Each user terminal 100-1, 100-2, ......, 100-N is equipped with various functions such as a smartphone or various programs (for example, mobile apps, etc.) can be freely installed and installed. It may be an intelligent terminal, and a device for providing a photo print camera application (that is, a device for providing a photo print camera application).

The first user terminal 100-1 includes a communication module 110, a memory 120, a processor 130, and a camera module 140. The configuration of the user terminal 100-1 may be equally implemented in other user terminals 100-2,..., 100 -N.

The communication module 110 performs data communication with the photo print service server 200, the photo print company terminal 300, and the photo print kiosk 400, respectively, under the control of the processor 130. In addition, the communication module 110 may control other user terminals 100-2,..., 100-in order to perform operations related to photographing and printing services using the shared film under the control of the processor 130. Direct communication with N) is also possible.

The memory 120 stores a photo print camera application program. The photo printing camera application program stored in the memory 120 is driven by the processor 130.

In this case, the memory 120 refers to a nonvolatile storage device that maintains stored information even when power is not supplied, and a volatile storage device that requires power to maintain stored information.

In addition, the memory 120 may perform a function of temporarily or permanently storing data processed by the processor 130. Here, the memory 120 may include a magnetic storage media or a flash storage media in addition to the volatile storage that requires power to maintain the stored information, but the scope of the present invention is limited thereto. It doesn't happen.

The processor 130 executes a photo printing camera application program stored in the memory 120, and controls an overall operation for providing a photographing and printing service using a shared film.

To this end, the processor 130 may include at least one processing unit (CPU, micro-processor, DSP, etc.), random access memory (RAM), read-only memory (ROM), or the like, and may include the memory 120. The program stored in the memory may be read into the RAM and executed through at least one processing unit. In addition, according to an embodiment, the term 'processor' may be interpreted to have the same meaning as the terms 'controller', 'operation device', and 'control unit'.

A schematic procedure of a photo printing service using a shared film provided through a photo printing camera application according to an embodiment of the present invention is as follows.

The user purchases a virtual film capable of capturing and storing a plurality of photographs online through a photo printing camera application executed on the user terminal 100-1. In this case, the virtual film purchase may mean that the payment for the printing service for the photo data stored in the film is paid.

In addition, the virtual film to be described below can be used by a plurality of users (that is, members) to share a single virtual film, each composed of a plurality of slots in which the photo data is stored. Hereinafter, the virtual film shared by a plurality of members will be referred to as a 'shared film'. For reference, in addition to shared films shared with other users, users can purchase and use virtual films (that is, non-shared films) that can be used by the user alone. Same or similar to that.

Next, the user selects the shared film purchased through the user terminal 100-1 and takes a picture through the photo print camera application. When a predetermined number of slots included in the shared film are exhausted or at the user's option, a photo print service for the photo data of at least one slot stored in the shared film or the shared film is requested by the photo printing camera application. The server 200, the photo printing company terminal 300, and the photo printing kiosk 400 are transmitted to the server 200.

In order to provide such a photo printing camera application, the processor 130 performs the following processes according to the execution of the photo printing camera application program.

The processor 130 provides a photographing user interface that allows the user to take a picture by using a shared film that is shared with one or more other members, each of which includes a plurality of slots in which the picture data is stored. The user interface provided through the photo print camera application is a concept that includes a graphical user interface (GUI).

In addition, the processor 130 stores the photo taken through the camera module 140 in an unused slot among the plurality of slots of the shared film and exhausts the corresponding slot. In addition, the processor 130 transmits the slot-specific photo data stored in the shared film to at least one of the interlocked photo printing service server 200, the photo printing company terminal 300, and the photo printing kiosk 400 to be a member of the shared film. Make sure your photos are printed.

