<purchase from fitness>

For example, let's assume that fitness center A sells a 12-month pass to general members of fitness center A at 500,000 won. At this time, the payment unit 320 may purchase a 12-month ticket for fitness center A at 700,000 won to 800,000 won, and may sell it to the user terminal 100 for 5,000 won in the form of a one-day pass. At this time, it is ideal to sell one per day on the basis of 30 days on the platform of the present invention, that is, the sales service providing server 300, but only 70% is sold, that is, 21 one-day tickets are sold per month Assuming, 105,000 won, which is 5,000 won X 21 days (each), is monthly sales, and 105,000 won X 12 months, or 1.26 million won, is annual sales. At this time, since the principal amount, that is, the amount purchased from fitness center A is 700,000 to 800,000 won, subtracting this amount generates a profit of 460,000 to 560,000 won, which becomes the platform profit of the present invention. Here, the purchase price may be determined according to mutual agreement between the owner of the center of the affiliated store terminal 400 and the owner of the platform of the present invention, that is, the sales service providing server 300 or an employee in charge of the business.

The information unit 330 may manage user information of the user terminal 100 when membership is selected and paid for in the user terminal 100 . The user terminal 100 may proceed with payment after specifying the location, day, and time of the center to use the membership. In this case, since it is a 1-day ticket without specifying the day or time, designation of the day and time may not be required if it can be used at any time within the month. At this time, if the fact that the user has purchased a membership is sent to the affiliated store terminal 400 of the center to be used by the user, unnecessary excessive traffic may occur in the affiliated store terminal 400, so the platform of the present invention provides and manages cloud services When the user terminal 100 outputs a QR code or barcode, the merchant terminal 400 scans or reads it, provides the scanned or read QR code or barcode to the information unit 330, and the information unit ( If authentication is performed in step 330, that is, the user who made the payment is authenticated, the affiliated store terminal 400 receives only the result of the toss and grants entry permission.

The admission management unit 340 transmits an identification code to the user terminal 100, and when the identification code is recognized in at least one affiliated store terminal 400, the recognized identification code and the identification code transmitted to the user terminal 100 Determines whether or not to allow entry according to whether or not matches, transmits to at least one affiliated store terminal 400, and if matches, the membership purchased from the user terminal 100 is used to correspond to any one of the number of times, days, and period can annihilate For example, if it is a one-time ticket or a multi-ticket, the former expires and the latter is deducted by the number of times used, and if it is a one-day or multi-day ticket, the former expires and the latter is deducted by the number of days used, and if it is a commuter pass, it can be deducted by the period used .

The incentive providing unit 350 may allow access to at least one platform service so as to use at least one platform service when at least one affiliated store terminal 400 registers as an affiliated store. At this time, at least one platform service may include store management, membership management, and sales settlement management services. Here, the platform service may be provided in the form of SaaS, but may be implemented in the form of hybrid SaaS according to the recent issue of the Personal Information Protection Act.

Cloud computing can be divided into public, private, and hybrid cloud types. In the case of public clouds, there is no need to build internally using all the resources of external clouds, but they are relatively vulnerable to security. In the case of a private cloud, it is expensive to build and use inside a company or institution. In the case of hybrid cloud, the advantages of public and private can be used, but there are difficulties in perfect implementation. To this end, the application function according to an embodiment of the present invention performs management and update in the main cloud, and is constructed to process and store data in conjunction with a database built inside each affiliated store terminal 400. . If it is built so that the service can be operated by downloading information from the main cloud from the sub cloud, the risk of security incidents is reduced because the data is not exported to the outside, and even if the main cloud becomes unavailable, the sub cloud can be operated individually.

