  The communication unit 150 can perform wired or wireless data communication with an external network or an external device. In the present embodiment, the in-vehicle device 30 is connected to the information terminal 20 via the communication unit 150. For example, as illustrated in FIG. 6, the communication unit 150 can access the position information distribution site (or distribution server) 152 via the network NW and acquire the vehicle position information therefrom. In this case, position calculation using a GPS satellite by the position information calculation unit 110 or position calculation using a self-contained navigation sensor is not essential. Further, the communication unit 150 can access the map data distribution site 154 via the network NW and acquire necessary map data therefrom. In this case, the storage unit 160 does not necessarily need to store large-capacity map data, and can download and store necessary map data as appropriate via the network NW. Furthermore, the communication part 150 can access the coupon information distribution site 156 (equivalent to the server 10 of FIG. 1) which distributes coupon information via the network NW, and can acquire coupon information from there.

  The storage unit 160 can store application software executed by the control unit 170, a program, road map data required by the navigation unit 120, or the like. The road map data includes link data, node data, and facility data.

  In a preferred embodiment, the control unit 170 includes a microcontroller including a ROM, a RAM, and the like, and the ROM or the RAM can store various programs for controlling the operation of each unit of the in-vehicle device 30. In the present embodiment, the control unit 170 executes a coupon information presentation program 200 for presenting coupon information. For example, the coupon information presentation program 200 is linked with the operation of the navigation unit 120.

  FIG. 7 is a diagram showing a functional configuration of the coupon information presentation program 200. The coupon information presentation program 200 includes a coupon information acquisition unit 210, a coupon information storage unit 220, an expiration date determination unit 230, a coupon information deletion unit 240, and a coupon information presentation unit 250.

  The coupon information acquisition unit 210 acquires the coupon information associated with the position information of the information terminal 20 and the accompanying information transferred from the coupon information transfer unit 46 of the information terminal 20 via the communication unit 150. The coupon information storage unit 220 stores the acquired coupon information and its accompanying information in the storage unit 160. FIG. 8 is an example of a coupon information holding table stored by the coupon information storage unit 220. The coupon information holding table stores the acquired coupon information and its accompanying information in association with the position information of the information terminal 20. For example, when the location information transmitted from the information terminal 20 to the server 10 is (P1, Q1) and the coupon information acquired at that time is coupon information B, D, the coupon information B, D and its accompanying information A certain expiration date, store identification, and store location information (when included in the accompanying information) are stored in association with the location information (P1, Q1). Further, when the position information transmitted from the information terminal 20 to the server 10 is (P2, Q2) and the coupon information acquired at that time is the coupon information A, the coupon information A and its accompanying information are the position information (P2, Stored in association with Q2).

  The expiration date determination unit 230 determines whether or not the expiration date of the coupon information stored in the coupon information holding table has exceeded. Specifically, the expiration date determination unit 230 refers to clock information mounted on the in-vehicle device 30 and determines whether or not the expiration date of the coupon information has passed. This determination result is provided to the coupon information erasure unit 240.

  The coupon information erasure unit 240 erases the coupon information determined to have exceeded the expiration date by the expiration date determination unit 230 from the coupon information holding table of the coupon information storage unit 220. For example, if the current date and time is April 6, 2015, the coupon A information in FIG.

  The coupon information presentation unit 250 presents the coupon information held in the coupon information holding table. Therefore, the coupon information erased by the coupon information erasure unit 240 can no longer be presented. Although the coupon information presentation method is not particularly limited, for example, in the first presentation method, as shown in FIG. 9A, a coupon display button 260 for displaying coupon information is displayed on the display unit 130. When the user selects “Yes” on the coupon display button 260, the coupon information presenting unit 250 causes the display unit 130 to display coupon information based on the coupon information holding table. The display form of the coupon information is not particularly limited. For example, as shown in FIG. 9B, a coupon facility list 270 representing a list of facilities having coupon information and an identification 272 indicating that the coupon information is present there. Can be displayed. Preferably, the stores in the coupon facility list 270 are arranged in order of expiration date. The store of the coupon facility list 270 is associated with the facility data included in the road map data, and when the user selects any store, the map or attribute of the store can be displayed. Further, the identification 272 is associated with the coupon information holding table of FIG. 8, and when the user selects an arbitrary identification 272, the details of the coupon information can be displayed.

