[0034] Hereinafter, the preferred embodiments are described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings so that a person skilled in the art can easily implement the present invention. However, in the process of describing the preferred embodiments of the present invention in detail, if it is determined that the specific description of a known function or structure will unnecessarily confuse the subject matter of the present invention, the detailed description thereof will be omitted. In addition, throughout the specification, the same reference numerals are used for parts that perform similar functions and effects.

[0035] In addition, throughout the specification, when a part is "connected" to other parts, this includes not only the case of "direct connection" but also the case of "indirect connection" with other devices in between. And, unless there is a special record to the contrary, it means that other structural elements may also be included, rather than excluding other structural elements.

[0036] Figure 1 FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the overall structure of a service system for strengthening ties between group members using a group-specific sign 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, a service system for strengthening ties between group members using a group-specific sign 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention may include a service server 100 , a group-specific sign 200 , and a member terminal 300 .

[0037] That is, in the present invention, the service server 100 receives the content created by the group members and outputs it through the group-specific signboard 200 set in a place accessible to multiple group members, so that multiple group members can share the content. As described above, if the content created by the group members is output to the group-specific signboard 200, it is different from the multiple group members each watching their personal terminals. They can watch the group-specific signboard 200 together and communicate naturally. Compared with personal terminals, usually, the content can be confirmed through the larger signboard and feel new moods and fun. It is also possible to receive information from group members who are not in the same space in real time. Group members who are not familiar with personal terminals can also confirm the content through the group-specific signboard 200. Due to the continuous display characteristics of the signboard, the content shared by group members can be easily confirmed without running applications or accessing websites, so that multiple group members can strongly feel the sense of close connection with each other and can strengthen the bond.

[0038] The group may be composed of a plurality of group members who jointly use a specific offline space where the group-specific sign 200 can be set. For example, the group may be a family, a school, a church, a company, an apartment, etc. In addition, the group members of the group may be composed of a group owner who manages the group-specific sign 200 and ordinary members. The group owner may manage the group-specific sign 200 and manage the use rights of ordinary members.

[0039] Figure 2 FIG. 2 is a diagram showing the group composition in a service system for strengthening the bond between group members using a group-specific sign 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 As shown, in a service system for strengthening the bond between group members using a group-specific sign 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention, when the group is a team within a company, A, one of the team members, can become the group leader, and the section chief, agent, clerk, etc., who are members of the team, can become ordinary members. In addition, the composition of the group is diverse. For example, if the group is a specific class in a school, the head teacher can become the group leader, and multiple students in the class can become ordinary members.

[0040] Hereinafter, various structural elements constituting a service system for strengthening ties between group members using a group-specific sign 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.

[0041] The service server 100 can provide a service to strengthen ties by sharing content between group members. That is, the service server 100 can manage the remote group-specific signage 200, and more specifically, can transmit content to the group-specific signage 200 and manage the output status. In addition, the service server 100 can authenticate the member terminal 300 accessed through the network, manage permissions, and receive content. The detailed structure of the service server 100 will be referred to later. Figure 3 Provide detailed explanation.

[0042] Among them, the network can be implemented as a wired network such as a Local Area Network (LAN), a Wide Area Network (WAN) or a Value Added Network (VAN), or all kinds of wireless networks such as a mobile radio communication network, a satellite communication network, Bluetooth, a wireless broadband Internet (Wibro), a High Speed ​​Downlink Packet Access (HSDPA), a Long Term Evolution (LTE), and 3 / 4 / 5 / 6th Generation Mobile Telecommunication.

[0043] According to an embodiment, the service server 100 can operate the web page of each group or each sign, and multiple group members can use the member terminal 300 to access the group's web page and use functions such as uploading content, browsing content, entering comments or likes and other feedback, and managing the group's dedicated sign 200 according to the permissions of each group member.

