Description

Apparatus and method for checking parking position of vehicle

Various embodiments of the present disclosure relate to technology for determining a parking location, and provide, for example, a device or method for confirming a specific location of a parked vehicle.

In the case of officetels or buildings, as well as collective buildings such as apartments, it is common to have large-scale parking facilities on the ground or underground. As such, the parking lot of a building is generally wide or multi-story, and sometimes has a very complex structure, so it is true that it is not easy to find the place where the vehicle is parked after parking the vehicle on one side of the parking lot. Recently, as interest in user convenience-oriented technology has increased due to the remarkable development of advanced technology, it not only makes it very easy and convenient to park a vehicle in a parking lot, but also makes it easy and convenient to find the location where the vehicle is parked even after parking the vehicle. The development of technology to promote user convenience by enabling quick search is being carried out quite actively. As an example, a camera device capable of recognizing a vehicle number is mounted at the entrance and exit of a parking lot to automatically detect the vehicle number of a vehicle entering or exiting a parking lot with the camera device for recognizing the vehicle number. Technology that allows usage fees to be calculated, camera devices that can detect vehicle numbers are installed throughout the parking lot to track the first detected vehicle, or uses a GPS device installed in the vehicle to store the parked location, etc. there is However, since the camera device capable of detecting the license plate number of the vehicle requires considerably high camera performance, there is a problem that the installation cost rises too much, so that it is difficult to apply the technology in reality except for some buildings such as high-end buildings. In addition, when the location of the vehicle is confirmed using the GPS device, it is difficult to determine which floor the vehicle is parked on.

The present disclosure provides an apparatus and method for more accurately confirming a parked position by specifying the parked position of a vehicle in a three-dimensional coordinate system.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, in a server for checking a parking position of a vehicle, the server includes: a communication unit; and at least one control unit operatively connected to the communication unit, wherein the at least one control unit obtains first location information and second location information of the vehicle from the vehicle, and obtains image information from the vehicle. , Extracting identification information of a parking area based on the image information, determining a parking position of the vehicle based on a combination of the first location information, the second location information, and the identification information, and determining the determined parking location It is configured to transmit a confirmation request message related to a user terminal and receive an confirmation response message corresponding to the confirmation request message from the user terminal, wherein the first location information is information about the absolute location of the vehicle, wherein the The second location information is information about the relative location of the vehicle, and the image information is visual information about the surrounding environment of the vehicle.

An apparatus and method according to various embodiments of the present disclosure may improve convenience for a vehicle user by specifying a location of a parked vehicle using height information as well as plane information.

1 through 5 discussed below and the various embodiments used to explain the principles of the present disclosure are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present disclosure in any way. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the principles of this disclosure may be implemented in any suitably arranged wireless communication system.

An apparatus and method for checking a parking location according to various embodiments of the present disclosure may be implemented in the form of an application running on a mobile phone terminal. An application is installed in the internal storage of a mobile phone and is driven and controlled by the mobile phone's processor, but is connected to a wireless communication network and downloads data through an external server, receives data through the input/output device of the mobile phone, or receives an input signal or Information can be sent to an external server. Therefore, the user can implement the characteristic operations shown in the present disclosure by installing and executing the application for checking the parking location according to various embodiments of the present disclosure in the user's mobile phone terminal. However, information generated by a mobile phone terminal according to user input or measured and received by a built-in sensor may be transmitted to an external server and stored in the server or processed. In addition, the present invention is based on the premise that data collected by a camera, a black box, a plane coordinate measurement sensor, and a height coordinate measurement sensor mounted in a vehicle as well as a mobile phone terminal are available, and the vehicle and/or mobile phone terminal and wireless It can be understood to be driven by a server connected through a communication network. Accordingly, an apparatus or method for checking a parking location according to various embodiments of the present disclosure may be described as being implemented by a server.

1 is a flowchart illustrating an operation of a server for checking a parking location according to various embodiments of the present disclosure.

Referring to FIG. 1 , an operation of a server for checking a parking location according to various embodiments of the present disclosure may include the following steps.

In step 101s, the server may acquire location information.

