2 is a flowchart illustrating an example of a method of performing a test on a location-based service application and transmitting test result data to a server according to some embodiments of the present disclosure.

Referring to FIG. 2, the processor 130 of the unmanned mobile device 100 may receive a test script for the LBS application from the server 200 through the communication unit 110 (S110).

Here, the test script may mean a script for determining whether the LBS application normally operates in a specific location. Specifically, the test script may include a command for obtaining an image, text, and UI operation output from the LBS application as the LBS application is driven at a position corresponding to the movement command signal.

Alternatively, the test script provides a command for comparing each of the image, text, and UI operations output from the LBS application with each of the preset images, text, and user interface (UI) operations as the LBS application is driven at a position corresponding to the movement command signal. Can include.

Here, each of the preset image, text, and UI operations may be images, text, and UI operations that are appropriately output when the LBS application is executed at a specific location.

The processor 130 of the unmanned mobile body 100 may receive a movement command signal from the server 200 through the communication unit 110 (S120). Here, the movement command signal may mean a command signal to move the unmanned moving object 100 to a specific position in order to perform a test corresponding to the test script. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the movement command signal may mean a command signal to traverse a specific area. In addition, the movement command signal may include information on a specific location or region (eg, GPS coordinate information, etc.).

Further, the processor 130 may move to a position corresponding to the movement command signal received from the server 200 (S130). Specifically, the processor 130 may control the flight unit to move to a position corresponding to the movement command signal. In this case, the flying unit may rotate the propeller to generate lift, thereby moving the unmanned moving body 100 to a position corresponding to the movement command signal.

According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the processor 130 of the unmanned moving vehicle 100 may obtain battery state information before moving to a location corresponding to a movement command signal received from the server 200. In addition, the processor 130 may determine whether to immediately move to a position corresponding to the movement command signal, based on the battery state information.

A description of a method of determining whether or not the processor 130 of the unmanned moving body 100 immediately moves to a position corresponding to the movement command signal will be described in detail later with reference to FIG. 3.

Referring back to FIG. 2, the processor 130 of the unmanned moving object 100 may perform a test corresponding to the test script. Specifically, the processor 130 may obtain current location information after moving to a location corresponding to the move command signal. In addition, the processor 130 may control the communication unit 110 to transmit the acquired current location information to the server 200.

Meanwhile, the server 200 may receive information on the current location of the unmanned moving object 100 transmitted by the unmanned moving object 100. In addition, when the location information included in the movement command signal and the current location information of the unmanned moving object 100 match, the server 200 may transmit a test execution signal to the unmanned moving object 100. Here, the test execution signal may mean a command signal to perform a test on the LSB application at the current location.

That is, the processor 130 of the unmanned moving object 100 may receive a test execution signal from the server 200 through the communication unit 110. Then, the processor 130 may perform a test corresponding to the test script (S140).

Accordingly, the unmanned moving object 100 may perform a test on the LBS application at an exact location (a location included in the test script) that the administrator wants to test.

As described above, the processor 130 of the unmanned moving object 100 may perform a test on the LBS application after moving to a specific location.

Specifically, when the processor 130 recognizes that the unmanned moving object 100 has finished moving to a specific location, it may start driving the LBS application. Also, the processor 130 may acquire images, texts, and UI operations output from the LBS application. In addition, when the LBS application is driven in a specific location, the processor 130 may compare a preset image, text, and UI operation to be output with an actually output image, text, and UI operation.

For example, when the LBS application is normally driven, when the processor 130 of the unmanned moving object 100 drives the LBS application at the first position, the LBS application is a first image and a first text corresponding to the first position. And outputting the first UI operation. And, when the processor 130 of the unmanned moving object 100 drives the LBS application at the second position, the LBS application may output a second image, a second text, and a second UI operation corresponding to the second position. .

For example, the LBS application may be a game application in which a monster corresponding to each of a plurality of locations capable of location identification appears. In this case, when the current location is identified as the first location, the LBS application may output a first image, a first text, and a first UI operation related to the first monster corresponding to the first location. In addition, when the current location is identified as the second location, the LBS application may output a second image, a second text, and a second UI operation related to the second monster corresponding to the second location.

Meanwhile, the processor 130 of the unmanned moving object 100 may recognize that when the LBS application is driven in the first position, the first image, the first text and the first UI operation corresponding to the first position are output. In this case, the processor 130 may recognize that the LBS application is normally driven in the first position.

Meanwhile, when the LBS application is driven in the first position, the processor 130 performs a first image, a first text corresponding to the first position, and a second image, a second text, and a second UI operation other than the first UI operation. You may recognize that it has been printed. In this case, the processor 130 may recognize that the LBS application is abnormally driven in the first position.

In addition, the processor 130 recognizes whether the LBS application is normally operated in each of a specific location (eg, a first position and a second position), and transmits information on whether the LBS application is normally operated to the server 200. ) Can be controlled.

According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, as the LBS application is driven at a specific location, the processor 130 compares each of the images, text, and UI operations output from the LBS application with each of the preset images, text, and UI operations. It is possible to control the communication unit 110 to transmit to the server 200.

That is, in the above example, each of the preset image, text, and UI operation is a first image, a first text, and a first UI operation to be output at the first position, and when the LBS application is driven at the first position, it is actually output. Each of the resulting image, text, and UI operation may be a second image, a second text, and a second UI operation. In this case, when the LBS application is executed in the first location, the processor 130 transmits the comparison result data indicating that the image, text, and UI operations are all differently output (abnormal driving) to the server 200. Can be controlled.

