Abstract

In this paper, we design and implement a product information guidance system Based on BLE beacons. This system is designed to provide various functions such as contactless entrance service through mobile ticket, seat guidance service, event push service, content push service, and public service. This system consists of three modules: a beacon recognition module, a server linkage module, and a content transmission module. The beacon recognition module implements a function of transmitting a specific ID of a nearby beacon when a customer with a smartphone approaches the available service area. The server linkage module recognizes the beacon ID value, transfers it to the server, and implements the function to check the location of the server having the ID. The content transmission module implements a function of transmitting event or service information set at a corresponding location to a smartphone. The beacon-based product information guidance system implemented in this paper has the advantage of being able to quickly and easily implement various product information guidance systems.

본 논문에서는 BLE 비콘을 기반으로 하는 제품 정보 안내 시스템을 설계하고 구현한다. 이 시스템은 모바일 티켓을 통한 비접촉 입장 서비스, 좌석 안내 서비스, 이벤트 Push 서비스, 콘텐츠 Push 서비스, 공공 서비스 등의 다양한 기능을 제공하도록 설계한다. 이 시스템은 3개 모듈인 비콘 인식 모듈, 서버 연동 모듈, 콘텐츠 전송 모듈로 구성된다. 비콘 인식 모듈은 스마트 폰을 가진 고객이 가용 서비스 영역에 접근하면 근접한 비콘의 특정 ID를 전송하는 기능을 구현한다. 서버 연동 모듈은 비콘 ID 값을 인식하여, 서버로 전달하고, ID를 가지고 있는 서버 위치를 확인하는 기능을 구현한다. 콘텐츠 전송 모듈은 해당 위치에 설정된 이벤트나 서비스 정보를 스마트 폰으로 전송하는 기능을 구현한다. 본 논문에서 구현한 비콘 기반의 제품 정보 안내 시스템을 활용하면 다양한 제품 정보 안내 시스템을 빠르고, 쉽게 구현할 수 있다는 장점이 있다.
