BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Hereinafter, embodiments of a legitimate user determination device, a legitimate user determination method, a legitimate user determination program, and a user terminal program according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

FIG. 1 is a diagram schematically showing the overall configuration of a route bus operation system as an example to which an embodiment of a regular user determination device according to the present invention is applied. In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a vehicle-mounted device (authorized user determination device, determination device), 2 a user terminal, 3 a management server, 100 a route bus, and 200 a user. That is, FIG. 1 shows how a user 200 gets on a route bus (bus) 100 at a stop A and gets off the bus 100 at a stop B in a route bus operation system (route bus boarding/alighting system). .

In the following, a fixed-route bus operating system will be mainly described as an example, but the present invention is not limited to application to a fixed-route bus operating system. It can be widely applied as an authorized user determination system for processing boarding and alighting, or entry and exit (participation) of various event venues and public facilities.

As shown in FIG. 1, the vehicle-mounted device 1 has a vehicle-mounted device main body (determination unit, computer) 11 , a camera (information acquisition unit) 12 and a communication unit (first information transmission unit, wireless communication unit) 13 . Here, the user 200 carries a terminal (user terminal) 2 such as a smart phone or a tablet equipped with a display 21 from the time the user 200 gets on the bus 100 from the bus stop A until the time the user 200 gets off the bus 100 at the bus stop B. and

The vehicle-mounted device main body 11 is a vehicle-mounted computer including an arithmetic processing unit, memory, various interfaces, and the like. Moreover, it is also possible to apply a notebook computer etc. as the user terminal 2, or to apply a smart phone, a tablet, etc. as the vehicle-mounted device 1 (vehicle-mounted device main body 11). In this case, for example, as the camera 12 of the vehicle-mounted device 1, a camera such as a web camera or a tablet may be used.

First, when the user 200 gets on the bus 100 from the bus stop A, the user 200 opens the traffic ticket (passenger ticket) screen of the application on the user terminal 2 such as a smartphone (i.e., when using the route bus ), receive boarding information (stop information: entrance ID (identification)) and random number information (first authentication information) of the bus stop A to board, which are transmitted from the on-board device 1, and use the user terminal 2 Store in memory (step Sa). Here, since it is possible to determine whether or not the user 200 is an authorized user only with the random number information, the information (data) transmitted from the vehicle-mounted device 1 to the user terminal 2 may be only the random number information. It should be noted that the user 200 may activate the application for using the route bus before or after boarding the bus 100 . In addition, the display 21 of the user terminal 2 that has started the application can be configured not to display the transportation ticket, or to display a plurality of transportation tickets and allow the user 200 to select one of them. can be configured to Furthermore, as a method for the vehicle-mounted device 1 to acquire the information of the stop, for example, the location information of GPS (Global Positioning System), wireless communication from the bus stop, or the stop designation button of the vehicle-mounted device 1 by the crew (driver etc.) and the like.

The random number information is generated, for example, by a random number generator provided in the vehicle-mounted device main body 11 , stored in the memory of the vehicle-mounted device main body 11 , and transmitted from the communication unit 13 to the user terminal 2 . The random number information stored in the memory of the vehicle-mounted device main body 11 is used when the user 200 gets off the bus 100, as will be described later.

Here, for example, the same random number information may be used for one operation from the first bus stop to the last bus stop (from the first bus stop to the last bus stop), and the random number information may be changed for each bus operation. It is also possible to change the random number information for each bus stop in each service. However, when changing the random number information for each bus stop, it is necessary to store the random number information for all the bus stops in the memory of the vehicle-mounted device main body 11 . Also, the random number generator and the random number information do not necessarily have to be random numbers. For example, it is possible to randomly generate different information for each service or each stop, and treat the irregular information as random number information. Any available information (first authentication information) can be applied.

The random number information transmitted from the vehicle-mounted device 1 (communication unit 13) to the user terminal 2 can be encrypted by applying, for example, a common key cryptosystem or a public key cryptosystem. It is also possible to strengthen the wiretapping prevention function for a third party. However, when the random number information is encrypted and transmitted to the user terminal 2, when the user 200 gets off the vehicle, the random number information is decrypted and then collated with the random number information of the vehicle-mounted device 1.例文帳に追加Needless to say, various known techniques can be applied to such changes and modifications.