The promotion unit 360 may expose the center of at least one affiliated store terminal 400 located within a preset radius based on the location of the user terminal 100 to the user terminal 100 for free or to advertise for a fee. At this time, in addition to being based on location, it is also possible to promote after targeting through collaborative filtering. For example, user A is an office worker and works in Yeoksam-dong from 9 am to 6 pm. Even if you sell User A a discount voucher for 3:00 PM at a fitness center near Yeoksam-dong for 1,000 won, User A cannot go and there is a high possibility that User A will ignore it because User A has no need for it. The sender's number is likely to be spammed. At this time, if user A is provided with a text message saying that there will be a 1,000 won event at 7:00 am before going to work or at 6:00 pm or 7:00 pm after going to work, user A can go and see it out of curiosity. In this way, it is important to whom to recommend what and how, and at this time, collaborative filtering is used. In other words, if you group users into similar groups, know what people in similar groups do, when they are available, and what they like, and recommend items similarly, you can increase the likelihood of accepting the recommendation, although not perfectly 100%.

<Collaborative filtering>

A recommendation system is a kind of information filtering technology, and is mainly divided into collaborative filtering and content-based filtering. By combining the advantages of these two filtering methods, a hybrid method aimed at improving the cold start problem due to lack of data can be used, and a recommendation system using a deep learning model can be used. For example, since the Wide model returns detailed prediction results based on training data, it can make highly accurate recommendations to users with little information and biased tendencies. Alternatively, the deep model is a model constructed based on a DNN (Deep Neural Network). The network generalizes and learns training data to recommend various products, and high serendipity can be expected. In order to improve the disadvantages of the wide model and the deep model, a combination of the two wide & deep models can be used. always make Furthermore, it is possible to use a WDSI (Wide & Deep Learning Sharing Input Data) model that shares the input values of the wide model and the deep model.

The user management unit 370 requests a review from the user terminal 100 when the user terminal 100 purchases a membership card, and when the user terminal 100 receives a review, at least one affiliated store terminal 400 Upload by mapping with and manage the history of membership use as a history log.

The statistical unit 380, when requesting a review from the user terminal 100, requests a star rating for at least one evaluation index, averages the star scores for the at least one evaluation index, and obtains at least one statistical index for each evaluation index. can be output as For example, at least one evaluation index may be divided into delivery quality, social quality, product quality, and environmental quality, and each may include 5 to 10 questions, and may be as shown in Table 1 below, but the questions are limited to the following questions. It is not.

quality type question evaluation index delivery quality Handling customer complaints well Employees voluntarily help Continuing to provide necessary information Reliability of service and complaint handling Respond kindly to customers environmental quality well ventilated Convenient to use facilities maintaining the right temperature The layout of the internal facilities is appropriate. Facilities such as rest room are good product quality the cost is right Efforts to develop new programs Efforts to improve business to provide services have specialized knowledge Appropriate program structure and content Business system is accurately classified have adequate expertise social quality The business process is transparent Facility is safe Business processing conforms to moral standards Safe management of personal information Comply with relevant regulations

At this time, after receiving a review on whether service quality and customer behavioral intentions, that is, whether they affect revisit intention, recommendation intention, and word of mouth intention, the correlation can be analyzed with Pearson's correlation coefficient (Correlation Analysis). . At this time, demographic characteristics such as gender, age, and frequency of use may also be considered. In addition, correlation can be verified through regression analysis, for example, multiple linear regression can be used. If, as a result of analyzing the effect of service quality on revisit intention, which is a sub-factor of customer behavioral intention, it was found that the sub-factors of service quality, delivery quality, environmental quality, and social quality, had a significant effect, and product quality had an effect If it is found that the members who use the fitness center continue to extend their membership, the quality of delivery, the quality of the environment related to the facility, the safety of the facility and compliance with related regulations, etc. It can be interpreted that the social quality of This result may be delivered to each center. When a purchase request is made from the user terminal 100, the resale unit 390 transfers an amount corresponding to the number of remaining days to the total period of the requested membership to the user terminal. (100), purchase the requested membership by paying a predetermined transfer fee to the affiliated store terminal (400) that sold the requested membership, and purchase the requested membership to any one of a one-day ticket, a one-time ticket, a multi-time ticket, and a multi-day ticket Alternatively, resale may be performed by dividing into at least one combination.

