[0089]

[0090] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the attached drawings.

[0091]

[0092] FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating a configuration of a direct connection service system through a matching area according to an embodiment of the present invention. As illustrated in FIG. 1, the direct connection service system through a matching area according to an embodiment of the present invention may be configured to include a user terminal (100) running an application that provides a location button for direct connection to content corresponding to a matching area; and a service server (200) that searches for a matching area corresponding to the location information of the user terminal (100) when the location button is selected on the user terminal (100) and provides a pre-registered link for the matching area. Here, the user terminal (100) can directly connect to the link provided by the service server (200) and output the content.

[0093]

[0094] FIG. 2 is a drawing illustrating an example of a user entering a matching area (10) in a direct connection service system through a matching area (10) according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 3 is a drawing illustrating an example of a direct connection service being implemented in a user terminal (100) in a direct connection service system through a matching area (10) according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0095]

[0096] As illustrated in FIG. 2, a user may enter a matching area (10) with a user terminal (100), run an application of the user terminal (100) as illustrated in FIG. 3, and select a location button presented on the first screen of the application. Then, the service server (200) searches for a matching area (10) corresponding to the location information of the user terminal (100), and provides a pre-registered link for the matching area (10), so that the user terminal (100) can directly access the link and output content corresponding to the matching area (10). Consequently, as illustrated in FIG. 3, when the user touches only the location button on the user terminal (100), content A of SNS corresponding to the matching area (10) that includes the current user's location can be immediately output.

[0097]

[0098] Here, the matching area (10) can be various, such as inside and outside of an offline store, inside a shopping mall, etc., and can also be a plaza, park, outdoor observatory, entrance to a hiking trail, private garden, private forest, etc. where there are no stores or buildings but people walk by and have traffic. At this time, the matching area (10) can be set by the service server (200), and the store manager or the owner of the matching area (10) (local creator) can also set the matching area (10). For example, the service server (200) can automatically set the matching area (10), and if necessary, the store manager, the owner of the matching area (10), etc. can reset the matching area (10). According to an embodiment, the matching area (10) can be rented from the owner of a building, plaza, park, etc., so that a specific person's channel can be directly connected from the matching area (10). That is, the owner of a building, store, plaza, park, etc. can lease the matching area (10) to a third party such as a service server (200) or a local creator (store manager, etc.). When the matching area (10) is leased, users within the matching area (10) of the building, store, etc. can directly access a channel or advertisement automatically set by the third party tenant or the service server (200).

[0099]

[0100] In addition, a corresponding link may be pre-registered in each matching area (10), and the link may be connected to an online channel (content) such as a homepage, social media, Instagram, YouTube, or blog of the owner (or manager, tenant, etc.) of the matching area (10). Therefore, customers who visit a matching area (10) such as an offline store can easily visit an online channel without a separate search or code scan, and can also gain additional enjoyment in the process of visiting multiple online channels while moving through the matching area (10). At this time, if a local creator (the owner, manager, tenant, etc. of the matching area (10)) has multiple channels such as a blog, website, Instagram, or YouTube, multiple channels may be linked to the matching area (10) of the local creator.

[0101]

[0102] Meanwhile, the user terminal (100) may be implemented as an electronic device used by a user. Here, the electronic device may include at least one of a smart phone, a tablet PC (personal computer), a mobile phone, a video phone, an e-book reader, a PDA (personal digital assistant), a media box, a game console, an electronic dictionary, or a wearable device, and 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), an integrated fabric or clothing type (e.g., an electronic garment), a body-attached type (e.g., a skin pad or tattoo), or an implantable circuit. In various embodiments, the electronic device is not limited to the above-described devices, and may be a combination of two or more of the various above-described devices.

[0103]

[0104] Additionally, an application providing a location button may be run on the user terminal (100). The application is an application installed and run on a mobile device, and may provide a location button on the initial screen upon launch. In some embodiments, the application may provide a push notification when the user terminal (100) enters the matching area (10), prompting the user to select the location button.

[0105]

[0106] FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating a detailed configuration of a service server (200) in a direct connection service system through a matching area (10) according to an embodiment of the present invention. As illustrated in FIG. 4, the service server (200) of the direct connection service system through a matching area (10) according to an embodiment of the present invention may be configured to include a database unit (210), an area matching unit (220), and a link providing unit (230).

[0107]

[0108] The database unit (210) can store setting information for the matching area (10) and links registered by the owner of the matching area (10). Here, the matching area (10) and links can be set and registered by a store manager or the like. The store manager or the like can set and own the matching area (10), and depending on the embodiment, the matching areas (10) of multiple owners may overlap each other.

[0109]

[0110] FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of the structure of a database unit (210) in which setting information and links of a matching area (10) are correspondingly stored in a direct connection service system through a matching area (10) according to an embodiment of the present invention. As illustrated in FIG. 5, the database unit (210) of the direct connection service system through a matching area (10) according to an embodiment of the present invention can store matching areas (10) and links in correspondence with each other. At this time, the links may be online channels operated by the owner, manager, etc. of each matching area (10). That is, in FIG. 5, matching area 1 is a matching area (10) owned by A, and A's SNS link can be registered in correspondence with matching area 1. In addition, matching areas 2 and 3 are matching areas (10) owned by B and C, respectively, and B's homepage and C's YouTube link can be registered in correspondence with matching areas 2 and 3, respectively. At this time, multiple links may be correspondingly stored in each matching area (10). For example, if the owner, manager, or tenant of the matching area (10) operates multiple channels, all links connected to each channel are registered in the matching area (10), so that multiple links can be stored in correspondence with one matching area (10).