At this time, the processor 130 transmits the usage slot information on the exhausted slot to the photo print service server 200 every time the photo is taken using the shared film on the photo print camera application. This is so that the exhaustion process for the corresponding slot (that is, the exhausted slot) is also performed in the user terminals of the members who use the shared film. In addition, the processor 130 receives, in real time, the shared information about the exhausted slot as the shared film is used on the user terminal of another member from the photo print service server 200. Accordingly, the processor 130 synchronizes the exhaustion process of the slot corresponding to the shared information (ie, information about the slot used by another user) on the corresponding shared film.

A method of providing a photo print service through the photo print camera application will be described in more detail with reference to FIGS. 2 to 7 below.

The photo print service server 200 processes operations for a photo print service in association with a photo print camera application running on each user terminal 100-1, 100-2,..., 100 -N. .

As shown in FIG. 1, the photo printing service server 200 includes a communication module 210, a memory 220, and a processor 230.

The communication module 210 communicates data with the user terminals 100-1, 100-2,..., 100 -N, the associated photo printing company terminal 300, and the photo printing kiosk 400, respectively. To process.

The memory 220 stores a photo printing service program for providing a photo printing service using a shared film to the user terminals 100-1, 100-2,..., 100 -N.

The processor 230 executes a program stored in the memory 220, but performs a process corresponding to each operation of the photo print camera application program processed by the processor 130 of the user terminal 100-1 to be described below. do.

The processor 230 matches and stores user identification information, purchased shared film information, and identification information for each member who shared the shared film for each user terminal that purchased the shared film. At this time, the processor 230 receives a shared film purchase request including identification information of the selected shared film, the number of members to share, and information for each other member to share from any user terminal, and identifies the identification information and members of the selected shared film. The number of pieces and information for each member can be matched and stored. In addition, the processor 230 may issue a newly generated shared coupon number for the selected shared film to the user terminal that has transmitted the shared film purchase request, and may further store the shared coupon number by matching the shared coupon number to the information of the shared film.

Then, the processor 230 receives the shared film purchase permission including the shared coupon number for the corresponding shared film from all the user terminals of the other members, and then transmits the share approval information to the user terminal that has sent the share film purchase request. The payment process for the shared film can be performed. In this case, the processor 230 transmits a shared film purchase approval request for the shared film to the user terminals of other members based on previously stored information for each member. In response to the shared film purchase approval request, the processor 230 receives a shared film purchase permission including a shared coupon number for the corresponding shared film from all other user terminals for each member, and transmits the previously shared film purchase request. The payment approval for the shared film may be performed by transmitting the sharing approval information to the user terminal. As another example, the processor 230 purchases a shared film of any one type of a pop-up message output through a photo print camera application of another member's user terminal, a message transmitted in a predetermined communication method, and a message added to a notification window. An authorization request can also be sent. In this case, the processor 230 receives a shared film purchase permission corresponding to the shared film purchase approval request from the user terminals of other members, and then transmits the shared approval information to the user terminal that has sent the shared film purchase request to the corresponding shared film. The payment process for may proceed.

The processor 230 receives a photo print request including photo data stored in at least some of the plurality of slots of the shared film from a user terminal registered in advance. At this time, the processor 230 confirms the identification information of the plurality of other members stored in advance with respect to the shared film requested to print the photo, and based on the identified identification information of the other members, the processor 230 photographs the shared film to the user terminals of the corresponding members. Send a data request. The processor 230 receives slot-specific photo data used in the shared film from at least one of the user terminals of the corresponding members in response to each request for the photo data transmitted. Accordingly, the processor 230 collects and manages the slot-specific photo data of the shared film used by all members in response to the photo print request for the shared film received from any user terminal.

In addition, the processor 230 performs a preset photo printing process when reception of photo data for all slots of the shared film requested for photo printing is completed. For example, the photo print process may request a photo print request including photo data of all slots of the corresponding shared film and delivery information of all members to the photo print company terminal 300 or the photo print kiosk 400 associated with the photograph. It may be to transmit.

Operations processed by the processor 230 are not limited to interworking with any one user terminal, and may be interlocked with all connected user terminals.

