The method and device of remote guide

The present invention relates to a remote guide apparatus and method, and more particularly, to a remote guide method and apparatus that can receive a tour or traffic guide service using a personal communication device such as a mobile phone.

With the development of transportation and communication, the market for tourism and leisure is expanding rapidly. In the tourism service industry, it is very important to promote and guide tourist attractions, and it is important for travelers to obtain information about tourist attractions.

In recent years, tourist information around the world can be accessed very easily through the Internet, but it is still applicable only to some people who use computers well.

Therefore, sightseeing in unknown places is very burdensome and difficult for the general public.

Therefore, mainly guided by a professional tour guide using a group tour. However, in the case of a group tour using a tour guide, it is very difficult for each individual to be guided in detail because a single guide usually guides a large number of tourists.

An object of the present invention is to provide a remote guide method and apparatus that can facilitate tourism and travel by providing a 1: 1 remote guide using a personal portable communication device such as a mobile phone to solve the problems of the prior art. There is.

In order to achieve the above object of the present invention, the method of the present invention includes allocating a remote guide service code corresponding to each guide location, and inputting a remote guide service code through a wireless communication network of a personal mobile communication device. Calling the system, reading the corresponding guide message from the database in response to the received remote guide service code, and transmitting the read guide message through the wireless communication network; And outputting a guide message received through the wireless communication network in the communication device.

The guide service code includes a guide service number, a station number indicating a guiding place, a number indicating each item of a guiding place, and a language used. The guide service number includes a tourist destination guide, traffic guide, accommodation guide, and restaurant guide number.

The device of the present invention is a personal mobile phone that outputs a sign indicating a remote guide service code corresponding to each guide place, wirelessly inputs the remote guide service code input, and outputs a guide message signal received through a wireless communication network as voice or text. And a remote guide service system that reads a corresponding guide message from a database and transmits the read guide message in response to a remote guide service code received through the wireless communication network.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 shows a configuration of a remote guide device according to the present invention. The apparatus of the present invention includes a front cover 10, a personal mobile communication device 20, a base station, a communication network 40, a remote guide system 50, and a database 52.

The sign 10 may be a ruin introduction bulletin board, a road traffic information board, a lodging facility, or a restaurant signboard installed at a specific place. In addition, the sign 10 may be a tourist information bulletin board, a tourist information map, such as an airport, a port, a station. These signs describe the remote guide service code 12.

It is preferable that the remote guide service code has the same configuration as that of the general wireless communication telephone number, that is, the service number 60, the station number, and the subscriber number 64. That is, as shown in Fig. 2, since the service number 60, for example, 01X is used as the wireless communication service number, it can be configured as 02X. 020 may be a tourist information service, 021 may be a traffic information service, 022 may be a accommodation information service, and 023 may be a restaurant information service.

The station number 62 is a four-digit telephone station number in charge of the telephone exchange of the information area, and the same configuration as the station of the current telephone number. The subscriber number 64 is composed of a four-digit three-digit guide item code and a one-digit language language selection code 68.

Therefore, up to 999 guide zones can be allocated to one station number. If all four digits are used as guide area codes without specifying a language, 9999 guide areas can be allocated per country. In the case of the four-digit guide area code, it is preferable to enter a language selection number after connection.

The guide area code is a tree node in which the item representing the information place is a parent node using a number of 100 units or 10 units, and the sub items included in the representative item are numbers of 10 or 1 child nodes. It is preferable. In other words, if Bulguksa is the representative item, it is set to 100. Cheongwoon Baegungyo included in Bulguksa is assigned to 101, Dabo Pagoda is 102, Shiga Pagoda is 103, Virojeon is 104, --- and so on.

Of course, if you add the country code assigned to each country before the guide service code, you can also receive international guide service.

The personal mobile communication device 20 includes mobile phones of 011 and 017, PCS phones of 016, 018 and 019, and two-way pagers such as 012 and 015. In addition, personal portable radio communication devices such as satellite communication terminals to be commercialized in the future may include all. In the personal portable communication device 20, when the remote guide service code is input, the call signal is coded and transmitted wirelessly using a normal calling method. In response to the radio call, the transmitted signal is received, demodulated and decoded to output a guide message by voice or text.

The remote guide system 50 is configured for each service number and is connected with the base station 30 through a communication network 40 such as a normal communication network, such as PSTN, PSDN or ISDN. The remote guide system reads the corresponding guide message from the database 52 according to the guide service code received through the communication network. The read message is transmitted to the personal mobile communication device 20 through the communication network 40.

The database 52 is composed of a guide item directory composed of a guide area directory according to a station number and a sub directory of the guide area directory. Guide message files for each language are constructed in the guide directory. Therefore, a corresponding message file corresponding to the requested language service is read by searching the corresponding directory according to the service code.

The operational effects of the present invention configured as described above will be described with reference to FIG. 3.

3 shows a communication system diagram for explaining a remote guide system according to the present invention.

Let's explain with an example that a foreigner tours Korea's Gyeongju Bulguksa by itself. First, foreigners can receive the guide information in their own language in advance by accessing the guide service code written in each place through their mobile phone in their own country. have.

After you arrive in Gyeongju, enter the guide service code on the signboard, bulletin board or guide map of the accommodation or restaurant to receive the accommodation and restaurant guide service. You can be guided by food and taste.

Therefore, we stay at a guided hotel and visit Gyeongju Bulguksa the next day. If you call the remote guide system by entering the guide service code displayed on the main bulletin board through the mobile phone at Bulguksa main gate, the guide system will be able to listen to the entire Bulguksa guide message in English.

You will be impressed with the relics.

The number for calling the guide system is the same as a normal telephone number, and when accessing the guide system, it is also possible to enter the guide service code indicated on the cover and select the service language, etc., according to the automatic response message provided by the guide system. . This method is cumbersome compared to the above-described embodiment.

As described above, in the present invention, if the user desires to use a personal mobile communication device such as a mobile phone, the user can receive a guide for the artifact or place immediately 1: 1 in the field by voice or text by connecting a guide system. You can easily enjoy sightseeing or traveling without a guide.
