Hereinafter, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

1 is a schematic block diagram of a taxi-call system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1, a taxi-call system according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a user terminal 10, a taxi 20, and a server 30.

The user terminal 10 stores information on a preferred taxi that the user prefers to board, and receives various information necessary for the taxi-call process including the location information of the taxi from the user, and displays and transmits and receives it. To this end, the user terminal 10 is equipped with a GPS function, and includes an input means, a display means, and a communication means. For example, the user terminal 10 may be a smartphone, a tablet PC, or the like equipped with a GPS function.

The taxi 20 transmits various driving information and receives a call request from the user terminal 10. The driving information is information that is provided to the user in the process of performing a taxi-call service and is necessary for the user to determine a taxi 20 to request a call. For example, real-time location information, whether a passenger is on board, and the user requests It may be a variety of information related to the ride reservation, including whether it is possible to reach the ride point by time, the estimated time of arrival, and whether there is a ride reservation, the ride reservation time. To this end, the taxi 20 is provided with a communication means for transmitting and receiving information.

The server 30 transmits and receives various types of information necessary for the taxi call process, provides information to the user terminal 10 and the taxi 20, and mediates information exchange between the two. That is, the server 20 searches for a taxi 20 adjacent to a user's boarding point based on basic information about a taxi 20, such as a taxi number and a taxi type, stored in advance and driving information received from the taxi 20. Transmission to the user terminal 10. In this case, the user terminal 10 may receive information regarding a preferred taxi that the user prefers to board, and may transmit the preferred taxi separately from other taxi information. In addition, the server 30 receives and stores information on the preferred taxi from the user terminal 10, and if a significant change in the taxi 20 occurs, the server 30 transmits the change information to the user terminal 10 registered as the preferred taxi. It can be provided to determine whether to keep the preference storage.

Hereinafter, the configuration of the user terminal 10 and the server 30 according to an embodiment of the present invention with reference to FIGS. 2, 6, and 7 will be described in detail.

2 is a block diagram of a user terminal 10 in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.

2, the user terminal 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention is preferred taxi storage unit 11, taxi information requesting unit 12, taxi display unit 13, call performing unit 14, reach information Request unit 15, and registration notification unit 16.

The preference taxi storage unit 11 receives and stores information on a preference taxi in which the user prefers to ride. The information about the preferred taxi may be directly input by the user through the user terminal 10, may be transmitted from another user terminal 10, or may be stored by retrieving and storing a taxi rank registered in the other user terminal 10. There will be. Hereinafter, an aspect of stored preference taxi information will be described with reference to FIG. 3.

3 illustrates an example of information about a preference taxi stored in the preference taxi storage 11.

Referring to FIG. 3, the information about the preferred taxi is information of a unique taxi 20 that can be identified from other taxis 20, and may be, for example, a taxi number, a driver's name, or a transportation company to which the taxi belongs. . In addition, the garage 20 of the taxi 20, that is, the point of starting point and end point of the operation of the taxi 20 may include local information that is the center of the operation. Geographic information of the area where the taxi 20 is located is most familiar to the driver, and the call request is more likely to be accepted than a taxi 20 that is parked in another area even when the driver is familiar with the shift or closing time. Because of this size there is a gain in storage.

The taxi information requesting unit 12 receives a search request for taxi information adjacent to the boarding point from the user and transmits it to the server 30. In this case, when the location of the user terminal 10 at the time of the search request is a riding point, information about the taxi 20 adjacent to the current location of the user terminal 10 may be requested. However, when the boarding point is different from the position at the time of the search request or when the user requesting through the user terminal 10 and the passenger to board the taxi 20 are different, it is necessary to designate the boarding point separately. The unit 12 should provide a screen for inputting a riding point to the user.

Meanwhile, the taxi information requesting unit 12 may provide a taxi search option to the user and request the server 30 to search for a taxi corresponding to the search option selected by the user. The taxi search option may be an item depending on the type of taxi, such as a model taxi, a medium taxi, a large taxi, whether it is a vacant car, whether or not to allow sharing a car, or whether to search only a preferred taxi. In this case, when the user selects the option to search only the preferred taxi, the taxi information requesting unit 12 transmits the information about the preferred taxi stored in the preferred taxi storage unit 11 to the server 30 to perform the search only for the preferred taxi. Be sure to

The taxi display unit 13 displays the information of the adjacent taxi 20 received from the server 30 and provides the user with a taxi list of call requests. In this case, when the preferred taxi stored in the preferred taxi storage unit 11 is searched, it is displayed separately from other taxis so that the user can recognize the preferred taxi.