On the other hand, the photo printing company terminal 300 and the photo printing kiosk 400 is a device that is operated or installed in any place, respectively, the user terminals (100-1, 100-2, ..., 100-) N) or via the photo print service server 200 receives the virtual film provided (ie, shared film or non-shared film but including a plurality of photo data).

The print company and the photo print kiosk 400 operating the photo print company terminal 300 each perform a photo print operation according to the virtual film received by the user, and package the printed photo goods to be set for each virtual film. The information can be used to process the delivery. In addition, the print shop or photo print kiosk may deliver the packaged photo goods to the user who has visited offline.

Hereinafter, the overall functions of the photo print camera application provided under the control of the processor 130 of the user terminal 100-1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3.

2 is an example of a user interface provided through a photo print camera application according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 2, the processor 130 may output a first region P10 in which an image corresponding to a slot to be used currently among a plurality of slots of a shared film is output, and a second photograph in which a photograph taken through the camera module 140 is output. Provides a photo shooting user interface including an area P20, a third area P30 indicating the remaining number of slots available in the virtual film, and a fourth area P40 through which a shooting button for controlling camera shooting is output. do. In this case, the picture capturing user interface may further include a fifth area P50 for outputting a comment input button for allowing a user to input and record a comment on the captured picture.

When photographing is performed through the camera module 140 on the photo printing user interface, the processor 130 assigns a photo output in the second area P20 to a slot corresponding to the image output in the first area P10. To deal with the exhaustion of the slot. In this case, each time the slot of the shared film is exhausted, the processor 130 subtracts and displays the remaining slot number in the third area P30. In addition, when the processor 130 receives the sharing information according to the use of the slot by another member of the corresponding shared film from the photo printing service server 200, the number of remaining slots in the third area P30 is synchronized according to the synchronized exhaustion process. To be displayed. That is, in the photographing user interface, the slot remains in real time not only when the slot of the shared film is used in the corresponding user terminal 100-1, but also when any slot of the shared film is used in the user terminal of another member. The number is deducted.

The processor 130 may provide a photographing user interface including a fifth area P50 in which a comment input menu for inputting text that a user wants to leave in the photographed photograph is output. Such a photo shooting user interface includes an area where a user can input text (eg, a keyboard, etc.) when a comment input menu (for example, a "write one line" button) is selected, and the user inputs a text. A user interface including an area where text is output and an area where a comment input completion menu is output may be provided. In this case, the position of the area where the text input by the user is output may be selected and adjusted by the user on the captured picture. In addition, when the comment input completion menu is selected, an effect in which text input by the user and photographing time information (ie, date and time, etc.) are engraved on the captured picture may be processed. Through this, the user can directly record a memo such as emotion or situation at the time of taking the picture in the picture, and can conveniently apply a comment of a desired design at a desired location.

When a user interaction action (eg, a click, a swipe, a slide, etc.) is preset on a slot image of the shared film output to the first area P10 through the photo taking user interface, the processor 130 purchases the user. A film replacement function can be provided that can be replaced with one of a plurality of virtual films (ie, shared film and non-shared film). For example, when a user swipes up and down on a slot of a shared film output on a photographing user interface, the user may be replaced with another virtual film among a plurality of virtual films purchased by the user. In operation P10, an image corresponding to an unused slot of the replaced virtual film may be displayed. In this case, each virtual film may have different characteristics, and through the film replacement, the user may select a film having a desired emotion or effect to perform photographing.

In addition, since there is a high risk that a user may accidentally click on the shooting button, the processor 130 may use the shooting button P40 to perform any condition (for example, double-clicking the shooting button or until the gauge is full). If a user presses a shooting button for a time or inserts a separate confirmation button, etc.), an automatic shooting prevention mode for confirming that the photo shooting is completed may be provided. This automatic shooting prevention mode can be turned on or off in the preparation step for taking a picture or can be applied in a separate setting screen.

3 is an example of a user interface for explaining a virtual development process through a photo printing camera application according to an embodiment of the present invention.

