  The present invention provides a facility that distributes facility information of the facility to a vehicle that satisfies a pre-specified condition of a vehicle speed for a vehicle that moves in the vicinity of the facility based on traveling information of the vehicle such as an automobile. The present invention relates to an information distribution apparatus and a facility information distribution method.

  2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a technique for notifying a user of facility information in order to promote use of various facilities such as restaurants is known. An example of such a technique is disclosed in Patent Document 1. According to the technique disclosed in Patent Literature 1, facility information can be distributed for a moving body that moves in the vicinity of the facility. Here, as will be described later, the moving body means, for example, a combination of an in-vehicle navigation device and a vehicle, a combination of a portable terminal and a vehicle, or the like. The vehicle is realized by, for example, a four-wheeled vehicle or a motorcycle.

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 08-076706

If the technique disclosed in Patent Document 1 is used, facility information for urging the use of the facility to a moving body that moves in the vicinity of the facility can be provided as described above.
In this case, the user is suggested to stop at the facility that was not originally intended, but the moving body is moving at a smooth speed, or in order to stop at the facility, the traveling direction must be changed. In some cases, it may be necessary to make significant changes, and such a proposal may be bothersome as unnecessary information for the user.
On the other hand, for example, if the facility information is distributed when the moving speed is not smooth or the user can afford to confirm the information to be distributed, for example, once stopped, if the user distributes the facility information based on the facility information It is estimated that the probability of stopping at the facility is high. In this case, it can be said that the cost effectiveness of the advertising fee is high for the advertiser who requested distribution of the facility information.
Furthermore, if the position of the proposed facility is within a certain range of the moving direction of the moving body when the moving speed is not smooth or is temporarily stopped, the proposed facility without greatly changing the moving direction Therefore, it is estimated that the probability of the user coming to the facility further increases.
However, in the past, simply providing facility information for encouraging the use of the facility to mobile bodies moving in the vicinity of the facility has been implemented, and for advertisers requesting distribution of facility information, There was a problem with the cost effectiveness of ad delivery.

  The present invention has been made in view of such a problem, and the present invention relates to a moving body that moves in the vicinity of a facility, and the moving speed of the moving body is not smooth or is temporarily stopped or the like. An object of the present invention is to provide a facility information distribution apparatus and a facility information distribution method that can distribute facility information when the time is late.

  (1) The facility information distribution device (for example, “facility information distribution server system 30” described later) of the present invention receives position information of one or more moving bodies (for example, “vehicle 50” described later). The receiving unit (for example, “position information receiving unit 311” described later) and the moving speed of the moving body are received for each moving body, or the moving speed of the moving body is received by the position information receiving unit. A moving speed calculating unit (for example, “moving speed calculating unit 312” described later) that calculates the moving speed of the moving object from the transition of the position information of the moving object, facility information relating to one or more facilities, A storage unit (for example, “storage unit 32” to be described later) that stores the map information including the facility position; and a predetermined range in which the position of the moving body is preset from the position of the facility (for example, “second” to be described later) 1 ”within a predetermined range”) And when the moving speed of the moving body calculated by the moving speed calculating unit is equal to or lower than a predetermined speed set in advance (for example, “first speed threshold” described later), A facility information distribution setting unit (for example, “facility information distribution setting unit 313” described later) that sets a mobile body as a distribution destination of facility information of the facility, and the facility information is set as a distribution destination by the facility information distribution setting unit. A facility information distribution unit (for example, “facility information distribution unit 314” described later) that distributes to the mobile body.

  According to the above (1), the facility information is distributed when the moving speed of the moving body is not smooth, or when there is room for the user of the moving body to recognize the information due to a temporary stop or the like. Based on the facility information, the probability of going to the facility can be further increased.

  (2) The facility information distribution setting unit (for example, “facility information distribution setting unit 313” described later) described in (1) is further configured so that the facility is located from the position of the mobile body (for example, “vehicle 50” described later). The mobile object is located on a predetermined angle (for example, “first angle threshold” described later) set in advance with respect to the traveling direction of the mobile object, or is positioned within the predetermined angle. You may make it set as a delivery destination of the facility information of the said facility.

  According to (2) above, if the proposed facility is within a certain angular range of the traveling direction when the moving speed of the moving body is not smooth or is temporarily stopped, the user increases the traveling direction of the moving body. Since it becomes possible to go to the proposed facility without change, the probability that the user goes to the facility can be further increased.

  (3) The moving speed calculation unit (for example, “movement speed calculation unit 312” described later) of the facility information distribution apparatus (for example, “facility information distribution server system 30” described later) described in (1) or (2). Is a predetermined value set in advance from the location of the facility based on the movement speed received from a plurality of moving bodies (for example, “vehicle 50” described later) and / or the transition of the positional information of the plurality of moving bodies. An average moving speed for each point in the range is calculated, the calculated average moving speed for each point is stored, and the predetermined speed (for example, “first speed threshold” described later) is set to the point. It may be set every time, and may be set to be equal to or less than the average moving speed calculated for each point.

  According to the above (3), when the moving speed of the moving body is slower than the past average moving speed, it can be estimated that there is a traffic jam, and the probability that the user goes to the facility can be further increased.

