    DESCRIPTION
    SYSTEM AND PROCEDURE OF SPACE VISUALIZATION OF USERS IN TESTERS
    OBJECT OF THE INVENTION
    The present invention relates to a system and a method of spatial visualization of users in testers. Said system will preferably be installed in an area inside the store (outside the clothes changer), this area being of different sizes and shapes depending on the needs of the point of sale in which it is located, which has been called a tester, in which the buyer can see, both live and deferred, how the garment is left from different points of view (and in motion) thanks to a system of video cameras, monitors or television screens and means of managing the images captured by the cameras.
    The spatial visualization system of users in testers described here has two modes of action.
    • On the one hand, it allows live viewing: the user displays live, through at least one screen, as is the product of the store. Instead of the traditional mirror, the user in the tester (outside the changer) is “reflected” on one or several screens that cover different points of view, reaching a 360 ° view, around it. These screens simulate being mirrors where the images of the consumer captured from different approaches are shown.
    • On the other hand, it also allows deferred viewing: the user can activate the recording function, so that the captured images are converted into video and stored (the recording is always in the tester and never in the changer). Thus, the user will be able to visualize in a deferred way the product of the store seen from the different points of view. In addition to being displayed remotely and deferred (via Smartphone, electronic tablet, email, website, ...), this option allows you to share the recording instantly with friends, family ..., both before purchase (figure of the prescriber, in order to seek advice from other people) and subsequently to it (reaffirm the purchase). Likewise, it will allow a subsequent online purchase of the garment tested in the store.
    In both modes of operation, the system identifies the store's garments that the user is testing, so that on the one hand, information is obtained on what the customer is tested and on the other, the user receives information about said clothing.

    The technical field of the present invention is the development of solutions for the improvement of the user experience in the dressing rooms and clothing and accessories testers in stores.
    BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
    The current state of the art is working mainly on three technologies in the field of improving the user experience in dressing rooms or clothing and accessories testers. These are: augmented reality, the use of virtual characters and 3D graphics and videos or photographs.
    Augmented reality consists in combining the real world with the virtual one through an informative process, enriching the visual experience and improving the communication channel with the user. In this way, it allows the client to try on different clothes without having to put them on the body. All known projects have in common the use of a giant screen as a mirror and between one and nine video cameras.
    The TopShop® clothing store chain has recently designed a virtual tester consisting of a large LCD screen placed vertically to resemble a dressing mirror. The screen is connected to a Kinect®, which, through an application of augmented reality, makes it possible for the user to try on clothes without having to put them on.
    The "Image-based clothes transfer, IEEE International Symposium on Mixed and Augmented Reality 2011" document describes an augmented reality clothing tester that uses a room in which there are 9 video cameras that record the clothes that are tested from different angles, to then keep the information of that garment in a database. Thus, the next user to enter the tester can observe on a TV screen how it will be left the garment of clothing that some other customer has been tested before .
    All known augmented reality solutions present the problem that they do not offer images of the user with the garment with sufficient reality and quality to replace the traditional system of testing and buying clothes.
    The use of 3D graphics and virtual characters for the process of buying clothes consists in the generation of a "virtual mannequin" of the user on which images of the clothes are placed. It allows the user to observe how virtually different clothes will fit without

    have to wear them The "maniqul" will be selected between random virtual characters and virtual characters created by scanning the user himself.
    Bodymetrics® uses a 3D scanner with PrimseSense® technology, which allows you to analyze the body measurements of a user to create your virtual character and then adjust the clothes to the character that the user wants to buy. In addition, user data, collected using 3D sensors, are useful for the subsequent purchase of clothing in the same stores. Even if the person is not physically in the store you can use your virtual character to buy online most appropriate to your style and personal characteristics.
    The "Research of Interactive 3D Virtual Fitting Room on Web Environment, Fourth International Symposium on Computational Intelligence and Design 2011" document describes an online virtual reality clothing tester, in which the user can create a virtual character similar to oneself on which different clothing items can be tested below, and the system gives advice on clothing (color, material ...).
    These systems, mainly designed for online purchase are more precise and of better quality than those based on augmented reality, although the costs of their implementation are very high due to the technology used. In addition, the user experience is still not like being physically tested.
    As for the use of video and photographs in fitting rooms, "Responsive mirror" of PARC is a clothing tester, which records a video of the clothing that the user has tested so that when another garment is tested, the Once the user is seen in the mirror with that garment, he can see on a screen that is next to a recording of the user with the previous garment, through another camera he records the contour of the user so that it can be observed in the same position both in the mirror as in the video This system is focused so that the user can buy the garment that is being tested with others that he or other users have already tried.
    However, the user is not able to see and share how the garment fits from different points of view. In the state of the art, the treatment of the information obtained in a tester includes the information of the clothes that the user is testing (material, color, price ...) and the information that can be shared with the outside (photographs, videos).

