DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0007] (First embodiment) Hereinafter, application programs and control methods for mobile terminal devices according to the embodiments will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is an overall view of a transportation system 1 according to each embodiment. A mobile terminal device 100, an application server 300, and a center server 400 communicate with each other via a network NW. An automatic ticket gate 200 communicates with the center server 400 via a dedicated line. The mobile terminal device 100 and the automatic ticket gate 200 do not communicate directly with each other. The network NW is a LAN (Local Area Network), a WAN (Wide Area Network), a Wi-Fi network, the Internet, or the like. By holding the mobile terminal device 100 over the automatic ticket gate 200, the automatic ticket gate 200 reads information. Details will be described later.

[0008] 2 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of a mobile terminal device 100. The mobile terminal device 100 is, for example, a smartphone, a tablet terminal, a wearable terminal, etc. The mobile terminal device 100 includes a communication unit 110, an IC chip 120, an output unit 130, a processor 140, a touch panel 150, and a storage unit 160.

[0009] The communication unit 110 is a communication interface for connecting to the network NW. The communication unit 110 is, for example, a network card.

[0010] The IC chip 120 transmits and receives information by wirelessly communicating with the optical reading unit 230 of the automated ticket gate 200 using NFC (Near Field Communication) technology. This communication is an example of the "first wireless communication".

[0011] The output unit 130 controls the screen display and sound output via earphones of the mobile terminal device 100. The earphones are connected to the mobile terminal device 100 by wire or via Bluetooth (registered trademark) or the like.

[0012] The processor 140 is, for example, a central processing unit (CPU). The processor 140 executes programs such as a traffic application 162 and a music playback application 166.

[0013] Touch panel 150 is, for example, a display device such as an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) or an organic EL (Electroluminescence) display, and receives touch operations from a user.

[0014] The storage unit 160 stores a transportation application 162 and a music playback application 166. The storage unit 160 may be realized by the above-mentioned various storage devices, or an EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory), a ROM (Read Only Memory), a RAM (Random Access Memory), or the like.

[0015] The transportation application 162 is an application program that is installed in the mobile terminal device 100 and used by the user before passing through the automated ticket gate 200. The transportation application 162 can use a ticket reservation service. The transportation application 162 can manage reservations for trains that the user wants to board and tickets for passing through the automated ticket gate 200. The transportation application 162 includes a sound pattern table 164. The sound pattern table 164 will be described later.

[0016] The music playback application 166 is an application program that is installed and used by the user in the mobile terminal device 100. The music playback application 166 has a function of playing sound through earphones connected to the mobile terminal device 100.

[0017] 3 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of the automated ticket gate 200. The automated ticket gate 200 includes, for example, a communication unit 210, a control unit 220, an optical reading unit 230, a display unit 240, and a door unit 250.

[0018] The communication unit 210 is a communication interface for connecting to the network NW. The communication unit 210 is, for example, a network card.

[0019] The control unit 220 controls the entire automated ticket gate 200. For example, the control unit 220 controls devices provided in the automated ticket gate 200 to prohibit or permit a user from passing through the station premises or to pass through the station premises, the power supply of the automated ticket gate 200, and the like.

[0020] The optical reading unit 230 captures an image of the code image 165 displayed on the touch panel 150 of the mobile terminal device 100 with a camera, and analyzes the captured image to read information.

[0021] The display unit 240 is provided, for example, on the top surface of the automated ticket gate 200, and displays messages, warnings, and other information for the user.

[0022] The door unit 250 switches between a state where it is stored on the side of the automated ticket gate 200 and a state where it protrudes into the passage of the automated ticket gate 200 to prevent users from passing through (restricted state) in response to an instruction from the control unit 220. When the control unit 220 obtains a determination result of no passage from the center server 400, it switches the door unit 250 to the restricted state.

[0023] FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of the application server 300. The application server 300 includes, for example, a communication unit 310, an information management unit 320, a reservation unit 330, and a storage unit 340. The information management unit 320 and the reservation unit 330 are realized by, for example, a hardware processor such as a CPU executing a program (software). Some or all of these components may be realized by hardware (including circuitry) such as an LSI (Large Scale Integration), an ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit), an FPGA (Field-Programmable Gate Array), or a GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), or may be realized by cooperation between software and hardware. The program may be stored in advance in a storage device (a storage device having a non-transient storage medium) such as an HDD (Hard Disk Drive) or a flash memory, or may be stored in a removable storage medium (a non-transient storage medium) such as a DVD or a CD-ROM, and may be installed by mounting the storage medium in a drive device.

