Description

A system for providing content using a Wi-Fi identifier

The present invention relates to a system for providing content using a Wi-Fi identifier.

The present invention relates to a system for providing content using a Wi-Fi identifier. In the past, banks, hospitals, cafés, and government offices often provided magazines and newspapers for customers waiting to be provided with services. In many cases, only one newspaper or magazine was provided, and one or more newspapers and magazines were rarely provided because of cost.

In addition, there are cases where TVs are installed and cable TVs are turned on in stores, and banks often turn news or stock broadcasts or their own publicity broadcasts and cable TVs in beauty salons. However, the contents such as music videos and movies were often not provided due to the characteristics of the industry, and the contents of the videos were often not provided because they could cause copyright issues when they were played in public.

In connection with this, Korean Patent No. 10-2002-0013430 has been filed as a method and system for providing an electronic magazine using the Internet, and a book magazine is purchased by receiving data from a magazine company paid by a member. It is intended to be viewed in the same way as the magazine, but it is intended for individuals. It is far from the way of providing magazines in places such as banks and hospitals. There was a problem.

An object of the present invention is to provide a system for providing a variety of content, including magazines to customers in public places, lounges, banks, cafes, hospitals, and the like, to overcome the problems described above.

In order to achieve the above object, there is provided a system for providing contents using a Wi-Fi identifier, including a router providing a Wi-Fi connection and a storage device connected to the router, wherein the router provides a Wi-Fi service identifier provided by the router. If the customer selects the Wi-Fi Service Identifier using the name of the service provided as (SSID), it is connected to the router when the Wi-Fi Service Identifier is connected to the customer. Can provide. You can also do this as an app. When the app is clicked, the app will find the Wi-Fi signal set on the router and automatically expose the platform or the corresponding page.

Contents include various web novels in the form of e-books or e-books, web tunes, magazines, books, comic books, movies, TV, music, music videos, web dramas, entertainment programs, MCN personal broadcasting, etc. It may include.

The content providing server 21 connected through a router and the Internet stores the contract contents with the store in the contract DB 24, transmits the contents stored in the contents DB to the store server 23 according to the contract contents, and provides the number of times of providing the contents. Can be transferred to the usage history DB.

Each time a new content is sent to a customer, an advertisement stored in a separate store advertisement DB may be transmitted to the terminal of the customer for viewing.

The content providing server stores the MAC address and IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) value of the terminal connected from the individual store so that it can continuously use the previously used contents when accessing from other stores, and the router provides a streaming service for It may include a streaming service providing module.

By the configuration as described above, it is effective to provide a variety of content for each store with only a simple component.

1 shows a system according to the invention.

2 to 7 show an embodiment according to the present invention.

A system for providing content using a Wi-Fi identifier,

It includes a router that provides Wi-Fi access and storage that connects to the router.

The router provides a Wi-Fi Service Identifier (SSID) provided by the router using the name of the service so that when the customer selects the Wi-Fi Service Identifier, the router is connected to the router and received from the content providing server 21 to store the router internal storage device. Store server 23 for pre-stored content to the customer connected to the router by selecting any one of the Wi-Fi service identifier (SSID) and the service name (SSID) provided by the service name according to the content type System that provides contents using Wi-Fi identifier, which provides internet access service through Wi-Fi connection if necessary

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. 1 is a diagram showing an embodiment according to the present invention. Providing a service to a customer in the system according to the present invention may begin with accessing a Wi-Fi service provided in a store. Recently, most of mobile phones are smartphones, and in addition to smartphones, many products that can be used by connecting to Wi-Fi, such as tablets, are being used.

Conventionally, in order to provide services in conjunction with a store to provide content, a user accesses a separate web server to authenticate himself. They entered or entered a separate password (which can change daily) provided by the store to authenticate the visit.

However, this method had to build a web server, have various authentication methods, and it was difficult to apply in the case of a tablet without a built-in GPS.

However, in the present invention, the service is provided only when the Wi-Fi service provided by the store is accessed. When the Wi-Fi search is performed on the mobile phone, several SSIDs indicating the Wi-Fi service accessible from the place are displayed. Do it.

If you use the Wi-Fi service, you can connect directly without an additional IP address.Because of the characteristics of Wi-Fi, the service is stopped immediately without any action. It is not necessary to verify whether or not it is in the store by using a GPS or the like with low accuracy. In addition, when providing content such as movies, news, magazines, even if not connected to the Internet in real time, the service is possible because it is not necessary to connect to the original provider server of the content.

