Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve the problems wherein, when being carried past a destination, a time loss is caused, with a background that almost all commuters in the Metropolitan area commute by train, and that many commuters have an experience of being carried past the destination, and especially when missing the last train, returning home on the day becomes impossible, to thereby suffer a disadvantage caused by an additional expense. <P>SOLUTION: When approaching or reaching a destination or a destination station, an alarm in a cellular phone is rung, and thereby attention is called to a possessor of the cellular phone, to thereby prevent being carried past the destination in a train by a nap. Hereby, a user can avoid a time loss or a financial disadvantage. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT

Description

本発明は、携帯電話機のGPSを利用したアラームの機能に関する。The present invention relates to an alarm function using GPS of a mobile phone.

GPSは米国防省により開発された人工衛星による測位システムであるが,民間利用者にも開放され,手軽で信頼性の高い測位システムとして,近年、携帯電話の主要な要素として急速に普及してきている。現在、携帯電話におけるGPSの主な用途は、以下の通りである。
イ)現在位置の表示
ロ)現在位置から目的地までのナビゲーション
ハ)現在位置の近くの商業施設の情報提供
ニ)指定した携帯端末の現在位置の表示
GPS is a satellite-based positioning system developed by the US Department of Defense, but it is also open to private users, and as a simple and reliable positioning system, it has rapidly spread as a major element of mobile phones in recent years. Yes. Currently, the main applications of GPS in mobile phones are as follows.
A) Displaying the current location b) Navigation from the current location to the destination c) Providing information on commercial facilities near the current location d) Displaying the current location of the specified mobile terminal

首都圏のほとんどの勤労者は、電車により通勤している。通勤時間が長く、平日は睡眠不足を電車内での居眠りにより補っている者も多いといわれている。また、帰宅時には疲労や飲酒などから居眠りをすることも多い。居眠りは、半分意識があるため、目的地の駅に到着したときにたいていの場合気付くものであるが、これは確実ではない。実際、多くの通勤者が目的地を乗り過ごした経験があるといえる。目的地を乗り過ごした場合、気がついた時点から、電車を逆方向に乗り換え、目的地まで戻らなければならないため、時間的な損失がある。また、終電車において乗り過ごした場合、当日中に帰宅できず、宿泊、タクシーなど追加的な出費による不利益を被ることもある。
本発明は、このような居眠りによる電車の乗り過ごしを防止することが目的である。
Most workers in the metropolitan area commute by train. The commuting time is long, and it is said that many people make up for lack of sleep by sleeping on the train on weekdays. Also, when I come home, I often fall asleep because of fatigue or drinking. A nap is half-conscious and is usually noticed when you arrive at the destination station, but this is not certain. In fact, many commuters have experienced overcoming their destinations. If you miss your destination, you have to lose time because you have to change your train in the opposite direction and return to your destination. Also, if you miss the last train, you may not be able to go home during the day, and you may suffer from additional expenses such as accommodation and taxi.
An object of the present invention is to prevent the train from being overtaken due to such a nap.

本発明では、目的地または目的地の駅に接近した時に携帯電話のアラームを鳴らすことにより、携帯電話の所有者に注意を促し、居眠りによる電車の乗り過ごしを防止する。
これを実現するため、携帯電話に以下の一連の機能を装備する。
イ)目的地の何メートル手前でアラームを鳴らすかを事前に登録する
ロ)目的地を入力する
ハ)GPSにより、現在位置を取得する
ニ)プログラムにより、ロ)の目的地とハ)の現在位置の距離を算出する
ホ)イ)で事前に登録しておいた距離とニ)で算出した距離を比較し、ニ)で算出した距 離が短ければ、目的地に接近したと判断する
ヘ)もし、目的地に接近していれば、アラームを鳴らし、本機能を終了する
ト)もし、まだ目的地に接近していなければ、ハ)以下を繰り返す
In the present invention, an alarm of a mobile phone is sounded when approaching a destination or a station at the destination, thereby alerting the owner of the mobile phone and preventing the train from being oversleeping.
To achieve this, mobile phones are equipped with the following series of functions.
B) Register in advance how many meters before the destination the alarm will be sounded b) Enter the destination c) Obtain the current location by GPS d) Program and b) Destination and c) Current Calculate the position distance e) Compare the distance previously registered in b) with the distance calculated in d), and if the distance calculated in d) is short, it is determined that the vehicle has approached the destination. ) If it is approaching the destination, it will sound an alarm and terminate this function.) If it is not yet approaching the destination, c) Repeat the following