    With regard to obtaining clothing information, existing smart testers obtain information on the clothing being tested, and also advise on the clothes that would best suit the customer. The predominant technology to obtain information on the clothing that the user is testing is radiofrequency identification (RFID) technology.
    The tester developed by Humor Shop by A-net Inc is an augmented reality tester that connects to a graphics tablet, allows you to test any garment in the store and share it instantly on social networks. It is common in the state of the art the existence of testers who share photographs taken exclusively of the clothes that are being tested through the internet, either by email or through social networks. However, there are no, in the state of the art, testers that share images or videos of the user with their clothes on.
    In summary, none of the three technologies examined within the field of improving the user experience in the changing rooms or clothing and accessories testers, offer the user a solution that allows them to test the garment and see themselves, both live and delayed , as you really feel the garment seen from different points of view (and moving), in addition to being able to share this evidence.
    DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
    In order to achieve the objectives and avoid the inconveniences listed above, the invention first describes a system of spatial visualization of users in testers. For this, a visualization area is defined within a point of sale (a store) and outside the clothes changer, which has been called a tester, where the user is placed with the garments on display. The user visualization system in testers includes:
    - at least one video camera for capturing images of the user, where the at least one camera is arranged around the viewing area. These video cameras, preferably, will be high definition cameras;
    - visualization means connected to at least one video camera, where the images captured by the cameras are reproduced; Y,
    - computational media connected to the at least one video camera for processing the captured images; the computational means additionally comprise, for the storage of the images captured by the cameras, selected means among storage media, means for uploading the images

    captured to a remote server and combination of both, for the subsequent download and visualization by the user on electronic devices.
    It is expected that the user will optionally register in a database to create their own user account. Likewise, the user can both activate the storage option of the recordings made (the images captured by the cameras), and access his account to view, delete, download or share those recordings together with the information on the garments associated with each recording. In this way, it is possible to implement, in parallel, a management and online sales system based on the recordings made and the information captured by the means of identification of the garments that the user has been tested.
    The viewing area should be large enough so that the user can move freely within it. This viewing area is variable and is conditioned both by the space available at the point of sale and by the angle of the video cameras (so that they allow a minimum visualization). More preferably, it is provided that the video cameras are arranged covering a 360 degree angle around a vertical axis of the user. In this way, all possible user views are covered. However, the number and arrangement of the video cameras will depend in each case on the needs of the point of sale in which they are installed. In another embodiment of the invention three cameras located respectively in the front, back and side planes of the user will be used.
    In another embodiment of the invention, the visualization means employed are screens through which the images captured by the video cameras are reproduced. The number of screens used may vary, the number being preferably between 1 and the number of existing video cameras. In this way, the display system can be configured so that each screen shows the recording of a video camera, so that a single screen shows all the recordings of the cameras, both simultaneously and sequentially, or any other possible combination.
    In another embodiment of the invention, the system comprises means of simultaneous visualization of the images of several video cameras on a single screen.
    In another embodiment of the invention, the system comprises means for manually switching the recording of the video camera shown by the screen, that is to say the user may decide on

    every moment that video camera output wants to see on the screen. These switching means could be a remote control, an electronic tablet from which to switch the view shown on the screen or the screen itself through a touch system.
    In the event that the display system has a single screen to display the images from the video cameras, two designs of the system object of the present invention are provided:
    In a first design, the system comprises:
    - a single signal selector connected to the output of all video cameras, the selector being the element in charge of switching between the video signal received from the different video cameras;
    - a signal capture module connected to the computer media for the management and storage of the recordings coming from the video cameras;
    - a splitter (in English, “splitter”) of the signals coming from the signal selector that is connected in one of its outputs to the screen to show the image captured by the video camera and to the signal capture module by its other output ; Y,
    Note that the capture module will send to the computer media the signal of the camera previously selected by the signal selector so that only the view from the camera that the user has selected at any time will be stored.
    In a second design, the system comprises:
    - a signal distributor connected to each video camera;
    - a single signal selector connected to all signal distributors and to the screen for separate or simultaneous viewing of recordings from all video cameras;
    - a signal capture module connected to each signal distributor and connected to the computing means for processing, storing and managing the signals (images) from the video cameras.
    More preferably, it is provided that the display means are a plurality of screens where each screen shows the recording of a video camera.
    Thus, in another embodiment of the invention, when the system has a screen for each output signal of each video camera, the system comprises:
    5

