The service provisionable area is an area within a predetermined radius from the garage, and may refer to a first area, a second area, and a third area, as shown in FIG. 4.

The garage is a place where a plurality of vehicles 30 gather, and may be a place where inspection or maintenance of the vehicle 30 is performed. For example, the garage may be a parking lot in a building of a company that provides a mobile lounge service. Companies providing mobile lounge services may be hotels or airports. 4 illustrates a first garage, a second garage, and a third garage, but is not limited thereto. These garages can be located in several locations.

The vehicle 30 including the movable lounge may belong to a specific company that owns a specific garage, and may be disposed within a certain radius from the garage of a specific company.

In addition, the vehicle 30 including the mobile lounge may be disposed at a designated position within a certain radius from the garage. Even if it is within a certain radius from the garage, the vehicle 30 may not be disposed in all places due to reasons such as a geographic environment. The information on the area where the service can be provided may include location information where the vehicle 30 can be arranged.

Meanwhile, the information on the area where the service can be provided may include demand information of the mobile lounge vehicle 30 within a specific area. The demand information of the vehicle 30 may be determined based on the presence or absence of a tourist destination or a shopping mall in a specific area, a geographic environment, and the number of tourists visiting. For example, when tourist destinations and shopping malls are concentrated in the first area, there may be many tourists visiting the first area. Therefore, there may be a high demand for the mobile lounge vehicle 30 in the first area.

In addition, the server 10 may calculate an average amount of demand for the vehicle 30 based on the number of times the mobile lounge vehicle 30 is used for a certain period in a specific area. In addition, the demand amount of the vehicle 30 may be calculated based on the number of service request messages transmitted through the user terminal 20.

The server 10 may generate dispatch information so as to place the vehicle 30 in each region in proportion to the amount of demand for the vehicle 30 in each region. By arranging a plurality of vehicles 30 in advance before the user's service request is made, the user's accessibility can be improved. The server 10 may transmit the generated dispatch information to the plurality of vehicles 30 (303).

The dispatch information may include a designated location to which at least one vehicle from among the plurality of vehicles 30 moves, an entry time, and an exit time. The vehicle 30 having received the dispatch information may move to a designated location according to the entry time included in the dispatch information, and may stop at the designated location until the departure time to provide a service (304).

The user can manipulate the user terminal 20 to transmit a service request message to the server 10 (305). In addition, the user may transmit user information to the server 10 by manipulating the user terminal 20 (306). The service request message may include user information.

The user information may include a user's personal information, a user's current location, a service use plan location, a service use plan time, and a service option. The service option may include at least one of the type of service to be used by the user, the number of service users, and whether to use the vehicle alone. The type of service may include at least one of a rest service, a cargo storage service, and a cargo delivery service.

The server 10 may extract a vehicle capable of providing a service based on user information transmitted from the user terminal 20, information of at least one vehicle 30, and dispatch information (307 ). Specifically, the server 10 may extract a vehicle that satisfies the service option by comparing vehicle information within a service provision area with a service use plan location and service option transmitted from the user terminal 20.

For example, if the service use plan location is'Gyeongbokgung Palace' and the service option includes a break service and exclusive use, the server 10 is a vehicle located in a service provision area including'Gyeongbokgung Palace' ( 30), and the user can extract a vehicle 30 that can use the rest service alone. In this case, the server 10 may extract a vehicle capable of providing a service by determining a priority in the order of a location close to a service use scheduled location. In addition, the server 10 may exclude a vehicle that is already being used or requested to be used by another user from a vehicle capable of providing a service at a time overlapping with the service use scheduled time.

For another example, when the service usage plan location is'Gyeongbokgung Palace' and a cargo delivery service is included in the service option, the server 10 is a vehicle located in a service provision area including'Gyeongbokgung Palace' ( 30), and the vehicle 30 scheduled to return to the garage within a predetermined time may be extracted as a service capable vehicle.

When the service providing vehicle is extracted, the server 10 may transmit information on the extracted service providing vehicle to the user terminal 20 (308, 309). The server 10 may generate a list including information on a vehicle capable of providing a service and transmit it to the user terminal 20.

The user terminal 20 may receive information on a vehicle capable of providing a service from the server 10, display information on a vehicle capable of providing a service in a list, or display an icon of a vehicle capable of providing a service on a map of a service available area. have.

The information on a vehicle capable of providing a service may include at least one of a location of a vehicle capable of providing a service, a current use state, a waiting time, and an available service.

On the other hand, the server 10 may generate additional dispatch information for vehicles other than the currently dispatched vehicle when there is no service provisionable vehicle in the service provision available area including the service use scheduled location ( 308, 310). The server 10 may transmit the generated additional dispatch information to another vehicle (311), and control the vehicle 30 having received the additional dispatch information to move to a designated location according to the additional dispatch information (312). In addition, the server 10 may generate information on a vehicle capable of providing a service based on information on the vehicle 30 that has been additionally dispatched and transmit the information to the user terminal 20 (313).

The user may manipulate the user terminal 20 to input a selection message for a specific vehicle among vehicles capable of providing a service. For example, the user may select a vehicle close to the user and/or a vehicle with a short waiting time.

The user terminal 20 transmits a selection message for a specific vehicle to the server 10 (314). The server 10 may generate an access authentication code for the selected vehicle (315) and transmit the generated access authentication code to the user terminal 20 (316). The access authentication code may include at least one of a password, a barcode, and a matrix code.

The user can enter and exit the vehicle 30 using the access authentication code obtained through the user terminal 20.

When the number of vehicles in the first region is greater than or equal to the vehicle demand in the first region, the server 10 may generate dispatch information for the first region (503, 504).

When the number of vehicles in the first region is less than the vehicle demand in the first region, the server 10 may obtain vehicle information that can be supported from the second region among regions in which service is available (503, 505). In addition, the server 10 may generate vehicle dispatch information based on vehicle information in the first region and vehicle information that can be supported from the second region (506).

Referring to FIG. 4, vehicles 30 belonging to a first garage may be disposed in a first area, and the number of vehicles 30 disposed in the first area may be smaller than a demand amount of vehicles in the first area. In this case, the server 10 may determine a vehicle that is not in use among the vehicles 30 arranged in the second region and/or the third region as a supportable vehicle. The server 10 may generate vehicle dispatch information by using both vehicle information in the first region and vehicle information that can be supported from the second region and/or the third region.

The server 10 may transmit the generated dispatch information to each vehicle 30, and control the vehicles 30 to move to a designated location according to the dispatch information (507).