When a preset user interactive action is generated on the photo output to the second area P20, the processor 130 displays the photo output to the second area P20 on the image of the slot output to the first area P10. Handles the effects that are engraved (ie virtual phenomena). In this case, the user interactive action may include at least one of a click, a swipe, and a slide, and the type is not limited thereto.

For reference, in one embodiment of the present invention, 'virtual phenomenon' logically means that the data of the photographed picture is allocated and stored in the storage area corresponding to the slot of the virtual film, and visually, the image on the slot image. This means that the photos taken on the display are superimposed.

For example, the processor 130 may display an image of the photographed photograph on the slot image displayed in the first area P10, and process and display an opaque filter effect or a color change effect similar to the development result of the analog film. have. Referring to FIG. 3, when a user interactive action (ie, slide or drag and drop) P22 is input in a direction of a slot image (ie, a first area) of a virtual film on a captured picture, the corresponding photo image may be a first image. It can be seen that the virtual development is overlaid on the image of the slot output to the area P10.

Next, referring to FIG. 4, the process of processing the shared film purchase by the processor 130 will be described.

4 is an example of a user interface for explaining a process of purchasing a shared film through a photo printing camera application according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The processor 130 does not have a virtual film registered for the user of the user terminal 100-1 (that is, the purchased virtual film, but the shared film and the non-shared film) or the currently selected virtual film among the purchased virtual film. If there are no remaining slots, the purchase button may be output to the virtual film UI of the first area P10. For example, when there are no remaining slots in the currently selected virtual film as shown in FIG. 4, "0" indicating the number of slots is displayed in the third area P30, and "BUY" is displayed in the first area P10. The purchase button P11 was displayed. In this case, the user may select the corresponding button (for example, click) to decide to purchase the virtual film intuitively and simply.

In detail, when the virtual film purchase is selected, the processor 130 may provide a user interface for selecting one of the shared film and the non-shared film. In this case, when the purchase of the shared film is selected by the user, the processor 130 may purchase the shared film for displaying one or more purchase price information for each shared film that is available for purchase, characteristic information of each shared film, and total slot number information of each shared film. Provide a user interface.

This user interface for purchasing shared film provides the ability to select at least one shared film and to handle payment of the selected one or more shared films. For reference, the characteristic information of the shared film may include information such as various filter effects and the size of the photograph to be printed.

In addition, the user interface for purchasing a shared film includes a first function for selecting a shared film to purchase, a second function for inputting the number of members to share the shared film, a third function for inputting information of another member, and And a fourth function of performing a payment process for the shared film requested to be purchased. On the user interface for sharing film purchase, the purchase price information is displayed after the share price according to the number of members input through the second function is applied to the basic purchase price information displayed initially. For example, when three members including the user want to share the shared film, an additional amount (ie, a share price) of a predetermined ratio may be added to the initially displayed basic purchase price information.

The processor 130 includes identification information on the shared film selected through the first function in the user interface for purchasing the shared film, the number of members input through the second function, and other member-specific information input through the third function. The shared film purchase request is transmitted to the photo print service server 200.

In response to the shared film purchase request, the processor 130 receives the sharing approval information based on the permission of all other members from the photo print service server 200, and proceeds to the payment process for the corresponding shared film through the fourth function.

The processor 130 may process the virtual film purchase payment not only through online payment through a wire transfer and a credit card but also by a user inputting an offline code in the form of a gift icon.

The processor 130 may provide a user interface for the shared film gift that allows the user to present the shared film to another user. That is, the user of the user terminal 100-1 pays for the shared film, and inputs user identification information (ie, ID or phone number, etc.) or a unique code issued for the object of the object (ie, another user) to receive the gift. You can present a shared film by doing so. Through this, the party who receives the shared film can take a picture using the shared film, and can use the film printing service by entering a shipping address for each member.