  In the second presentation method, the coupon information presentation unit 250 presents coupon information in conjunction with the facility display function of the navigation unit 120. The navigation unit 120 has a function of searching for a nearby facility, a function of setting a destination, and the like, and displays the facility when such a function is executed. When the facility is displayed, the coupon information presentation unit 250 refers to the coupon information holding table to determine whether the facility has coupon information. When the facility has coupon information, the corresponding facility is displayed. To present the presence or absence of coupon information. FIG. 10 shows an example of a facility search result. The display unit 130 displays a search facility list 280 and an identification 282 indicating that coupon information exists. Unlike the case of FIG. 9B, here, an identification 282 is attached only to the facility having coupon information.

  In another presentation method, for example, when the navigation unit 120 is activated or the engine is activated (when ACC is turned on), a coupon facility list 270 as shown in FIG. May be automatically displayed. Furthermore, the coupon list facility 270 may be automatically displayed when the information terminal 20 is connected to the in-vehicle device 30.

  In the display of the coupon facility list, an example of displaying a store and identification information indicating the presence or absence of coupon information is shown, but this is an example, and for example, the expiration date of coupon information may be displayed together. If the display space is sufficient, the contents of the coupon information may be displayed together. Moreover, the coupon information presentation part 250 can also present coupon information by voice from the voice output part 140. For example, a store having coupon information may be read aloud.

  Next, the operation flow of the information presentation system 1 of the present embodiment is shown in FIG. First, the store which issues coupon information transmits the said coupon information to the server 10, and the coupon information registration part 13 of the server 10 registers coupon information as shown to FIG. 2 (A) (S100). On the other hand, the information terminal 20 calculates the current location by the position information calculation unit 27 (S102), and the position information transmission unit 42 transmits the position information of the information terminal 20 to the server 10. When the server 10 receives the position information via the position information receiving unit 14, the server 10 searches for coupon information near the current position based on the position information received by the coupon information search unit 15 (S104). That is, the coupon information search unit 15 refers to the registration information of the coupon information registration unit 13 and searches for coupon information of stores that exist within a certain distance from the current position of the information terminal 20. Next, the coupon information transmission unit 16 transmits the searched coupon information and associated information (store identification, expiration date, etc.) to the information terminal 20.

  The information terminal 20 receives the coupon information and the accompanying information via the coupon information receiving unit 44 (S106), and then the coupon information transfer unit 46 receives the coupon information associated with the location information of the information terminal 20 and its accompanying information. Information is transferred to the in-vehicle device 30. In the in-vehicle device 30, the coupon information acquisition unit 210 acquires the coupon information and the accompanying information, and stores the coupon information and the accompanying information acquired by the coupon information storage unit 220 (S108). The coupon information storage unit 220 creates a coupon information holding table as shown in FIG. 8, for example. Next, the expiration date determination unit 230 determines whether there is any coupon information whose expiration date has exceeded (S110). If there is coupon information that has been exceeded, the coupon information is retained as coupon information. Erase from the table (S112). Next, the coupon information presentation unit 250 refers to the coupon information holding table according to the first to third presentation methods described above, and presents coupon information within the expiration date (S114).

  According to the present embodiment, since coupon information that has expired is automatically deleted and such coupon information is not presented, only coupon information within the expiration date can be notified to the user.

  In addition, since coupon information is held in advance in the in-vehicle device 30, information can be presented to the user based on the coupon information held in advance even in a situation where the information terminal 20 cannot communicate. At that time, since the coupon information expired based on the clock information in the in-vehicle device 30 is deleted, once the coupon information is held in the in-vehicle device 30, the management is performed as a stand-alone of the in-vehicle device 30. Can be done.