[0024] The communication unit 310 is a communication interface for connecting to the network NW. The communication unit 310 is, for example, a network card.

[0025] The information management unit 320 manages ticket reservations and manages registration information of users in the transportation application 162. For example, the information management unit 320 may be able to search a registration information table 342 (described later) for registration information of users using a user ID as a key item.

[0026] The reservation unit 330 receives a request from the transportation application 162, transmits reservation information to the center server 400, and also performs billing processing for the user.

[0027] The storage unit 340 stores a registration information table 342. Fig. 5 is a diagram showing an example of the registration information table 342. The registration information table 342 is a collection of information on users who have registered with the ticket reservation service. In the registration information table 342, for example, information such as user IDs, names, and contact email addresses are associated with each other.

[0028] FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of the center server 400. The center server 400 includes a communication unit 410, a ticket management unit 420, a passage determination unit 430, and a storage unit 440. As with the application server 300, components other than the communication unit 410 and the storage unit 440 are realized by a hardware processor such as a CPU executing a program (software). Some or all of these components may be realized by hardware (including circuitry) such as an LSI, ASIC, FPGA, or GPU, or may be realized by cooperation between software and hardware. The program may be stored in advance in a storage device such as an HDD or flash memory (a storage device having a non-transient storage medium), or may be stored in a removable storage medium such as a DVD or CD-ROM (a non-transient storage medium), and may be installed by mounting the storage medium in a drive device.

[0029] The communication unit 410 is a communication interface for connecting to the network NW. The communication unit 410 is, for example, a network card.

[0030] The ticket management unit 420 manages reserved tickets for the ticket reservation service in response to a request from the application server 300. The ticket management unit 420 registers reservation information in a ticket table 452.

[0031] The passage determination unit 430 searches the reservation information table 442 using the information acquired from the automated ticket gate 200, and determines whether the user is permitted to pass (performs a passage determination). For example, it acquires one record using the user ID acquired from the automated ticket gate 200, and determines to permit passage when the station where the automated ticket gate 200 that transmitted the information is located, the date and time, etc. match the reservation information. The passage determination unit 430 determines not to permit passage when there is no record that matches the reservation information.

[0032] The storage unit 440 stores a reservation information table 442. Fig. 7 is a diagram showing an example of the contents of the reservation information table 442. The reservation information table 442 is a collection of reservation information for a passenger ticket reservation service. For example, the reservation information table 442 associates information such as a user ID, a reservation ID, a date and time, an entrance station, and an exit station with each other.

[0033] 8 is a schematic diagram of the first embodiment. In the first embodiment, a user connects earphones to the mobile terminal device 100 and plays music from the music playback application 155 ((1) in the diagram).

[0034] The user operates the transportation application 162 to reserve a ticket with the ticket reservation service. The reservation information entered into the transportation application 162 and the user ID linked to the transportation application 162 are transmitted to the application server 300 ((2) in the figure). The transmitted reservation information and user ID are received by the communication unit 310 of the application server 300. The information management unit 320 searches for information in the registration information table 342 in the storage unit 340 based on the transmitted user ID, and identifies the registration information of the user.

[0035] The application server 300 transmits the user's registration information and reservation information to the center server 400 ((3) in the figure). The communication unit 410 of the center server 400 receives the transmitted information. The ticket management unit 420 of the center server 400 stores the received reservation information in a reservation information table 442 in the storage unit 440.

[0036] The user displays the code image 165 on the mobile terminal device 100 and holds it over the optical reading unit 230 of the automated ticket gate 200 ((4) in the figure). The code image 165 may include, for example, reservation information and a user ID.

[0037] The control unit 220 of the automated ticket gate 200 receives the reservation information read from the code image 165 and the user ID of the user from the optical reading unit 230 ((5) in the figure).