(4) The facility information distribution method of the present invention includes a storage unit (for example, “storage unit 32” described later) that stores facility information related to one or more facilities and map information including the facility position of the facility. A facility information distribution method performed by one or more computers having a position information receiving step of receiving position information of one or more mobile objects (for example, “vehicle 50” described later), and for each of the mobile objects, A moving speed calculating step of receiving the moving speed of the moving body or calculating the moving speed of the moving body from the transition of the position information of the moving body received in the position information receiving step.

A facility in which the moving body is set as a distribution destination of facility information of the facility when the moving speed is equal to or lower than a predetermined speed (for example, “first speed threshold value” described later). An information distribution setting step; and a facility information distribution step of distributing the facility information to the mobile body set as a distribution destination in the facility information distribution setting step.
According to the method (4), the same effect as that of the facility information distribution apparatus (1) can be obtained.

  According to the present invention, for a moving body that moves in the vicinity of a facility, the facility information is distributed when the moving speed of the moving body is not smooth, or when the moving speed becomes slow due to a temporary stop or the like. It is possible to provide a facility information distribution apparatus and a facility information distribution method that can be performed.

The in-vehicle navigation device 10 has a function of positioning position information of the in-vehicle navigation device 10 (that is, position information of the vehicle 50a). The position information measured by the in-vehicle navigation device 10 is appropriately transmitted to the facility information distribution server system 30. The in-vehicle navigation device 10 has a function of displaying facility information of a facility distributed using the facility information distribution system 1 and route guidance (car navigation) to a user who has boarded the vehicle 50a. The in-vehicle navigation device 10 displays facility information and provides route guidance from the current position to the destination.
Hereinafter, the “facility” in the present embodiment means a distribution target facility (also referred to as a “distribution facility”) for distributing facility information, for example, by an advertiser using the facility information distribution system 1 unless otherwise specified. And The facility information includes information indicating the details of the facility, such as the location of the facility and what kind of facility it is. Further, for example, the facility information may further include advertisement information such as coupon information that can be used in the facility.
The in-vehicle navigation device 10 can be realized by a car navigation device installed in a vehicle 50a that is a moving body, or a PND (Portable Navigation Device) that is simply installed and portable in the vehicle 50a that is a moving body.

The portable terminal 20 is a portable terminal used by a user who gets on the vehicle 50b. The portable terminal 20 has a function of positioning the position information of the portable terminal 20 (that is, the position information of the vehicle 50b), like the vehicle-mounted navigation device 10 described above. The position information measured by the mobile terminal 20 is appropriately transmitted to the facility information distribution server system 30 in the same manner as the position information measured by the in-vehicle navigation device 10.
The mobile terminal 20 can be realized by a smartphone, a mobile phone, a tablet terminal, a notebook computer, or other portable electronic devices.

The facility information distribution server system 30 has a predetermined speed (hereinafter also referred to as a “first speed threshold”) in which the moving speed of the vehicle 50 is preset among the vehicles 50 that move in the vicinity of the facility, as a process unique to the present embodiment. Is the device that sets the vehicle 50 as the distribution destination of the facility information of the facility and distributes the facility information to the vehicle 50 when it is equal to or less than the first speed threshold.

<Functional blocks included in the in-vehicle navigation device 10>
The functional blocks provided in the in-vehicle navigation device 10 will be described with reference to the block diagram of FIG.
Here, the in-vehicle navigation device 10 is supplied with power from the vehicle 50a, and automatically starts when the ignition switch of the vehicle 50a is turned on (engine is started) by a user who gets on the vehicle 50a. The in-vehicle navigation device 10 operates until the user who gets on the vehicle 50a turns off the ignition switch of the vehicle 50a (stops the engine).

  As shown in FIG. 2, the in-vehicle navigation device 10 includes a control unit 11, a storage unit 12, a communication unit 13, a sensor unit 14, a display unit 15, and an input unit 16.

  The control unit 11 includes an arithmetic processing device such as a microprocessor and controls each unit constituting the unit 10. Details of the control unit 11 will be described later.

  The storage unit 12 is composed of a semiconductor memory or the like, and a program for displaying control information called firmware or an operating system, or facility information received from the facility information distribution server system 30 via the display unit 15 or the like. Each program such as a program for performing route guidance processing for moving to the facility, a program for transmitting position information of the vehicle 50a to the facility information distribution server system 30, and other information such as map information Various information is stored. In the figure, map information 121, position information 122, and identification information 123, which are information provided to the facility information distribution server system 30, are illustrated as information stored in the storage unit 12.

  The map information 121 includes information about features such as roads and facilities, information such as road information, facility position information, and parking lot information. In addition, the map information 121 includes map data for display for displaying backgrounds such as roads and road maps, position information of nodes (eg, road intersections, inflection points, end points, etc.) and their type information, Road network data including link cost data regarding link position information and its type information, which is a route connecting nodes, cost information (for example, distance, required time, etc.) of all links, and the like are included. In addition, the information regarding the facility contained in the map information 121 is not intended for only the distribution target facility, but for a general facility displayed in the map information. Hereinafter, it is also referred to as “general facility” in order to distinguish it from the distribution target facility (facility). The set of distribution target facilities (facility) is included in the set of general facilities.

