초음파 수신부(220)는 외부로부터 전송된 초음파를 수신한다. 초음파 수신부(220)는 단말기(200)에 통상적으로 설치되어 있는 음성인식부를 통해 초음파를 수신할 수 있다. The ultrasonic receiver 220 receives ultrasonic waves transmitted from the outside. The ultrasonic receiver 220 may receive ultrasonic waves through a voice recognition unit that is typically installed in the terminal 200.
초음파채널 확인부(230)는 초음파 수신부(220)에서 수신된 초음파를 초음파채널-어플리케이션DB(161)에 저장된 초음파채널로 분류된 초음파와 비교하여 일치되는 초음파로 분류된 초음파채널을 확인한다. 초음파채널 확인부(230)는 초음파 수신부(220)에 의해 초음파가 수신되면 수신된 초음파에 다수의 초음파가 혼합되어 있더라도 각각을 모두 확인할 수 있으며, 매칭되는 초음파채널을 확인할 수 있다.The ultrasonic channel identification unit 230 compares the ultrasonic waves received by the ultrasonic receiver 220 with the ultrasonic waves classified into the ultrasonic channels stored in the ultrasonic channel-application DB 161 to identify the ultrasonic channels classified as the matching ultrasonic waves. When ultrasonic waves are received by the ultrasonic receiver 220, the ultrasonic channel checker 230 may check all of the ultrasonic waves even if a plurality of ultrasonic waves are mixed with each other, and identify a matching ultrasonic channel.
어플리케이션 활성화부(240)는 초음파채널 확인부(230)에 의해서 일치되는 등록된 초음파가 확인되면, 초음파에 대응되게 등록된 어플리케이션을 실행시켜 단말기(200)로 표시한다. When the registered ultrasound matching the ultrasound channel confirmation unit 230 is confirmed, the application activator 240 executes the application registered corresponding to the ultrasound and displays it on the terminal 200.
알림부(250)는 어플리케이션 활성화부(240)에 의해서 단말기(200)의 어플리케이션이 활성화되면 사용자가 인지할 수 있도록 진동 또는 알람을 작동시킨다.The notification unit 250 activates a vibration or an alarm so that a user can recognize when an application of the terminal 200 is activated by the application activator 240.
이에 따라 단말기(200)가 슬리핑 상태이더라도 초음파를 수신하게 되면 관련 어플리케이션을 활성화시켜 사용자가 어플리케이션을 확인하여 이용할 수 있다. 예를 들면, 커피숍에서 초음파를 수신하면 쿠폰이 저장된 어플리케이션 또는 할인 내용을 알려주는 어플리케이션이 실행되어 사용자가 사용가능한 쿠폰 또는 할인내용을 확인할 수 있게 된다.Accordingly, even if the terminal 200 receives the ultrasound even when the terminal 200 is in the sleeping state, the user may activate the related application to check and use the application. For example, when the ultrasound is received at the coffee shop, an application for notifying the application of the coupon or the discount is executed and the user can check the available coupon or the discount.
이하, 도 4의 프로차트를 참조하여 본 발명의 초음파를 이용한 어플리케이션 활성화 과정에 대하여 살펴본다. Hereinafter, an application activation process using ultrasonic waves of the present invention will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 4.
먼저, 스마트폰, 테블릿PC 등의 유무선 단말기(200)에 쿠폰 어플리케이션, 교통 어플리케이션, 이벤트확인 어플리케이션, 콘텐츠확인 어플리케이션 등의 각종 어플리케이션이 설치되면, 사용자는 초음파채널-어플리케이션 설정부(210)를 통해 단말기(200)에 설치된 어플리케이션을 특정 초음파채널을 매칭시켜 초음파채널-어플리케이션DB(161)에 저장한다(단계 S01). 이때, 초음파채널은 초음파의 영역을 다수의 분할한 것 또는 이들을 N개 조합한 복합 초음파채널인 것이 바람직하다. 이와 같이 복합 초음파채널을 사용하면 표 3과 같이 등록할 어플리케이션이 다수개 존재하더라도 모두 등록할 수 있는 장점이 있다. First, when various applications such as a coupon application, a traffic application, an event checking application, a content checking application and the like are installed on a wired / wireless terminal 200 such as a smartphone or a tablet PC, the user may set the ultrasonic channel through the application setting unit 210. The application installed in the terminal 200 matches a specific ultrasonic channel and stores it in the ultrasonic channel-application DB 161 (step S01). In this case, the ultrasonic channel is preferably a plurality of divided regions of ultrasonic waves or a complex ultrasonic channel combining N of them. Using the composite ultrasonic channel as described above has the advantage that even if there are a plurality of applications to register as shown in Table 3, all can be registered.