  In the present embodiment, the coupon information is searched and acquired based on the position information of the information terminal 20, but the coupon information may be acquired regardless of the position information. At that time, if there is no restriction, the coupon information may become enormous. For example, coupon information may be collected based on member registration information for a predetermined store included in the information terminal 20. good. This is convenient because it is possible to collect useful information for the user without limitation of distance.

  Transfer of coupon information to the in-vehicle device 30 is preferably performed when the connection between the information terminal 20 and the in-vehicle device 30 is confirmed. That is, if coupon information is transferred when the automobile engine is started, the user can operate the in-vehicle device 30 based on the latest coupon information. Thereafter, the coupon information may be transferred to the in-vehicle device 30 at a timing when the information terminal 20 acquires new coupon information or periodically.

  Further, the transfer of the coupon information to the in-vehicle device 30 may be performed when the user searches for a destination using the in-vehicle device 30. Thus, by transferring coupon information about a store having an attribute similar to the searched destination, it can be appropriately used as auxiliary information when the user selects a destination. At this time, it is preferable not to limit the distance information.

  The transfer timing to the in-vehicle device 30 described above may be performed in combination. For example, when the connection between the information terminal 20 and the in-vehicle device 30 is confirmed, coupon information of a store within a certain distance from the current position information is transferred to the in-vehicle device 30, and then the user uses the in-vehicle device 30. When the destination is searched, additional coupon information may be transferred. In this way, when the user operates the in-vehicle device 30 for the first time, the coupon information existing in the vicinity can be used to examine the destination store, and the store similar to the store defined here can be examined. By presenting coupon information regardless of distance, it is possible to search for a coupon with a higher value or to examine a route related to another destination.

  Next, a modification of the first embodiment will be described. In the said Example, although the example which arranges and displays coupon information in order with an expiration date near was shown, coupon information can be arranged according to the past utilization frequency of coupon information besides this. The usage frequency of coupon information is, for example, counting the number of times the user has selected identification of a store or coupon information on the screen displaying the coupon information shown in FIG. 9B or FIG. It can be used as information. Further, when the vehicle is turned to the store without using the in-vehicle device 30 and the engine is turned off and the engine is turned on in the store premises, it may be counted that the store is used. Alternatively, when the in-vehicle device 30 can acquire the usage frequency information for each user of the coupon information from the information terminal 20 or the server 10, the in-vehicle device 30 may arrange the coupon information based on the usage frequency information.

  Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. FIG. 12 is a block diagram showing a functional configuration of the coupon information presentation program 200A according to the second embodiment, and the same components as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals. The coupon information presentation program 200A includes a destination information acquisition unit 260, a coupon information determination unit 270, a similar facility search unit 280, and a destination re-presentation unit 290 in addition to those of the first embodiment. .

  When the navigation unit 120 is executed and the user sets a destination there, the destination information acquisition unit 260 acquires information regarding the set destination. Specifically, the facility information set at the destination is acquired. The coupon information determination unit 270 determines whether or not the facility set as the destination has coupon information based on the acquired destination information. For this determination, the coupon information holding table shown in FIG. 8 is used, and if the facility set as the destination is included in the coupon information holding table, it is determined that there is coupon information, and if it is not included, It is determined that there is no coupon information. When it is determined that there is coupon information, the coupon information presentation unit 250 displays an identification indicating that the facility set as the destination has coupon information on the destination setting screen or the like.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that there is no coupon information, the similar facility search unit 280 searches for similar facilities having coupon information. Specifically, referring to the coupon information holding table shown in FIG. 8, the facility has the same attributes as the facility set for the destination (for example, genre, classification, type, etc.) and has coupon information. Search for facilities. Furthermore, a facility within a certain range from the position of the facility set as the destination is searched. If a corresponding similar facility is found, the destination re-presentation unit 290 presents the similar facility as the destination, and displays an identification indicating that there is coupon information.

  FIG. 13 is a flowchart showing an operation of presenting coupon information according to the second embodiment.