In addition, based on the Internet's unique IP used in the store, whitelist (reject all values and allow only the set value) policy allows access from the store through a system that cannot access our server unless it is the store's unique IP. Make the platform and content available to us only for those users who use it. In other words, the WIFI service is provided to the people in the store free of charge, so that only the people with the IP using the WIFI service can be connected so that a separate GPS or the like does not need to be located.

In addition, the SSID generated when searching for Wi-Fi may be used as a service category for using the service. For example, one SSID may be used to provide magazines and another SSID may be used to provide video content. In this way, SSIDs of various categories can be used as smart information centers.

It can be serviced by creating a category through the platform within one SSID, or categorized by SSID altogether, and can be serviced according to the installation location and access location through Wi-Fi mapping or location-based services, so that each site can be adapted to a different location through a different SSID. You can also provide the necessary information and content.

Referring to Figures 2, 3 and 4, you can see that the store Wi-Fi is divided by category. To do this, simply provide a basic SSID for Wi-Fi access in the store, find and select a service by category, and you can use the Wi-Fi provided by the same line anyway, but you can receive specialized contents by category.

In general, Wi-Fi service is required because users often access the Internet by accessing the contents, but by limiting the store, if the user prepares and provides the contents that are frequently used by the user, the need for users to access the Internet can be reduced. It is possible to provide content to the user even in an environment where it is not possible.

In addition, such a service may be provided in the form of providing content that is charged, but in the case of non-charged travel information, maps, brochures, or public information, the entire content may be provided. In particular, when distress or disaster occurs in national parks, mountains, sea, etc., you can search for SSIDs of public institutions and download evacuation tips, maps, etc., and report them immediately.

In addition, such a system may be more useful for people who do not have a lot of information about the area, such as travelers. Information centers for travelers at airports and railways have a limited number of people to handle per person. By providing information centers in such a way, information on maps, transportation, accommodations, etc. can be immediately provided by category, and information provided by travelers can be intuitively provided. 7 shows an example of such a smart information center.

2 shows an example of providing a magazine. When the SSID is selected in the store Wi-Fi, a display of several magazines is displayed and the magazine can be selected. In the related art, in the case of a general offline magazine (magazine), it is impossible to select one magazine by several people, but according to the present invention, several people may view the same magazine and may have various kinds of magazines. This is because even if you have a variety of magazines, you do not have to pay a fee for a magazine that is not actually seen by customers, and because the store owner pays a fee for the entire contents in advance, it is possible to have a variety of magazines. The store owner pays a fixed monthly service fee, and customers who visit the store will use all the contents free of charge. In addition, since the content stored in the router embedded server within the scope provided by the service provider to view the Internet, regardless of the communication environment, there is no data consumption, there is no additional content payment. Conventionally, even if a Wi-Fi service is provided, the user has to use a content that is separately paid by accessing a separate content server through a Wi-Fi service.

In addition, even if you use the magazine, the service is automatically stopped when you leave the store because the service is provided within the scope of the Wi-Fi service.

In addition, the content is not provided in the form of streaming from the server in real time from the server to the store, but can be provided in a state stored in the store server, it is easy to provide in real-time data service difficult trains, express buses, aircraft, and the like. In the case of an aircraft, it is difficult to provide a data service in real time, but in the case of an airplane, in the case of an airplane, data is not transmitted in real time and externally while on the ground. Selects the SSID and accesses the contents stored in the in-flight server to use the contents. Such usage records are stored in the store server 23 and are connected to the Internet so that the contents server 21 can be accessed. When the usage record DB (25) is updated.

If you want to use the general Internet access service using WIFI, such services can be provided, such services can be provided in trains, buses, etc. It is natural in offline stores that always have internet access. However, the present invention is different from the existing technology in that it is possible to provide a service without any inconvenience even in the conventional moving bus, train, airplane.

Even in poor communication environment such as KTX, high-speed train or subway, it is possible to use the service stored in the server inside the router instead of Wi-Fi using the communication company's communication network.