As described above, when the user 200 gets on the bus from the bus stop A, he/she opens the application for using the route bus, receives the random number information from the on-vehicle device 1 and the boarding information of the bus stop A, and the user terminal 2, a two-dimensional code (image information, identification information) is displayed together with the ticket to be used (step Sb). That is, the user terminal 2 generates image information based on the random number information sent from the vehicle-mounted device 1 via the communication unit 13 and the boarding information of the stop A, and displays the image information on the display 21 . Here, the user 200 can confirm the image information displayed on the display 21 of the user terminal 2 when boarding the vehicle.

In addition, as the communication unit 13, using sound wave communication, Bluetooth (registered trademark), Wi-Fi (registered trademark), visible light communication, NFC (registered trademark) (Near Field Communication (registered trademark)), etc. The random number information and boarding information of the stop A can be transmitted to the user terminal 2 of the person 200 . Although any frequency may be used for the sonic communication, it is preferable to use a high frequency sonic communication that is inaudible to the human ear. As used herein, the term "high frequency sonic communication" shall mean sonic communication at frequencies between 18 kHz and 20 kHz. Of course, this sonic communication may be an ultrasonic communication that is inaudible to the human ear.

Next, the bus 100 departs from the bus stop A where the user 200 boarded and arrives at the bus stop B where the user 200 plans to get off. When the bus 100 arrives at the bus stop B, the user 200 causes the display 21 of the user terminal 2 to display the image information generated based on the stop information and the random number information transmitted from the onboard device 1 when getting on the bus 100, and displays the image information on the display 21 of the user terminal 2. The image is read by the camera 12 of the device 1 (step Sc). That is, the camera 12 of the vehicle-mounted device 1 reads the image information displayed on the display 21 of the user terminal 2, and the vehicle-mounted device main body 11 reads the information about the bus stop A where the user 200 boarded the bus 100 from the image information. and obtains (extracts) data such as random number information.

Here, the image information displayed on the display 21 of the user terminal 2 is not limited to the stop information of the bus stop A where the user 200 got on the bus 100 and the random number information. ) and user ID such as gender, or if you have purchased a transportation ticket (commuter pass, unlimited ride ticket, etc.) in advance, include various information (use conditions) such as the expiration date of the transportation ticket. can also In addition, the image information (identification information) displayed on the display 21 of the user terminal 2 is not limited to a two-dimensional code, but a one-dimensional code (bar code), an automatic recognition code using color printing, or , various modifications and variations are possible depending on the applied system. Furthermore, the image information is not limited to one image (single image information), and may be a plurality of images (a plurality of image information).

The vehicle-mounted device 1 (the vehicle-mounted device main body 11) acquires the stop information and random number information of the stop A where the user 200 got on from the image information of the display 21 of the user terminal 2 by the camera 12, and the bus stop B where the user gets off. Information and random number information stored in the memory of the main body 11 of the vehicle-mounted device (random number information that changes for each service or for each stop in each service), etc. are referred to perform disembarkation processing.

This process of getting off the vehicle refers to, for example, random number information obtained from image information displayed on the display 21 of the user terminal 2 carried by the user 200 and random number information stored in the memory of the vehicle-mounted device main body 11. This includes determining whether the user 200 is an authorized user. Here, as the getting off process, it goes without saying that the fare adjustment process in the current route bus operation system, for example, can be applied as it is.

Further, for example, when the user 200 has purchased a transportation ticket in advance, it is determined whether or not the user 200 is an authorized user by referring to (comparing) the expiration date of the transportation ticket with the current date and time. Judgments can also be made. When it is determined that the user 200 is not an authorized user by judging whether or not the user is an authorized user, for example, the vehicle-mounted device 1 can issue an alert by sound or light.

