The storage unit 330 is a device for storing data, and includes a main storage device and an auxiliary storage device, and stores information necessary for operation of the service device 300. The storage unit 330 may be an optical storage medium such as a magnetic medium such as a hard disk, a floppy disk and a magnetic tape, a CD-ROM (Compact Disk Read Only Memory), a DVD (Digital Video Disk) A magneto-optical medium such as a floppy disk and a ROM, a random access memory (RAM), and a flash memory. In particular, the storage unit 330 according to an embodiment of the present invention may store information related to the position of the cursor received from the host device 200, a retrieved advertisement related to the position of the cursor, a list of advertisements, The information related to the location may be statistically processed to store the retrieved advertisement and the list of interest advertisements.

Hereinafter, a method of providing an advertisement using a wireless mouse service according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

5 is a flowchart illustrating an advertisement providing method using a virtual wireless mouse service in a communication service system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 5, in step 1101, the terminal device 100 of the communication service system receives and stores a wireless mouse application from the service device 300 when the user requests downloading of the wireless mouse application from the web store, for example . Here, the wireless mouse application may not be provided from the service device 300, but may be transmitted to the terminal device 100 via a USB or the like by a user.

Accordingly, in step 1102, the terminal device 100 installs the provided wireless mouse application and executes the wireless mouse application according to the request of the user.

In step 1103, the terminal device 100 displays a screen for searching for a terminal device to be connected for a virtual wireless mouse service. When the user searches for a terminal device to be connected and selects an arbitrary terminal device, (200) and performs connection to the host device (200).

In step 1104, the terminal device 100 transmits the client software included in the wireless mouse application to the host device 200. At this time, the terminal device 100 can transmit the client monitoring program included in the wireless mouse application to the host device 200 together. The client software and the client monitoring program may be downloaded directly from the web site in the host device 200 without being transmitted from the terminal device 100. [

Accordingly, in step 1105, the host device 200 installs the received client software and executes the client software according to the request of the user. At this time, the host apparatus 200 installs and executes the client monitoring programs received together.

Thereafter, in step 1106, the terminal device 100 generates input information on the sensed input signal and transmits the generated input information to the host device 200 when the user senses the input signal through the gyroscope sensor. Accordingly, in step 1107, the host device 200 controls the position of the cursor according to the input information. At this time, in step 1108, the host device 200 monitors the current screen through the client monitoring program and confirms the current position of the cursor. Accordingly, the host apparatus 200 can read the screen information displayed in the position area of the identified cursor, and can confirm the information related to the cursor position through the read screen information. In step 1109, the host device 200 transmits the confirmed site information to the service device 300.

Accordingly, in step 1110, the service device 300 confirms information related to the position of the cursor received from the host device 200, and searches for an advertisement related to the information related to the position of the identified cursor.

Then, in step 1111, the service device 300 forms an advertisement list, adds the retrieved advertisement to the advertisement list, and generates advertisement information including the advertisement list. In step 1112, the service device 300 transmits the advertisement information generated in the terminal device 100 and the host device 200. [ Accordingly, in step 1113, the terminal device 100 displays the received advertisement information in one area of the virtual wireless mouse service screen, and the host device 200 displays the received advertisement information in one area of the current screen. At this time, if the service device 300 transmits the advertisement information only to the host device 200 in step 1112, the host device 200 can transmit the received advertisement information to the terminal device 100, Can receive the advertisement information from the host device 200 and display it on the screen.

In addition, the service device 300 statistically processes information related to the position of the received cursor, searches for an advertisement for information related to the position of the statistically processed cursor, forms an interest advertisement list, And may transmit the advertisement information to the terminal device 100 and the host device 200. [ Accordingly, the terminal device 100 can display the received interest advertisement information and provide it to the user.

The advertisement providing method using the wireless mouse service according to the embodiment of the present invention as described above can be implemented in the form of software readable by various computer means and recorded in a computer readable recording medium. Here, the recording medium may include program commands, data files, data structures, and the like, alone or in combination. Program instructions to be recorded on a recording medium may be those specially designed and constructed for the present invention or may be available to those skilled in the art of computer software. For example, the recording medium may be an optical recording medium such as a magnetic medium such as a hard disk, a floppy disk and a magnetic tape, a compact disk read only memory (CD-ROM), a digital video disk (DVD) Includes a hardware device that is specially configured to store and execute program instructions such as a magneto-optical medium such as a floppy disk and a ROM, a random access memory (RAM), a flash memory, do. Examples of program instructions may include machine language code such as those generated by a compiler, as well as high-level language code that may be executed by a computer using an interpreter or the like. Such a hardware device may be configured to operate as one or more software modules to perform the operations of the present invention, and vice versa.

While the present invention has been described in connection with what is presently considered to be practical exemplary embodiments, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments, but, on the contrary, It will be apparent to those skilled in the art. Furthermore, although specific terms are used in this specification and the drawings, they are used in a generic sense only to facilitate the description of the invention and to facilitate understanding of the invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.

The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for providing an advertisement using a virtual wireless mouse service, and a communication service system for the same. The wireless mouse application is installed in a terminal device, operates as a virtual wireless mouse, The user can easily use the terminal device as a wireless mouse anytime and anywhere without having to carry a separate mouse by controlling the cursor displayed on the screen in accordance with the input information input from the terminal device in cooperation with the device, There is no need to obtain an economic effect.

In addition, the present invention transmits information related to the position of the cursor corresponding to the position of the cursor displayed on the screen of the host device during the virtual wireless mouse service to the service device so that the cursor moves from the service device to the terminal device and the host device, Since the advertisement information related to the area in which the advertisement is provided can be provided, it is possible to use the advertisement in the industrial field because it can reduce the advertisement cost and maximize the advertisement effect because the advertisement can be provided at random.
