The present invention relates to a vehicle navigation management server and its management method. More specifically, a technology is disclosed that allows a vehicle driver and passengers to share destination information and perform navigation without direct conversation.

Current taxi rides are divided into call vehicles and regular vehicles. In the case of a calling vehicle, the destination has already been entered and the vehicle can be driven. However, for vehicles on public roads, the destination can be known through conversations between passengers and drivers. In this case, if the destination is not already known to the driver, he or she will arrive at the destination by running a navigation system or talking to the passenger several times.

Additionally, for people with language impairments and foreigners, it is difficult to communicate through conversation when using a taxi, so they show their business cards, smartphones, or brochures to the driver to guide them to their destination. Even in the case of a taxi called, if the destination changes while driving, the navigation must be started again. For this purpose, running the navigation system while stopping or driving on the road is dangerous, inconvenient, and illegal under the current law. In addition, violent accidents such as drivers being assaulted by passengers who did not receive an explanation of the destination are occurring, which is becoming a problem.

Among conventional technologies, Republic of Korea Patent Publication No. 10-2014-0021393 (published on February 20, 2014) relates to a taxi fare calculation device and method using a smart phone that prints destination information, and allows tourists to use QR after boarding. The technical feature is that when you touch the QR code to the code reader, the driving result calculation program calculates the driving results from the taxi's current location and the destination location, and displays the calculated driving results on the navigation screen.

However, the conventional technology has limitations in that passengers must always carry a QR code card or booklet containing destination information, a QR code reader must be installed in the vehicle, and QR codes for new destinations cannot be generated. .

The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a vehicle navigation management server and a management method that allows the vehicle driver and passengers to execute navigation by accurately communicating the destination without conversation.

In addition, the purpose is to provide a vehicle navigation management server and its management method that can prevent route guidance from being changed by automatically blocking even if there is an additional destination input from a passenger when the driver's navigation is running.

In addition, when the driver's navigation is running, the purpose is to provide a vehicle navigation management server and a management method that can change the destination according to the driver's selection if there is an additional destination input from the passenger.

In addition, the purpose is to provide a navigation management server and management method for a vehicle that exposes advertising information through a passenger's user terminal and allows advertising without the delivery of separate advertising materials during driving.

The vehicle navigation management server according to an embodiment of the present invention includes an identification code management unit that manages an identification code that can communicate with the first user terminal used by the driver of the vehicle, and a second user terminal used by the passenger. When an identification code is obtained, a destination management unit that receives and manages destination information from the passenger, transmits the destination information to the first user terminal, and executes route guidance from the first user terminal to the destination information. Includes a route guidance execution unit.

In addition, the route guidance executing unit transmits the route guidance to the first user terminal when the second destination information is additionally input from the second user terminal after the route guidance is executed using the first destination information in the first user terminal. You can block it.

In addition, the route guidance executing unit executes the route guidance using the first destination information in the first user terminal, and when second destination information is additionally input from the second user terminal, the driver is activated in the first user terminal. If approved, the route guidance can be re-executed using the second destination information.

In addition, the route guidance executing unit compares the location information of the first user terminal with the location information of the second user terminal, and when the preset distance is exceeded, sends the location information of the second user terminal to the first user terminal. The above route guidance can be executed.

A method of managing a vehicle's navigation management server according to another embodiment of the present invention includes an identification code management step of managing an identification code that can communicate with the first user terminal used by the driver of the vehicle, and an identification code used by the passenger. 2 When the identification code is obtained through the user terminal, a destination management step of receiving and managing destination information from the passenger, transmitting the destination information to the first user terminal, and transmitting the destination information from the first user terminal to the destination information. Includes a route guidance execution step to execute route guidance.

Accordingly, the driver and passengers of the vehicle can accurately convey the destination and execute the navigation without conversation.

Additionally, when the driver's navigation is running, even if there is an additional destination input from the passenger, it is automatically blocked to prevent the route guidance from changing.

Additionally, when the driver's navigation is running, if there is an additional destination input from the passenger, the destination can be changed according to the driver's selection.

