It's about an integrated platform.

Blockchain is a technology that guarantees the integrity of the contents of transactions recorded in each block of the blockchain through verification by a number of people. Due to the difficulty in hacking a number of verification results, such a block chain has been recently applied and used in various fields, and attempts are being made to apply it to fields related to vehicles.

Vehicles are a combination of thousands of precision electronic and mechanical parts. Nevertheless, in the existing vehicle management and vehicle-related transactions, one-to-one transaction between the parties to the transaction was the main method. Although a variety of services, goods, and goods must be used for vehicle maintenance and management, conventionally, there has not been an appropriate platform capable of performing such a series of processing.

For example, auto parts companies have implemented a system such as each Enterprise Rewource Planning (ERP) system to perform material management, production management, and sales management. Salew) system was established and operated.

For this reason, it was difficult to link each system, and there was a problem that requests and processing results from one system could not be transferred to another system and were disconnected. In particular, in order to connect these systems, a platform capable of connecting different systems is required, but the situation is not being developed due to lack of utility for new platforms.

However, those skilled in the art will readily understand these details.

1 is an exemplary view for explaining the configuration of a vehicle service integration platform based on a block chain according to a first embodiment of the present invention.

1, a vehicle service integration platform based on a block chain according to the first embodiment of the present invention includes a vehicle (10: 10a, 10b), a first company system (20: 20a to 20n), and a server (40). It consists of including.

The vehicle 10 receives a service or purchases a product and pays for it using the first company system 20. In the present invention, the vehicle 10 is understood as a concept including a vehicle owner or a vehicle driver. In addition, communication between the vehicle 10 and the first company system 20 or the server 40 may be performed by a computer terminal installed in the vehicle 10, for example, a device such as a navigation system, or the vehicle 10 It may also be performed using the mobile terminal of the user who operates or owns. The present invention is a platform including not only an autonomous vehicle but also a vehicle that the driver directly drives. Hereinafter, except for a case where separate classification is required, I will not distinguish between the vehicle 10 and the driver.

The vehicle 10 is registered in the first company system 20 or the server 40, and is subscribed to the vehicle service integrated platform service. In this case, the vehicle information includes information about the vehicle itself, such as a vehicle number, vehicle type, and vehicle identification number, and member information, which is information about a driver or owner who operates the vehicle. In this case, the member information may include information for payment.

The vehicle 10 purchases a product or receives a service through the first company system 20 and pays for it. Specifically, the vehicle 10 may purchase products such as vehicle consumables, parts, fuel, and vehicle supplies, or may be provided with services such as repair, maintenance, and car washing. Expenses for performing transactions such as product purchase or service of the vehicle 10 may be paid to the first company system 20 using payment means such as cash or card. In particular, the vehicle 10 is generated and accumulated by participating in the blockchain network, and can be paid using resource coins that can be used inside the blockchain network. This resource coin can be earned by accumulating transactions, purchasing using currency, and rewarding network node activities.

The first company system 20 provides product sales or services for the vehicle 10. The first company system 20 may be a dealership for selling parts, consumables, fuel, and vehicle supplies, or a service provider that provides services such as repair, maintenance, and car washing. The first company system 20 performs a transaction with the vehicle 10 according to sales or service provision. In addition, the first company system 20 transmits transaction information, which is information according to the transaction, to the server 40.

For such a transaction, the first company system 20 may include a system for sales, inventory, and member management, such as a point of sales (POS) system. In particular, in the present invention, a camera or a sensor is provided in the POS system, through which the vehicle is recognized. Then, by transmitting the vehicle recognition result to the server 40, it is possible to determine whether the vehicle is a vehicle subscribed to the platform service of the present invention, and to determine whether to transmit the transaction information to the server 40.

In particular, when it is identified as a vehicle subscribed to the platform service, the first company system 20 may request comprehensive information on the recognized vehicle 10 from the server 40. In addition to vehicle information, this comprehensive information includes transaction information related to the vehicle 10 and credit information according to the transaction. The first company system 20 may determine whether to make a transaction according to the credit information included in the comprehensive information. That is, the first company system 20 may not perform a transaction when the credit level recorded in the credit information is low, or may perform the transaction by selecting a payment method suitable for the credit level as a cost settlement method during the transaction.

The first company system 20 receives comprehensive information in the form of information described in a block of the block chain. To this end, a program capable of confirming and verifying blocks may be installed in the first company system 20. In addition, when a transaction for the recognized vehicle 10 is performed, the first company system 20 creates transaction information and transmits the created transaction information to the server 40. At this time, the transaction information includes the transaction item and payment information.

The server 40 provides platform services and serves to manage the vehicle 10 and the first company system 20. In particular, the server 40 creates and manages transaction related matters and member information generated between the vehicle 10 and the first company system 20 in a block chain, It is provided to the 1st company system (20). To this end, the server 40 constitutes a block chain network including the vehicle 10, the first company system 20, and the server 40 that are subscribed to the platform service.

More specifically, the server 40 creates a block chain for each member by using the member information when registering as a member of the vehicle 10 and the first company system 20. In particular, a block chain is formed for the vehicle 10, and at this time, a block chain for each vehicle 10 is generated by writing comprehensive information including vehicle information in a block of the block chain. Here, since credit information and transaction information do not exist when the initial block chain is formed, credit information and transaction information of "null" value or default value can be created and included. The present invention is not limited only by what has been suggested that information may be included in comprehensive information when it is generated.