[0038] Next, the control unit 220 of the automated ticket gate 200 queries the center server 400 for reservation information and the user's registration information. The passage determination unit 430 of the center server 400 searches the reservation information table 442 in the memory unit 440 for reservation information that matches the query reservation information. The passage determination unit 430 of the center server 400 determines whether the user can pass through the automated ticket gate 200 depending on whether matching reservation information exists in the reservation information table 442 ((6) in the figure). The result of the determination is regarded as the determination result.

[0039] The center server 400 and the application server 300 share the determination result ((7)-1 in the figure). The center server 400 also shares the determination result with the automated ticket gate 200 ((7)-2 in the figure). The communication unit 210 of the automated ticket gate 200 receives the determination result and transmits it to the control unit 220. If the determination result is that passage is prohibited, the control unit 220 closes the door unit 250. If the determination result is that passage is permitted, the control unit 220 does not operate the door unit 250.

[0040] In response to this, the application server 300 communicates the determination result to the transportation application 162 of the mobile terminal device 100 ((8) in the drawing).

[0041] The transportation application 162 inquires of the OS 170 as to whether or not the mobile terminal device 100 is connected to earphones ((9) in the figure).

[0042] The OS 170 notifies the transportation application 162 whether or not earphones are connected to the mobile terminal device 100 ((10) in the figure). The transportation application 162 acquires connection information of the earphone jack and Bluetooth connection information via the OS, for example, and recognizes that the user is using earphones.

[0043] If the result of linkage from the OS 170 indicates that earphones are connected and the result of the passage determination indicates that passage is prohibited, the transportation application 162 notifies the user by sound via the earphones ((11) in the figure). The transportation application 162 may decide whether or not to notify depending on the combination of the determination result and the connection state of the earphones.

[0044] FIG. 9 is a table showing whether or not a notification is given depending on the combination of the judgment result and the connection state of the earphones. If the judgment result indicates that passage is permitted, no notification is given regardless of whether the earphones are used. If the judgment result indicates that passage is not permitted and the earphones are used, the transportation application 162 notifies the user of the abnormality judgment by sounding the earphones. If the judgment result indicates that passage is not permitted and the earphones are not used, the transportation application 162 does not notify the abnormality, but the automatic ticket gate 200 notifies the user of the impossibility of passage as in the conventional processing. Alternatively, the transportation application 162 may display a screen on the mobile terminal device 100, activate a vibration function, or play a warning sound. The transportation application 162 may notify the user of the abnormality judgment by sound by displaying a screen on the mobile terminal device 100, activating a vibration function of the mobile terminal device 100, or playing a warning sound.

[0045] The method by which the transportation application 162 notifies the user of the abnormality determination notification is to notify by sound. There may be multiple types of voice notification. The sound pattern table 164 stores the sound pattern. FIG. 10 is a diagram showing an example of a sound pattern. For example, the sound pattern table 164 may hold multiple sound patterns according to the railway company. ((A) in the figure) The railway company is determined based on the reservation information. Also, multiple sound patterns may be held according to the type of abnormality determination ((B) in the figure). The type of abnormality determination may be, for example, when the vehicle is outside the reserved section, when the reservation date and time is a different date and time, when information is unknown due to a reading error of the code image 165, etc. A voice explaining the type of abnormality determination result, or an electronic sound that differs depending on the type, or a sound may be output uniformly without switching.

[0046] According to the first embodiment described above, the transportation application 162 notifies the user by sound, so that the user can be notified that the automatic ticket gate 200 is not passable even if the user is wearing earphones. Conventionally, when the passability judgment was that the user was not allowed to pass, the door was suddenly closed, so that the user may not understand the situation, but the above process can improve the user's convenience. In addition, since the display on the display unit may be turned off, it is assumed that the user may not understand why the passability judgment was not allowed, but it is also possible to provide information regarding the reason for the abnormal judgment as described above.

[0047] Second embodiment The second embodiment will be described below. FIG. 11 is a schematic diagram of the second embodiment. The basic configuration is the same as that of the first embodiment, but a difference is that the IC chip 120 of the mobile terminal device 100 is used. In the first embodiment, the automatic ticket gate 200 is provided with an optical reading unit 230, but in the second embodiment, the automatic ticket gate 200 is provided with a reader / writer unit 260. The reader / writer unit 260 wirelessly communicates with the IC chip 120 of the mobile terminal device 100 held up to the automatic ticket gate 200, and reads information from the IC chip 120 and writes information to the IC chip 120.