As road information, so-called road map information such as road types and traffic lights is stored.
As facility location information, location information of each general facility is stored as latitude and longitude information. The facility location information may include general facility identification information (facility ID), name, facility type (and / or genre), telephone number, address, and the like.
As the parking lot information, the location information of the parking lot is stored as latitude and longitude information. When the parking lot is a parking lot of each general facility, the general facility and the parking lot are linked and stored.

  The position information 122 is position information of the in-vehicle navigation device 10 (that is, position information of the vehicle 50a) measured by the sensor unit 14 described later. It is assumed that the position information 122 includes not only information indicating the position that has been measured but also a positioning time that is a time at which the positioning is performed.

  The identification information 123 is information for identifying the in-vehicle navigation device 10 and also information for identifying the vehicle 50a (that is, moving body identification information for identifying the moving body). As the identification information 123, for example, a serial number uniquely assigned to the in-vehicle navigation device 10 can be used. In addition, the telephone number assigned to the SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) inserted in the communication unit 13 in order for the communication unit 13 to connect to the communication network 60 such as a mobile phone network is used as the identification information 123. Can be used as In addition, a VIN (vehicle identification number) or a license plate number uniquely assigned to the vehicle 50 a can be used as the identification information 123.

  About each information stored in these memory | storage parts 12, it is good also as a structure beforehand memorize | stored in the memory | storage part 12, the facility information delivery server system 30 connected to the communication network 60, and another server apparatus (illustration is shown). Etc.) may be appropriately downloaded as necessary. Furthermore, it may be appropriately modified according to user input or the like.

  The communication unit 13 includes a DSP (Digital Signal Processor) or the like, and is compliant with standards such as 3G (3rd Generation), LTE (Long Term Evolution), and Wi-Fi (registered trademark) via the communication network 60. Wireless communication with the device (for example, the facility information distribution server system 30). The communication unit 13 is used, for example, for the position information transmission unit 112 described later to transmit the position information 122 and the identification information 123 stored in the storage unit 12 to the facility information distribution server system 30. However, data transmitted and received between the communication unit 13 and other devices is not particularly limited, and information other than the position information 122 and the identification information 123 may be transmitted and received.

The sensor unit 14 includes, for example, a GPS (Global Positioning System) sensor, a gyro sensor, an acceleration sensor, and the like. The sensor unit 14 has a function as position detecting means for detecting position information, receives a GPS satellite signal by a GPS sensor, and measures position information (latitude and longitude) of the in-vehicle navigation device 10. Positioning by the sensor unit 14 is performed at a predetermined time interval (for example, every 3 seconds) as described above. The measured position information is stored in the storage unit 12 as position information 122. Note that the position information may include time information obtained by positioning the position information. By doing so, it becomes possible to calculate when and where the vehicle 50a was located.
Note that the sensor unit 14 can further increase the positioning accuracy of the position information of the in-vehicle navigation device 10 based on the angular velocity measured by the gyro sensor or the acceleration sensor or the acceleration.
In addition, when the GPS communication is difficult or impossible, the sensor unit 14 uses AGPS (Assisted Global Positioning System) communication, and the position information of the in-vehicle navigation device 10 based on the base station information acquired from the communication unit 13. Can also be calculated.

  The display unit 15 is configured by a display device such as a liquid crystal display or an organic electroluminescence panel. The display unit 15 displays an image in response to an instruction from the control unit 11. Examples of information displayed by the display unit 15 include the current position of the in-vehicle navigation device 10, map information around the current position of the in-vehicle navigation device 10 read from the map information 121, a destination set by the user, and other information. Examples include meeting information notified from the in-vehicle navigation device 10, facility information provided from the facility information distribution server system 30, route information having the facility information as a destination, various user interfaces, and the like.

  The input unit 16 includes a physical switch called a numeric keypad, an input device (not shown) such as a touch panel provided on the display surface of the display unit 15, and the like. By outputting a signal based on an operation input from the input unit 16, for example, a numeric keypad pressed by the user or a touch on the touch panel, to the control unit 11, an operation such as a selection operation by the user or a map enlargement / reduction can be realized. it can.

In addition, although not shown, the in-vehicle navigation device 10 may include a speaker, a microphone, and the like. The speaker outputs a sound to the driver, and the microphone collects a sound emitted by the driver.
By doing so, it is also possible to output information from a speaker by voice, or to input various selections and instructions by a driver who are voice-input via a microphone to the control unit 11 by voice recognition technology.

  Next, details of the control unit 11 will be described. The control unit 11 includes a microprocessor having a central processing unit (CPU), a random access memory (RAM), a read only memory (ROM), and an input / output (I / O). The CPU executes each program read from the ROM or the storage unit 12, reads information from the RAM, ROM, and the storage unit 12 at the time of execution, and writes information to the RAM and the storage unit 12. It exchanges signals with the communication unit 13, the sensor unit 14, the display unit 15, and the input unit 16. In this way, the processing in this embodiment is realized by the cooperation of hardware and software (program).

  The control unit 11 includes a route guide unit 111, a location information transmission unit 112, and a facility information acquisition unit 113 as functional blocks.