[0044] The group-specific sign 200 has a display panel on the front surface and is installed in a place accessible to group members, and is used to output the content of group members to the display panel. More specifically, the group-specific sign 200 can output the content of group members and strengthen the communication and bond between group members by sharing the content. Among them, the group-specific sign 200 means a display device with a display panel, which includes not only large displays used as outdoor billboards, but also displays of a size that can be installed in places such as homes, classrooms, and elevators.

[0045] The member terminal 300, as a terminal of a group member, can create content and share the created content through the group-specific signboard 200. The member terminal 300 can be an electronic device that performs various functions related to the group-specific signboard 200, including creating content that needs to be uploaded to the group-specific signboard 200 and sending it to the service server 100, and accessing the webpage of each group of the service server 100 to confirm the content output to the group-specific signboard 200, etc.

[0046] The electronic device may include at least one of a smart phone, a tablet computer (personal computer; PC), a mobile phone, a video phone, an e-book reader, a desktop computer (PC), a laptop computer (PC), a netbook computer, a workstation, a server, a personal digital assistant (PDA), a media box, a game console, an electronic dictionary or a wearable device. The wearable device may include at least one of an accessory type (e.g., a watch, a ring, a bracelet, an anklet, a necklace, glasses, contact lenses or a head-mounted device (HMD, head-mounted-device), a fabric or clothing integrated type (e.g., electronic clothing), a body attached type (e.g., a skin patch (skin pad) or a tattoo) or an implantable circuit. In various embodiments, the electronic device is not limited to the above-mentioned devices, and can also be a combination of two or more of the above-mentioned devices.

[0047] An application for executing various functions related to the group-specific signage 200 can be installed in the member terminal 300, and the service server 100 can be accessed through a web application, a web browser, an application, etc., and the group-specific signage 200 can be managed through the web page of each group.

[0048] Furthermore, the member terminal 300 may perform an editing function for creating content, and the editing function may include functions such as photo editing, text editing, and video editing provided by the service server 100 or provided by an application program or the like.

[0049] Figure 3 FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a detailed structure of a service server 100 in a service system for strengthening ties between group members using a group-specific sign 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3 As shown, the service server 100 of the service system of one embodiment of the present invention that utilizes a group-specific sign 200 to strengthen ties between group members may include a group management unit 110 and a sign management unit 140, and it may also include an authentication unit 120, a permission management unit 130, a database unit 150, and an editing unit 160.

[0050] The group management unit 110 can store and manage the information of group members belonging to the group and the use rights of group members according to the group. That is, the group management unit 110 can store the login information, authentication information, contact information, etc. of group members according to the group, and can store the settings of the group owner and ordinary members of each group. In addition, the group management unit 110 can edit the information of group members such as adding, modifying, deleting, etc. according to the settings of the group owner, and can also edit the use rights of ordinary members or the group owner.

[0051] On the other hand, the group management department 110 can connect the group-specific signs 200 used by each group according to the group and register them. In this case, each group may have multiple group-specific signs 200. For example, when a company has many team members and they work in multiple offices or floors, multiple group-specific signs 200 installed in each office or floor can be connected to one group and registered. In addition, for larger groups such as churches, multiple group-specific signs 200 may be required. In this case, the group management department 110 can connect multiple group-specific signs 200 to the group and register them.

[0052] The authentication unit 120 may be used to authenticate the group member to confirm whether the group member is a member of the group. More specifically, the authentication unit 120 may process the authentication step of authenticating the group member by selecting at least one authentication method from the group including scanning a QR code issued to the group, an acceptance signal from the group owner, matching a group member list stored by the group owner, inputting authentication information set by the group owner, and group member information uniformly stored in the group management unit 110.

[0053] For example, the group owner can obtain a QR code for group joining from the service server 100, and provide the obtained QR code to the user to join. The user who needs to be authenticated can access the service server 100 and scan the QR code provided by the group owner, thereby being authenticated and joining as a member of the group managed by the group owner.