Such a virtual film presenting user interface may include a menu for inputting target information for presenting a shared film, a menu for selecting a type of shared film to be presented or a price of a virtual film, and payment for a selected shared film or price. It may include a menu. In this case, the results processed by the respective menus are transmitted to the photo print service server 200. When the shared film to be presented or the price of the shared film is selected and paid, the photo printing service server 200 generates a shared film authentication code corresponding to the paid shared film or the price, and virtualizes it to the user terminal corresponding to the gift object. Send the film verification code. When the user terminal 100-1 receives the shared film authentication code presented by another user through the photo printing service server 200, the user terminal 100-1 enters the shared film authentication code when purchasing the shared film through the photo printing camera application. Can be processed. Alternatively, the shared film itself corresponding to the shared film authentication code may be registered directly as a shared film purchased on the photo printing camera application.

Meanwhile, the user interface for purchasing the shared film may further include a fifth function for selecting one of the representative purchase or the joint purchase for the shared film selected by the user. In this case, when the representative purchase is selected by the user, the processor 130 processes the payment at the total purchase price to which the share price is applied during the payment process. When the joint purchase is selected by the user, the processor 130 processes the payment as a partial purchase price obtained by dividing the total purchase price to which the shared price is applied according to the number of members during the payment process.

When the representative purchase is selected, the processor 130 registers the corresponding shared film on the photographing user interface when payment processing is completed through the payment process, and transmits payment processing completion information to the photo printing service server 200 to transmit all other information. The shared film is registered on the member's user terminal. In addition, when the joint purchase is selected, when the joint purchase is selected, when the joint payment completion information according to the payment processing completion of all members of the corresponding shared film is received from the photo printing service server 200, the sharing is performed on the photographing user interface. Register the film.

Next, referring to FIGS. 5 and 6, a process of processing the photo management of the shared film by the processor 130 will be described.

5 is an example of a user interface for explaining a photo management scheme on a shared film through a photo printing camera application according to an embodiment of the present invention.

The processor 130 provides a film checking function for outputting an image for each slot so that the user can check the entire slot of the selected shared film among the purchased shared films through the picture capturing user interface. For example, when a user clicks on a slot image of a shared film currently being shot in the first area P10 on the photo shooting user interface, the user is switched to a film confirmation page that enables the user to check all slots stored in the shared film. Can be.

Referring to FIG. 5A, the processor 130 displays the entire slot image P100 of the corresponding shared film through the film confirmation page. In this case, the photographed picture may be overlaid and displayed on the slot in which the virtual phenomenon is completed among the entire slot images P100, and the basic image indicating the empty slot may be displayed in the unused slot. In addition, when the user interactive action P110 occurs in response to the direction in which the plurality of slots are connected in the entire slot image P100, the processor 130 may determine a user interactive action (eg, a click, a swipe, a slide, etc.). The slot position of the currently output shared film is changed and output according to the direction of generation. For example, if the user slides the entire slot image (P100) left / right, the slot-specific position of the shared film is changed. If the user selects a desired slot by clicking one of the output slots, the photo stored in the slot is separately selected. The output can be enlarged.

On the other hand, during photo print processing for a shared film, if the photo data photographed with the shared film is transmitted in real time to an external device (that is, a photo print service server, etc.), the photo print camera application itself or a communication with an external device This may cause problems such as resource waste. Therefore, the photo data taken with the shared film can be uploaded to the external device at once when all the limited number of slots are exhausted.

Similarly, when the photo data taken with the shared film is directly shared among the members in real time, a large amount of data must be linked in real time on the photo print camera application and the photo print service server 200 of each user terminal. have. Therefore, in an embodiment of the present invention, when each member takes a picture using the shared film, the actual photo data is not uploaded by using the shared film, but rather, the user terminal of each member informs the use of the slot of the shared film. A data value of a token format consisting of data may be transmitted to the photo print service server 200. That is, the use slot information transmitted by the processor 130 to the photo printing service server 200 and the sharing information received from the photo printing service server 200 each include only the identification information for the corresponding shared film and the used slot. It may be in the form of a token of minimum size.

In this case, when the photo print service server 200 receives a token value data value (ie, use slot information) from any user terminal, the photo printing service server 200 records identification information of the corresponding member and exhausted slot information of the shared film. Then, the photo print service server 200 transmits a corresponding token data value (ie, shared information) based on identification information of all member accounts or user terminals linked to the shared film.

