[0035] FIG. 1 is a block diagram briefly illustrating the configuration of a tagging-based game providing system (100) that simultaneously provides a plurality of games according to the present disclosure.

[0036] Referring to FIG. 1, a game providing system (100) according to the present disclosure may include an input / output module (110), a communication module (120), a memory (130), and a processor (140). Hereinafter, the game providing system (100) is an electronic device that provides game content to a plurality of users simultaneously, and the method thereof is assumed to be implemented through the game providing system (100).

[0037] The input / output module (110) may be various interfaces or connection ports that receive user input or output information to the user. The input / output module (110) may be divided into an input module and an output module.

[0038] The input module receives user input from the user. The input module is for inputting video information (or signals), audio information (or signals), data, or information input by the user, and may include at least one of at least one camera, at least one microphone, and a user input unit. Voice data or image data collected by the input unit may be analyzed and processed into a user control command.

[0039] User input can take various forms, including key input, touch input, and voice input. Examples of input modules capable of receiving such user input include traditional keypads, keyboards, and mice; as well as touch sensors that detect user touch; microphones that receive voice signals; cameras that recognize gestures through image recognition; proximity sensors consisting of light or infrared sensors that detect user approach; motion sensors that recognize user movements using accelerometers or gyroscopes; and all other diverse forms of input means that detect or receive various types of user input. This is a comprehensive concept.

[0040] Here, the touch sensor can be implemented as a piezoelectric or capacitive touch sensor that detects touch through a touch panel or touch film attached to the display panel, or as an optical touch sensor that detects touch by an optical method. In addition, the input module may be implemented in the form of an input interface (USB port, PS / 2 port, etc.) that connects an external input device to receive user input, instead of a device that detects user input itself.

[0041] The output module can output various types of information and provide it to the user. The output module is a comprehensive concept that includes a display for outputting video, a speaker for outputting sound (and / or an amplifier connected thereto), a haptic device for generating vibration, and various other forms of output means. In addition, the output module may be implemented in the form of a port-type output interface that connects the individual output means described above.

[0042] For example, an output module in the form of a display can display text, still images, and videos. The term "display" refers to a broad concept of an image display device that includes all types of devices capable of performing image output functions, such as Liquid Crystal Displays (LCDs), Light Emitting Diode (LED) displays, Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) displays, Flat Panel Displays (FPDs), transparent displays, Curved Displays, flexible displays, 1D displays, holographic displays, projectors, and others. Such a display may also take the form of a touch display integrated with the touch sensor of an input module.

[0043] In other words, the input / output module (110) can receive user input or provide output to the user based on a user interface.

[0044] The communication module (120) can communicate with an external device. Accordingly, the device can transmit and receive information with an external device through the communication module. For example, the device can communicate with an external device using the communication module so that information stored and generated within the electric vehicle charging management system is shared. The communication module (120) may include, for example, at least one of a wired communication module, a wireless communication module, a short-range communication module, and a location information module.

[0045] Here, communication, that is, the transmission and reception of data, can be performed via wired or wireless means. To this end, the communication module may be composed of a wired communication module that connects to the Internet, etc., via a Local Area Network (LAN); a mobile communication module that connects to a mobile communication network via a mobile communication base station to transmit and receive data; a short-range communication module that uses a Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) family communication method such as Wi-Fi or a Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN) family communication method such as Bluetooth or Zigbee; a satellite communication module that uses a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) such as GPS; or a combination thereof. The wireless communication technology used for communication may include Narrowband Internet of Things (NB-IoT) for low-power communication. In this case, for example, NB-IoT technology may be an example of LPWAN (Low Power Wide Area Network) technology and may be implemented according to standards such as LTE Cat (category) NB1 and / or LTE Cat NB2, but is not limited to the names mentioned above. Additionally, or generally, wireless communication technology implemented in wireless devices according to various embodiments may perform communication based on LTE-M technology. In this case, for example, LTE-M technology may be an example of LPWAN technology and may be referred to by various names such as eMTC (enhanced Machine Type Communication).For example, LTE-M technology may be implemented in at least one of various standards such as 1) LTE CAT 0, 2) LTE Cat M1, 3) LTE Cat M2, 4) LTE non-BL (non-Bandwidth Limited), 5) LTE-MTC, 6) LTE Machine Type Communication, and / or 7) LTE M, and is not limited to the names mentioned above. Additionally or generally, wireless communication technology implemented in wireless devices according to various embodiments may include at least one of ZigBee, Bluetooth, and Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) for low-power communication, and is not limited to the names mentioned above. As an example, ZigBee technology can create personal area networks (PANs) related to small / low-power digital communication based on various standards such as IEEE 802.15.4 and may be referred to by various names.