Furthermore, if the image information displayed on the display 21 of the user terminal 2 includes a uniquely determined user ID, for example, the image information of any one of two or more malicious users riding together may be duplicated. Even when shared, the vehicle-mounted device 1 can recognize that the image information includes the same user ID and detect fraud. Furthermore, if the image information displayed on the display 21 of the user terminal 2 includes the expiration date of the transportation ticket, the vehicle-mounted device 1 can detect whether or not the expiration date is illegal. This is the same for transportation tickets that have a use start date and time.

Then, when the bus 100 completes one operation or one day's operation, a wireless LAN (Local Area Network) such as Wi-Fi (registered trademark) is used to record the boarding and alighting logs of regular users in the operation. or via the memory device storing the boarding/alighting log, that is, via the information transmitting section (second information transmitting section), to the management server 3 (step Sd).

As described above, various toll settlement processes can be applied as alighting process. Even if there is a risk that the user terminal cannot connect to the network when using transportation due to the existence of areas with poor quality, it is possible to determine whether the user is an authorized user and to check whether the user is an authorized user or not, based on the boarding/disembarking log. It becomes possible to apply the charge settlement process.

2 and 3 are flow charts for explaining an example of the processing of the user terminal and the vehicle-mounted device in the route bus operation system shown in FIG. Here, the flowcharts shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 show the processes of the vehicle-mounted device 1 and the user terminal 2 according to the flow of time. The processing of the vehicle-mounted device 1 corresponds to the authorized user judgment program of the authorized user judgment device (1) in the route bus operation system (authorized user judgment system), and the processing of the user terminal 2 corresponds to the route bus operation It corresponds to a program (application) of the user terminal 2 in the system.

In addition to the functions described below, the application of the user terminal 2 has, for example, a function of registering an account and a function of purchasing transportation tickets (such as commuter passes and unlimited ride tickets). preferable. Further, it is preferable that the user 200 has already completed account registration, for example, and that the user information of the management server 3 and the user terminal 2 is synchronized and stored in their respective memories. . In the following description, the user 200 has already purchased a transportation ticket, and the management server 3 and the user terminal 2 are synchronized with the transportation ticket information (for example, expiration date, section, etc.). and stored in each memory.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, when an example of processing (regular user determination program) at the time of boarding and getting off in the route bus operation system starts, the vehicle-mounted device 1 first, in step S1, before the first train Random number information is generated, and in step S2 the generated random number information is stored in the memory. Here, the random number information is generated, for example, by a random number generator provided in the vehicle-mounted device body 11 of the vehicle-mounted device 1 and stored in the memory of the vehicle-mounted device body 11 . In addition, the random number information uses the same random number from the first train to the final destination, i.e., for one train service, but this random number information can be used by generating different random numbers for each stop, as described above. That's right.

In step S2, the generated random number information is stored in the memory of the vehicle-mounted device main body 11. This is for matching with the random number information stored in the user terminal 2 in step S17, which will be described later. The vehicle-mounted device main body 11 (the vehicle-mounted device 1) needs to store the random number information in the memory at least up to the end point. When generating different random number information for each stop, all random number information corresponding to each stop is stored in the memory of the vehicle-mounted device main body 11 .

Next, in step S3, when the route bus (bus) 100 departs and stops at stop A, the process advances to step S4 to acquire information on the stop A, that is, information such as the ID of the stop A. Here, as a method of acquiring the information of the bus stop, for example, based on the GPS position information provided in the vehicle-mounted device 1, or the device (eg, Bluetooth (registered trademark) or Wi-Fi (registered trademark)) placed at the bus stop (trademark), etc.), or by operating the stop designation button of the on-vehicle device 1 by the bus driver, etc. (staff member), etc. You can get boarding information.

Further, proceeding to step S5, the vehicle-mounted device 1 transmits the random number information stored in the memory of the vehicle-mounted device main body 11 and the information of the stop A ( boarding information, entrance ID). Here, for the communication unit 13, for example, wireless communication means such as sound wave communication, Bluetooth (registered trademark), Wi-Fi (registered trademark), visible light communication, and NFC (registered trademark) can be applied.