[0054] Furthermore, if a user who needs to be authenticated accesses the service server 100 and inputs information such as contact information, the authentication unit 120 can use the group member information stored in the group management unit 110 to prompt the user to join a group that can be authenticated, or the user can select the prompted group and join as a group member. To this end, the group owner can preset and register the group member information that can join the group that he manages.

[0055] The authority management unit 130 may grant the group members authenticated by the authentication unit 120 the right to share content through the group-specific signboard 200. That is, the group members authenticated by the authentication unit 120 may be granted the right to upload content on the group-specific signboard 200 of the group, thereby preventing other users outside the group from using the content. Therefore, multiple group members within the group can communicate only through the group-specific signboard 200, thereby strengthening the bond within the group.

[0056] The group management unit 110 can store and manage the information of the group members authenticated by the authentication unit 120 and the use rights granted by the rights management unit 130. That is, the group management unit 110 can work together with the authentication unit 120 and the rights management unit 130 to manage the authentication status and joining status of the group members of each group and the use rights of each group member.

[0057] The signage management unit 140 can receive content created in the member terminal 300 according to the use authority of the group member, and control the received content to be output from the group-specific signage 200 of the group to which the group member belongs. That is, the signage management unit 140 can transmit the content to the group-specific signage 200 so that the content is output to the group-specific signage 200 of the group to which the group member belongs, and can also upload the content to the webpage of each group of the group so that the content can also be confirmed on the member terminal 300.

[0058] The content may include at least one of an image, text, and video, and the text may be less than a preset length. Since the content is output through the group-specific sign 200, it can be based on images and short texts of less than three sentences, and the content of the content can be intuitively grasped by briefly viewing the display screen. In addition, the content may also include multiple images (photos) and texts. For example, multiple photos taken at a dinner party can be grouped into one content. The multiple photos may also include the text of each photo.

[0059] Figure 4 and Figure 5 FIG. 2 is a diagram showing a display screen of a group-specific signboard 200 for illustrating output contents of a service system for strengthening ties between group members using the group-specific signboard 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the group-specific signboard 200 of the service system for strengthening the bond between group members using the group-specific signboard 200 according to one embodiment of the present invention can input the content uploaded by the group members according to the control of the signboard management unit 140. That is, Figure 4As shown, in the group-specific signboard 200 of the company's team, the following various contents can be output to the group-specific signboard 200 of the team, including seminar photos, promotion congratulation messages sent by team members ("Congratulations on your promotion, Director!"), reply messages to promotion congratulation messages ("Thank you for your congratulations."), weekend greetings ("Have a nice weekend!"), etc. Therefore, firstly, the member who confirms the promotion of the team member can leave a congratulatory message, and all team members can strengthen the communication between team members by checking the congratulatory messages and celebrating together.

[0060] like Figure 4 As shown, multiple contents can be simultaneously output to the display panel of the group-specific signage 200. That is, generally, the size of the signage screen is relatively larger than the size of a personal terminal such as a mobile terminal or a tablet computer (PC), so multiple contents can be displayed simultaneously. In addition, the layout of the display screen of the group-specific signage 200 can be varied, and the layout of the displayed content size or arrangement can also be flexibly configured to provide more fun.

[0061] According to an embodiment, when a content includes multiple images (photos), the multiple photos can be repeatedly displayed in sequence in a content frame. Figure 4 The seminar content at the top may include a plurality of photos taken at the seminar, and the plurality of photos may be automatically changed and repeatedly displayed at a specified time interval.

[0062] Furthermore, when the group-specific sign 200 allows the user to interact by touching or the like, if a specific content is selected, the content can also be enlarged and displayed. Figure 4 As shown, in the display screen of the group-specific sign 200, if the content of the thank-you message corresponding to the promotion congratulation message ("Thank you for your congratulations.") is selected, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown, the content can be enlarged so that detailed information such as the photo, information, creation date, creator, etc. can be more easily confirmed.

