image data related to the product to a shopping management server (100). Upon reception of the image data related to the product from the mobile terminal (200), the shopping management server (100) determines the product by analyzing the image data related to the product, obtains at least one of inventory information and sales information of the product, and sends at least one of the inventory information and the sales information of the product to the mobile terminal (200). The mobile terminal (200) combines computer-graphics image data indicating at least one of the inventory information and the sales information of the product sent from the shopping management server (100) with an image of the flier in real space and presents the combined image, thereby solving the problem.

9. An information processing method executed by an information processing system in which an augmented reality presenting device having a transmissive or non-transmissive display and a managing device managing product information related to respective products posted on a flier are connected via a network,
wherein the augmented reality presenting device is configured to: -
obtain image data of the flier captured in an angle of view in response to a detecting unit detecting a user of the augmented reality presenting device identifying a product posted on the flier based at least on captured image data initiated by one or more finger shape patterns indicating a direction and distance between relationship between a user finger and the product; obtain image data related to the product; and transmit the image data related to the product to the managing device, and wherein the managing device is configured to; receive the image data related to the product from the augmented reality resenting device, determined the product specified by the user by comparing the image data related to the product with image data related to the respective products posted on the flier and stored in flier information storage unit; obtain the product information related to the product correlated with the user; and transmit the product information to the augmented reality presenting device.
