Description

  The present invention relates to a vehicle service providing system that provides a service from a vehicle side to a user of a mobile terminal when an electronic device mounted on the vehicle is remotely operated by a mobile terminal carried by the user.

In the vehicle service providing system, when the user operates the mobile terminal in order for the user to find his or her own vehicle (own vehicle) from among a plurality of vehicles parked in a parking lot such as a department store, the own vehicle There is known one that provides services such as blinking hazards (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
JP 2006-58218 A

  By the way, since the above service (hazard blinking operation) is executed only for a certain period of time after the mobile terminal is operated, the hazard blinking operation ends before the user of the mobile terminal searches for the vehicle. was there.

  When the user cannot find the own vehicle as described above, the user cannot get on the vehicle. Therefore, the user blinks the hazard by operating the portable terminal again to find the own vehicle. At this time, the user feels troublesome to operate the portable terminal again.

  In view of the above points, an object of the present invention is to improve the convenience of a vehicle service providing system.

  In order to achieve the above object, the invention according to claim 1 provides a service from the vehicle side to the user when an electronic device mounted on the vehicle is remotely operated by a portable terminal possessed by the user. In the vehicle service providing system to be provided, the mobile terminal detection unit detects the current position of the mobile terminal, and the vehicle detection unit detects the current position of the vehicle.

  When a remote operation command for remotely operating the electronic device is transmitted from the mobile terminal, the distance calculation means is detected by the current position of the mobile terminal detected by the mobile terminal detection means and the vehicle detection means. Based on the current position of the vehicle, the distance between the vehicle and the mobile terminal is calculated, and the service content setting means is a service content to be provided to the user from the vehicle side based on the distance calculated by the distance calculation means. Set.

  According to the invention described in claim 1 as described above, since the content of the service is set according to the distance between the mobile terminal and the vehicle, the service is provided to the user before the user reaches the vehicle. Can be expected to be provided reliably. Therefore, the user can be prevented from re-operating the mobile terminal, and the convenience of the vehicle service providing system can be improved.

Further, the invention according to claim 2 is characterized in that the service is a service for notifying the vehicle surroundings of the presence of the vehicle.
According to this, as the distance between the vehicle and the mobile terminal becomes longer, the service provision time (notification time to the surroundings of the vehicle) is set longer, so that the user can wait until the service ends. You can expect to find a vehicle.

  In the third aspect of the invention, the service content setting means sets the service provision time based on the distance calculated by the distance calculation means and the moving speed of the user holding the mobile terminal. Features.

  Thus, according to the third aspect of the present invention, since the service provision time is set using two parameters, the distance and the moving speed, as parameters, the arrival time required for the user to reach the vehicle is more accurately determined. The service provision time suitable for the user can be set.

  In the invention according to claim 4, when it is determined that the distance calculated by the distance calculation unit is greater than or equal to a predetermined value, and when the determination unit determines that the distance is greater than or equal to a predetermined value, Informing means for notifying the user of the portable terminal to that effect is provided.

Thereby, the user who has a portable terminal can know that the vehicle exists in the position away from self (portable terminal) more than predetermined distance.
Further, as described in claim 5, the notifying means guides the route from the portable terminal to the vehicle as the notifying operation to the user, so the user is confused about the route from the current position (portable terminal) to the vehicle. You can move without
