The control unit 180 can display the last train information about the subway in the pop-up window 901. [ In the pop-up window 901, a time required for arrival to a specific place for using the last car is described.

Meanwhile, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the last traffic information of the specific transportation means may be informed by the output of the audio signal through the audio output module 152 or may be informed by the vibration output through the alarm unit 153.

In addition, the control unit 180 may recommend a moving speed to a specific place for using the last train of the specific transportation means based on the current speed. For example, the control unit 180 may suggest that the user move to the breaking news when the user is unable to reach the specific place by the last walking time. The current moving speed can be obtained based on the position information received through the position information module 115. [

In addition, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the user can input his or her own moving speed in the walking moving section and refer to the moving speed calculation. For example, if you are walking, you can enter 4 km per hour. If you are breaking news, 6 km per hour. If you are running, you can get 8 km per hour. In this case, it is also possible to calculate the possible time by specifying the maximum allowable value for the interval such as running. For example, in the case of running, it is possible to move only up to 200 m, while in the case of running the power, it can be set to be movable up to 70 m. As described above, the moving speed of the controller 180 can be suggested through the movement mode stored through the user input. For example, if the Gangnam station should arrive within 5 minutes to use the subway train, the control unit 180 may suggest a breaking news.

Meanwhile, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the control unit 180 may perform a route guidance to a specific place for using the last car. FIG. 10 shows such an example. As shown in the figure, the controller 180 may display a route guidance screen from the current position to a specific place for using the last train on the basis of the received location information.

 Meanwhile, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the mobile terminal 100 can inform the user of a dangerous period in which the last traffic of the specific transportation means is difficult to use based on the current traveling speed and / or traffic information.

11 is a view showing a screen in which a danger zone having difficulty in using a last car is displayed in a mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown, the controller 180 can notify the danger zone 1101 through an alarm and inform the user of the route to be moved when the trail time approaches the route retrieved by the route search algorithm. At this time, the dangerous section 1101 may be displayed so as to be distinguished from other sections. For example, you can emphasize to the user by making the size different from other segments or by displaying different colors. Also, the dangerous period may include a transfer interval. However, it is often the case that it is difficult to use the last train of transportation to be used in the transit section. For example, there is time to take the last train to subway line 2 from Gangnam station to the shrine. However, if the last train of subway line 4 to Ichon is dangerous, it can be a danger zone.

In addition, although not shown, the control unit 180 may notify a user of a specific location even if a particular mode of transportation does not last but a few.

Meanwhile, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the mobile terminal 100 can inform the user of information for delaying the danger zone (referred to as 'last-barriering risk prevention information' for convenience). The information may be embedded in the mobile terminal 100 or received from a specific server.

FIG. 12 shows a diagram for displaying last-last-risk prevention information in a mobile terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown, the control unit 180 may display information for making use of a specific transportation means at a specific place so as not to be late for a dangerous period. For example, the user can display a pop-up window 1201 showing the name of the subway line 2 train and the boarding time through the Gangnam station, as information for allowing the user to board a train in the Ichon area, which is the last train in the temple.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, in order to use the specific traffic means in the danger zone, the trailing-edge danger prevention information may be different from the specific traffic means from the current position to the danger zone . For example, the control unit 180 may display a pop-up window 1301 that displays information indicating that a taxi can be easily accessed from the current location of Gangnam to the shrine when the last stop of the street is dangerous. In addition, the controller 180 may propose another means of transportation when the last stop in a specific section is terminated. For example, when a subway train is broken, it can inform the user of the estimated cost of moving to a transportation system such as a taxi. In this case, when the mobile terminal 100 selects the taxi transfer, the mobile terminal 100 can automatically call the caller at a time when the subway train can be used in another section where the last terminal is not disconnected. In addition, if there is a means of transportation that requires reservation in the middle of moving as in a taxi, it is possible to make a reservation in accordance with the time when the subway train can be used automatically in other sections where the last service is not disconnected.

Meanwhile, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the mobile terminal 100 can suggest more preferable transportation means in a specific section using specific traffic information (for example, TPEC information). Such an example is shown in Fig. Figs. 14A and 14B are diagrams showing a screen in which pop-up windows 1401 and 1403, which are proposed for more preferable transportation means due to a specific traffic situation, are displayed. Even if the last trail of a specific transportation means is still available, if a specific traffic situation is difficult to use in a certain section due to a specific traffic situation, or if a delay may occur due to a specific traffic section, I will.

Meanwhile, the mobile terminal 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention can estimate the travel time using the traffic information system and inform the user of the travel time, such as a bus or a taxi, when the travel time is large.

Meanwhile, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the mobile terminal 100 can notify the user of how many transportation means are available even if it is not the last time. For example, you can set an alarm when there are three remaining to the last train. In this case, the control unit 180 can inform the user through the alarms up to the last, last, and last two cars. In addition, the controller 180 may notify the user of the last remaining time (after a predetermined time) several minutes later. Also, the control unit 180 may calculate the transportation cost according to the last route, and notify the user.

In addition, the control unit 180 may display the remaining transportation by making the color different for the route bus having various routes having the same destination, such as a bus.

In addition, when there are a plurality of transportation means facing the same destination, the controller 180 can display it at a time. In this case, the control unit 180 can display the most recommendable transportation means based on the traffic information. Such an example is shown in Fig. As shown, currently available means of transportation are bus 306, bus 307, bus 308 and subway. And bus 306, the most recommended means of transportation, is displayed at the front of the bus. For example, bus 306 may be recommended if bus 306 is the most frequent and the route to the destination is the least. Also, although not shown, the number of remaining transportation means may be displayed through the color of the displayed transportation means.

Meanwhile, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the user can give priority to the transportation means through the mobile terminal 100 and use it for the last route search. For example, the path of a bus can be searched to the maximum extent possible, and the search can be performed when it is impossible to use the last train of another transportation means. Also, the route used by the bus can be completely excluded.

In addition, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the mobile terminal 100 can display the time when the mobile terminal 100 is lowered and the time when the mobile terminal 100 is in a transit-requiring period. Such an example is shown in Fig. The screen shows the time to board a train in Gangnam, the time to get off the train at the shrine, and the time to board a bus at Chongjin. Using the above information, the user can arrive at the destination at a lower cost without missing the last time of public transportation.

Further, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the above-described method can be implemented as computer-readable code on a medium on which a program is recorded. The computer readable medium includes all kinds of recording devices in which data that can be read by a computer system is stored. Examples of the computer-readable medium include ROM, RAM, CD-ROM, magnetic tape, floppy disk, optical data storage, and the like, and also implemented in the form of a carrier wave (for example, transmission over the Internet) . In addition, the computer may include a control unit 180 of the terminal.