The route guidance unit 111 is a part that performs route guidance processing to a destination such as a general facility that is input or selected by the user.
The route guidance process to the destination is equivalent to the route guidance process in a general car navigation system. That is, the route guidance unit 111 generates a map to the destination based on the map information 121 stored in the storage unit 12, and the current position of the in-vehicle navigation device 10 measured by the sensor unit 14 on the map. Route guidance can be performed by overlapping the position of the destination and the route information to the destination and displaying them on the display unit 15.
Note that the route guidance unit 111 can use route information for a facility related to the facility information provided from the facility information distribution server system 30 as route information for route guidance.

  Further, in this case, route guidance sound may be output from a speaker (not shown). Alternatively, information on road congestion, weather information, and the like may be acquired through communication by the communication unit 13, and the acquired information may be used for route guidance processing. For example, a road situation (for example, a traffic jam situation) acquired from VICS (registered trademark) (Vehicle Information Communication System) or the like via the communication unit 13 may be used for the route guidance process. Note that the route guidance processing to the destination is well known to those skilled in the art, and thus further detailed description is omitted.

The position information transmission unit 112 is a part that transmits the position information 122 and the identification information 123 stored in the storage unit 12 to the facility information distribution server system 30 by wireless communication using the communication unit 13.
The position information transmission unit 112 transmits the position information 122 and the identification information 123 to the facility information distribution server system 30 by turning on the ignition switch of the vehicle 50a (starting the engine) by the user who gets on the vehicle 50a. This is periodically performed from the time when 10 is automatically activated until the ignition switch of the vehicle 50a is turned off (engine is stopped). For example, transmission is performed in real time whenever the sensor unit 14 performs positioning at a predetermined time interval (for example, every several seconds).

Further, instead of transmitting to the facility information distribution server system 30 in real time, a plurality of them are collected at once (for example, the location information 122 updated at intervals of several seconds within a few minutes and the identification information 123 are collected at a time). You may make it do. That is, so-called burst transmission may be performed. The length of the predetermined time interval and whether to transmit in real time or burst transmission can be arbitrarily set according to the environment to which the present embodiment is applied.
In this way, by performing real-time transmission or burst transmission, the position information transmitting unit 112 obtains the position information 122 for identifying the moving route of the vehicle 50a measured by the sensor unit 14 and the identification information 123 as the facility. It transmits to the information distribution server system 30.

In this case, the facility information is distributed with the position specified by the position information 122 measured immediately after the ignition switch is turned on (engine is started) and the in-vehicle navigation device 10 is automatically started as the first vehicle position, that is, the starting position. It can be transmitted to the server system 30. Furthermore, the position specified by the position information 122 measured immediately before the ignition switch is turned off (engine stop) can be transmitted to the facility information distribution server system 30 as the final vehicle position, that is, the parking position.
In this case, the facility information distribution server system 30 is added to the position information 122 after adding start information indicating the position information 122 indicating the departure position and stop information indicating the position information 122 indicating the parking position. You may make it transmit to. For example, it may be transmitted with the flag indicating that it is start information set to 1, or with the flag indicating that it is stop information set to 1. For the position information 122 (ie, parking position) measured immediately before the ignition switch is turned off (engine stopped), when the ignition switch is turned on (engine is started) and the vehicle-mounted navigation device 10 is started again. May be sent to.

  Even when burst transmission is performed, if the route guide unit 111 determines that the vehicle 50a has arrived at a destination (for example, a general facility), the position information transmission unit 112 performs real-time transmission. It is better to switch to perform transmission. In this way, after arrival at a certain facility, before the position information 122 of the parking position is transmitted, the ignition switch is turned off (engine stopped), and the position information 122 of the destination such as a general facility is stored in the facility. It is possible to prevent a situation where the information is not transmitted to the information distribution server system 30.

  Note that the position information transmission unit 112 may transmit the moving speed of the vehicle 50a, the traveling direction of the vehicle 50a, and the like to the facility information distribution server system 30. Further, as will be described later, the facility information distribution server system 30 calculates the moving speed of the vehicle 50a, the traveling direction of the vehicle 50a, and the like based on position information, time information, and the like periodically transmitted from the vehicle 50. You can also.

The facility information acquisition unit 113 receives, for example, facility information of a facility located near the current traveling position of the vehicle 50a from the facility information distribution server system 30 and acquires the facility information. And the facility information acquisition part 113 can provide a user with the facility information acquired from the facility information delivery server system 30, for example to the display part 15 by providing.
Specifically, in the facility information acquisition unit 113, when the user drives the vehicle 50a and moves in the vicinity of the distribution target facility, the moving speed of the vehicle 50a is equal to a preset predetermined speed (first speed threshold). Or when it falls below the first speed threshold, the facility information of the facility can be received and acquired from the facility information distribution server system 30.

Note that the user of the vehicle 50a may explicitly request whether or not the facility information is distributed to the facility information distribution server system 30. In this case, the facility information acquisition unit 113 may display, for example, a “facility information distribution start ON” button on the display unit 15 as illustrated in FIG. 3A. By doing so, when the facility information distribution start is turned on by a touch operation of the button by the user, the facility information acquisition unit 113 sends an information distribution start request via the communication unit 13 to the facility information distribution server. It can be configured to transmit to the system 30.
By doing so, the facility information acquisition unit 113 can receive and acquire the facility information distributed from the facility information distribution server system 30. Note that the facility information acquisition unit 113 may receive and acquire facility information from the facility information distribution server system 30 by turning on the default of facility information distribution start.