    - a signal distributor for each video camera, where each signal distributor is connected to each video camera;
    - one screen for each video camera, where each screen is connected to a first output of each signal distributor; Y,
    - a unique signal capture module connected to a second output of each signal distributor and which is connected to the computational means for storing and managing the signals coming from the video cameras. More preferably, this capture module is a 4-port peripheral component interconnect (PCI) capture.
    In another embodiment of the invention, the system has a means of activating the function of storing images for previously registered customers (with their own user) in the system. For this provision, user identification means (web access with user and password, personal plastic card, fingerprint etc) are connected to the computer means that process the recording storage order.
    In another embodiment of the invention, the system comprises means of identification of the garment connected to the computational means for the identification of the garment (and associated information) simultaneously with the recording of the user in the tester, being stored together with the recording made an identifier of the garment worn by the user. These media will depend on the technology used by the store. In a particular embodiment, these means may comprise:
    - an RFID tag attached to the garment that stores the identifier of the garment;
    - an RFID antenna that creates an area of confinement that covers at least the display area for the capture of the garment identifier; Y,
    - an RFID reader connected to the RFID antenna configured to compare the identifier of the captured garment with a database of previously stored garment identifiers, identify the garment worn by the user and send the information to the computing means. Additionally, it is foreseen that the means of identification also obtain information about the garment, such as the physical characteristics of the garment (size, color, material, etc.) such as price, applicable discounts, etc.
    This garment identification system can also be used to identify the garments that users have tried, even if the recording functionality has not been activated.

    In another embodiment of the invention, the system comprises motion sensors in the visualization area that detect the presence of the user to activate the rest of the components of the spatial visualization system.
    In another embodiment of the invention, it is provided that all connections between the different elements that make up the display system are by means of high definition multimedia interface (HDMI) cables to ensure high quality of the recordings both displayed and are stored.
    A second object of the invention is the method of spatial visualization of users in testers that makes use of the system described above. Said spatial visualization procedure of users in testers comprises the following phases:
    - capture through the cameras video images of the user with the garments, once the user is within the viewing area;
    - process the images captured in the computer media; Y,
    - show the captured images via the at least one screen.
    In this way, the user is able to view the images captured by the live video cameras in the store itself.
    Optionally, it is foreseen that for users previously registered in the system, the procedure additionally includes the following steps:
    - activate the option of storing the captured images by the previously registered user (with their own user, so that the confidentiality of the recordings is guaranteed and guaranteed at all times);
    - process these images to convert them into video;
    - simultaneously store said videos in the memory of the computing means, for the delayed visualization of the captured images; Y,
    - Send the videos, by means of uploading the computer media, to the remote server for downloading and viewing the delayed and remote recordings made (videos). In this way, the user sees the recordings live in the store itself while they are sent to a remote server from which they can later download and view them again.
    In a particular embodiment of the procedure. This additionally includes:
    - capture information of the garments that the user wears through the means of identification of the garments,
    5

    - Associate the information captured with the recordings made, store it in the memory of the computer media and send it to the remote server. Thus, both the user's recordings and all the information related to the garments that he is wearing are stored, for example, the garment identifier, size, color, material etc. It can also be stored with this information, the identifier from the store itself, time, date, etc. In short, you can store along with the recordings any information that is useful for the user in the face of a purchase decision (physical or online) and that information that is useful for the store for a possible treatment (mining of data) of the information
    In another embodiment of the invention, the method comprises accessing the user to the recordings made through the remote server and forwarding them to personal accounts on social platforms. In this way, the user can share the parade made and even the information related to the garments that have been tested through any social network to receive opinions from friends or family through these networks.
    In another embodiment of the invention, the procedure, after proceeding to the remote and deferred visualization of the recordings made, comprises making an online purchase of the garment from an online platform associated with the point of sale.

