Abstract

The present invention relates to a system and method for providing a walking path guidance service based on measurement of a motion of a user, and there is provided a device for providing a walking path guidance service, the device including: a sensor unit for measuring a motion and position information of a user; a reference information creation unit for calculating an average walking speed using the measured motion and position information of the user; and a walking path guidance unit for creating a walking path from a starting point to a destination and calculating a time of arrival at the destination of the walking path according to the average walking speed.

Claims

1. A device for providing a walking path guidance service, the device comprising:

a sensor unit for measuring a motion and position information of a user;

a reference information creation unit for calculating an average walking speed using the measured motion and position information of the user; and

a walking path guidance unit for creating a walking path from a starting point to a destination and calculating a time of arrival at the destination of the walking path according to the average walking speed.

2. The device according to claim 1, further comprising a personalized service unit for calculating, when a movement according to the walking path is sensed, a moving speed using the motion measured by the sensor unit and recommending a taxi call service if the calculated moving speed is lower than a preset threshold speed.

3. The device according to claim 2, wherein the sensor unit measures biometric information of the user, and if the calculated moving speed is lower than the preset threshold speed, the personalized service unit determines whether or not the user is in a normal condition by comparing the biometric information measured by the sensor unit with previously stored reference biometric information and outputs abnormal information if the user is in an abnormal condition.

4. The device according to claim 1, further comprising a storage unit for storing map information.

5. A navigation service providing device comprising:

a data reception unit for receiving current position information of a user and an interested product list data from a wearable device;

a product information database for storing information on in-store products;

a navigation information providing module for providing navigation information of the interested product list data received by the data reception unit using the in-store product information stored in the product information database; and

a data transmission unit for transferring the navigation information data provided by the navigation information providing module to the wearable device.

6. The device according to claim 5, wherein the data transmission unit further transfers the navigation information data of the interested products provided by the navigation information providing module to the contents providing server.

7. The device according to claim 5, wherein the navigation information providing module includes:

an interested product information extraction unit for extracting product information of interested products recorded in the interested product list from the database;

a shortest distance navigation information creation unit for creating shortest distance information by analyzing positions of at least one or more interested products using position information among the information on the interested products extracted by the interested product information extraction unit;

a product attribute navigation information creation unit for creating navigation information using product attribute information among the information on the interested products extracted by the interested product information extraction unit; and

a navigation information selection unit for selecting and providing navigation information according to a preset priority.

8. The device according to claim 7, wherein the product attribute information includes at least any one of information on a category, a quantity and a weight of a product.

9. The device according to claim 7, wherein the navigation information selection unit selects the navigation information by simultaneously considering the shortest distance information created by the shortest distance navigation information creation unit and the product attribute navigation information created by the product attribute navigation information creation unit.

10. The device according to claim 7, wherein the navigation information selection unit selects the navigation information by simultaneously considering any one of the shortest distance information created by the shortest distance navigation information creation unit and the product attribute navigation information created by the product attribute navigation information creation unit.

11. A navigation service providing device comprising:

a data reception unit for receiving images related to visiting a store and information related to the store from one or more wearable devices of users;

a navigation information database for storing the images related to visiting a store and the information related to the store, transferred from the data reception unit;

a navigation information providing module for providing navigation information selected using the images related to visiting a store and the information related to the store, transferred from the navigation information database; and

a data transmission unit for transferring the navigation information provided by the navigation information providing module to the wearable device.

12. The device according to claim 11, wherein the navigation information providing module includes a distance measurement unit for measuring a distance to the store, which is an object of the visit, using the information related to the store.

13. The device according to claim 12, wherein the navigation information providing module provides shortest distance navigation information for the store to visit using the information on the distance to the store to visit provided by the distance measurement unit.

14. The device according to claim 11, wherein the navigation information providing module further includes a digital contents provider preference determination unit for determining preference, of a digital contents provider providing digital contents, for a navigation service user.

15. The device according to claim 14, wherein the navigation information providing module provides navigation information for dropping in nearby stores which can provide digital contents provided by the digital contents provider, using information on the preference for the navigation service user provided by the digital contents provider preference determination unit.

16. The device according to claim 11, wherein the navigation information providing module includes an image combination performing unit for combining the navigation information with the images related to visiting a store.

17. The device according to claim 14, further comprising a navigation information selection unit for selecting and providing navigation information according to a preset priority.

18. The device according to claim 14, wherein the digital contents provider preference determination unit determines the preference of the digital contents provider for the navigation service user considering at least any one of information among the number of using the digital contents provided by the digital contents provider by the navigation service user, whether or not the navigation service user agrees to provide position information, and a position of the navigation service user according to the provided position information if the navigation service user agrees to provide position information.

19. The device according to claim 17, wherein the navigation information selection unit selects the navigation information using at least one of information on a distance to a store to visit provided by a distance measurement unit and information on the preference for the navigation service user provided by the digital contents provider preference determination unit.