Based on the facility information acquired from the facility information distribution server system 30, the facility information acquisition unit 113, for example, on the display unit 15 of the facility distributed on the map around the current position of the vehicle 50a as shown in FIG. 3B. The position can be displayed. Further, the facility information acquisition unit 113 can display the facility information on the display unit 15 as shown in FIG. 3C. In addition, when there are a plurality of facilities in the vicinity of the vehicle 50a, the facility that the user wants to visit may be selected by displaying a plurality of facility information on the display unit 15 in a scrollable manner.
The configuration of the in-vehicle navigation device 10 has been described above.

<Functional blocks provided in the mobile terminal 20>
Next, functional blocks provided in the mobile terminal 20 will be described with reference to the block diagram of FIG.
Here, the on-vehicle navigation device 10 described above receives power supply from the vehicle 50a, but the mobile terminal 20 receives power supply from a battery (not shown) provided in the mobile terminal 20 itself. However, the mobile terminal 20 may be supplied with power from a cigar socket or the like of the vehicle 50b in order to charge the battery.

As shown in FIG. 4, the mobile terminal 20 includes a control unit 21, a storage unit 22, a communication unit 23, a sensor unit 24, a display unit 25, an input unit 26, and a short-range communication unit 27. Consists of.

Have. That is, the term “vehicle terminal 20” in the description of the in-vehicle navigation device 10 is replaced with “portable terminal 20”, and the term “vehicle 50a” in the description of the in-vehicle navigation device 10 is “vehicle 50b”. By substituting, it becomes description of each functional block of the portable terminal 20, Therefore The duplicate description is abbreviate | omitted.

On the other hand, since the mobile terminal 20 is different from the vehicle-mounted navigation device 10 in that it includes the short-range communication unit 27, the difference will be described below.
The near field communication unit 27 performs non-contact near field communication based on standards such as NFC (Near Field Communication) and Bluetooth (registered trademark), or wired near field communication via a USB (Universal Serial Bus) cable or the like. It is a part for.
On the other hand, the vehicle 50 b includes a short-range communication unit for communicating with the short-range communication unit 27. For example, the ECU (Electronic Control Unit) of the vehicle 50b includes a short-range communication unit.
And the case where the portable terminal 20 can communicate with ECU by near field communication is a case where the portable terminal 20 exists in the vehicle 50b. In this case, the position information measured by the sensor unit 24 of the mobile terminal 20 corresponds to the position information of the vehicle 50b.

  Therefore, the mobile terminal 20 activates the position information transmission unit 212 while it can perform near field communication with the ECU via the near field communication unit 27. Then, the activated position information transmission unit 212 is similar to the position information transmission unit 112 of the in-vehicle navigation device 10, and the position information 222 for identifying the movement route of the vehicle 50 b measured by the sensor unit 24 and the identification information 223. Is transmitted to the facility information distribution server system 30. Here, the identification information 223 is information for identifying the mobile terminal 20 and also information for identifying the vehicle 50b (that is, mobile body identification information for identifying the mobile body). As the identification information 223, similarly to the case of the in-vehicle navigation device 10, a uniquely assigned production number or the like can be used. In addition, the telephone number assigned to the SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) inserted in the communication unit 23 so that the communication unit 23 is connected to the communication network 60 which is a network such as a cellular phone network is used as the identification information 223. Can be used as In addition, a VIN (vehicle identification number) uniquely assigned to the vehicle 50b or a number of a license plate can be used as the identification information 223.

  For example, when the user has the mobile terminal 20 and gets on the vehicle 50b and turns on the start switch of the vehicle 50b such as an ignition switch, the vehicle 50b and the mobile terminal 20 are connected (paired), and the mobile terminal 20 Positioned position information 222 and identification information 223 are transmitted from the portable terminal 20 to the facility information distribution server system 30. In this case, the position specified by the position information 122 measured immediately after the pairing of the vehicle 50b and the portable terminal 20 can be transmitted to the facility information distribution server system 30 as the first vehicle position, that is, the departure position.

Further, when the start switch of the vehicle 50b such as the ignition switch is turned off, the pairing between the vehicle 50b and the portable terminal 20 is released. In this case, the position specified by the position information 122 measured immediately before being released can be transmitted to the facility information distribution server system 30 as the final vehicle position, that is, the parking position.
In this case, transmission may be performed in real time, burst transmission may be performed, burst transmission may be switched to real-time transmission when it is determined that the vehicle has arrived at the parking position, departure position Or the point which may add the starting information and stop information which show that it is a parking position, and the point which may transmit a parking position at the time of restart are the same as that of the position information transmission part 112.

In addition, when the vehicle 50b has a function of positioning position information, the position information measured by the vehicle 50b is not the position information measured by the sensor unit 24 but the position information 122 is used as the position information 122 in the facility information distribution server system 30. You may make it transmit. In this case, the sensor unit 24 may be omitted from the mobile terminal 20.
The configuration of the mobile terminal 20 has been described above.