The management server 100 communicates with the first user terminal 11 and the second user terminal 12. In this case, the management server 100 may provide an interface in the form of a web page when communicating with the first user terminal 11 and the second user terminal 12. The management server 100 manages the identification code 20 authenticated by the driver of the first user terminal 11. The management server 100 provides an interface through which destination information can be entered when accessed by obtaining the identification code 20 from the second user terminal 12, and stores and manages the input destination information. The management server 100 transmits the destination information input from the second user terminal 12 to the first user terminal 11. In this case, the first user terminal 11 automatically executes navigation when destination information is input from the management server 100.

FIG. 2 is a configuration diagram of a vehicle navigation management server according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 3 is a flowchart of a management method of the vehicle navigation management server according to FIG. 1, and FIG. 4 is a vehicle navigation management according to FIG. 1. It is an example diagram for explaining the driver's membership registration screen provided by the server, FIG. 5 is an example diagram for explaining the passenger's destination information input screen provided by the vehicle's navigation management server according to FIG. 1, and FIG. 6 is FIG. This is an example diagram to explain the processing process when new destination information is input from the second user terminal while route guidance is running on the first user terminal in the vehicle's navigation management server according to 1.

1 to 6, the vehicle navigation management server 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes an identification code management unit 110, a destination management unit 120, and a route guidance execution unit 130.

The identification code management unit 110 manages the identification code 20 that can communicate with the first user terminal 11 used by the driver of the vehicle 10 (S110). Here, the identification code 20 may be a barcode, QR code, AR code, etc., but is not necessarily limited thereto. The identification code 20 is set with connection information that allows communication with the first user terminal 11 used by the driver of the vehicle 10. In this case, it is desirable that the first user terminal 11 is capable of network communication. The identification code 20 can be attached to the inside or outside of the vehicle 10 in the form of a sticker, or displayed through a display. The identification code management unit 110 encrypts information about the certified driver and issues and manages a unique identification code 20.

Additionally, the identification code management unit 110 may provide a guidance page for authenticating membership registration using the driver's first user terminal 11. In this case, you can sign up for membership by setting an ID and password. The identification code management unit 110 can receive the passenger's user information such as vehicle number, email, mobile phone number, company name, and region. The identification code management unit 110 can authenticate by transmitting an authentication number to the mobile communication number of the driver's first user terminal 11 and having the driver input the authentication number. The identification code management unit 110 can recognize and authenticate the identification code 20 to be attached to the vehicle 10. Accordingly, the authenticated identification code 20 can be used for the vehicle 10.

When the identification code 20 is obtained through the second user terminal 12 used by the passenger, the destination management unit 120 receives destination information from the passenger and manages it (S120). In this case, it is desirable that the second user terminal 12 is capable of network communication. The destination management unit 120 obtains the identification code 20 and stores and manages destination information when it is input from the connected second user terminal 12. In this case, it is also possible to encrypt and manage the passenger's destination information. This is to prevent the passenger's destination from being disclosed to the driver or a third party.

For example, when the destination management unit 120 scans the identification code 20 with a camera in the second user terminal 12, it connects to a URL in the form of a web page where destination information can be entered. In this case, when the passenger inputs and transmits destination information to the second user terminal 12, the corresponding web page ends. This interface can be easily used without a dedicated application, allowing drivers to easily provide destination information to passengers.

Additionally, the destination management unit 120 determines whether the destination information is valid by comparing it with preset address information. For example, if the destination information input from the second user terminal 12 is an invalid address, re-entry may be requested. This is to provide valid destination information to the first user terminal 11, which is the driver. In this case, the validity of the address information can be determined by looking up the address information provided by the government. The destination management unit 120 can provide map information corresponding to the address when the user inputs destination information. This is to allow passengers to confirm the destination information they entered through map information.

Additionally, the destination management unit 120 can also recommend similar address information when the destination information input from the second user terminal 12 is invalid. In this case, the destination management unit 120 may recommend a first similar destination with a high keyword similarity to the destination information and recommend a second similar destination in the order of high setting frequency when entering a keyword in the destination information. This is to provide the remaining address by completing it if the passenger enters the destination information incorrectly or incompletely. Accordingly, even when a passenger enters incomplete destination information, similar destinations can be recommended to help passengers set valid destination information.