    DESCRIPTION OF VARIOUS EXAMPLES OF EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION
    Next, a description of several examples of realization of the invention, with reference to the numbering adopted in the figures, is made with an illustrative and non-limiting character.
    Figure 1 generally shows a particular embodiment of the user visualization system in testers. Said system (1), which will be installed at the point of sale, is formed by a plurality of screens (2) for on-site visualization of the user or buyer, video cameras (3) and home automation (4) of the system . All these elements are connected to a computer (5) from which the recorded images and videos are managed, as well as the signals coming from the home automation (4) of the system. The aforementioned home automation (4) is composed of the RFID garment identification system (6), the motion sensors (7) for the activation of the system (1) when the user enters the area defined as a tester and an electronic tablet ( 8) from which the user makes the manual switching between the cameras (3), if that option exists, and from which to activate it the option to store the images and from which to access it to his user account if he had previously registered in the system. Once the user recordings have been made with the garments you have chosen, the computer (5) could upload those recordings to a network server (9) or to the cloud (10) where they will be stored. These videos are stored in databases for later viewing, as well as information for the store about what clothes are tested and which ones are sold, always associated with each user. Finally, from the web server (9) the recordings can be sent to accounts on social networks (11), and their visualization will be allowed

    from electronic devices (12) remote or through web pages (13) managed by the stores themselves.
    Figure 2 shows a particular embodiment of the tester (14) in which the display system object of the present invention is installed. The tester (14) is basically a room of about 10-15 square meters that has lighting (15) and equipped with three video cameras to record the user, a front (16), a side (17) and a rear (18) , and a screen (19) for the user to see. Note that this tester is not the changer, that is, the user will enter the tester once he is wearing the clothes he intends to buy. The user (20) has an electronic tablet (21) through which he can activate the recording and from which he can change the view of the camera shown on the screen (19). The tablet (21) simply acts as an interface between the user and the computer from which the images and videos are processed. This interface can also be installed on the same computer or a web server. In addition, the room (14) has an RFID antenna (22) for reading the information stored in the RFID tag (23) attached to each garment.
    The cameras used will be any camera with HDMI output in live-view. As for the screens used for user viewing, it can be any high quality screen that has an HDMI input.
    The system collects a series of data each time the user performs a parade inside the tester. Among them could be the identity of the user, the clothes that have been tested, the day and time, the store where the parade was held, etc.
    In addition to the RFID system for the identification of clothing, the traditional bar code system would also serve. However, this system of bar codes is less appropriate since the user would have to pass a reader over the code, which implies that he has to take the trouble to register the garment. The technology selected in this example of realization is RFID, due to its greater versatility and performance. However, the system to be used is conditioned by the management system available to the store.
    In this case, RFID technology is a remote data storage and retrieval system that uses devices called tags, cards, transponders or RFID tags. The tag stores a garment identification number, such as the “Electronic Product Code (EPC).” Thus, the RFID reader sends a series of radio frequency waves to the tag, which are captured by the micro-antenna of it. These waves activate the microchip,
    12
    5
    10
    fifteen
    twenty
    25
    30
    35
    which, through the micro-antenna and by means of radiofrequency waves, transmits to the reader the information they have in their memory. Finally, the reader receives the information that has the label and sends it to a database in which the characteristics of the product have been previously registered or can process it according to each application.
    The management of the captured images is one of the most important parts for the end user, since the visualization in real time of the images is essential, in addition to a correct recording and storage of the videos recorded by the users of the system, which then They can be played remotely by connecting to the server where it is stored.
    With regard to the management of the images, the following main points can be identified at the time of choosing the design:
    - Video capture: a capture in HD format (1080p) of the digital video will be made through the HDMI outputs of the cameras. In addition, it will be necessary to compress the video, so that it can be played on the web without the need for a great internet connection.
    - Delay of the images: the choice of the electronic for the transmission of the video has been conditioned to the disappearance of the delay since it can be annoying and inconvenient to visualize the movements of the user with more than 0.5 seconds of delay.
    - Video quality: the maximum resolution provided by the cameras is used today (1080p). In addition, the HDMI interface will be used to interconnect the equipment, since this is a high definition connection without compression, which provides the highest quality. However, for the video stored on the server, it will be necessary to make a compression of it, keeping the quality as possible.
    - System robustness: programming with free software such as Linux, which is a very robust and virus-free system, being the operating system indicated for this type of applications.
    Figure 3 shows an example of carrying out the user visualization procedure in testers object of the present invention. Specifically, it refers to the user's live viewing mode. Once the customer is in the store, he chooses the clothes to be tested and puts them in the changer (24). Once the user is in the viewing area (25) the system can be activated (26) by means of motion sensors that will activate both the video cameras and the screens, or by means of a power button or, The system is constantly activated. The user then performs the "parade" (27) that is captured by the video cameras. Said "parade" is shown (28) simultaneously by the screens allowing the user to view from different
    13
    5
    10
    fifteen