When the processor 130 receives the sharing information from the photo printing service server 200, the processor 130 displays an identification mark indicating that a slot corresponding to the sharing information is used by another member among a plurality of slots of the shared film. Output through In this case, the identification mark may be output to the user terminals of all members except for the user terminal using the corresponding slot among the members of the shared film.

Referring to FIG. 5 (b), the slots used in the user terminal 100-1 and the slots according to the sharing information may be distinguished from each other on the entire slot image P100 of the shared film output on the film confirmation page. Slots according to the shared information are separately identified (indicated by "film photography" in Fig. 5B). For example, in the slot used in the user terminal 100-1, the photographed picture may be virtually displayed, but in the slot according to the sharing information, only the minimum identification information is displayed without the information based on the separate picture data. Can be. Through this, it is possible to know that another member photographed the film by marking a predetermined identification mark (eg, a figure shape) on the corresponding shared film space (ie, one slot) on the user terminal of all members.

In addition, the number of icons representing the number of film capturing possible (that is, the number of remaining slots) is displayed on the user terminal of all members through the photo printing camera application.

6 is an example of a user interface for explaining a slot exhaustion synchronization method of a shared film through a photo printing camera application according to an embodiment of the present invention.

In FIG. 6, an example in which the first user terminal 100-1 and the second user terminal 100-2 share and use one shared film will be described.

FIG. 6A illustrates a first picture capturing user interface P100-1 output through a photo print camera application of the first user terminal 100-1, and FIG. 6B shows a second user terminal. A second photographing user interface P100-2 output through the photo printing camera application of 100-2 is shown.

Referring to FIGS. 6A and 6B, a third area P30-1 of the first picture taking user interface P100-1 and a third area of the second picture taking user interface P100-2 may be used. Each of the remaining slots of the shared film is indicated in P30-2, and it can be seen that the number is the same.

At this time, when the user of the first user terminal 100-1 takes a picture using the shared film, the photographed picture is stored in the corresponding slot and is virtually developed on the slot image. In the third area P30-1, the number of remaining slots in which one slot is subtracted (that is, "0") is displayed. In addition, the processor 130 of the first user terminal 100-1 transmits use slot information for the corresponding shared film to the photo print service server 200.

In parallel, the second user terminal 100-2 receives sharing information according to shared film photographing of the first user terminal 100-1 from the photo printing service server 200. Accordingly, the processor of the second user terminal 100-2 synchronizes the exhaustion process with respect to the slot of the shared film corresponding to the shared information, and counts one slot in the third area P30-2 of the picture capturing user interface. Indicates the number of remaining slots subtracted (ie, "0"). In this case, in the second picture capturing user interface P100-2 output on the second user terminal 100-2, an image of a corresponding slot is output in the first area, but the picture is not displayed virtually. An identification mark (indicated by "film photography" in Fig. 6B) that can distinguish what has been photographed by the user terminal is output.

Next, the process of processing the photo print request for the shared film by the processor 130 will be described with reference to FIG. 7.

7 is an example of a user interface for explaining a photo print request method for a shared film through a photo print camera application according to an embodiment of the present invention.

When the entire slot of the activated shared film is exhausted on the photographing user interface, the processor 130 transmits the slot-specific photo data used in the shared film to the photo print service server 200 or the like. The processor 130 may transmit the slot-specific photo data to the photo print service server 200 or the like even when a user's photo print selection is input after at least one slot of the activated shared film is used on the photo taking user interface. have.

Referring to FIG. 7, when the number of remaining slots output in the third area P30 of the picture capturing user interface becomes “0”, a photo print button P13 called “PRINT” may be displayed in the first area P10. Can be. In this case, the user may select (eg, click) a corresponding button to process a photo print request of the shared film intuitively and simply.