[0048] The user connects earphones to the mobile terminal device 100 and plays music from the music playback application 155 ((1) in the figure).

[0049] A user operates the transportation application 162 to reserve a ticket through the ticket reservation service. The reservation information entered into the transportation application 162 and the user ID linked to the transportation application 162 are transmitted to the application server 300 ((2) in the figure). The transmitted reservation information and user ID are received by the communication unit 310 of the application server 300. The information management unit 320 searches for information in the registration information table 342 in the storage unit 340 based on the transmitted user ID, and identifies the registration information of the user.

[0050] The application server 300 transmits the user's registration information and the reservation information linked in (2) to the center server 400 ((3) in the figure). The communication unit 410 of the center server 400 receives the transmitted information. The ticket management unit 420 of the center server 400 stores the received reservation information in the reservation information table 442 of the storage unit 440.

[0051] The user holds the IC chip 120 of the mobile terminal device 100 over the reader / writer unit 260 of the automated ticket gate 200 ((4) in the figure). For example, the IC chip 120 may include a user ID.

[0052] The control unit 220 of the automated ticket gate 200 receives the user ID read from the IC chip 120 by the reader / writer unit 260 ((5) in the figure).

[0053] Next, the control unit 220 of the automated ticket gate 200 queries the center server 400 for reservation information and the user's registration information. The passage determination unit 430 of the center server 400 determines whether the user can pass through the automated ticket gate 200, for example, based on whether matching reservation information exists in the reservation information table 442. If matching reservation information exists, it determines that the user can pass through, and if matching reservation information does not exist, it determines that the user cannot pass through. The result of the determination is regarded as the determination result ((6) in the figure).

[0054] The center server 400 and the application server 300 share the determination result ((7)-1 in the figure). The center server 400 also shares the determination result with the automated ticket gate 200 ((7)-2 in the figure). The communication unit 210 of the automated ticket gate 200 receives the determination result and transmits it to the control unit 220. If the determination result is that passage is prohibited, the control unit 220 closes the door unit 250. If the determination result is that passage is permitted, the control unit 220 does not operate the door unit 250.

[0055] In response to this, the application server 300 communicates the determination result to the transportation application 162 of the mobile terminal device 100 ((8) in the drawing).

[0056] The transportation application 162 inquires of the OS 170 as to whether or not the mobile terminal device 100 is connected to earphones ((9) in the figure).

[0057] The OS 170 notifies the transportation application 162 whether or not earphones are connected to the mobile terminal device 100 ((10) in the figure). The transportation application 162 acquires connection information of the earphone jack and Bluetooth connection information via the OS, for example, and recognizes that the user is using earphones.

[0058] If the result of linkage from the OS 170 indicates that earphones are connected and the result of the passage determination indicates that passage is prohibited, the transportation application 162 notifies the user by sound ((11) in the figure). As in the first embodiment, the transportation application 162 may decide whether or not to notify depending on the combination of the determination result and the connection state of the earphones.

[0059] In addition to the notification by sound patterns as in the first embodiment, the notification may be performed by a combination of screen display, activation of vibration function, playback of warning sound, etc., or by a single method. A plurality of patterns of notification by sound patterns may be stored.

[0060] According to the second embodiment described above, even if a user attempts to pass through the automated ticket gate 200 using the IC chip 120 of the mobile terminal device 100 and is denied passage, an abnormality determination notification can be given.

[0061] In the first and second embodiments, the center server 400 determines whether or not a user can pass based on the reservation information, but instead, a mechanism may be adopted in which the automated ticket gate 200 uploads a user ID and the like to the center server 400, the center server 400 stores an entrance history, and the entrance history and information on the exit station are used to determine whether or not a user can pass by referring to a fare derivation table 272 (described later). Information on the entrance station and the exit station is transmitted from the automated ticket gate 200 to the center server 400 together with the user ID. Even in this case, the mechanism for alerting a user via earphones can be similarly applied.