In addition, the destination management unit 120 may provide a message indicating the impossibility of driving when the destination information input from the second user terminal 12 exceeds a preset distance set by the driver or falls within a preset non-driving area. there is. This is to inform passengers if the destination is too far away or if the destination is unavailable, such as a jurisdiction where commercial operation is not permitted. Accordingly, the driver can prevent disputes from occurring during driving by guiding passengers to only the destinations where driving is possible.

In addition, the destination management unit 120 can also receive destination information from a third user terminal used by a third party who knows the destination when the passenger does not accurately recognize the destination information. For example, if the address search is not easy because the passenger is a foreigner or a first-time traveler, a link for entering destination information can be delivered to a third party who is an acquaintance of the passenger. In this case, the third user terminal can receive and input a link to input destination information without obtaining an identification code. Accordingly, even if the passenger does not accurately recognize the destination information, the passenger can receive destination information from a third party.

Additionally, if the language input from the second user terminal 12 and the language set in the first user terminal 11 are different, the destination management unit 120 can translate and provide the language. This is to ensure that even when a foreign passenger enters destination information in a foreign language when visiting, it is translated and transmitted to the first user terminal 11. For example, when destination information is input in English at the second user terminal 12, it can be translated into Korean, the language used by the first user terminal 11, and transmitted to the first user terminal 11. Accordingly, destination information can be provided accurately even when the languages used are different.

Additionally, the destination management unit 120 is also capable of receiving destination information by scanning an image from the second user terminal 12. For example, the destination management unit 120 may extract destination information by analyzing characters in an image captured from the second user terminal 12 using optical character reader/recognition (OCR) technology. In this case, the destination management unit 120 can determine the destination information by extracting only the portion corresponding to the address information from the recognized character string. In this case, keywords corresponding to street address, road name address, zip code, etc. can be analyzed and extracted as destination information. In this case, the passenger can easily set the destination by scanning the address on a business card, etc., without directly entering the destination information.

The route guidance executing unit 130 transmits the destination information to the first user terminal 11 and causes the first user terminal 11 to execute route guidance to the destination information (S130). In this case, the first user terminal 11 is installed with its own navigation system, and destination information is input from the second user terminal 12 to provide route guidance. If the destination information is encrypted, it is also possible to decrypt and process it. When route guidance according to destination information is executed in the first user terminal 11, the route guidance executing unit 130 may transmit a message notifying that route guidance has started to the second user terminal 12. Accordingly, the passenger of the vehicle 10 can provide route guidance to the driver without verbally informing the driver of the destination information.

Additionally, the route guidance executing unit 130 may transmit the expected arrival time and estimated fare according to the route guidance to the second user terminal 12. Here, the expected arrival time and estimated fare can be generated in a navigation program installed on the first user terminal 11. This is to allow passengers to check the expected arrival time and estimated fare in real time according to the current route information. The route guidance executing unit 130 may generate an alarm signal at preset time intervals before arriving at the destination and provide the alarm signal to the second user terminal 12. This is to inform passengers that arrival at their destination is imminent. These alarm signals can also be provided through text or SNS.

In addition, the route guidance executing unit 130 executes route guidance on the first user terminal 11 when destination information is input from the second user terminal 12, and simultaneously executes route guidance on the second user terminal 12. You can do it. This is to provide route guidance to passengers as well as drivers so that passengers can accurately understand the route. In this case, the second user terminal 12 can provide a link through which route guidance can be provided to third parties such as acquaintances or family members connected to the user's SNS account. In this case, the connection link for route guidance ends when the passenger arrives at the destination. Accordingly, the passenger's family or acquaintances can also share route information.

In addition, the route guidance executing unit 130 executes route guidance using the first destination information in the first user terminal 11, and when the second destination information is additionally input from the second user terminal 12, the first user Transmission to the terminal 11 can be blocked. In other words, if additional destination information is transmitted from the second user terminal 12 while route guidance is being executed in the first user terminal 11, this can be blocked. This is to maintain the currently executing route guidance. When second destination information is input from the second user terminal 12 while executing route guidance for the first destination information, the route guidance executing unit 130 displays a pop-up window or a guidance pop-up window in a form that cannot be transmitted to the second user terminal 12. A message can be provided.

