Together, a 'cancel' button 570 for canceling destination setting may be further provided.

With continued reference to FIGS. 2 and 3 , in the first embodiment of the destination location input method of the present disclosure, the destination application module 240 implemented by the user terminal 200 provides a user interface for inputting the destination. By transmitting destination information (eg, "Songpa-gu Office") entered through the user terminal 200 to another computing device, for example, the server 320, the computing device 320 is specified by the access location. A step of assisting to provide the destination information to the navigator 360 of the vehicle (eg, vehicle “12 or 3456”) (applying the destination step; S400) is further included.

This step (S400) may be triggered, for example, by the user manipulating, eg, pressing, the

button

550 or 560 provided to the user interface of the user terminal 200 .

For example, when the corresponding user interface is provided on the web, operation of the

button

550 or 560 may result in a GET or POST request over HTTP that transfers information from the user terminal 200 to the server 320. However, it is well known to those skilled in the art that when a corresponding user interface is provided as an app, various transmission protocols or transmission methods may be used other than a method using HTTP for information transmission.

Specifically, in step (S400), the destination application module 240 of the user terminal 200 transmits the destination information to the server 320 (S420), thereby causing the server 320 to specify the destination information. It may be provided to the vehicle navigator 360 (S460).

As an alternative, in step S400, the destination application module 240 of the user terminal 200 transmits the destination information to the server 320 (S420), thereby causing the server 320 to transfer the destination information to the vehicle. The destination information may be transmitted to the vehicle terminal 340 linked to the navigator 360 (S440), and the destination information may be provided to the navigator 360 of the vehicle by the vehicle terminal 340 (S460).

6 is a diagram exemplarily illustrating contents displayed on a vehicle navigator 360 according to an embodiment of a destination location input method of the present disclosure.

As described above, according to the destination location input method of the present disclosure, even when a passenger wanders and boards a vehicle such as a taxi without calling a driver, the passenger accurately indicates his or her destination to the driver without the hassle of explaining the destination in words to the driver. or the navigator, it has the effect of improving the convenience of passengers and drivers.

A second embodiment of the destination location input method of the present disclosure that exhibits the same effect as described above is as follows.

7 is a flowchart illustrating another embodiment of a method for inputting a destination location according to the present disclosure, and FIGS. 8A and 8B are diagrams for explaining the embodiment of FIG. 7 .

7 and 3, in the second embodiment of the destination location input method of the present disclosure, first, the user interface providing module 230 for destination input implemented by the user terminal provides a user interface for destination input. A step of providing a user interface for inputting the destination by displaying a web page including the web page or driving an app for inputting the destination that displays the user interface for inputting the destination (S700; providing a user interface for inputting the destination).

In step S700, the user uses an app or web page that provides a user interface for inputting a destination as described in relation to the first embodiment to call a vehicle without intending to board the loitering vehicle from the beginning. can be entered.

According to the prior art, during a vehicle call, a user interface 800a indicating that a vehicle call is in progress may be provided as illustrated in FIG. ) may also be provided. In contrast, according to the second embodiment of the destination location input method of the present disclosure, in the case of boarding a loitering vehicle first instead of the called vehicle, the cancel button 810 simply enables cancellation as in the prior art, as well as boarding the loitering vehicle. A button 820 for selecting "Yes" may be further provided, which is to enable the destination information already input for vehicle call to be used for the loitering vehicle.

7 and 3, first of all, in the second embodiment of the destination location input method of the present disclosure, the recognition code acquisition module 210 implemented by the user terminal 200, the user terminal ( Obtaining a code for recognition from a photographing device (eg, camera) 205a included in 200, a photographing device 205b linked to the user terminal 200, or a photographing device 205c included in another device (recognition) Acquiring a code for recognition; S800), and acquiring identification information from the code for recognition by the code conversion module 220 for recognition implemented by the user terminal 200 (code conversion step for recognition; S900). include The identification code is printed or attached in the vehicle, and includes identification information of at least one of the vehicle driver and the vehicle or information processed therefrom, as described above with respect to the first embodiment.

For example, step S800 may be triggered by the user inputting a destination and boarding the loitering vehicle in step S700, and then pressing a button 820 selecting that the loitering vehicle is boarded as in the example of FIG. 8B. . The recognition code attached to the loitering vehicle and the process of obtaining (S800) and recognizing it (S900) are performed by a dedicated vehicle transportation service app for performing the destination location input method of the present disclosure. Since it has been described above with reference to FIGS. 4a and 4b, redundant description will be omitted.

Then, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 3 , according to the second embodiment of the destination location input method of the present disclosure, the destination application module 240 implemented by the user terminal 200, the user terminal 200 By transmitting to another computing device, e.g., server 320 that works with the destination, the computing device 320 transmits the information to the navigator 360 of the vehicle specified by the identification information (e.g., “12 or 3456” vehicle). A step of assisting to provide information (applying the destination step; S1000) is further included.

Since the destination information (e.g., "Songpa-gu Office") input through the destination input user interface has already been provided to the server 320 in the destination input user interface providing step (S700), the destination in step S1000.