However, in the above-described example, the processor 130 recognizes whether the LBS application is normally operated at a specific location, but is not limited to the above-described example, and the processor 130 is at a specific location (eg, a first location and a second location). Etc.), when the LBS application is executed, the communication unit 110 may be controlled to transmit information on the output image, text, and UI operation to the server 200. In this case, the server 200 may recognize whether the LBS application is normally operated in a specific location.

The processor 130 may obtain test result data by performing a test corresponding to the test script. Further, the processor 130 may control the communication unit 110 to transmit the test result data to the server 200 (S150).

As an example, the processor 130 of the unmanned moving object 100 may include images, text, and UI operations output from the LBS application as the LBS application is driven at a position corresponding to the movement command signal from the server 200 and a preset image, A test script including a command for comparing text and a user interface (UI) operation may be received.

In this case, the processor 130 compares each of the images, text, and UI operations output from the LBS application with each of the preset images, texts, and UI operations as the LBS application is driven in a specific location, and sends the result data to the server 200. It is possible to control the communication unit 110 to transmit. Here, each of the preset image, text, and UI operations may be images, text, and UI operations that are appropriately output when the LBS application is executed at a specific location. Meanwhile, each of a preset image, text, and UI operation may be pre-stored in the memory 120 of the unmanned moving object 100. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and each of a preset image, text, and UI operation may be included in a test script received from the server 200.

That is, the server 200 may recognize whether the LBS application normally operates in a specific location by receiving the comparison result data.

As another example, the processor 130 of the unmanned moving object 100 may issue a command to obtain an image, text, and UI operation output from the LBS application as the LBS application is driven at a position corresponding to the movement command signal from the server 200. You can receive the included test script.

In this case, the processor 130 may control the communication unit 110 to transmit each image, text, and UI operation output from the LBS application to the server 200 as the LBS application is driven at a specific location. That is, the server 200 receives each image, text, and UI operation output from the LBS application from the unmanned moving object 100 as the LBS application is driven at a specific location, and then compares it with each of the preset image, text, and UI operations. By doing so, it is possible to recognize whether the LBS application operates normally.

As described above, when the LBS application is executed in a specific location, the unmanned moving object 100 tests whether an appropriate output is performed and transmits the test result to the server 200, so that the manager determines whether the LBS application is normally operated. You can check it conveniently.

In other words, since the administrator does not have to directly move to various areas to check whether the LBS application is running normally and test the LBS application, time and cost can be saved.

According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the processor 130 of the unmanned moving object 100 may acquire state information of the battery of the unmanned moving object at preset time intervals. Here, the state information of the battery may include information on the remaining amount of the battery that can be used to move the unmanned moving object 100 to a position corresponding to the movement command signal.

In addition, the processor 130 may control the communication unit 110 to transmit the battery status information acquired at preset time intervals to the server 200.

Meanwhile, when the server 200 receives battery status information from the unmanned moving vehicle 100 at preset time intervals, the server 200 may determine whether to charge the battery based on the battery status information. Specifically, when the battery of the unmanned moving object 100 is less than a preset level, the server 200 may determine to transmit a battery charging signal to the unmanned moving object.

That is, the server 200 may recognize the remaining amount of the battery of the unmanned vehicle 100 based on the battery state information received from the unmanned vehicle 100. In addition, the server 200 may determine that the remaining amount of the battery of the unmanned moving object 100 that can be used to move to a position corresponding to the movement command signal is insufficient when the remaining amount of the battery of the unmanned moving object 100 is less than the preset remaining amount have. In this case, the server 200 may transmit a battery charging signal to the unmanned vehicle 100 so that the unmanned vehicle 100 charges the battery.

When the processor 130 of the unmanned mobile device 100 receives a battery charging signal from the server 200 through the communication unit 110, the processor 130 may control the unmanned mobile device 100 to move to the battery charging station. . Specifically, the processor 130 may control the flight unit to move to the location of the battery charging station. In this case, the flying unit may rotate the propeller to generate lift, thereby moving the unmanned moving body 100 to the position of the battery charging station.

Accordingly, the unmanned moving object 100 and the server 200 can prevent a situation in which movement is impossible because the remaining amount of the battery of the unmanned moving object 100 is insufficient.

According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the processor 130 of the unmanned moving object 100 may acquire state information of the unmanned moving object 100 at preset time intervals. Specifically, the processor 130 may obtain state information of the unmanned moving object 100 from a sensor (eg, a temperature sensor, a communication sensor, a vibration sensor, etc.) provided in the unmanned moving object 100. Here, the state information of the unmanned moving object 100 may refer to information capable of determining whether the unmanned moving object 100 has a failure.

In addition, the server 200 may determine whether or not the unmanned moving object 100 has a failure based on the state information of the unmanned moving object 100. Specifically, when the state of the unmanned moving object 100 is different from a preset state (here, the normal state), the server 200 may recognize that a failure has occurred in the unmanned moving object 100. In this case, the server 200 may transmit a return command signal to the unmanned moving object 100 to repair a failure of the unmanned moving object 100.

When the processor 130 of the unmanned mobile body 100 receives a feedback command signal from the server 200 through the communication unit 110, the unmanned mobile body 100 may control the unmanned mobile body 100 to return to a position corresponding to the feedback command signal. . Here, the location corresponding to the return command signal may be a location of a repair shop capable of repairing a failure of the unmanned moving body 100.

Specifically, the processor 130 may control the flight unit to move to a location of a repair shop capable of repairing a failure. In this case, the flying unit may rotate the propeller to generate lift, thereby moving the unmanned moving body 100 to a location of a repair shop capable of repairing a failure.

In addition, the processor 130 may control the unmanned moving object 100 to move to the first battery charging station for charging the battery. In addition, the processor 130 may control the communication unit 110 to transmit movement information indicating that the first battery charging station will be moved to the server 200.