In addition, the route guidance executing unit 130 executes route guidance using the first destination information in the first user terminal 11, and when the second destination information is additionally input from the second user terminal 12, the first user Approval can be checked using the terminal 11. In this case, if the driver of the first user terminal 11 approves, the second destination information is transmitted to the first user terminal 11 to re-execute the route guidance. This is to ensure that if a passenger wishes to change the destination information, the destination can be reset only if the driver approves it. The driver can select whether to receive destination information through the settings of the first user terminal 11, and it is also possible to receive it at any time.

Additionally, the route guidance executing unit 130 compares the location information of the first user terminal 11 and the location information of the second user terminal 12 to determine whether the distance exceeds a preset distance. When the distance difference between the first user terminal 11 and the second user terminal 12 exceeds the set value, the route guidance executing unit 130 transmits the location information of the second user terminal 12 to the first user terminal 11. Run route guidance using the destination. This is to move the vehicle 10 to the passenger's location in order to allow the passenger to board the vehicle 10. In this case, it is preferable that the second user terminal 12 is equipped with a GPS capable of providing location information. The passenger may obtain the identification code 20 exposed in a place other than the vehicle 10 using the second user terminal 12 and call the vehicle 10.

When the second user terminal 12 obtains the identification code 20, the advertising unit 140 may provide advertising information 200 by combining it with a web page where destination information is entered. Here, the advertising information 200 may be in the form of an image or video, and may be provided in the form of a pop-up or banner. The number or size of advertising information 200 inserted into a web page may vary depending on user settings. The advertising unit 140 is also capable of allowing destination information to be input after exposing the advertising information 200 for a certain period of time. Accordingly, advertising information 200 can be additionally provided to passengers of the second user terminal 12 and additional revenue can be generated.

In addition, the advertising unit 140 may preferentially display advertising information 200 around the destination using the destination information input by the passenger through the second user terminal 12. In this case, it is possible to provide advertising information 200 of businesses within a preset distance based on the destination information, and to provide additional advertising information 200 until the passenger reaches the destination. This is so that passengers can see advertising effects based on advertising information 200 of businesses around their destination.

Meanwhile, the compensation unit 150 provides a preset compensation means 300 when the passenger clicks on the advertisement information 200 through the second user terminal 12 or watches the advertisement information 200 for a preset time. do. In this case, it is also possible to accumulate compensation means 300 such as points and coupons by using the mobile communication number of the second user terminal 12 as an account. This compensation means 300 can also be used to process usage fees after using the vehicle 10.

In addition, the compensation unit 150 can provide continuous compensation by providing advertising information 200 through the second user terminal 12 even while the passenger is moving in the vehicle 10. Accordingly, it is possible to increase passenger participation in watching advertisements by providing compensation means 300 according to advertisement information 200 to passengers. The compensation unit 150 is also capable of limiting compensation payments when a passenger watches more than a preset number of pieces of advertising information 200. This is to prevent illegal use of indiscriminately clicking on the advertisement information (200) for the purpose of compensation (300).

Meanwhile, the vehicle navigation management server 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention may further include an evaluation unit 160.

The evaluation unit 160 manages evaluation information about drivers and passengers. For example, when the route guidance ends through the first user terminal 11, the driver can input evaluation information about the passenger. In this case, the evaluation information may include star ratings, reviews, etc. When the route guidance ends through the second user terminal 12, the passenger can input evaluation information about the driver. In this case, the evaluation information written by the passenger can be kept private from the driver and shared with other passengers. Accordingly, customer satisfaction can be improved by using evaluation information about drivers or passengers.

In addition, the evaluation unit 160 is also capable of generating evaluation information by receiving movement information such as driving path or speed in real time from the first user terminal 11 or the second user terminal 12. The evaluation unit 160 can generate quantitative evaluation information about the driver's driving by analyzing movement information to the destination based on information about the route guidance. For example, evaluation information can be generated using total driving time, average driving speed, number of signal violations, etc. This is to automatically generate and manage evaluation information based on the driver's vehicle 10 operation information.

In addition, the evaluation unit 160 may alert the second user terminal 12 when the location information of the first user terminal 11 deviates from the route in the route guidance while the route guidance is being executed using the destination information.