<Purchase from individual members>

For example, suppose user B purchases a 12-month pass for 500,000 won at A fitness center, but the remaining period is 6 months, and user B wants to quit fitness and learn flying yoga, so the transfer is urgent. In this case, when user B uses the user terminal 100 to upload a membership card for A fitness center with a remaining period of 6 months to the payment unit 320, the payment unit 320 receives 1/2 of 500,000 won, that is, the remaining Since the period is 6 months and the usable period is 1/2, it is possible to set 250,000 won as the purchase price and immediately transfer it to the user terminal 100 of user B. At this time, the payment unit 320 may pay 100,000 won for the transfer permission fee to fitness center A, which may be the amount set in fitness center A, and may or may not be present in each fitness center, or may be different in each fitness center. The payment unit 320 may sell the A fitness membership for 5,000 won in the form of a one-day pass. At this time, it is ideal to sell one per day on the basis of 30 days on the platform of the present invention, that is, the sales service providing server 300, but only 70% is sold, that is, 21 one-day tickets are sold per month Assuming, 105,000 won, which is 5,000 won X 21 days (each), is a month's sales, and 105,000 won X 6 months, or 630,000 won, is 6 months' sales.

At this time, since the principal amount, that is, the amount purchased from user B is 250,000 won and the transfer permission fee paid to fitness center A is 100,000 won, subtracting these, a profit of 280,000 won is generated, which becomes the platform profit of the present invention. In the case of a fitness center with a low monthly usage rate, the fitness center fee is calculated equally to enable transactions between members, so that members can use the fitness center at a low price, and the fitness center allows transfer of fitness vouchers that should be refunded in exchange for money As such, it can generate revenue. Since these transactions are also transactions made within the platform according to an embodiment of the present invention, the sales service providing server 300 according to an embodiment of the present invention may earn commission revenue.

The information providing unit 391 collects and stores the member utilization rate by season, date, day of the week, and time from at least one affiliated store terminal 400, and provides a discount or If coupon issuance is proposed to at least one affiliated store terminal 400, and at least one CCTV is interlocked with at least one affiliated store terminal 400, objects in the video of at least one CCTV are analyzed to analyze the user member by day and time The gender and age of the center may be analyzed, the occupancy rate of at least one exercise machine included in the center may be displayed as a degree of congestion, and the gender, age, and degree of congestion by day and time may be output as an infographic.

<Congestion>

Objects detected by CCTV are counted, the real-time number of members is counted and provided as a history log, and the density is calculated according to the number of real-time members compared to the size of the center space, and provided by day and time. At this time, the number of each person is counted using intelligent CCTV, and if 2M distance must be maintained, a unit area of 2m square per person is set. You can set it to low and show it. In addition, the number of treadmills and the number currently occupied, for example, if there are 10 treadmills and 10 are occupied, the center with only treadmills is currently 100%, that is, the congestion is 100%, so it can no longer accommodate, and the available number of people is 0 people Of course, if you exercise without using equipment, for example, you may be a person who does GX, PT (Personal Training), yoga, etc., or you may do bare-body gymnastics or stretching, so the equipment occupancy rate may not be immediately indicated as congestion. Using this information, people can choose a quiet time to go or get exercise or management while avoiding people.

At this time, in the case of congestion, it is most accurate to count each object using CCTV, but as there are many recent personal information protection laws and related laws are newly established, terminals located in fitness centers using WIFI APs (Access Points) A method of estimating the number of may be used. Accordingly, a method of estimating the number of people indoors from Channel State Information (CSI) using a WiFi AP may be used. The method using WiFi is non-image based, so there is no concern about invasion of privacy and there is no need to install a new device.

<Channel State Information>

In an indoor environment, the WiFi signal is transmitted to the receiver as a multipath signal through reflection, scattering, and diffraction.

N is the number of multipath signal components, and αi(t), Φi(t), and τi(t) are the amplitude, phase, and delay time of the ith multipath component, respectively. Most WiFi devices use an orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) system, and the fast Fourier transform (FFT) of h(t) in Equation 1 corresponds to the channel frequency response or physical layer CSI of the OFDM system. The CSI of OFDM is shown in Equation 2 below.

The CSI for the k-th subcarrier is expressed as in Equation 3 below, where |Hi(n)| is the amplitude and ∠Hi(n) is the phase.