[0046] The memory (130) can store various types of information. The memory can store data temporarily or semi-permanently. For example, the memory may store an operating system (OS) for operating the first device and / or the second device, data for hosting a website, or data regarding a program or application (e.g., a web application) for generating Braille. In addition, the memory may store modules in the form of computer code as described above.

[0047] Examples of memory (130) may include a hard disk drive (HDD), a solid state drive (SSD), flash memory, ROM (Read-Only Memory), and RAM (Random Access Memory). These memories may be provided as built-in or removable types.

[0048] The processor (140) controls the overall operation of the game providing system (100). To this end, the processor (140) performs computation and processing of various information and can control the operation of the components of the first device and / or the second device.

[0049] The processor (140) may be implemented as a computer or a similar device according to hardware, software, or a combination thereof. Hardware-wise, the processor (140) may be provided in the form of an electronic circuit that processes electrical signals to perform control functions, and software-wise, it may be provided in the form of a program that drives the hardware processor. Meanwhile, unless otherwise specifically mentioned in the following description, the operation of the first device and / or the second device may be interpreted as being performed by the control of the processor (140). That is, the modules may be interpreted as the processor (140) controlling the first device and / or the second device to perform the following operations.

[0050] The processor (140) may be implemented with a memory that stores data for an algorithm or a program that reproduces the algorithm for controlling the operation of components within the device, and at least one sub-processor (not shown) that performs the aforementioned operation using the data stored in the memory. In this case, the memory and the processor may each be implemented as separate chips. Alternatively, the memory and the processor may be implemented as a single chip.

[0051] Additionally, the processor (140) can control one or a combination of the components described above in order to implement various embodiments according to the present disclosure, which will be described in the drawings below, on the device.

[0052] In one embodiment, the game providing system (100) can receive user information or output game providing information through an input / output module (110), exchange data through a communication module (120), store user information or game information through a memory (130), and process to provide game content suitable for the user through a processor (140), and in the configuration described below, the functions of the input / output module (110), the communication module (120), the memory (130), and the processor (140) can be performed individually, separately, or in combination.

[0053] FIG. 2 is a conceptual diagram illustrating an environment in which the configuration of a tagging-based game providing system (100) that simultaneously provides a plurality of games according to the present disclosure is arranged; FIG. 3 is a block diagram illustrating the server configuration of the game providing system (100) according to the present disclosure; FIG. 4 is a flowchart illustrating an output screen output process according to identification information of the game providing system (100) according to the present disclosure; FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating the tagging process of another game user's same tag reader of the game providing system (100) according to the present disclosure; and FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating a response process according to a game information provision request of the game providing system (100) according to the present disclosure.

[0054] As illustrated in FIG. 2, a tagging-based game providing system (100) that simultaneously provides a plurality of games according to one embodiment of the present disclosure may include a user interface-based input / output device (210) that receives user information, a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag (not shown) that includes a memory that stores identification information corresponding to the user information, a tag reader (222) that contacts the RFID tag to receive the identification information, a mission device (220) that includes a display module (221) that displays at least one game content according to the identification information, a server (230) that receives the identification information from the tag reader (222) and provides the corresponding game content to the display module (221), and at least one processor (140) that controls the operation of the input / output device (210), the RFID tag, the mission device (220), and the server (230).

[0055] In one embodiment, the at least one processor (140) may be configured to distinguish a user based on the identification information received by the tag reader (222), acquire at least one of real-time user data by a preset zone and real-time data by a preset game based on the tag information of the tag reader (222) within a set period, and provide different game content based on the tagged identification information in consideration of the acquired data.

[0056] In one embodiment, a mission device (220) including an input / output device (210), a display module (221), and a tag reader (222) may be placed in a play space (10) and in an area surrounding the play space (10).

[0057] Specifically, referring to FIG. 2, an input / output device (210) may be placed outside the play space (10). Alternatively, an input / output device (210) may be placed inside the play space (10).

[0058] In one embodiment, the input / output device (210) may include a kiosk placed on one side of the space where the mission device (220) is placed, or a user terminal device individually carried by the user.

[0059] The user can receive personal information of the user who will use the play space (10) by using a kiosk or user terminal device, such as a smartphone or mobile device with an application installed, and can select a game to play in the play space (10).

[0060] In one embodiment, when user information including the user's personal information and game information including the type of game selected by the user are determined through the input / output device (210), identification information can be assigned to each user.

[0061] A user tag to which the identification information is assigned can be assigned by matching user information and identification information corresponding to the user information.