    35
    points of view. During the parade, the garments will be identified (29) by the system through the identification system based on RFID technology. After live viewing of the user with the garments on, he can decide whether to buy (30) or not the garments in question, put on other (24) and repeat the process or leave (31) the store without buying.
    Figure 4 shows another example of carrying out the user visualization procedure in testers object of the present invention. Specifically, it refers to the user's deferred viewing mode. Thus, once the user has put on (32) the garments in the changer and has left the viewing area (33), the display system can be activated (34) by means of motion sensors that will activate both the video cameras and the screens, or by means of a button of ignition of the same ones or, the system is in activated of constant form. The user will be identified (35) (for this the user will have previously registered in the system) by user and password, by means of an identification card or by any other identification device so that the system can identify it and know in advance what user is going to do use of it. The user then performs the "parade" (36) that is recorded by the video cameras. During the parade, the garments will be identified (37) by the system through the identification system based on RFID technology. The information related to the garments it will be stored (38) in the memory of the computer media along with the data of the user who performs the parade and sent (39) remotely to a server or cloud. Once the parade has been made (36) and has been stored in the server or cloud, the user can access the video to watch it (40) as many times as he wants in the store itself or to perform the viewing (41) afterwards outside the store. Store (40), this can be done through an electronic device (tablet, laptop, ...) existing in the store itself and connected to the memory of the visualization system or with access to the server or cloud via internet connection. Asl, once seen The user can decide whether to buy (42) or not the items in question, put on others and repeat the process or leave (43) the store without buying. Optionally, once the user has viewed the recording made and has decided whether to buy or not, you can delete the recording from the memory where it was stored.
    To carry out the remote viewing (41) of the recordings, the user can access from an electronic device such as mobile phone, personal computer, tablet, etc. The access (44) to the information will be made, for example, through the website (45) of the store by registering the user in it, of an application (46) installed in the mobile phone or electronic tablet or through the user's email account (47). From that digital platform the user can manage (48) the recordings and the

    information on the garments, being able, for example, to forward the images to friends or family through emails or you can share it through social networks such as "Facebook" or "Twitter". In addition, the platform may have means to make online purchases of clothing. In this way, the user can try on the clothes in the store and send the recordings made to friends, once they have viewed (remotely and deferred) the recordings will give their opinion to the user, who through the platform Store website make it (49) purchase online the tested clothing tested or dismiss it (50).
    Below are three examples of realization of the visualization system object of the present invention in which three cameras are available.
    Example 1: Manually switched view on a single screen (Figure 5)
    Inside the area defined as a tester, three high definition video cameras are installed, a front camera (51), a side camera (52) and a rear camera (53) that are connected to an HDMI selector (54) via cables HDMI The selector (54), used to select which camera output is sent to the screen (56), is connected to an HDMI distributor (55). Said distributor (55) that separates the input signal, connects on one side directly to the screen (56) and on the other to an HDMI video capture (57). The capture (57) is finally connected to the computer (58) through PCI slots. In this example of realization:
    - A single screen or television located inside the tester is used to view the video obtained in real time.
    - The view of only one of the cameras at a time is shown on the screen.
    - The user will have inside the tester a tablet with which he can change the view shown between the three views provided by the three cameras available.
    - The recording of the video will be made only from the view that the user is contemplating on the screen at that time. That is, a single video file will be recorded, which will change its source between the different cameras when the user manually changes the chosen view.
    - The visualization of the video capture is separated, so as not to process and introduce delay in the video.
    This embodiment shows the following advantages:
    - offers a separate view of the video processing;
    - It is a relatively economical solution when using a single screen;