On the other hand, in the user terminal 2, when the user 200 carries the user terminal 2 such as a smart phone and gets on the bus 100 from the stop A in step S6, the user terminal 2 enters the bus 100 with the user 200. will move. Then, proceeding to step S7, when the user 200 opens (starts) the application of the user terminal 2 (application program of the route bus operation system), in step S8, the user terminal 2 The random number information and the information of the stop A (boarding information of the stop A) transmitted from the communication unit 13 by wireless communication are acquired.

Here, the user 200 may open the application of the user terminal 2 inside the bus 100 after getting on the bus 100, but may open the application before the user 200 gets on the bus 100. . In addition, when the application of the route bus operation system is provided to the user 200 and the user 200 installs the application on the user terminal 2 and uses it, for example, when the user 200 opens the application, the user Random number information and boarding information of stop A can be automatically obtained by giving permission in advance to receive sound waves from the communication unit 13 using sound wave communication using the microphone of the terminal 2. Become. That is, when the user 200 starts the application, it is preferable to give the authority to use the microphone of the user terminal 2 to receive sound waves from the communication unit 13 by sound wave communication in advance.

By the way, when the present invention is applied to a route bus operation system, it is preferable to apply ultrasonic communication, for example, as the communication unit 13 of the vehicle-mounted device 1. As a result, the presence in a closed space such as the inside of the bus 100 is possible. The random number information and boarding information of the stop A can be transmitted by wireless communication by the communication unit 13 of the on-vehicle device 1 only to the user terminal 2 that does so. That is, when ultrasonic communication is applied, the ultrasonic waves from the communication unit (ultrasonic wireless communication unit) 13 are controlled, for example, by the number and arrangement of speakers that output ultrasonic waves, and the volume output from each speaker. By controlling, it is possible to easily transmit the random number information and boarding information of the stop A by radio only to the user terminal 2 existing inside the bus 100 . It should be noted that it is also possible to control and optimize the number, arrangement, volume, etc. of speakers for each vehicle such as a train in which a plurality of vehicles are connected.

Of course, it is also possible to apply Bluetooth (registered trademark) as the communication unit 13 . In this case, when the user 200 installs the application of the bus operation system on the user terminal 2 and uses it, for example, when the user 200 opens the application, the Bluetooth (registered trademark) function of the user terminal 2 is activated. Random number information and boarding information of stop A can be automatically obtained by giving authorization in advance to start up and establish a Bluetooth (registered trademark) connection with the communication unit 13 . The communication unit 13 is not limited to sound wave communication and Bluetooth (registered trademark), and various wireless communication methods such as Wi-Fi (registered trademark), visible light communication, and NFC (registered trademark) can be applied. It can be done as described above.

In the above, the communication unit 13 of the vehicle-mounted device 1 may continuously transmit the random number information and the boarding information of the bus stop A until the bus 100 arrives at the next stop after the bus stop A. It may be stopped after a predetermined time or distance has passed since then. For such specifications, optimum ones are appropriately selected depending on the system to which the present invention is applied.

Returning to the flow chart again, in step S9, the user terminal 2 adds, for example, user information, boarding date and time information, and expiration date information to the acquired random number information and boarding information of the stop A, and converts them into image information. . That is, the user terminal 2 indicates the user information of each user 200 and the date and time of boarding in addition to the random number information received from the vehicle-mounted device 1 (communication unit 13) and boarding information of the bus stop A (bus stop information). Boarding date and time information (entrance date and time information), transportation ticket expiration information (transportation ticket information), etc. are converted into at least one piece of image information. Specifically, when converting image information, for example, a method of concatenating the above-described various information to be included in the image information as one character string separated by commas and encoding it into a two-dimensional code can be applied. Image information to be converted is not limited to a two-dimensional code, and may be a one-dimensional code (bar code), an automatic recognition code using color, or the like.

Next, in step S10, the image information converted (generated) in step S9 is displayed on the display 21 (application screen) of the user terminal 2. FIG. Thereby, the user 200 recognizes that the boarding process has been completed. Needless to say, the user 200 does not need to open the application until the next stop to get off, and can use various functions of the user terminal 2 such as a smart phone.