To this end, the server 40 may calculate the credit rating for each vehicle 10 through transaction information including transaction details and payment information, and reflect the calculated credit rating in the credit information. To this end, the server 40 may be provided with a reference value and an algorithm for calculating the credit rating.

On the other hand, the server 40 plays a role of generating a block of a block chain for each vehicle whenever the comprehensive information is updated and generated. To this end, the server 40 receives transaction information from the first company system 20 when a transaction occurs between the first company system 20 and the vehicle 10 in which the comprehensive information is updated.

In addition, the server 40 receives the information of the vehicle 10 at the request of the first company system 20 that wants to make a transaction with the vehicle 10, that is, the first company system 20 that recognizes the vehicle 10. It is transmitted to the first company system (20). In this case, when the first company system 20 is a system capable of confirming a block in a block chain, the server 40 transmits the block as it is, whereas in the case of a general system, the server 40 may extract and transmit only the content of the block. Through this, it is possible for the server 40 to participate as a member of the platform service using the block chain network even the first company system 20, which is difficult to borrow directly from the block chain network.

On the other hand, when such information is updated and a new block is generated, the server 40 transmits it to each node, that is, the vehicle 10 and the first company system 20 to perform verification, and through this, the transaction details Can be confirmed.

Here, the above-described vehicle 10 or the first company system 20 may create a block and add it to the block chain, but in the present invention, the block is generated by the server 40, and other nodes are Only an example in which only verification is performed will be described. Block generation and verification by each node can be understood through a known block chain technology, and the present invention does not necessarily have to generate a block only by the server 40. However, by allowing a block to be generated by the server 40, it is possible to prevent the system load from being concentrated on the verification of nodes due to the block generation by an unspecified node, and the verification of the block chain by maintaining the verification function of the nodes as it is. There is an advantage that can increase the efficiency for.

2 is an exemplary diagram for explaining a service process using a blockchain-based platform system according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 2, companies related to the vehicle 10 of the present invention participate in a network operated by a single platform and use various information, thereby improving the convenience of the service provided by the vehicle 10 and providing the service. It can provide an effect such as increasing the activity of the providing company.

Specifically, the platform of the present invention collects transaction details and payment information generated in a transaction between the vehicle 10 and the first company, so that the first company provides a transaction recommendation, that is, a recommendation of a product or service, to the vehicle 10 It can be done, and stable transactions can be guaranteed through credit check. In particular, such information is protected in the form of a block chain, so that it is free from man-made manipulation, and based on this block chain, transactions using resource coins that are used only within the network can be made. It is possible to mass-produce value by using it with existing currencies, and it is possible to provide monetary profits by obtaining resource coins not only through transactions within the network, but also through information exchange. In particular, since the inter-transactional objects are joined as nodes through the platform, the stability of the blockchain network can be guaranteed compared to when an unspecified number of people participate in the network, and through this, it is possible to secure the credibility of the resource coin.

Since the use of resource coins and the configuration of a blockchain network by nodes in a transaction relationship can activate transactions within the network, a lot of information can be produced to trade and exchange information, in addition to products and services. It is possible to form a distribution structure composed of information and resource coins. In particular, since it is possible to participate in nodes that cannot generate or verify a block chain, which will be described below, there is an advantage that existing first-tier systems can also participate and use the service.

A process of providing a service using such a platform is illustrated in FIG. 2.

At this time, the server 40 includes vehicle information transmitted from the vehicle 10 in comprehensive information, and generates the comprehensive information as a block of a block chain. This blockchain is created for each vehicle 10. On the other hand, it is possible to form a block chain for the first company system 20, but in the present invention, the description will be mainly conducted based on the generation of information based on the vehicle 10 ③.

After membership registration is made, when the vehicle 10 visits the first company to make a transaction with the first company system 20 to which the member is subscribed, the first company system 20 recognizes the vehicle 10 and the vehicle number. Check ④. Then, the verified vehicle number is transmitted to the server 40 to request comprehensive information on the vehicle.

The first company system 20 receives the comprehensive information, checks the transaction information and credit information included in the comprehensive information, and determines whether or not to make a transaction with the vehicle 10 ⑥. In this case, a discount rate or payment method for the vehicle 10 may be determined using credit information and transaction information. Determination of the payment method is the process of determining whether to proceed in actual currency or to use resource coins as a payment method.

When a transaction is determined, the first company system 20 performs a transaction with the vehicle 10. As described above, such a transaction may be a spot transaction or an intangible transaction such as a service ⑦.

When a transaction is made, the first company system 20 creates transaction information including transaction details and payment information and transmits it to the server 40 ⑧.

The server 40 generates transaction information in a new block and adds it to the block chain of the vehicle 10⑨. Thereafter, the server 40 transmits the new block to nodes such as the vehicle 10 and the first company system 20, and requests verification from them. Resource coins can be rewarded to nodes during this verification process⑩.

When using such comprehensive information, the server 40 or the first company system 20 may inquire past transaction details through transaction information included in the comprehensive information. In addition, a service having periodicity, a service used by the vehicle 10 under the same conditions, or a product purchased may be recommended to the vehicle 10. ⑪