It is possible to track the activities of people who do not carry any devices using WiFi signals. It is also possible to use feature engineering techniques and ML (Machine Learning) models to extract desired activity information from the CSI of WiFi signals. In addition, open data (EHUCOUNT) including WiFi measurement values and the number of people can be used in various indoor environments. Channel state information including amplitude and phase information for 53 subcarriers of the OFDM signal may be used. Accordingly, in an embodiment of the present invention, an ML model useful for estimating the number of people using EHUCOUNT is used. In addition, based on the DNN model, a method for estimating the number of people in the room is also used. A DNN model with three hidden layers is created using sigmoid as an activation function, and the test data measured in the actual room You can also verify its performance.

<People estimation DNN model>

A DNN model can consist of an input layer, a hidden layer, and an output layer. The EHUCOUNT dataset provides amplitude and phase information for 53 subcarriers. Thus, the input layer of the DNN model may consist of 106 nodes accordingly. The hidden layer may have four layers. As an activation function, Swish can be used for three layers and Relu can be used for the fourth layer. In the output layer, softmax can be used for classification. After setting the learning rate as an initial value, Adam Optimizer can be used. The loss function can use Softmax Cross Entropy. Of course, in addition to the above-described method, the number of people can be counted using image-based intelligent CCTV, counters such as turnstiles can be installed in each center, and then the number of people can be counted using them, or various other methods can be used.

In addition, the platform according to an embodiment of the present invention identifies the case where the mask is not properly worn or the mask is not completely worn when the self-driving robot or drone is present, and after 3 warnings when the mask is not properly worn You can report not wearing a mask. In the case of Seoul Metropolitan City, an administrative order to comply with the quarantine guidelines for wearing masks to strengthen COVID-19 prevention and control in accordance with Seoul Metropolitan Government Notice Nos. It was said that it would be disposed of in accordance with Article 49 (1) 2-2 of the Act, but in the case of those who have recently completed the second vaccination, they are allowed to take off their masks outdoors as an incentive system, so they do not wear masks when using each facility. Due to the situation, users are even more reluctant to go to the fitness center.

The government withdrew the lifting of the mandatory wearing of outdoor masks for vaccinated persons in the metropolitan area three days after the incentive was issued, but most people either did not know this or did not want to use it even after knowing it, so they did not use it even indoors, and when pointing out no-mask, masks were worn. People who don't wear it are behaving badly or assaulting and swearing at the manager, so general members and users choose not to come to the fitness center instead of telling the person who is not wearing a mask to wear a mask. Therefore, after identifying a face using a mobile device such as a self-driving robot or a drone that can identify objects, if there is no mask on the same face and a warning is issued three or more times, it can be immediately reported to the local government. .

In addition, if an air conditioner or HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) is installed in each fitness center, the indoor carbon dioxide concentration is checked and when the carbon dioxide concentration reaches a preset value, a fan is operated to discharge the bet to the outside. After that, a method of rotating the fan in the reverse direction may be used to introduce outside air into the inside. Ventilation is recommended to be done once an hour, but since the fitness center is located in the building and noise reports are often received from the lower or upper floors of the same building, the fitness center is closed for classes such as GX or yoga, and classes are conducted. Most of them. Accordingly, the outside air is discharged to the inside and the bet to the outside at a predetermined time, and the ventilated log may be used as a catchphrase for publicity while providing the user.

<Real-time ranking provided>

In the case of a fitness center, if a trainer is hired or not participating in GX, there are cases where people come out after listening to or using exercise equipment by themselves. Sometimes, there are people who are curious about what and how other people do, but they just peek without looking. Accordingly, data of users who are exercising using the same equipment in real time may be collected and rankings may be provided in real time so as to exercise a little longer and a lot by using a competitive spirit. For example, if 10 users use a treadmill, each ranking is provided according to how many km per hour they are currently running, how many km they have run cumulatively, and how many minutes or hours they have run. may also provide. Since each user's usage time can be different, the ranking of this ranking can change frequently and can give an interesting element such as gamification. To this end, an IoT device must be attached to each exercise equipment, and data collected from each IoT device must be collected in the affiliated store terminal 400 . In addition, the result may be relayed in real time through one display connected to the affiliated store terminal 400 .