[0063] On the other hand, the group-specific sign 200 can output content according to the order of creation or popularity. That is, the most recently created content can be displayed at the top, or the content that has received the most views, selections, likes, and other feedback can be displayed at the top. In addition, it is also possible to output content in a form that combines the order of creation and the order of popularity. For example, the display screen of the group-specific sign 200 can be divided into an area for outputting content according to the order of popularity and an area for outputting content according to the order of creation and operated. In such a case, Figure 4 In the example shown, popular contents such as seminar photos can be outputted separately at the top, and contents can be outputted in the order of creation below the popular contents. In this case, a predetermined number of contents can be switched and displayed in the order of popularity at the top of the popular contents.

[0064] The sign management unit 140 can set or change at least one setting information selected from the group including the content output quantity, output time, layout, and background music of the group-specific sign 200 according to the control signal of the group owner. That is, the group owner can confirm or change the setting information of the group-specific sign 200 by accessing the service server 100, and the sign management unit 140 can remotely control the group-specific sign 200 and reflect the setting information of the group owner in real time. For example, the group owner can access the service server 100 using the member terminal 300 and change the layout of the group-specific sign 200.

[0065] On the other hand, the group member who uploaded the content can set it so that other group members cannot view the content within a specified time. For example, if there is a group member in the company team whose birthday is approaching, the content of birthday congratulations can be sent to the service server 100 in advance, and it can be set so that the content is displayed on the group-specific signboard 200 at a preset time on the birthday. In this case, ordinary members and group owners cannot view the content.

[0066] The database unit 150 can store content according to the group. The sign management unit 140 can receive the content created on the member terminal 300 and store it in the database as the content of the group to which the group member belongs. The service server 100 can operate web pages according to the group, and upload the content stored in the database unit 150 according to the group to the web page of each group, so that members can confirm the content through the web page of each group and enter various feedbacks such as likes and comments. Therefore, even when the group members are away from the group-specific sign 200 or the group-specific sign 200 is a display in a non-interactive form, they can confirm the content and enter feedback, thereby enhancing the communication and bond between group members.

[0067] The editing unit 160 can be used to provide editing tools to the member terminal 300 to create content. The editing tools provided by the editing unit 160 may include tools for editing content such as photos, text, and videos to create content for sharing through the group-specific signage 200. More specifically, the size, shape of the photo or the font, length, etc. of the text may be content dedicated to the group-specific signage 200, and a variety of filters, stickers, images, etc. for editing photos may also be provided. A variety of tools for selecting and applying the size, color, font, position, etc. of the text may also be provided. In addition, the editing unit 160 may also provide a preview function in the member terminal 300 so that the status of the created content when it is output to the group-specific signage 200 can be confirmed in advance.

[0068] As described above, according to the service system proposed by the present invention for strengthening the bond between group members using the group-specific sign 200, the content created by group members can be output and shared by installing the group-specific sign 200 in a place accessible to multiple group members, thereby activating communication between group members who share the content and strengthening the bond, and multiple group members can watch the content output to the group-specific sign 200 and obtain additional fun.

[0069] On the other hand, the present invention may include a computer-readable medium including program instructions for executing operations implemented in a variety of communication terminals. For example, the computer-readable medium may include magnetic media such as hard disks, floppy disks, and magnetic tapes, optical recording media such as compact disks (CD-ROMs), high-density digital video disks (DVDs), magneto-optical media such as floptical disks, and hardware devices such as read-only memories (ROMs), random access memories (RAMs), flash memories, etc. that are specifically used to store and execute program instructions.

[0070] Such computer-readable media may contain program instructions, data files, data structures, etc., alone or in combination. In this case, the program instructions recorded on the computer-readable medium may be specially designed and constructed to implement the present invention, or may be well known and usable by those skilled in the art of computer software. For example, it may include not only machine codes generated by a compiler, but also high-level language codes executed by a computer using an interpreter, etc.

[0071] A person skilled in the art may make various modifications or applications to the above-described invention, and the scope of the technical concept of the invention should be determined according to the following scope of protection of the invention.