The location information may include first location information and second location information. Location information may be collected or stored through an external device connected to the server through a wireless communication network. The external equipment may be an input device or a measuring device mounted on a vehicle or a mobile phone terminal of a user. The first location information and the second location information may be measured or received by different external devices. For example, the first location information may be location information measured by a user's mobile phone terminal or a plane coordinate measuring device mounted in a vehicle. The plane coordinate measuring device may include, for example, a GPS sensor and a LIDAR sensor. In addition to this, all known sensors for determining vertical and horizontal motions and relative positions of objects on a plane may be applied. A GPS device or GPS sensor mentioned below may be expressed as an example of a plane coordinate measuring device. In this case, the location information may mean only planar location information. That is, it may be location information that a user can check from a view looking down from above. Accordingly, when the user checks the real-time location information of the vehicle or the user terminal through the first location information, the user can check only vertical, horizontal, and vertical movement of the vehicle or the user terminal based on a specific point on the map. For example, it may be understood as a location on a map that can be confirmed through navigation of a vehicle in which the user is riding or through a map application installed in the user's mobile phone terminal. Therefore, it may be difficult to know how high the user is located from the ground based on the first location information. The first location information includes the location of the user based on an absolute specific point displayed on the map, that is, information about the location of the vehicle the user is riding or the location of the user's portable terminal. Accordingly, the first location information may be understood as information about an absolute location.

The second location information may refer to information about rising or falling of a sensor that measures the second location information. Ascent or descent may mean a change in altitude. The second location information may be measured by a gyro sensor. Since the gyro sensor measures a change in motion through inertia, the second location information may be understood as relative location information. When a user carrying a portable terminal equipped with a gyro sensor or riding a vehicle equipped with a gyro sensor ascends from an arbitrary point to a certain altitude or higher, the gyro sensor may detect the user's elevation. Similarly, when a user descends from an arbitrary point to a certain altitude or higher, the gyro sensor may detect the user's descent. The second location information may be digitized data about information about the user's ascension or descent.

Acquisition of location information by the server may mean that location information measured by a sensor installed in a vehicle or user terminal is transmitted to the server through a wireless communication network through an application installed in the vehicle or mobile phone. This can be done in real time. In addition, it may be transmitted at regular intervals or according to a predetermined rule according to a user's selection.

In step 103s, the server may obtain image information.

Image information may include dynamic or static visual data recorded or photographed through an external device. The external device may refer to a user's portable terminal or a black box or camera mounted in a vehicle. When a vehicle enters a parking area, the external device may store information about the environment around the vehicle as visual data or transmit it to a server in real time. Visual data may be stored as an image identifiable by a user.

In step 105s, the server may extract identification information of a parking area based on the obtained image information.

The identification information of the parking area may be understood as including the name of the parking lot into which the vehicle entered, the number of floors, the name of a specific area in the parking lot, a symbol, and the like. The identification information of the parking area may include at least one of Arabic numerals, alphabets, and Korean characters, or may consist of a combination thereof. The server may check the identification information of the parking area through an operation of extracting text from image information. When an operation of extracting text through image information is not smooth due to camera quality of an external device, contrast, or other factors, the server may supplement the text extraction operation using previously stored data. According to an embodiment, an operation of extracting identification information of a parking area may be performed based on AI, and may be performed based on data stored through repetitive learning and its mechanism. The history related to the corresponding operation can be used by using all external devices in which applications related to the server are installed.

In step 107s, the server may determine the parking location of the vehicle based on the location information and identification information. Location information may be divided into first location information and second location information. The first location information is related to an absolute location on a plane coordinate, and the second location information is related to a relative location based on a gyro sensor. The server may calculate result data for a specific parking area where the vehicle is parked and the number of floors thereof through the obtained location information. However, the relative position based on the gyro sensor has room for error depending on the situation, and identification information of the parking area extracted from the acquired image information may be used to compensate for this. The server may estimate the number of floors through the identification information and determine a specific parking location. However, when identification information is not extracted from information obtained by a camera of an external device, the parking location may be determined only by location information. According to other embodiments, the server may determine the location where the vehicle is parked using at least one of first location information, second location information, and image information or a combination of the above three pieces of information.

In step 109s, the server may transmit a confirmation request message for the parking location to the external device.

The server may perform a process of checking whether the parking location determined through location information and identification information is an accurate location.

The server may transmit a confirmation request message to a terminal in which an application implemented to confirm a parking location is installed. A vehicle user may receive a confirmation request message through the vehicle or a mobile terminal. The confirmation message may be displayed as a pop-up through the application or may be transmitted in the form of a text message to the user's mobile phone based on the user's identification information. The user receiving the confirmation request message may determine whether the actual parked location matches the location determined by the server as the parking location, and transmit a response message to the confirmation message. If the actual parked position does not match the parking position determined by the server, the user may transmit a message indicating the discrepancy and subsequently transmit data regarding the actual parked position. The server may recognize that the parking location determined based on the location information and the image information does not match the actual parked location, and as a case where the parking location determination fails, the information used for determining the parking location and the result information may be sent to the server. It can be stored in or transmitted externally. According to other embodiments of the present disclosure, information about a case in which parking location determination has failed may be used in subsequent parking location determination.