    - shows the video in real time: the fact of not performing video processing between the cameras and the screens eliminates the delay, which is a key aspect in the perception that the end user of the system will have. The video delay is negligible when using the distributor only to bring the HDMI signal to the screen; Y,
    - When reproducing and recording only one view, the hardware is simplified by reducing the cost of installation.
    Example 2: Unique screen with simultaneous access to all views (Figure 6)
    Inside the area defined as a tester, three high definition video cameras, a front camera (59), a side camera (60) and a rear camera (61) are installed where each video camera is connected to an HDMI distributor ( 62) via HDMI cables. Each distributor (62), which separates the input signal, is connected by one of its outputs to the same HDMI selector (63) that is used to select which output from the cameras is sent to the screen, and by its other output connect to an HDMI video capturer (64). In turn, each capture device (64) is connected to the same computer (66) in which the recordings received from the video cameras (59,60,61) will be processed and stored and from which they will be uploaded to a network server . For its part, the HDMI selector (63) connects directly to the screen (65). Note that all connections are made using HDMI cables to ensure that the high definition image captured by the cameras arrives with maximum clarity on the television screen. In this example of realization:
    - A single screen or TV is used inside the tester to view the video obtained in real time.
    - A camera view is offered, and another view in which the various cameras of the system are simultaneously visualized.
    - The user can choose, through an electronic tablet or similar, between the visualization between each camera or the common view of all of them;
    - The recording of the video will be made of all the views regardless of the view that the user is selecting, so the video obtained from the three cameras will be stored, providing all possible plans.
    - For the view of each camera, the visualization of the video capture is separated, so as not to process and introduce delay in the video that we just visualized on the screens. The common view is processed, compressed and mixed in the processor before being displayed on the screen.
    This embodiment shows the following advantages:
    - availability of a common view of all cameras simultaneously;

    - economical when using a single screen;
    - real-time video for individual views when not processing;
    - in the split screen view it is not necessary to change your view to see yourself from different angles; Y,
    - recording of all views independently.
    Example 3: Triple screen (Figure 7)
    Inside the area defined as a tester, three high definition video cameras are installed, a front camera (67), a side camera (68) and a rear camera (69) where each video camera is connected to an HDMI distributor ( 70) using HD MI cables. Each distributor (70), which separates the input signal, is connected by one of its outputs directly to each of the television screens (71,72,73) and by its other output it is connected to an HDMI video capture ( 74) with PCI channels. The capturer (74) is connected to a computer (75) in which the images received from the video cameras will be managed and from which they will be processed and uploaded to a network server. The front view is expected to be shown by a large screen (71) (60 ”- 80”), while the other views will be shown by smaller screens (between 40 and 60 inches), although this is variable depending on of the needs of the store. Note that all connections are made using HDMI cables to ensure that the high definition image captured by the cameras arrives with maximum clarity to the television screens. In this example of realization:
    - 3 screens or monitors are used inside the tester to visualize the images captured in real time. Each of them reproduces the images captured by each of the cameras. The user will not have the need to change views, since he can see at a glance each of the views looking at a television or another.
    - The recording of the video will be made of all the views simultaneously, so that the video obtained from the three cameras will be stored, providing all possible plans.
    - For the view of each camera, the visualization of the video capture is separated, so as not to process and introduce delay in the video.
    This embodiment shows the following advantages:
    - possibility of simultaneously viewing all views without switching;
    - the storage can be of each of the views separately (each camera generates a file with its video) or together (the images are processed so that in a video the 3 images are displayed in parallel);
    - the video delay disappears practically when the dealer is used to bring the HDMI signal to the screen;
    - separate viewing of the video processing (in case of any error in the computer, the video of the screens will continue to be received correctly); Y,
    5 - the selector disappears, all views are displayed and captured.
    In the three examples of embodiment described, once the images and information and data, both of the user and of the different clothes that have been used, have been acquired and processed, this information will be stored on a server. For this, an internet connection will be needed, and a server with a database where all the previously acquired information will be stored, as well as a storage area for the different videos. On the other hand, for the visualization and presentation of this information, it can be done in the store itself through viewing devices (tablets, computers, monitors ...) or outside it through social networks and in a 15 device own client (personal computer, Smartphone.). All of them will have to have an internet connection, as well as an application designed to acquire the information and videos previously stored on the server.
