Vehicle navigation systems using GPS are widely used car navigation systems. In addition, techniques for operating a vehicle without a driver by using a computer device and a sensor device including an autonomous vehicle of Google (registered trademark) have been emerging one after another. However, since the autonomous vehicle requires expensive equipment, It is difficult to expect to develop a practical self-propelled vehicle in the future.

On the other hand, recent GPS application positioning techniques, including Real Time kinematics, enable ultra-precise measurement in millimeters and are expected to be available in popular computing devices including smart devices in the near future.

On the other hand, while there are various methodologies for developing a program running on a computer, the appearance of a smart device having a different character from that of a previous computing device accompanies a new type of program called an app and a development methodology of the program. In addition, the new web technology, represented by HTML5, enables dynamic and real-time provision of the functions and contents provided by previous applications based on the PC through web pages. In addition to establishing the HTML5 standard, the growth of the program ecosystem Has dramatically increased the number of applications that the general public is seeing, and programs that meet a variety of demands are emerging one after another.

The combination of space web technology and GPS enables a system and method to autonomously operate a vehicle without drivers, without expensive equipment.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Referring to FIG. 1, a space web-based vehicle driving method and system according to the present invention includes a navigation terminal device 200 and a management server 300. The navigation terminal device 200 includes a device 200a ) And the one owned by the person (200b). The navigation terminal device includes a navigation app 204, a vehicle DB 202 and an internal DB 203. The management server 300 mainly operates on a web server and includes an external DB 302, a rule DB 620 ), And a navigation app template 304. The navigation terminal device 200 and the management server 300 can communicate with each other using a conventional wire / wireless method. The A place 100a, the B place 100b, and the C place 100c are specific physical spaces and places where the vehicle departs or arrives, and has GPS information. The navigation application 204 may be a native application running on the navigation terminal device, a web application, or a hybrid application. The driver DB 202a may store driver information, the vehicle DB 202b may store vehicle information, 203b are places where the navigation app collects or generates information. The route DB stores an ideal route between an unspecified number of departure places and a destination, and the navigation app 204b of the navigation terminal device mounted on the vehicle is connected to the vehicle control system 205 Start, start, acceleration, deceleration, stop, rotation, and other operations of the vehicle.

2,

The navigation app 204a installed in the navigation terminal device 200a of the vehicle A, the navigation app 204b installed in the navigation terminal device 200b of the driver B, The navigation app 204c installed in the navigation terminal device 200c of the navigation device C and the navigation app 204d installed in the navigation terminal device 200d of the driver D are all connected to the external DB 302 of the management server 300 Is a 'navigation application instance' in which one stored same navigation application template 304 is duplicated and initialized to the vehicle information stored in the driver DB 202a or the vehicle DB 202b of each navigation terminal device in FIG. In the present invention, the 'navigation app' means the 'navigation app instance' unless otherwise specified.

2, A is a self-driving vehicle, B, C, and D are assumed to be the drivers of the manned vehicle, and the route on which the autonomous vehicle is traveling is the one that the B, C, The road on which the GPS information of the route section is collected by the management server by the navigation apps of B, C, and D, respectively. It is also assumed that A, B, C, and D use the same type of navigation terminal device.

Referring to Fig. 3, the driver B can call the navigation app 204b installed in his / her navigation terminal device 200b to record the running process. The navigation app 204b may store the contents in the internal DB 203b and the management server may collect the contents and store the contents in the external DB 302. [ The recording includes GPS information of the vehicle movement section.

Referring to FIG. 4, the management server or the navigation app can derive one standard path from an unspecified number of coordinates in any one path using GPS information included in the travel records of B, C, and D, The rule DB 620 determines which statistical method, which interval, and to which accuracy the standard path is to be acquired, including obtaining the center, average, and mode values from each distribution of latitude, longitude, and altitude values and deriving a trend line. . However, there can be only one standard path of any one path corresponding to a certain navigation terminal apparatus type.

Referring to FIG. 5, the management server 300 is connected to the navigation apparatuses B, C, and D of FIG. 2 via the navigation app installed in the navigation terminal device, And then construct a standard path covering the entire road in one area through a statistical model including a normal distribution. This process is a method of extracting standard paths of B, C and D, summing up three standard paths, and extracting only one standard path per road, or a method of extracting each of navigation apps 204b, 204c, and 204d may be all arranged on one map, and only one standard path per road may be extracted from the coordinates. Thus, one road or section may have only one standard path per particular navigation terminal device type, and this standard path may be stored in the path DB 402 of FIG. 1 (FIG. 1).

In FIG. 6, the navigation terminal device of the vehicle or passenger includes only one GPS module, so that the current position of the vehicle can be grasped. However, with the GPS alone, between the arbitrary two points A and B included in the standard path, The autonomous driving vehicle can use a compass to determine the traveling direction between two points included in a standard route.

Referring to FIG. 7, the ground surface, the underground surface, the sea surface, and the sea floor space may be divided into a predetermined size, and an application may be allocated to each divided space. An application allocated to the space unit may be referred to as a space application, and a space application may be allocated to a specific space so that the space application can collect, store, and manage information on the standard path in the space. For example, the space between the Jeju Provincial Government and the Jeju Provincial Government may be composed of 50 unit spaces 100 divided into a certain size, and each unit space may be allocated a mutually independent space app to operate on the management server , A navigation app assigned to the navigation terminal device of the vehicle or the driver can determine the traveling route by communicating with each of the space apps. In addition, the space app collects a state or an event in a space expressed by each space, and when an event such as a traffic accident or road breakage occurs, the space app can notify the vehicle using the path included in the space expressed by the space app have. For example, if the road is broken in front of the Jeju Provincial Government Office, the space app allocated to the road-damaged area may enter the space or transmit the contents of the damage to the navigation app of the driver or the driver who intends to enter.

In addition, the communication method, rules and procedures between the space application and the navigation app can be stored in the rule database and retrieved by the applications as needed.