Hereinafter, an operation process according to the configuration of the above-described sales service providing server of FIG. 2 will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4 as examples. However, it will be apparent that the embodiment is only any one of various embodiments of the present invention, and is not limited thereto.

Referring to FIG. 3 , (a) the sales service providing server 300 registers at least one affiliated store terminal 400 as an affiliated store (partner company), and (b) purchases and divides membership rights or sells them as they are. (c) When the user terminal 100 searches for a fitness center based on location, selects a membership type, and makes a payment, the sales service providing server 300 transmits an identification code to the user terminal 100, and the information is sent to the sales service It is recorded in the provision server 300, and when the identification code output on the screen of the user terminal 100 is scanned or read by the affiliated store terminal 400 thereafter, this information is again transmitted to the sales service providing server 300 to provide sales service The providing server 300 confirms whether or not the user has made the payment, receives the result from the affiliated store terminal 400, and outputs the result.

(d) When the sales service providing server 300 is connected to the CCTV of each affiliated store terminal 400, it can analyze the congestion by time and day and user member information and process them as statistical data, as shown in FIG. 4 (a) Coupons and discounts may be proposed to the affiliated store terminal 400, and the selection probability may be increased by exposing the corresponding center to target customers. (b) A few hours after the identification code is scanned or read, or in the evening, the sales service providing server 300 may request a review from the user terminal 100, and send a text message indicating which points were good or which points were disappointing. You can receive points, or you can get points for each evaluation item. This is because it is difficult for the user to write in the case of entering text, and it takes a lot of time and money to pre-process, natural language, and interpret it. Accordingly, by allowing stars to be given to each evaluation item, for example, "Was the facility clean?", ★★☆☆☆, it is good to collect reviews and derive improvements, and it is costly to process data. It can be designed so that it does not fall.

In addition, (c) If quarantine management is being carried out by autonomous robots or drones, and air conditioners are operated at preset times to bring in outside air and discharge air, is there anyone wearing a no-mask? Depending on how many minutes the air conditioner runs, a tag icon can be attached to each center to provide a way to publicize it. For example, if the sales service providing server 300 receives data from the air conditioner (not shown) via the affiliated store terminal 400 indicating that the air conditioner is running every 10 minutes in the fitness center A, "ventilation every 10 minutes" " tags can be attached as icons. In addition, if no one is not wearing a mask when a drone, autonomous robot, or manager (human) checks, or all are worn when a warning is given, a tag called "all wearing masks" can be attached as an icon.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the price of a one-day ticket or one-time ticket is high, for example, in the case of a gym, because there is no or little incentive in the platform for the service according to the prior art. , It is possible to lower entry barriers by providing various incentives to member stores, buying directly from member stores, or purchasing memberships that members do not use and want to receive refunds, and providing one-day or one-time tickets at a low price, for example, 10,000 won or less. Thus, it is possible to increase the pie of the entire market by attracting demand from users who are hesitant to purchase due to high prices or resistance to long-term payment.

The platform according to an embodiment of the present invention purchases membership rights from user terminals 100 or enables membership transactions between user terminals 100 . In general, since membership is refunded to the affiliated store, damage occurs to the affiliated store, and this is one of the cases in which disputes between the affiliated store and consumers occur the most. In the platform of the present invention, direct purchase or transaction between user terminals 100 is activated, In the case of a transaction, an amount obtained by adding an additional amount to the transfer fee is provided to the affiliated store, so that the affiliated store can make a profit, so that a dispute between the affiliated store and the user cannot occur. However, since the additional amount may be higher than the general transfer fee depending on the period, it may be included as an incentive item.

In addition, in an embodiment of the present invention, it may be possible to directly sell memberships in the affiliated store terminal 100 . In other words, if any one or at least one combination of one-day tickets, one-time tickets, commuter tickets, and multi-time tickets sold on the platform is sold, the merchant determines the sales price for each day or hour with fewer users and provides a function that can be sold at all times. In addition, franchisees can maximize profits by minimizing the idle time of exercise equipment.