한편, 단말기(200)의 초음파 수신부(220)는 외부의 초음파 발생장치(100)의 초음파 발생부(120)로부터 발신되는 초음파를 수신한다(단계 S02). 이러한 초음파 수신부(220)는 단말기(200)가 슬리핑 상태인 상태에서도 초음파를 수신하게 된다. 초음파 발생장치(100)는 유무선 컴퓨터, 휴대 단말기(200) 등을 포함하며 초음파 발생부(120)는 초음파 발생장치(100)에 연결된 스피커를 포함한다. Meanwhile, the ultrasonic receiver 220 of the terminal 200 receives ultrasonic waves transmitted from the ultrasonic generator 120 of the external ultrasonic generator 100 (step S02). The ultrasonic receiver 220 receives the ultrasonic wave even when the terminal 200 is in the sleeping state. The ultrasonic generator 100 includes a wired / wireless computer, a portable terminal 200, and the like, and the ultrasonic generator 120 includes a speaker connected to the ultrasonic generator 100.
사용자의 단말기(200)에서 초음파가 수신되면 초음파채널 확인부(230)는 수신된 초음파를 초음파채널-어플리케이션DB(161)에 저장된 초음파채널의 초음파와 비교하여 일치되는 초음파를 갖는 초음파채널을 확인한다(단계 S03). When the ultrasonic wave is received at the user's terminal 200, the ultrasonic channel checking unit 230 compares the received ultrasonic wave with the ultrasonic wave of the ultrasonic channel stored in the ultrasonic channel-application DB 161 to identify an ultrasonic channel having a matching ultrasonic wave. (Step S03).
그리고, 확인결과 수신된 초음파에 대응되는 초음파채널이 확인되면 초음파채널에 설정된 어플리케이션을 실행시킨다(단계 S04).When the ultrasound channel corresponding to the received ultrasound is confirmed as a result of the checking, the application set in the ultrasound channel is executed (step S04).
한편, 어플리케이션이 실행되면 단말기(200)의 화면에 활성화된 어플리케이션이 표시되고(단계 S05), 단말기(200) 사용자가 어플리케이션의 활성화를 인지할 수 있도록 진동 또는 알람이 작동하게 된다(단계 S06).Meanwhile, when the application is executed, the activated application is displayed on the screen of the terminal 200 (step S05), and the vibration or alarm is activated so that the user of the terminal 200 can recognize the activation of the application (step S06).
이에 따라 단말기(200)가 슬리핑 상태이더라도 어플리케이션이 활성화되면서 사용자가 확인할 수 있거나 또는 활성화된 어플리케이션에 의해서 각종 정보를 수신받을 수 있다. 예를 들면, 스마트폰 등의 단말기를 소지한 채로 커피숍에 입장하면 슬리핑상태의 단말기에서 초음파를 수신하면 쿠폰 어플리케이션이 실행되어 사용자가 사용가능한 쿠폰이 존재하면 이를 사용할 수 있게 된다. 또한, 각종 스포츠 경기장에서 초음파를 수신하면 스포츠 어플리케이션이 실행되어 실시간 경기정보 및 선수들의 자세한 정보를 확인할 수 있다. 그리고, 영화관에서 영화의 상영전에 초음파를 수신하면 영화 어플리케이션이 실행되어 "매너모드로 바꿔주세요"라는 메시지가 표시될 수 있다.Accordingly, even when the terminal 200 is in the sleeping state, the user may check the user while the application is activated or may receive various information by the activated application. For example, when entering a coffee shop with a terminal such as a smartphone, when an ultrasound is received from a terminal in a sleeping state, a coupon application is executed and the user can use the coupon if there is a coupon available. In addition, when receiving ultrasonic waves in various sports venues, a sports application may be executed to check real-time game information and detailed information of players. In addition, when an ultrasound is received before the movie is screened at the movie theater, a movie application may be executed to display a message, "Please change to silent mode."