Then, in step S11, the bus 100 (onboard device 1) departs from the bus stop A, proceeds to step S13, and reaches and stops at the bus stop B where the user 200 gets off. acquires information on the stop B where the bus 100 has stopped. Here, the acquisition of the information on the bus stop B by the vehicle-mounted device 1 is the same as the acquisition of the information on the bus stop A by the vehicle-mounted device 1 described above. It should be noted that when the bus 100 arrives at the stop B, that is, when the bus 100 arrives at the stop B where the user 200 is scheduled to get off, as in step S12, the user 200 on the bus 100 carries a mobile phone. The user terminal 2 also moves to the stop B.

Further, in step S<b>14 , the user 200 holds the user terminal 2 whose image information is displayed on the display 21 over the camera 12 of the vehicle-mounted device 1 . That is, on the display 21 of the user terminal 2, the random number information received from the communication unit 13 when the user 200 gets on the bus 100, the boarding information of the bus stop A, the user information, the boarding date and time information, and the transportation ticket. Image information such as a two-dimensional code obtained by converting the expiration date information and the like is displayed, and the image information is read by the camera 12 of the vehicle-mounted device 1. - 特許庁Here, the image information may be displayed on the display 21 of the user terminal 2 by, for example, the user 200 opening an application of the route bus operation system. The information may be displayed automatically using a function such as NFC (registered trademark) or visible light communication provided near the camera 12 .

In this manner, the vehicle-mounted device 1 (the vehicle-mounted device main body 11) obtains the random number information of the user 200 who is about to get off the bus 100, the boarding information of the bus stop A, the user information, the boarding date and time information, and the expiration date of the transportation ticket. Information and the like can be acquired, and the information is used to determine whether or not the user 200 is an authorized user.

That is, in step S17, the random number information stored in the memory of the vehicle-mounted device main body 11 and the random number information extracted from the image information displayed on the display 21 of the user terminal 2 are referenced (compared) to determine whether they match. judge. In step S17, if it is determined that the random number information stored in the memory of the vehicle-mounted device main body 11 and the random number information extracted from the image information do not match (mismatch), the process proceeds to step S18, and the user 200 is illegal (regular use). If it is determined that they match, the process advances to step S19.

In step S19, the current date and time information is compared (referred to) with the expiration date information (transport ticket information) of the transportation ticket extracted from the image information displayed on the display 21 of the user terminal 2, and the current date and time is determined. It is determined whether or not the information is included in the usage period information of the transportation ticket. In step S19, if it is determined that the current date and time information is not included in the usage time limit information of the transportation ticket (exceeds), the process proceeds to step S20, where the user 200 determines that it is illegal and includes it. , the process proceeds to step S21.

Here, for example, it is possible to determine whether boarding information for bus stop A and getting off information for bus stop B are included in the usage section information of the transportation ticket. It is also possible to It should be noted that such determinations can be applied in various combinations. is preferred. If it is determined in steps S18 and S20 that the user 200 is unauthorized (not an authorized user), the vehicle-mounted device 1 issues an alert by sound (for example, buzzer or alarm chime), light, or the like.

In step S21, the user 200 is permitted to get off the vehicle, and the user 200 is notified of this permission to get off by means of display on the vehicle-mounted device 1, sound (for example, permission sound), lighting of lights, or the like. That is, in step S22, the user terminal 2 (user 200) is judged by the vehicle-mounted device body (determination unit) 11 of the vehicle-mounted device 1. Get off at As described above, when the user 200 gets off the bus 100, for example, it is possible to apply the fare adjustment process in the currently used route bus operation system as it is.

In step S24, the boarding/alighting log of a plurality of users 200 acquired by the vehicle-mounted device 1 during one operation or one-day operation of the bus 100 is stored in a wireless LAN such as Wi-Fi (registered trademark) or its boarding/alighting log. A process of transmitting the log to the management server 3 via the memory device (second information transmitting unit) storing the log is shown. Here, as the boarding/alighting log, for each user 200, random number information, information on bus stop A (boarding information), information on bus stop B (alighting information), boarding date/time information (entrance date/time information), and alighting date/time information, etc. include.