When the actual parking location matches the location determined by the server as the parking location, the user may transmit an acceptance response. When the server receives a message indicating that the determined parking location coincides with the actual parking location, the server may determine the determined parking location. Then, when the user accesses the server through the application, the server can call the determined parking location based on the user's identification information and transmit it to the user.

2 illustrates an operation of a server for measuring vertical movement of a vehicle according to various embodiments of the present disclosure.

Referring to FIG. 2 , the server may perform operations classified into two cases to determine the second location, that is, the relative location of the vehicle.

A gyro sensor mounted on a vehicle may detect a sudden downward movement of the vehicle. When the altitude is lowered while the vehicle is just ahead, the gyro sensor may detect this, specify a section corresponding to the time point when the altitude is lowered, and transmit the same to the server. Upon receiving this, the server may determine that the vehicle descends in the corresponding section. After that, when the descent of the vehicle stops and changes to a straight motion, this point in time may be the end point of the section in which the vehicle descends. The server may receive section information of going straight, going down, and going straight, and determining that the vehicle has descended by a certain number of floors.

Likewise, when an upward movement is detected in a vehicle going straight, the gyro sensor may transmit information about the corresponding section to the server by specifying the time when the vehicle starts to increase in altitude and the time when the vehicle starts to go straight again. The server receiving this may determine that the vehicle was ascending during the corresponding section. Based on determining that there is an upward motion of the vehicle, the server may determine that the vehicle has ascended by a certain number of floors. Assuming that the ascending or descending information measured by the gyro sensor is transmitted to the server in real time, the server may index the ascending or descending information and adjust the index based on data transmitted from the gyro sensor. For example, when the index is set to k, and the descending section detected by the gyro sensor is only once, the server may set the index to k-1. In addition, when the rising section detected by the gyro sensor is only once, the server may set the index to k+1. As much as the number of falling sections or rising sections, the index k may be subtracted by 1 or added by 1. The server may determine the number of floors of the vehicle according to the finally determined index information.

3 illustrates an operation of a server for measuring vertical movement of a vehicle according to various embodiments of the present disclosure.

Referring to FIG. 3 , other variables to be considered may exist in the process of obtaining information measured by the gyro sensor. In the case where the vehicle starts a downward movement and continuously continues to descend without a straight movement in the middle, it may be difficult for the server to specify the end point of the descending section. Referring to FIG. 3 , it can be confirmed that the vehicle descends from B2 to B3 without a previous section. In this case, the server receiving the downward movement information may mistakenly determine that the descending movement has descended by only one floor, even though the server actually descended by two floors. To compensate for this situation, image information may be considered together in the process of determining a parking location.

4 illustrates an operation of obtaining image information according to various embodiments of the present disclosure.

Referring to FIG. 4, the server receives location information measured through a gyro sensor and a GPS sensor as shown in the drawing on the left, receives image information directly measured from a vehicle, etc. as shown in the drawing on the right, and then combines them to obtain a parking location. can decide The image information may be photo or video data including text data such as the number of floors or area information of a parking lot displayed on a pillar of a building.

5 illustrates an operation for determining a parking location by a server for checking a parking location according to various embodiments of the present disclosure.

Referring to FIG. 5, in the location information and image information received by the server, a first error case that cannot be determined by the gyro sensor (gravity sensor) and a second case that cannot be determined by the image sensor (external equipment for measuring image information) Error cases can be mixed.

The first error case may be a case in which it is difficult to clearly specify the current floor number of the vehicle because the vehicle descends or ascends twice or more consecutively without a straight section.

The second error case may be a case in which identification information of a parking location detected by an image sensor does not exist, or an error occurs in the process of testing even if it exists, or text that is lost due to deterioration of image quality or contrast exists. . When the twelfth error case and the second error case exist at the same time, it may be difficult to determine the parking position through mutual complement. In this case, the server may check the accuracy of the parking location determined based on the user's response by sending a confirmation request message to the user terminal. When the user determines that the actual parking location and the parking location determined by the server are different through the received confirmation request message, a correction command may be transmitted to the server by tapping 'correction' to enter the correct actual parking location. When the actual parking location and the parking location determined by the server match, the user may tap 'confirm' to transmit a fine response message to the server. In response to receiving the confirmation response message, the server may determine the determined parking location as the actual parking location.