The processor 130 may, through the photographing user interface, an administrator mode that is activated when the user requests the purchase of the shared film as a representative, and the user as part of the purchase of the shared film initiated by the user terminal of any representative. If you participate, it provides photo printing function for each member mode that is activated.

In this case, when the manager mode is activated, only the representative user who requests the purchase of the shared film corresponds to at least one of the photo print service server 200, the photo print company terminal 300, and the photo print kiosk 400. Representative print mode for sending a photo print request for a shared film and a member print mode for selecting any member among the members who participated in the purchase of the shared film to send a photo print request. do.

For example, when all the slots of the shared film are exhausted while the manager mode and the representative print mode are activated, the photo print request is transmitted as the representative user.

When the entire slot of the shared film is exhausted while the manager mode and the member print mode are activated, a photo print request may be transmitted or a photo print request of another member may be sent from the photo print service server 200 according to a user's selection. Receive a photo data request according to the slot and transmits the photo data for each slot used in the shared film.

In addition, if the entire slot of the shared film is exhausted while member mode is active, the photo is printed directly on the shared film, depending on which mode another member has chosen as representative (that is, either manager mode or member print mode). Send a request or receive a photo data request by a photo print request of another member (representative or any member) to transmit slot-specific photo data used in the shared film.

 In this case, the photo print request is transmitted to at least one of the photo printing service server 200, the photo printing company terminal 300, and the photo printing kiosk 400 according to a user's selection, or automatically to the photo printing service server 200. After the transmission, it may be delivered to at least one of the photo printing company terminal 300 and the photo printing kiosk 400 under the control of the server 200.

In addition, in order to prevent a situation in which a photo may be lost, such as a loss of a user terminal, the processor 130 may process a film backup function. When the entire slot of the shared film is exhausted or the user selects the processor 130, the user identification information, the identification information of the shared film, and the photo data for each slot of the shared film are uploaded to the photo printing service server 200 and backed up. do. In this case, the photo print service server 200 may upload the photo data by transmitting a backup request for the photo data for each slot used for each member of the shared film. The photo print service server 200 may match and store corresponding photo data for each member, and then collect and manage photo data of all slots of the shared film. For reference, the photo print service server 200 stores a film purchase history for each user who purchased each shared film.

Meanwhile, the processor 130 further provides a user interface for inputting delivery information for inputting delivery address information for receiving a printed picture for each member who shared the shared film when purchasing or sharing a print film request.

That is, the user interface for inputting shipping information includes a function of inputting shipping address information of at least one member including a user of the user terminal 100-1, and at least the input shipping address information including the corresponding user. Along with at least one of the identification information of each member and the identification information of the shared film is transmitted to at least one of the photo printing service server 200, the photo printing company terminal 300 and the photo printing kiosk 400 is registered.

For example, when the user terminal 100-1 transmits a photo print request as a representative, the processor 130 uploads all the photographs of the completed shared film to the photo print service server 200. A shipping confirmation step that prints out the shipping information for each member entered when making a payment or requesting photo prints, allowing the user to view it, the shipping information editing step where the user enters the correction information if he / she wants to modify the shipping address, and finally print order To complete the order can be performed. For reference, after the order completion step, the photo print service server 200 requests upload of slot-specific photo data used as user terminals of other members of the shared film, and then uploads slot-specific photo data of all uploaded members. After collecting, the members of the shared film can be printed or distributed for each member.

In this case, the processor 130 or the photo printing service server 200 may control a photo to be printed on the photo of each shared slot, in addition to the photo data for each slot, when the printing process proceeds to print one additional photo including any user information. It can be delivered to an external device that handles printing and packaging. In this way, each print company or kiosk can prevent a photo from being changed for each different shared film during the packaging process.

For reference, the photograph printed on the shared film may be first packaged in a film envelope branded for a photo printing service provider, and secondly packaged in a mail envelope or the like and may be delivered to each member. Such film envelopes may include design elements that facilitate packaging as well as storage of photographs. For example, the ability to hang on a hook through a hole in a film envelope, to engrav the year and month on a film envelope so that you can know when the film was printed, or A function of displaying some colors differently may be applied.