[0062] (Third embodiment) The third embodiment will be described below. FIG. 12 is a schematic diagram of the third embodiment. In the third embodiment, a user passes through the automatic ticket gate 200 using the IC chip 120 of the mobile terminal device 100 without using a ticket reservation service. Compared with the first and second embodiments, the third embodiment is different in that the mobile terminal device 100 includes a short-range communication unit 180, and the automatic ticket gate 200 includes a short-range communication unit 280. The short-range communication unit 180 and the short-range communication unit 280 communicate with each other based on Bluetooth, for example. This is an example of "second wireless communication." The automatic ticket gate 200 further includes a memory unit 270. The memory unit 270 stores a fare derivation table 272. The fare derivation table 272 stores the fare required to reach the station where the automatic ticket gate 200 is installed as information. The automatic ticket gate 200 subtracts the fare derived from the fare derivation table 272 from the charge balance of the IC chip 120 of the user.

[0063] The user connects earphones to the mobile terminal device 100 and plays music from the music playback application 155 ((1) in the figure).

[0064] The user holds the IC chip 120 of the mobile terminal device 100 over the reader / writer unit 260 of the automatic ticket gate 200 ((2) in the figure).

[0065] The control unit 220 of the automated ticket gate 200 reads the information recorded in the IC chip 120 by the reader / writer unit 260 ((3) in the figure).

[0066] Next, the control unit 220 of the automatic ticket gate 200 judges whether or not the user can pass through the automatic ticket gate 200 based on the information recorded in the IC chip 120. The control unit 220 of the automatic ticket gate 200 links the judgment result to the transportation application 162 ((4) in the figure). The information recorded in the IC chip 120 is information on the entrance station and the charge balance, etc. When the user enters the station premises from the automatic ticket gate 200, there is no information on the entrance station. When there is no information on the entrance station, the station to which the user is currently going to pass is set as the entrance station. When the user leaves the station premises from the automatic ticket gate 200, there is information on the entrance station. When making an entry judgment, the control unit 220 of the automatic ticket gate 200 judges that the user can pass if the charge balance is equal to or greater than the minimum fare. When making an exit judgment, the control unit 220 of the automatic ticket gate 200 calculates the fare based on the difference from the current station based on the information on the entrance station and judges whether or not the user can pass. The control unit 220 determines that passage is prohibited if the charge balance is less than the fare, and determines that passage is permitted if the charge balance is equal to or greater than the fare.

[0067] The transportation application 162 inquires of the OS 170 as to whether or not the mobile terminal device 100 is connected to earphones ((5) in the figure).

[0068] The OS 170 notifies the transportation application 162 whether or not earphones are connected to the mobile terminal device 100 ((6) in the figure). The transportation application 162 acquires connection information of the earphone jack and Bluetooth connection information via the OS, for example, and recognizes that the user is using earphones.

[0069] If the result of linkage from the OS 170 indicates that earphones are connected and the result of the passage determination indicates that passage is prohibited, the transportation application 162 notifies the user by sound ((7) in the figure). As in the first and second embodiments, the transportation application 162 may decide whether or not to notify depending on the combination of the determination result and the connection state of the earphones.

[0070] According to the third embodiment described above, it is possible to notify the user of an abnormality determination via his / her earphones even when the passenger ticket reservation service is not used.

[0071] In the third embodiment, instead of short-distance wireless communication, a mechanism in which the IC chip 120 and the transportation application 162 cooperate with each other may be used. In this case, the IC chip 120 acquires a result of a determination that passage is prohibited from the automatic ticket gate 200, and transfers the result to the transportation application 162.

[0072] According to at least one of the embodiments described above, the processor 140 of the mobile terminal device 100 recognizes that a user entering or exiting a station is wearing earphones when passing through the automatic ticket gate 200, detects when the passage judgment is abnormal when the user passes through the automatic ticket gate, and if it detects that an abnormal judgment has been made, notifies the user by sound via the earphones, thereby improving convenience for users who are wearing earphones connected to the mobile terminal device and passing through the automatic ticket gate.

[0073] Although some embodiments of the present invention have been described, these embodiments are presented as examples and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. These embodiments can be implemented in various other forms, and various omissions, substitutions, and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention. These embodiments and their modifications are included in the scope of the invention and its equivalents described in the claims, as well as in the scope and spirit of the invention.