4 is an example of a taxi list screen provided by the taxi display unit 13.

Referring to FIG. 4, if there is a taxi stored in the preferred taxi storage unit 11 among the searched taxi information, the taxi display unit 13 displays the taxi so as to be distinguished from other taxis. For example, colors, sizes, or shapes may be displayed differently. To this end, the taxi display unit 13 checks whether the taxi information stored in the preferred taxi storage unit 11 is included in the adjacent taxi information received from the server 30, and if it includes the preferred taxi, It may be implemented including a processor (not shown) that executes software programmed to be distinguishable.

In addition, the taxi display unit 13 may extract only the taxi information stored as the preferred taxi in response to the user's input and display it separately from other taxis so that the user may more easily recognize the information about the preferred taxi.

The call performing unit 14 receives at least one taxi 20 from the user in the taxi list provided by the taxi display unit 13 and performs a call request. When performing a call request, the call execution unit 14 may transmit basic information necessary for the call request, for example, information on a boarding point, a boarding time, a boarding person, a destination, and the like, along with separate requirements of the user.

The arrival information request unit 15 requests the arrival information from the taxi 20 selected from the taxi list. Reach information refers to information that can be used as a basis for judgment in determining a taxi to call a user, for example, whether the user can reach the ride time, the estimated time to reach the ride point, etc. Can be. In this case, the user may select the plurality of taxis 20 from the taxi list and request the arrival information. The user selects a taxi 20 to request a call by referring to the arrival information received from the taxi 20.

The registration notification unit 16 notifies whether the taxi 20 or the server 30 is stored in the preferred taxi storage unit 11 and registered as a preferred taxi. Since the user registered as a preferred taxi can be a customer using the taxi 20 continuously, by opening the road to the customer management by notifying the registration of the taxi 20, the change of circumstances in the taxi 20 In this case, the taxi 20 or the server 30 transmits the information about this to the user to be reflected in the information about the preferred taxi. For example, when a taxi driver or a vehicle is changed, it is necessary to notify the user since it may have a significant influence in determining whether or not to maintain the registration of the preferred taxi.

In this case, the notification of registration may be sent directly to the taxi 20 registered as a preferred taxi, or may be sent to the server 30. In both cases, the notification of whether registration is made for the purpose of receiving various types of information generated by the taxi 20 is the same, but whether the information is directly received from the taxi 20 or via the server 30. There is a difference in whether it is received.

The taxi 20 or server 30 designated as the preferred taxi can be transmitted with the fact that registered as a preferred taxi and the unique identification ID to communicate with the user terminal 10, the taxi 20 or the server 30 is unique Various information may be transmitted to the user terminal 10 through the identification ID. Through this, it opens the way to attract and manage passengers in the taxi 20, it is possible to improve the quality of the taxi service through the service competition between the taxi.

The preferred taxi storage unit 11 receives the change information of the taxi 20 registered as the preferred taxi, and corrects it by reflecting the information on the preferred taxi. In addition, the preference taxi storage unit 11 displays the changed information to the user so that the user can recognize the change and delete or modify the registration of the preference taxi in response to the change.

Hereinafter, referring to FIG. 5, a series of processes for inputting and changing information about a preference taxi in the user terminal 10 will be described.

5 is a flowchart illustrating a process of managing information about a preference taxi.

Referring to FIG. 5, a user registers information about a preference taxi that prefers to ride through the user terminal 10. The taxi information may be directly input by the user, or may be registered by being received from another user terminal 10 (S10 and S11). In this case, the user may store a memo related to the reason for registering as the preferred taxi, for example, a memo such as being friendly to the driver, and later use the same to manage the preferred taxi information.

When registered as a preferred taxi in the user terminal 10, it is notified whether or not the registered taxi 20 is registered (S13). At this time, by transmitting the unique identification ID of the registered user terminal 10 can receive the change information of the taxi 20, various information for attracting passengers and the like.

Preferred taxi information is registered by the user for the purpose of continual use due to previous boarding experiences, so when a change of information such as taxi driver change or vehicle change occurs that may affect registration or not, the taxi (20 ) Informs the user terminal 10 of this (S15).

The user terminal 10 modifies the stored information in response to the situation change information of the taxi 20 (S17). In this case, the user terminal 10 may provide the changed contents to the user and allow the user to determine whether to continue registration of the preferred taxi.