[0062] In one embodiment, the user tag may be a radio frequency identification (RFID) tag. The RFID tag may be implemented in various wearable forms. For example, the RFID tag may be a wearable device such as a watch, bracelet, or ring. Or it may be a device in the form of a QR code sticker attached to the skin.

[0063] Accordingly, the RFID tag can be implemented as a wearable device in the form of a watch, bracelet, anklet, or QR code.

[0064] Each user tag may include a memory in which identification information, such as a unique ID, is stored. By contacting each user tag with a tag reader (220), the identification information can be transmitted to the tag reader (220) or the server (230), and corresponding information can be output to the display module (221).

[0065] As an example of one embodiment, referring to FIG. 3, the server (230) may be composed of a plurality of servers and DBs. As illustrated in FIG. 3, the server (230) may include a load balancing (231), an API server (232), a security password authentication server (233), a DB (234), a time series DB (235), and a game API server (236). It may also be connected to a separate server placed externally.

[0066] Load balancing (231) can perform automatic traffic distribution by obtaining data input from an input / output device (210) or a mission device (220) as load data. For example, data such as entry / exit check, coupon usage, unmanned registration, and coin accumulation can be checked at a kiosk, or data such as membership registration, entry reservation, coin accumulation, or history can be checked from a user terminal device.

[0067] The API server (232) is a plurality of API servers, and each distributed traffic can be transmitted to and processed by each API server. Each API server (232) can issue a token that can verify the user and perform data encoding and data decoding on said token. At this time, the token may be issued from a separate security token generation server.

[0068] Additionally, the API server (232) may include a CRUD API. A CRUD API is computer software that performs data management functions such as creating, reading, updating, and deleting data.

[0069] The security password authentication server (233) can receive an encoded token and map it to user information input from an input / output device (210). The user information may be a user name, mobile phone number, mobile device information, etc.

[0070] The DB (234) may include a user DB (2341) that stores a token mapped to user information from a security password authentication server (233), and a game DB (2342) that stores game-related data for providing game information and game content obtained from an API server (232) based on load data. User information may include personal information of a user who actually plays the game, information as a player, activity details, and device information. Game data may store game types, missions according to game types, players, scenes, items, etc.

[0071] The time series DB (235) can store real-time data obtained while playing the current game. For example, real-time user data by zone or real-time data by game can be collected and stored.

[0072] The game API server (236) may be configured as a CURD API or a multiplayer server. The game API server (236) may receive game information such as missions, players, scenes, rewards, and user density from the DB (234) and time-series DB (235) and generate unique missions according to each identification information.

[0073] As an example, with reference to FIG. 4, the at least one processor (140) may perform the step of matching and storing the identification information with the game type input from the input / output device (210) by the server (230) (S410), and providing the next content or acquired score to the display module (221) according to the position of the tag reader (222) to which the RFID tag having the identification information and the preset rule according to the game type is contacted (S420).

[0074] For example, when user information of the first user and the first game are selected and input into the kiosk, which is an input / output device (210), the user information of the first user and the game information can be transmitted to the server (230). The server (230) can match identification information corresponding to the user information and game information.

[0075] The above identification information can be stored in the memory of the RFID tag assigned to the first user.

[0076] Subsequently, when an RFID tag is brought into contact with a tag reader (222) of a mission device (220) placed within the play space (110) as the first user moves, the tag reader (222) that is in contact with the RFID tag can transmit its location and identification information stored in the RFID tag to the server (230).

[0077] The server (230) can calculate a game score corresponding to the identification information by taking into account the location of the tag reader (222), for example, a zone within the play space (10) or a height from the ground, and accumulate it to the existing game score.

[0078] The server (230) can transmit the calculated game score or accumulated score to the display module (221).

[0079] Additionally, the server (230) may be configured to acquire at least one of real-time user data by zone and real-time data by game by zone based on tag information of a tag reader (222) at a specific location within a set period, and to provide different game content according to tagged identification information in consideration of the acquired data.

[0080] For example, if the play space (10) is divided into a first zone (11) and a second zone (12), if the number of times a tag reader (222) located in the first zone (11) is tagged exceeds a preset number, the server (230) may determine that the density of the first zone (11) is high.

[0081] Accordingly, when the server (230) receives identification information that has mostly performed tagging from the tag reader (222) placed in the first zone (11), it can transmit to the display module (221) an output screen that provides a higher score when tagging the tag reader (220) placed in the second zone (12).

[0082] In other words, game scores can be distributed to allow users to be dispersed by considering the density of each area of ​​the play space (10), and game content can be provided to the display module (221) to perform tagging on the tag reader (220) with low density.