FIG. 3 illustrates providing an image. As shown in FIG. 2, the SSID may be selected after the SSID is selected in the store Wi-Fi. If there is a lot of time to wait for a long time, such as in a beauty salon, providing a video may be more advantageous than providing a publication. In the case of video, it is provided as a streaming service, not as a download. In the case of magazines, it is provided through a built-in web server provided by a router. Customers do not have ownership of the content but have a right to view it through a store owner. This is different from the form of publication. This can prevent a situation in which the content is copied unilaterally. When providing the content, the store can obtain a profit for maintaining the service by providing an advertisement on the access screen, before or after providing the content, or by providing an advertisement with the content.

In order to provide the contents, the contents providing server 21 stores the contents that can be provided in the contents DB 22 and transmits the contents to the store server 23 which is a router installed in each individual store. At this time, the content providing server 21 classifies the content provided according to the type of contract with each store. The content providing server 21 may give a difference to the content provided according to the contract type such as magazines, movies, and cartoons. Or the number of exposures. The content that can be provided to each store is transmitted to the store server 23 with reference to the contract DB 24 for each store connected to the content providing server 21. The content providing server 21 includes a usage history DB 25 to store the usage history for each store and to store the usage history for each customer to provide differentiated content for each customer at the next use. Personal information can not be stored separately because it is connected using Wi-Fi. However, since the MAC address of the WLAN card stored in a mobile phone or tablet is unique, the MAC address is used as an index to store the usage history. More granular content can be provided. This service can be made possible without the user's personal information by allowing the user to continue watching the movie last time or to reopen the page of the magazine. In addition, it is possible to provide separate recommended content through the reading history in each store. 4, 5, and 6 show a product proposal of this service.

The content server contracts with the content provider, stores the content in the content server, stores the content in each store server, and charges the store according to the usage history. Therefore, the conventional service user pays separately from each content provider. In the case of using the corresponding content, according to the present invention, the content provider does not need to make a payment with the individual users by contracting with the content server, and the users also use it free of charge. This is illustrated in FIG.

The smart sign shown in FIG. 6 has a built-in router inside a signboard of a store or an advertisement standing outside of the store, and performs a Wi-Fi search toward the advertisement. 1) Store information, discount information, menus, reservations, etc. through the platform is available immediately. 2) It is possible to expose the site through the redirect landing page. 3) Various types of event participation, promotions, coupons, etc. can be provided and used in stores.

The store server 23 may be configured as a separate PC, but can be simply configured as a storage device (integrated, hi-fi storage router) connected to the router and the router installed in the store. Since the present invention is not a form of access using a web address, but a service provided only to people within a distance that can be accessed via Wi-Fi by visiting a store, it is possible to connect to a router without requiring a separate server. Do. However, in order to provide contents other than a simple download without a server such as a PC, a web server needs to be embedded in a router, and a streaming service may include a module for providing a separate streaming service. In recent years, providing a streaming service in a web server is a simple technology, and if there is no blind spot of Wi-Fi in the store, there is no fear of breaking the service.

In addition, when the user selects the Wi-Fi SSID to access the smartphone, the smartphone accesses the Wi-Fi without using content prepared in the store, it is also possible to freely surf the web while the Wi-Fi is connected.

In addition, by reducing the cost of maintaining the store (installation place, public place, transportation, etc.) by displaying an advertisement page after the customer finishes using the content or before using the content, the advertisement page is replaced. can do.

In addition, after selecting the SSID, customers can enter a separate password for access. This is to prevent unauthorized access by third parties who may be near the store, and the password can be posted in the store or notified separately. It may be.

Figure 8 shows another embodiment according to the present invention to access by using the SSID or to easily find and access the SSID through the app and then access the platform divided by category to use the content. Ads can go in between these processes, and the app can be used to easily find the SSID. If you use the app, you can search the designated Wi-Fi signal to conveniently access the platform. Since irrelevant Wi-Fi signals can be retrieved, there is a need for a service that automatically finds Wi-Fi signals according to this service. In addition, the SSID may be divided into categories of provided contents without using the SSID as the name of the store in the store.

Figure 10 shows an example used in the subway, in addition to simply providing a Wi-Fi service, not only can provide various types of content to people using the subway, but also forms of advertising before or after accessing the service or using the content. This will not only provide spam advertisements provided by the existing beacons as in the prior art, but also quickly access information such as subway accidents, fires, delays, etc. to those who are connected to the same Wi-Fi service. 11 shows a form in which a service according to the present invention is used.