  In the facility information area 323 of the storage unit 32, facility information related to the distribution target facility is recorded. More specifically, the facility information area 323 is specified by, for example, identification information (facility ID), facility name, category type (facility type), telephone number, address, business hours, latitude / longitude, and the like of the distribution target facility. Location information, menus provided if the distribution target facility is a restaurant, information on product services provided by the distribution target facility, coupons and special points that are discount information on products and services provided by the distribution target facility A facility information database 3231 in which facility information of distribution target facilities such as privilege information including granting is stored is included. In addition, identification information as a general facility can be applied to the identification information (facility ID) of the distribution target facility.

  The facility ID is unique identification information assigned to each facility. The facility ID is preferably assigned for each facility type. Here, examples of the facility type include store types such as a convenience store, a coffee shop, a restaurant, a supermarket, and a sports gym. Furthermore, it is preferable that the facility ID is further hierarchized by genre in each facility type and is given an ID. For example, by category, in the case of restaurants, for example, types such as Japanese food, Western food, Chinese, French, Italian, and the like are listed.

The facility information stores information on facilities such as business hours, contact phone numbers, and menus provided for restaurants.
In the facility information area 323, the status of the facility to be distributed (for example, reservation information indicating the reservation status to the facility for each time zone of the facility and each user, availability status, etc.), the customer acquisition results calculated for each facility Information (for example, customer collection information or coupon usage information guided to the facility by distribution information) may be stored. The facility information area 323 may store facility evaluation information given to each facility corresponding to the facility stored in the facility information area 323.

In the connection history information area 324 of the storage unit 32, mobile body position information, time information, and the like periodically transmitted from the mobile body are stored in a connection history record 3241 managed for each mobile body ID. The moving body position information stores information on the current position that is sequentially received from the moving body. The reception may be received once every few seconds, or may be stored in time series on the mobile unit side and received together at a certain time or when the application is started on the mobile unit side. Good. Further, the moving speed of the vehicle 50, the traveling direction of the vehicle 50, and the like may be received from the moving body and stored in the connection history record 3241 managed for each moving body ID.
The facility information distribution server system 30 may calculate the moving speed of the vehicle 50 and the traveling direction of the vehicle 50 based on position information, time information, and the like periodically transmitted from the vehicle 50.
In this way, for each moving object, the movement history ID, departure time, departure position (or departure facility ID), movement position, time at the movement position, movement speed at the movement position, traveling direction of the vehicle 50 at the movement position, arrival Information such as time and arrival position (or arrival facility ID) is stored in association with each other. Here, the movement history ID is, for example, information for identifying history information from when the vehicle 50 is turned on until when the ignition is turned off.
The departure facility ID corresponding to the departure position and the arrival facility ID corresponding to the arrival position are determined based on the map information stored in the map information area 322 of the storage unit 32, the general facility position information, and the like. The departure facility ID and the arrival facility ID can be specified by comparing the arrival position with the general facility information included in the map information.

The communication unit 33 has a DSP (Digital Signal Processor) or the like, and is compliant with a standard such as 3G (3rd Generation) LTE (Long Term Evolution) or Wi-Fi (registered trademark) via the communication network 60. Wireless communication with other devices via 60 is realized. For example, the communication unit 33 is used to receive position information, identification information, and the like transmitted from each of the in-vehicle navigation device 10 and the mobile terminal 20. In addition, the communication unit 33 is used, for example, to transmit facility information to the in-vehicle navigation device 10 and the mobile terminal 20.
However, data transmitted and received between the communication unit 33 and these devices is not particularly limited, and information other than these information may be transmitted and received.

  The display unit 34 is configured by a display device such as a liquid crystal display or an organic electroluminescence panel. The display unit 34 displays an image in response to an instruction from the control unit 31. Examples of the information displayed by the display unit 34 include facility information read from the facility information database 3231 and provided to the in-vehicle navigation device 10 and the mobile terminal 20, map information read from the map information area 322, Examples include state information of each mobile unit read from the connection history information area 324 and various user interfaces.

  The input unit 35 includes an input device (not shown) such as a keyboard and a mouse. Based on an operation input from the input unit 16, for example, it is possible to perform a correction process for facility information stored in the facility information database 3231 and a map information included in the map information area 322. These operations are performed, for example, by a business operator who manages the facility information distribution server system 30.

Next, details of the control unit 31 will be described. The control unit 31 includes a microprocessor having a central processing unit (CPU), a random access memory (RAM), a read only memory (ROM), and an input / output (I / O). The CPU executes each program read from the ROM or the storage unit 32, reads information from the RAM, ROM, and the storage unit 32 at the time of execution, and writes information to the RAM and the storage unit 32. Signals are exchanged with the communication unit 33, the display unit 34, and the input unit 35. In this way, the processing in this embodiment is realized by the cooperation of hardware and software (program).
In this way, the control unit 31 causes the facility information distribution server system 30 to function as predetermined means (hereinafter collectively referred to as “facility information distribution control unit”) by executing each program.
In addition, the control unit 31 causes the facility information distribution server system 30 to execute predetermined steps (hereinafter collectively referred to as “facility information distribution control step”) by executing each program.
Hereinafter, the function of the control unit 31 will be described from the viewpoint of the facility information distribution control unit. The explanation based on the viewpoint of the facility information distribution control step (method) can be explained by replacing “part” with “step”, and will be omitted.