本発明を装備した携帯電話の利用者は、居眠りをしていてもアラームにより目的地への接近を知ることができる。このことにより、利用者は、居眠りによる電車の乗り過ごしを予防し、時間的な損失、金銭的不利益を避けることができる。The user of the mobile phone equipped with the present invention can know the approach to the destination by an alarm even if he is asleep. As a result, the user can avoid overtaking the train due to falling asleep and avoid time loss and financial disadvantage.

本発明は、携帯電話に装備して利用することを想定しているが、実装にあたっては、以下のような方式がある。
チ)ファームウェアへの実装
携帯電話のファームウェアに本発明の制御ロジックを実装し、利用に供する。
リ)アプリケーションソフトウェアとしての実装
一般に、iアプリ、EZアプリなどと呼ばれる方式で、本発明の制御ロジックをアプ リケーションソフト形式にし、携帯電話上にダウンロードして、利用に供する。
Although the present invention is assumed to be used by being mounted on a mobile phone, there are the following methods for mounting.
H) Implementation in firmware The control logic of the present invention is implemented in the firmware of a mobile phone for use.
B) Implementation as application software Generally, the control logic of the present invention is converted into application software format by a method called i-appli, EZ-appli, etc., and downloaded to a mobile phone for use.

また、本発明の応用としては、以下のような利用方法がある。
イ)ナビアラーム
目的地を指定しておき、目的地に接近した際にアラームを鳴らし、ユーザーに知らせ る基本的な利用方法である。
ロ)乗換ナビアラーム
目的地到着までに乗換を要する場合に、乗換のタイミング毎にアラームを鳴らし、ユ ーザーに乗り換えを促す利用方法である。
ハ)到着時刻ナビ
携帯電話から取得した目的地および現在位置の情報から、路線情報や時刻表などの外 部情報を利用して予想到着時刻(または、予想乗換時刻)までの時間を表示し、ユー ザーに注意を促す利用方法である。
The application of the present invention includes the following utilization methods.
B) Navigation alarm This is a basic usage method that specifies a destination, sounds an alarm when it approaches the destination, and informs the user.
B) Transfer navigator alarm This is a method of using an alarm at each transfer timing to prompt the user to transfer if a transfer is required before arrival at the destination.
C) Arrival time navigation Displays the time from the destination and current location information obtained from the mobile phone to the expected arrival time (or expected transfer time) using external information such as route information and timetables. This is a usage method that alerts the user.

携帯電話は、ひろく普及している。また、多くの勤労者にとって電車通勤は必須である。また、首都圏への通勤圏は広がっているため、長時間の通勤をする勤労者数も増大している。
一方、居眠りによる電車の乗り過ごしを防止するための効果的な方法は無い。
これらのことから、本発明の需要は高いと考えられる。
よって、携帯電話の開発メーカーにとって、本発明は積極的に採用されると考えられる。
Mobile phones are widely used. Also, train commuting is essential for many workers. In addition, since the commuting area to the Tokyo metropolitan area is expanding, the number of workers who commute for a long time is also increasing.
On the other hand, there is no effective method for preventing the train from being overdone due to falling asleep.
From these facts, the demand for the present invention is considered high.
Therefore, it is considered that the present invention is positively adopted for mobile phone development manufacturers.
