Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a system for providing customized cosmetics by using genetic information, the system comprising: a terminal that receives user information related to a user; a genetic/medical information server that stores genetic information related to the user; a skin meter that acquires skin information on the user; and a cosmetic manufacturing system that manufactures cosmetics by discharging at least one cosmetic material, wherein the cosmetic manufacturing system can select a cosmetic material to be discharged on the basis of at least one among the user information, the genetic information, and the skin information.

Claims (37)

1 . A system for providing customized cosmetics, the system comprising:

a terminal that receives user information related to a user and includes a user identification unit for identifying the user;

a gene/medical information server that stores genetic information and medical information related to the user;

a skin meter that acquires skin information on the user; and

a cosmetic manufacturing system including a cosmetic manufacturing server and a cosmetic manufacturing device,

wherein the cosmetic manufacturing server is configured to receive the user information from the terminal, receive at least one of the genetic information or the medical information from the gene/medical information server, receive the skin information from the skin meter, and select a cosmetic material to be discharged based on at least one of the user information, the genetic information, the medical information and the skin information,

wherein the cosmetic manufacturing server is further configured to transmit cosmetic information and a control signal to the cosmetic manufacturing device,

wherein the cosmetic manufacturing device is configured to manufacture cosmetics by discharging at least one cosmetic material in response to the control signal,

wherein the terminal further includes a user identification unit configured to identify the user, an input unit configured to receive the user information related to the identified user, and a controller configured to determine a security level based on identification information acquired when identifying the user,

wherein the gene/medical information server acquires at least one of the genetic information and the medical information according to the security level,

wherein the gene/medical information server is configured to acquire the genetic information when the security level is a first level, acquire the medical information when the security level is a second level, and acquire the genetic information and the medical information when the security level is a third level, and

wherein the cosmetic manufacturing server is configured to select the cosmetic material to be discharged differently according to the genetic information even though the skin information is the same.

2 . The system of claim 1 , further comprising:

a key authentication server that shares a public key when the user is identified through the user identification unit, wherein the gene/medical information server transmits the genetic information to the cosmetic manufacturing system when receiving a server key generated based on the public key.

3 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the cosmetic manufacturing system determines a skin of the user as any one of preset skin groups based on the genetic information, and selects the cosmetic material to be discharged based on the determined skin group.

4 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the cosmetic manufacturing system determines a skin of the user as any one of preset skin groups in consideration of a preset priority among the user information, the genetic information, and the skin information and selects the cosmetic material to be discharged based on the determined skin group.

5 . The system of claim 4 , wherein the cosmetic manufacturing system determines a group to which the skin of the user belongs based on the skin information, and determines a subgroup to which the skin of the user belongs within the determined group using the genetic information to select the cosmetic material to be discharged.

6 . The system of claim 5 , wherein the terminal receives survey information as the user information, and

wherein the cosmetic manufacturing system corrects a compounding ratio of the cosmetic material to be discharged that is selected based on the survey information.

7 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the terminal displays a predicted aging image derived based on the genetic information.

8 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the terminal displays genetic information related to the selected cosmetic material.

9 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the terminal displays at least one of the selected cosmetic material, variable information of the selected cosmetic material, and price information of the cosmetic material, and further receives an input for changing the cosmetic material.

10 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the cosmetic manufacturing system selects the cosmetic material to be discharged using data in which a related gene for predicting skin characteristics and a skin group classified according to skin characteristics are mapped.

11 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the cosmetic manufacturing system selects the cosmetic material to be discharged using data in which a skin group classified according to skin characteristics and cosmetic materials suitable for the skin group are mapped.

12 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the system further includes a key authentication server configured to share a public key with the terminal, encrypt a first server key using the public key to generate an encrypted first server key, and transmit the encrypted first server key to the terminal,

wherein the terminal is configured to generate a second server key using the first server key and transmit the second server key to the key authentication server,

wherein the key authentication server is further configured to decrypt the second server key using a master key and transmit the second server key to the gene/medical information server, and

wherein the gene/medical information server is configured to transmit the genetic information or the medical information to the cosmetic manufacturing system upon receiving the second server key.

13 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the skin meter includes a light source and a sensor configured to acquire a normal light skin image and a fluorescent skin image from the user,

wherein the system is configured to analyze a skin glycation grade by combining the normal light skin image and the fluorescent skin image to determine an amount of advanced glycation end products in a skin of the user, and

wherein the cosmetic manufacturing system is further configured to select the cosmetic material by identifying a recommended ingredient capable of inhibiting the amount of the advanced glycation end products.

14 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the cosmetic manufacturing system includes:

a storage unit including a plurality of cartridges storing cosmetic materials;

a driving unit coupled to the plurality of cartridges; and

a control unit configured to:

calculate a specific discharge ratio of the cosmetic materials based on the genetic information, and

transmit a control signal to the driving unit to physically discharge and mix the at least one cosmetic material from the plurality of cartridges according to the specific discharge ratio to create a customized cosmetic formulation for the user.