Meanwhile, in the above, the taxi 20 is directly notified of whether or not to register the preferred taxi, but as described above, the user terminal 10 notifies the server 30 of whether the preferred taxi is registered, and via the server 30. Of course, it is also possible to receive a variety of information of the taxi 20.

6 and 7 are block diagrams of the server 30 according to the first and second embodiments of the present invention, respectively. The first embodiment and the second embodiment are determined by the presence or absence of data processing for distinguishing the taxi and the other taxis from the taxi display unit 13 of the user terminal 10. Let's explain.

First, referring to FIG. 6, the server 30 according to the first embodiment includes a taxi search unit 31, a preferred taxi extraction unit 32, a taxi information providing unit 33a, a preferred taxi storage unit 34, and the like. The change information providing unit 35 is included.

The taxi search unit 31 searches for taxi information adjacent to the boarding point of the user in response to the taxi information search request of the user terminal 10. In this case, the taxi search unit 31 may receive information on the taxi search option input by the user terminal 10 and perform a taxi search in response to the input option. For example, if the user selects a tolerance private taxi within a radius of 2km from the boarding point as a search option, the taxi search unit 31 satisfies this based on driving information received from the taxi 20 and basic taxi information stored in advance. The taxi 20 is searched.

The preferred taxi extraction unit 32 extracts taxi information corresponding to the preferred taxi from the taxi information retrieved by the taxi search unit 31. The preference taxi extracting unit 32 receives information on the preference taxi from the user terminal 10 and determines whether the preferred taxi is included in the retrieved taxi information based on the information. At this time, the preference taxi extracting unit 32 may receive information about the preferred taxi whenever a taxi search request is received from the user terminal 10, but when registered as the preferred taxi in the user terminal 10, unlike the first time Receiving and storing the information, based on the stored information may be extracted taxi information of the preferred taxi.

The taxi information providing unit 33a classifies the taxi information corresponding to the preferred taxi and the other taxi information according to the processing result of the preferred taxi extraction unit 32 and transmits them to the user terminal 10. The user terminal 10 receives taxi information divided from the taxi information providing unit 33a, and displays the taxis by different colors, shapes, sizes, etc. so that the preferred taxi is distinguished from other taxis.

On the other hand, as shown in Figure 6, the server 30 according to the first embodiment includes a preference taxi storage unit 34 and the change information providing unit 35 has a significant impact in determining whether or not to continue registration of the preference taxi When there is a change in circumstances that may cause a problem, the user terminal 10 may be notified to request resetting of information on the preferred taxi. Hereinafter, the preferred taxi storage unit 34 and the change information providing unit 35 will be described in detail.

The preference taxi storage unit 34 receives and stores information on the preference taxi from the user terminal 10. Stored taxi information is provided to the user terminal 10 by providing the rank of the registered taxi 20 to the user terminal 10 for reference, or the taxi information corresponding to the taxi in the preferred taxi extraction unit 33a It can also be used for extraction.

The change information providing unit 35 receives and stores the change information from the taxi 20 and notifies the user terminal 10 which stores the change information as a preferred taxi so that the user can modify the information about the preferred taxi. The change information providing unit 35 receives and stores important situation change information such as a taxi driver change, a vehicle change, or a reason for stopping a vehicle from the taxi 20. Subsequently, the change information is transmitted to the user terminal 10 that has registered the taxi 20 that has been changed as a preferred taxi based on the information stored in the preferred taxi storage unit 34 to request resetting of information on the preferred taxi. The user terminal 10 may change the information about the preferred taxi based on the information provided by the change information provider 35.

As described above, according to the server 30 according to the first exemplary embodiment, data processing for distinguishing between a preferred taxi and another taxi from the searched taxi information is performed in the server 30. On the contrary, according to the second embodiment, there is a difference that the above data processing is performed in the user terminal 10.

Referring to FIG. 7, the server 30 according to the second embodiment of the present invention includes a taxi search unit 31, a taxi information providing unit 33b, a preferred taxi storage unit 34, and a change information providing unit 35. ). Since the taxi search unit 31, the preferred taxi storage unit 34, and the change information providing unit 35 are the same as in the first embodiment, detailed descriptions will be omitted for simplicity.

Since the server 30 according to the second embodiment does not need to extract the preferred taxi from the search information, it does not include the preferred taxi extracting unit 32, and the taxi information providing unit 32b does not process the information. 31 is different from the first embodiment in that the taxi information retrieved in step 31 is transmitted to the user terminal 10.