[0083] Alternatively, by collecting real-time data for each game, if the play space (10) where a specific game is played corresponds to a specific area, for example, a first zone (11), and the number of times an RFID tag having identification information matching the specific game is tagged exceeds a preset number, the server (230) may determine that the density of the first zone (11) is high.

[0084] Accordingly, the server (230) can collect users by zone or users by game in real time and calculate game scores that are rewarded differently accordingly and output them to the display module (221).

[0085] Additionally, as an embodiment, the tag reader (220) may be a plurality of tag readers spaced apart and distributed within a predetermined space.

[0086] For example, each tag reader (220) may be spaced apart at equal intervals, or spaced apart by irregularly adjusting the height or dispersion based on difficulty.

[0087] In one embodiment, the display module (221) may provide information about the status of mission completion according to the rules of the game as game content, at least one of video, vibration, and sound.

[0088] For example, when an RFID tag is tagged on a tag reader (222) placed together with a display module (221), the identification information of the RFID tag, the tag time, and the ID information of the display module (221) are transmitted to a server (230), and output information sent from the server (230) can be displayed on the display module (221). At this time, depending on the identification information of the RFID tag, the tag time, and the ID information of the display module (221), the completion status of the game mission can be displayed as video, vibration, or sound.

[0089] Alternatively, the tag reader (220) can be attached to various surfaces that make up the play space (10), such as the ceiling, side, and floor surfaces.

[0090] Meanwhile, as an example embodiment, at least one processor (140) may be configured such that when a first game is selected by a first user from the input / output device (210), a second game different from the first game is selected by a second user, and the first RFID tag of the first user and the second RFID tag of the second user are tagged on the same tag reader (222), the server (230) calculates the next content or score of the first game according to the rules of the first game, calculates the next content or score of the second game according to the rules of the second game, outputs the next content or score of the first game to the display module (221), and then outputs the next content or score of the second game in sequence.

[0091] As illustrated in FIG. 5, the first user and the second user can register user information in the input / output device (210) and obtain a first RFID tag in which the first user's first identification information is stored and a second RFID tag in which the second user's second identification information is stored.

[0092] Then, when the first user's first RFID tag and the second user's second RFID tag are tagged on the same mission device (220) in the play space (10), the display module (221) must output different game content according to the game and identification information input into the input / output device (210), and can output different screens depending on the tagging of the first RFID tag and the tagging of the second RFID tag.

[0093] For example, if a point accumulation game through tagging is input as a first game, when the first RFID tag is tagged to the mission device (220), points are added to the corresponding identification information, and the display module (221) can output a screen or sound indicating that the first RFID tag has been tagged.

[0094] Alternatively, as a second game, if a hidden character search game via tagging is input, the default output screen of the display module (221) is a question mark, and when the second RFID tag is tagged to the mission device (220), the output screen of the display module (221) changes and a hidden image can be displayed. The hidden image may be a random image among preset images or a specific image determined for each display module (221), and if all specific images or specific characters are tagged, points are added to the corresponding identification information, and the display module (221) can display the specific image or specific character obtained by tagging the second RFID tag.

[0095] When the first RFID tag and the second RFID tag are tagged on the same tag reader (222), a screen indicating that the first RFID tag has been tagged is displayed sequentially, and then a screen indicating that the second RFID tag has been tagged is displayed, changing from a question mark to a specific character.

[0096] The server (230) can transmit game progress information and output information according to the rules of the game to the display module (221) according to the identification information of the tagged tag, and even the same tag reader (222) can output different screens in sequence according to the tagging order.

[0097] Additionally, as an embodiment, at least one processor (140) may be configured to transmit game progress information matched with the identification information to the kiosk or user terminal device according to a user request input by the server (230) to the kiosk or user terminal device.

[0098] As illustrated in FIG. 6, when a first user inputs a request for game progress information into a kiosk or user terminal device, which is an input / output device (210), the API server (232) that receives the request for game progress information can search for and obtain matching user information and game information from the DB (234) and transmit them back to the input / output device (210).

[0099] A connection can be established between the input / output device (210) and the server (230) so that the user can check whether the game mission has been completed or the progress of the mission, or check the accumulated game score.

[0100] Accordingly, at least one processor (140) may be configured to determine game content to be provided to the display module (221) by analyzing tagging information tagged by the RFID tag matched with the identification information of the server (230), and the display module (221) may output different screens even if tagging occurs on the same tag reader (222).

[0101] Through this, multiple games suitable for various users' tastes can be provided simultaneously based on the same mission device (220) in a limited space, thereby providing cost and space reduction and increased play efficiency.