The photo print service server 200 may transmit a photo print request to a terminal 300 or a photo print kiosk 400 of a company that is close to or adjacent to a user based on location information of a delivery address for each member. To this end, the photo printing company terminal 300 and the photo printing kiosk 400 is a communication module capable of performing data communication with the user terminal or the photo printing service server 200, a processor for controlling the photo printing service, and a photo, respectively. The print service program may be configured to include a stored memory.

In addition, the processor 130 may receive at least one neighboring photo printing company or kiosk location information from the photo printing service server 200 based on the location of the user terminal 100-1 when processing the photo printing function. The processor 130 may output a list of received photo printing companies or kiosk location information and transmit a photo printing request to the terminal 300 or kiosk 400 of the photo printing service company selected by the user. In this case, the processor 130 may further provide a acquisition reservation user interface that allows a user to reserve a time to receive a printed photo by visiting a photo printing service company or a photo printing kiosk.

Next, a photo printing service method using the sharing film according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 8. The process described below may be performed through the processor 130 of the apparatus for providing a photo printing camera application (ie, a user terminal).

8 is a flowchart illustrating a photo print service method using a shared film through a photo print camera application according to an embodiment of the present invention.

When the purchase of the shared film is completed or there is a purchased shared film, a photo shooting user interface is provided through the photo printing camera application, and the photo shooting is performed through this (S830).

That is, a photo shooting user interface for taking a picture by using a shared film is provided, and through this, an image captured by the camera module and a fixed picture image according to a user shooting selection are displayed on the photo shooting user interface. The photographed picture may be virtually developed on the slot image of the currently set shared film.

In addition, a picture taken through the camera module is stored in an unused slot activated on the picture taking user interface, and the slot is exhausted. Every time a picture is taken using such a shared film, used slot information for the exhausted slot is transmitted to the photo print service server 200.

In parallel, when the shared information is used in real time as the corresponding shared film is used on the other user's user terminal from the photo printing service server 200, the exhaustion processing of the slot corresponding to the shared information on the shared film is performed. Synchronize At this time, if the shared information is received from the photo print service server 200, the number of remaining slots is subtracted from the third area and displayed according to the synchronized exhaustion process.

As such, the use slot information and the sharing information may be in the form of a token of the minimum size, each containing only identification information for the corresponding shared film and the used slot. In addition, upon receiving the sharing information from the photo printing service server 200, an identification mark indicating that the slot corresponding to the sharing information among the plurality of slots of the sharing film is in use by another member is output on the photographing user interface. can do. In this case, the identification marks are respectively output to the user terminals of all the members except the user terminal using the corresponding slot among the members of the shared film.

Then, when all the slots in the shared film is exhausted or the user's photo printing function is selected, a photo print request including the slot-specific photo data or the used slot-specific photo data of the shared film is transmitted to the photo printing service server (S840). ).

Specifically, the photographing user interface includes an administrator mode which is activated when the user of the corresponding user terminal requests the purchase of the shared film as a representative, and participates as a part of the purchase of the shared film initiated by the user terminal of any representative. When the member mode is activated, the photo print function is provided.

In this case, when the manager mode is activated, only the representative user who requests the purchase of the shared film may transmit a photo print request for the shared film to at least one of a photo printing service server, a photo printing company terminal, and a photo printing kiosk. And, any member among the members participating in the purchase of the shared film provides a function to select any one of the member print mode that can send a photo print request.

Through this, the service server 200 receiving the photo print request may select a suitable photo print company or kiosk based on the request or location of the user terminal and transmit the photo print request. In addition, the user terminal may receive information of one or more photo printing companies or kiosks through the service server 200, select a target to request photo printing, and then transmit a photo printing request. Upon receiving such a photo print request, the terminal or kiosk of the photo printing company processes the photo printing according to the printing conditions selected by the user (such as the print quantity per virtual film slot and the printing completion schedule), and performs photo packaging to deliver or deliver the photo.