[0111]

[0112] The area matching unit (220) can receive location information from the user terminal (100) in which the location button is selected, and search for a matching area (10) that includes the received location information. That is, as illustrated in FIG. 2, when the user holds the user terminal (100) and is within the matching area (10), and as illustrated in FIG. 3, when the user touches the location button in the application, the user terminal (100) can transmit the location information to the service server (200). The area matching unit (220) can search for a corresponding matching area (10) using the location information of the user terminal (100). Here, the location information of the user terminal (100) can use GPS or a mobile communication network, but can also use precise location information by UWB (Ultra-Wideband).

[0113]

[0114] The link providing unit (230) can search for a pre-registered link for a matching area (10) searched in the database unit (210) and provide the searched link to the user terminal (100). That is, the link providing unit (230) can search for a link in the database unit (210) where a link is stored in correspondence with a matching area (10), as illustrated in FIG. 5, and provide the searched link to the user terminal (100). The user terminal (100) can directly access the link provided by the service server (200) and output content.

[0115]

[0116] Therefore, users can conveniently access content (online channels) simply by entering the matching area (10), and owners or managers of the matching area (10) can increase the influx of customers to the online channel through this. In addition, if matching areas (10) are set inside and outside of each offline store, such as a shopping mall, users can move between matching areas (10) simply by walking through the shopping mall, and enjoy the fun of being connected to the online channels of different stores each time they touch the location button in the application.

[0117]

[0118] Meanwhile, there may be multiple matching areas (10) that include location information, such as when at least a portion of the matching area (10) overlaps, or when the location information of the user terminal (100) does not include information about each floor in a multi-story shopping mall. FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating an example of a case in which there are multiple matching areas (10) that include location information of the user terminal (100) in a direct access service system through the matching area (10) according to an embodiment of the present invention. That is, if matching areas (10) are set on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd floors, matching areas (10) that include location information of the user terminal (100) can all be searched, even if the user is on the 1st floor.

[0119]

[0120] FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating an example of a direct connection service system through a matching area (10) according to an embodiment of the present invention, in which a direct connection service is implemented in a user terminal (100) when there are multiple searched matching areas (10). As illustrated in FIGS. 6 and 7, in the direct connection service system through a matching area (10) according to an embodiment of the present invention, if there are multiple matching areas (10) that include location information of the user terminal (100), the area matching unit (220) can provide a list of multiple matching areas (10) to the user terminal (100). The user terminal (100) can output a list of multiple matching areas (10) provided by the area matching unit (220) and receive a user's selection from the list. The link providing unit (230) can provide a pre-registered link for a matching area (10) selected by the user from the list of multiple matching areas (10) to the user terminal (100). That is, as shown in Fig. 7, when a user touches the location button in the application, if there are multiple matching areas (10) to be searched, a list of matching areas (10) is displayed, and when the user selects one from the list (for example, selecting the first floor (A)), the user is directly connected to the SNS link of A corresponding to matching area 1, and the corresponding content can be output.

[0121]

[0122] FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating a flow of a direct connection service method through a matching area (10) according to an embodiment of the present invention. As illustrated in FIG. 8, the direct connection service method through a matching area (10) according to an embodiment of the present invention is performed in a direct connection service system, and may be implemented including a step (S110) of selecting a location button in a user terminal (100), a step (S120) of searching for a matching area (10) corresponding to the location information of the user terminal (100) in a service server (200), a step (S130) of providing a pre-registered link for the matching area (10) in the service server (200), and a step (S140) of directly connecting to a link provided by the service server (200) in the user terminal (100) and outputting content.

[0123]

[0124] FIG. 9 is a diagram illustrating a flow including a step S125 that is added when there are multiple searched matching areas (10) in a direct connection service method through a matching area (10) according to an embodiment of the present invention. As illustrated in FIG. 9, the direct connection service method through a matching area (10) according to an embodiment of the present invention can implement a situation in which there are multiple searched matching areas (10) by further including a step (S125) of outputting a list of multiple matching areas (10) provided by an area matching unit (220) in a user terminal (100) between steps S120 and S130 and receiving a user's selection from the list.

[0125]

[0126] Since the details related to each step have been sufficiently explained in relation to the direct access service system through the matching area (10) according to one embodiment of the present invention, a detailed description will be omitted.

[0127]

[0128] As described above, according to the direct access service system and method through the matching area (10) proposed in the present invention, when a location button is selected in an application of a user terminal (100), the service server (200) searches for a matching area (10) corresponding to the location information of the user terminal (100) and provides a pre-registered link for the matching area (10), so that the content corresponding to the matching area (10) is immediately output when the user terminal (100) accesses the link, thereby allowing a customer visiting a matching area (10) such as an offline store to easily visit an online channel without a separate search or code scan, and can also provide additional fun in the process of visiting multiple online channels while moving through the matching area (10).