Furthermore, by transmitting user information such as each user's account etc. to the management server as a boarding/alighting log, it is possible, for example, to determine which stop a user who uses a free ticket such as a one-day ticket gets on from which bus stop. It is also possible to acquire various information related to getting on and off the bus in relation to conditions such as whether the bus got off at a bus stop, the time zone when the user got on and off, and the gender and age group of the user. This is not limited to transportation tickets such as fixed-route bus commuter passes and unlimited ride tickets, but also getting on and off vehicles on public transportation, entering and leaving (exiting) various event venues and public facilities, etc. It is also possible to acquire various information in

As shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B, the image information displayed on the display 21 of the user terminal 2 includes first image information 21a, second image information 21b and third image information 21c. include. Here, the first image information 21a can be, for example, an image for making the user 200 recognize that the activated application is an application for using a route bus.

The second image information 21b may be, for example, a two-dimensional code image based on random number information, and the third image information 21c may be a two-dimensional code image based on the boarding information of the bus stop A (the ID of the bus stop A). . The second image information 21b is a two-dimensional code image based on the random number information and boarding information of the stop A, and the third image information 21c is a two-dimensional code image based on the user ID and the expiration date of the transportation ticket. It can also be an image. Further, it goes without saying that these pieces of image information can be displayed on the display 21 of the user terminal 2 as one image.

Furthermore, if the vehicle-mounted device 1 (vehicle-mounted device main body 11) has a function of OCR (Optical Character Recognition/Reader) processing of an image captured by the camera 12, for example, the second image information 21b may be a traffic ticket. It is also possible for the vehicle-mounted device main body 11 to acquire information such as the expiration date of the transportation ticket by displaying the expiration date, etc. as it is in numbers, etc., and performing OCR processing on the displayed numbers, etc. Of course, for example, as the first image information 21a to notify the user 200, it is also possible to display, for example, the fact that it is a one-day ticket, or the available period, or the like. As described above, the image information displayed on the display 21 of the user terminal 2 can be changed and modified in various ways.

FIG. 5 is a diagram for explaining another example to which the embodiment of the authorized user determination method according to the present invention is applied. 10 shows how the image information displayed on the display device 14 of the vehicle-mounted device 1 is compared (referenced) to determine whether or not the user 200 is an authorized user.

For example, if it is preferable to intervene the crew member 300 instead of the vehicle-mounted device 1 itself to determine whether the user 200 is a regular user, the display device 14 of the vehicle-mounted device 1 displays The driver 300 visually confirms the image information 14a based on the random number information and the image information 21d based on the random number information displayed on the display 21 of the user terminal 2 when the user 200 gets off the bus 100. can also

In the example shown in FIG. 5, the image information 14a and 21d based on the random number information are displayed in different colors, and the crew member 300 confirms them by the different colors. Specifically, for example, random numbers (random number information) from 0 to 255 are used as RGB values, and a square image prepared in advance is colored with the RGB values. The color of the square image displayed at 21 can be compared and determined. In this case, the display device 14 of the vehicle-mounted device 1 and the display 21 of the user terminal 2 display different colors (color temperature, etc.). The crew member 300 may compare the colors of the two square images displayed on the display device 14 of the vehicle-mounted device 1 and the display 21 of the user terminal 2 to make the determination. Alternatively, as image information, simple shapes such as circles, rectangles, and triangles can be used instead of colors, or characters (character strings) can be used as they are.

In the example shown in FIG. 5, for example, when it is desired to determine whether or not the user 200 is an authorized user by the vehicle-mounted device 1 instead of the crew member 300, the camera 12 of the vehicle-mounted device 1 is used. The color and shape of the square image displayed on the display 21 of the user's terminal 2 are collated by the vehicle-mounted device body (computer, etc.) 11 of the vehicle-mounted device 1 and determined.