  The control unit 31 includes a position information receiving unit 311, a moving speed calculation unit 312, a facility information distribution setting unit 313, and a facility information distribution unit 314 as functional blocks.

<Position information receiving unit 311>
The position information receiving unit 311 receives identification information, position information, time information, and the like of the vehicle 50 from each vehicle 50 via the communication unit 33. Further, the position information receiving unit 311 generates a connection history record 3241 to be managed for each mobile body ID in the connection history information area 324 based on the identification information, the position information, and the time information received from each vehicle 50. Create and update as appropriate. As described above, the position information receiving unit 311 may receive the position information, the moving speed, the traveling direction, and the like of the vehicle 50 from the vehicle 50 as well. Further, the position information receiving unit 311 calculates the current position information, moving speed, traveling direction, and the like of the vehicle 50 based on the moving body position information, time information, and the like that are periodically transmitted from the vehicle 50. Also good.
In this way, in the connection history record 3241, for each moving body ID, departure time, departure position (or departure facility ID), position information from departure to present, movement speed of the vehicle 50, progress of the vehicle 50 Information such as direction is stored and updated.

  The position information receiving unit 311 is based on the received position information, identification information, and the like from the start to the end of transmission of position information, identification information, etc. from any of the in-vehicle navigation device 10 and the portable terminal 20. The connection history record 3241 is updated by storing each piece of information described above.

<Movement speed calculation unit 312>
Next, the moving speed calculation unit 312 will be described. Hereinafter, as described above, “facility” means “distribution target facility” unless otherwise specified.
As described above, the moving speed calculation unit 312 refers to the connection history record 3241 managed for each moving body ID as described above, thereby determining the current position, moving speed, and moving direction of the vehicle 50. Can be calculated.
Note that the moving speed calculation unit 312 has a plurality of vehicles 50 at each point serving as a moving path based on the moving speeds received from the plurality of vehicles 50 and the transition of the positional information of the plurality of moving bodies in a predetermined period in the past. The average moving speed may be calculated, and the calculated average moving speed may be stored as the average moving speed at each point.
By doing so, as will be described next, the facility information distribution setting unit 313 determines a threshold for the moving speed for determining the moving speed of the vehicle 50 at each point (a “first speed threshold” described later). Can be set to be equal to or less than the average moving speed at each point.

<Facility information distribution setting unit 313>
Next, the facility information distribution setting unit 313 will be described. When the vehicle 50 travels in the vicinity of the facility, that is, the facility information distribution setting unit 313, that is, within a predetermined range in which the current traveling position of the vehicle 50 is preset from the facility position (hereinafter also referred to as “first predetermined range”). The moving speed of the vehicle 50 calculated by the moving speed calculation unit 312 is equal to a predetermined speed set in advance (hereinafter also referred to as “first speed threshold”), or the first speed threshold The vehicle 50 is set as a delivery destination of the facility information of the facility. Hereinafter, for the sake of simplicity, a condition in which the moving speed of the vehicle 50 is equal to a preset predetermined speed (“first speed threshold”) or lower than the first speed threshold is also referred to as a first condition.
Here, the first predetermined range may be a radius range of a predetermined distance N ₁ [km] centered on the facility position, for example. Further, instead of the radius, for example, a range in which the travel distance on the road from the facility is N ₁ [km] may be set as the first predetermined range. In addition, for example, the first predetermined range may be determined based on the required travel time to the facility position. The size of the first predetermined range can be set as appropriate. For example, the facility information distribution server system 30 may be used to set a first predetermined range suitable for the facility for each facility that distributes facility information.
Thus, the facility information distribution setting unit 313 sets the vehicle 50 as a distribution destination of the facility information of the facility when the moving speed of the vehicle 50 satisfies the first condition.
As a result, the facility information is distributed when the moving speed of the vehicle 50 is not smooth, or when there is room for the user of the vehicle 50 to recognize the information due to a temporary stop or the like. The probability of going to can be further increased.

  An example of the first speed threshold value in the first condition will be described. Based on the average moving speed of the plurality of vehicles 50 at each point on the moving route calculated by the moving speed calculation unit 312, the first speed threshold is equal to, for example, the average moving speed at each point or the average You may make it set so that a moving speed may be less. By doing so, when the moving speed of the vehicle is slower than the past average moving speed, it can be estimated, for example, as a traffic jam, and the probability that the user goes to the facility can be further increased.

In addition to the first condition, the facility information distribution setting unit 313 requires that the facility is located within a predetermined angle in the traveling direction from the current position of the vehicle 50 (hereinafter referred to as “first angle threshold”). You may make it do. Hereinafter, for simplicity, the condition where the facility is located within the first angle threshold in the traveling direction of the vehicle 50 is also referred to as a second condition.
As described above, the facility information distribution setting unit 313 sets the vehicle 50 to the facility facility when the moving speed of the vehicle 50 satisfies the first condition and the traveling direction of the vehicle 50 satisfies the second condition. You may make it set as a delivery destination of information.
By doing so, if the proposed facility is within a certain angular range of the traveling direction when the moving speed of the moving body is not smooth or is temporarily stopped, the user does not greatly change the traveling direction of the moving body. Therefore, the probability that the user will head for the facility can be further increased.