On the other hand, since the user is difficult to know information other than the taxi 20 directly boarded, the server 30 according to the present invention further includes a preferred taxi recommendation unit (not shown) for recommending a preferred taxi to the user terminal 10. This can be referred to when the user stores the information about the preference taxi. The preferred taxi recommendation unit receives the information on the requirements of the preferred taxi from the user terminal 10, and based on the information about the taxi 20 stored in the server 30, the taxi 20 corresponding to the requirements desired by the user The search is provided to the user terminal 10. In this case, the information on the requirements of the preferred taxi may be information such as the name of the transport company, the type of vehicle, the years of experience of the driver, the garage.

8 is a flowchart illustrating a process of performing a taxi call through the taxi call system according to the first embodiment of the present invention. The first embodiment is a case where the data processing for distinguishing between the preferred taxi and another taxi is performed in the user terminal 10.

Referring to FIG. 8, the user terminal 10 requests the server 30 to search for taxi information adjacent to a boarding point (S20). In this case, the user may input information regarding a riding point, and may input and transmit a search option such as a search radius, a type of taxi, and whether a passenger boards. The server 30 is received from the user terminal 10 on the basis of the operation information, such as basic information about the taxi 20 stored in advance, real-time location information received from the taxi 20, whether to board the passenger, whether there is a boarding reservation or not In response to the information, that is, the boarding point, the search option, and the like, the taxi 20 adjacent to the boarding point is searched and transmitted to the user terminal 10 (S21, S23, and S25).

The user terminal 10 determines whether there is taxi information stored as a preferred taxi in the preferred taxi storage unit 11 among the taxi information received from the server 30, and the shape, size, color, etc. so that the preferred taxi is identified with other taxis. The taxi list is displayed differently (S27). In this case, the user terminal 10 may extract and display only information on the preferred taxi from the taxi list in response to the user input.

The user may select the taxi 20 from the taxi list and request the arrival information (S29). For example, the user may transmit the arrival request time to the taxi 20, and may request various pieces of information necessary for determining whether the call request can be made within the arrival request time and whether the call request can be made. The user requests a call by selecting the taxi 20 based on the taxi information, such as the location information of the taxi 20 provided by the server 30, the taxi information such as the taxi number, and the arrival information received from the taxi 20 (S31). .

Taxi 20 receives the call request from the user terminal 10, and transmits the response to the call request to the user terminal 10 (S33). For example, the user terminal 10 transmits request information, such as a boarding point and a desired ride time, to the taxi 20 when the call is requested, and whether the taxi 20 can respond based on the request. The decision is made to determine whether to accept the call.

9 is a flowchart illustrating a process of performing a taxi-call through a taxi-call system according to a second embodiment of the present invention. Unlike the first embodiment, the second embodiment is a case in which data processing for distinguishing between a taxi and another taxi is performed in the server 30.

Referring to FIG. 9, the user terminal 10 requests the server 30 to search for taxi information adjacent to a boarding point. In this case, the user terminal 10 is different from the first embodiment in that it transmits the stored preference information to the server 30 together (S40).

In response to the search request from the user terminal 10, the server 30 searches for taxi information adjacent to a user's boarding point based on driving information received from the taxi 20 (S41 and S43). The server 30 extracts information about the preferred taxi from the taxi information searched based on the information about the preferred taxi (S45), and transmits the extracted information to the user terminal 10 by distinguishing the extracted information from other taxi information ( S47).

The user terminal 10 provides the user with a taxi list in which the preferred taxi and the other taxis are displayed based on the taxi information transmitted from the server 30 (S49).

In the meantime, the following steps for the user requesting the arrival information to the taxi 20 and performing a call request are the same as the steps S29, S31, and S33 described in the first embodiment, and thus detailed description thereof will be omitted ( S51, S53, S55).

Meanwhile, each step described in FIGS. 8 and 9 may be appropriately added, changed, or omitted as necessary. For example, when the number of taxis 20 retrieved from the server 30 is not sufficient, the user may further include requesting the server 30 to re-search by changing the search option by widening the search radius. In addition, the step of requesting the arrival information to the taxi 20 is omitted, and may immediately perform a call request by selecting the taxi 20 from the taxi list.

Although some embodiments of the present invention have been described above, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the present embodiments may be modified without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

For example, the user terminal 10 stores a list of non-preferred taxis in which the user is reluctant to board as well as a preferred taxi, and provides a taxi list by excluding the taxi 20 stored in the non-preferred taxi from the taxi information retrieved from the server 30. It may further include a function to do this.

Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be determined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