<Facility information distribution unit 314>
Next, the facility information distribution unit 314 will be described.
The facility information distribution unit 314 distributes the facility information to the mobile body set by the facility information distribution setting unit 313. Note that the facility information may be distributed to the mobile body in response to the mobile body being calculated by the facility information distribution setting unit 313 as the distribution timing.
The facility information distribution unit 314 is a case where the current position of the vehicle 50 is located in the vicinity of the facility in response to a facility information distribution request from the in-vehicle navigation device 10 and the portable terminal 20, for example. If the moving speed of the first condition satisfies the first condition, the facility information may be distributed to the mobile body in a preset time (for example, 30 minutes to 60 minutes).
Further, the facility information distribution unit 314 may distribute the facility information to the mobile body set by the facility information distribution setting unit 313 at a preset period (for example, every several seconds).
For example, the facility information distribution unit 314 is a case where the current position of the vehicle 50 is located in the vicinity of the facility in response to a facility information distribution request from the in-vehicle navigation device 10 and the portable terminal 20. When the speed satisfies the first condition and the traveling direction of the vehicle 50 satisfies the second condition, delivery is performed at a preset time interval (for example, 30 minutes to 60 minutes) and at a preset time interval (for example, several seconds). You may make it do.

  Next, facility information distribution by the facility information distribution server system 30 will be described with reference to FIGS. 6A and 6B. FIG. 6A shows the distribution of facility information, the position of the vehicle 50, the movement speed of the vehicle 50, and the vehicle 50 when the facility information is distributed when the movement speed of the vehicle 50 satisfies the first condition. It is the schematic which shows the relationship of facility information. 6B shows the position of the distribution target facility, the position of the vehicle 50, the moving speed of the vehicle 50 when the moving speed of the vehicle 50 satisfies the first condition and the traveling direction of the vehicle 50 satisfies the second condition. FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram illustrating a relationship between a traveling direction of a vehicle 50 and facility information distributed to the vehicle 50.

  First, referring to FIG. 6A, when the vehicle A is located within the first predetermined range of the facility X and the moving speed of the vehicle A is equal to or lower than the first speed threshold, the vehicle A is used as a distribution destination of the facility information of the facility X. Is set, and the facility information of the facility X is distributed.

  Next, referring to FIG. 6B, the vehicle A is located within the first predetermined range of the facility X, the moving speed of the vehicle A is equal to or less than the first speed threshold, and further within the first angle threshold in the traveling direction of the vehicle 50. When the facility X comes to be located, the vehicle A is set as a distribution destination of the facility information of the facility X, and the facility information of the facility X is distributed.

  In step S <b> 10, the facility information distribution server system 30 (position information receiving unit 311) receives the identification information and position information from the vehicle 50 and updates the connection history record 3241 of the vehicle 50.

  In step S11, the facility information distribution server system 30 (facility information distribution setting unit 313) determines whether or not the vehicle 50 is positioned in the vicinity of the facility (that is, positioned within the first predetermined range from the facility position). When the vehicle 50 is located in the vicinity of the facility (Yes), the process proceeds to step S12. When the vehicle 50 is not located near the facility (No), the process returns to step S10.

  In step S <b> 12, the facility information distribution server system 30 (movement speed calculation unit 312) calculates the movement speed of the vehicle 50.

  In step S13, the facility information distribution server system 30 (facility information distribution setting unit 313) determines whether or not the moving speed of the vehicle 50 satisfies the first condition. When the first condition is satisfied (Yes), the process proceeds to step S14. When the first condition is not satisfied (No), the process proceeds to step S10.

  In step S14, the facility information distribution server system 30 (facility information distribution setting unit 313) distributes the facility information of the facility when the vehicle 50 is not set as the distribution destination of the facility information of the facility. Shall be set. By doing so, the troublesomeness that the same facility information is distributed to the vehicle 50 can be avoided.

In step S <b> 15, the facility information distribution server system 30 (facility information distribution unit 314) distributes the facility information of the facility to the vehicle 50. Thereafter, the process proceeds to step S10.
As described above, the facility information distribution server system 30 sets the mobile body that is the distribution destination of the facility information based on the first condition relating to the moving speed of the mobile body, and the facility information for the mobile body Can be delivered.

Next, FIG. 8 shows an example of a flowchart in the case where the second condition is specified in addition to the first condition as the facility information distribution condition. Referring to FIG. 8, in step S <b> 13 of the flowchart shown in FIG. 8, “if the first condition is met (Yes), go to step S <b> 14” is changed to “if the first condition is met (Yes), go to step S <b> 131”. Step S131 shown below is inserted between Step S13 and Step S14.
In the following description, steps up to step S12 and steps after step S14 are the same as those in the above-described flowchart, and step S13 is the same as described above.

In step S131, the facility information distribution server system 30 (facility information distribution setting unit 313) determines whether or not the traveling direction of the vehicle 50 satisfies the second condition. When the second condition is satisfied (Yes), the process proceeds to step S14. When the second condition is not satisfied (No), the process proceeds to step S10.
As described above, when the moving speed of the vehicle 50 is not smooth or is temporarily stopped, if the proposed facility is within a predetermined angle range of the traveling direction, the user greatly changes the traveling direction of the vehicle 50. Therefore, it is possible to go to the proposed facility without making it possible to further increase the probability of the user going to the facility.
