The prior art is an environment in which a car driver arrives at a moving destination and has to find a parking lot and park it directly. Most of the cases generally have a considerable distance from the moving purpose business place. There are also many social costs. This does not look like it will be easily resolved even in the situation where autonomous vehicles are commercialized, but it is likely to get worse. This situation will become an unnecessary barrier to the commercialization of autonomous vehicles.

According to the present invention, when the driver or passenger gets off the vehicle after arriving at the destination, the autonomous driving instructs the vehicle to find the nearest parking space and park the vehicle. We intend to solve this problem by developing an unmanned parking management system and providing it as a service.

In addition, the conventional technology for sharing a vehicle or using a rental car uses a method in which a vehicle rental user moves to a parking location of the vehicle, takes over the vehicle, and returns it to the first rental location after use. This has a problem of using unnecessary pickup and return times for using the vehicle as well as paying the fee. there is.

The present invention improves the existing method of P2P (one-to-one) with the user for the vehicle of a rental car or vehicle sharing provider, and processes the vehicle resource POOL use method in the service platform system in the M2M (many-to-many) method, one-way, round-trip to the moving destination We intend to solve this problem by developing a service so that the whole country can be used in a relay method regardless of the country.

The present invention as a means for solving the problem

First, we present a method and system for providing an unmanned parking lot service exclusively for autonomous vehicles so that users who drive autonomous vehicles can efficiently use parking spaces after arriving at their destination.

The method and system for providing unmanned parking service dedicated to autonomous vehicles is based on the premise that the installation of parking facility space is separate from the present invention, and matches each autonomous vehicle user's parking space rental request registration to match the optimal autonomous vehicle parking space A server and program to do this, a user terminal and an app program for each user to request a parking service, and an API program that wirelessly provides instructions to the user's self-driving car for a parking space according to the server's request. can

Each user uses a user terminal to request a parking space service. When a user designates a destination in advance or requests a service at the destination after moving, the user terminal transmits the request information to the server.

The server receives the requested information from the user terminal, and searches and selects it to provide parking space information by finding a dedicated parking lot for autonomous vehicles within the shortest distance and the shortest time. The server wirelessly transmits spatial information data so that the autonomous vehicle can move to a selected parking space.

The autonomous vehicle receives spatial data, moves to a dedicated parking lot, and parks until the driver or passenger's visit ends. Configure a method and system for providing unmanned parking service for autonomous vehicles that automatically terminates the service.

Second, the service system of the present invention applies the rental car pool use method to design a parking space for autonomous vehicles as a movement base, and users can share or rent a vehicle by linking the base to the destination movement center rather than the vehicle center. We propose a service provision method and business model.

When designing this service system, develop it as a service platform, install a dedicated parking space facility for autonomous vehicles, and provide a series of services related to membership registration, space information setting, and parking fee collection, settlement, and deposit for users who want to run a parking space rental business. We present a business model that provides service work as a service platform.

In addition, to users who want to rent or share an autonomous vehicle, we propose a business model that provides a service platform to operate a profitable business by providing a series of services related to membership registration, vehicle information setting, and vehicle usage fee settlement. .

Third, by applying the Decentralized Autonomous Management Organization (DAO) method as a means of solving the task, revenue is automatically distributed to parking space providers, autonomous vehicle providers, platform system service providers, and external linkage service providers through a fee distribution system agreed in advance. We present a business model that is provided as a service platform to which the service fee settlement management method is applied.

Existing lack of parking space is a chronic traffic environment problem in large cities. If self-driving cars are widely distributed, in actual operating environments, the driver finds a parking space and parks it by hand or in a separate space in a remote area, a waste of time. And the problem of lack of parking space will intensify.

In addition, as autonomous vehicles begin to walk on the streets, it is expected that the inefficiency of road use such as competition for parking space or vacant vehicle operation will increase.

An unmanned parking management system and service platform dedicated to autonomous vehicles can solve this problem, and it can optimize and use a small parking space compared to the existing one, and reduce insufficient parking space and tolerance operation to a minimum to efficiently use road and urban space. can be used as

In addition, it is possible to provide the resident's idle parking space as a paid service during the day, contributing to the efficient sharing of idle resources and the creation of incidental revenue for the provider.

By utilizing this service platform, a service system is provided to small self-employed parking space providers and self-driving car sharing providers who want ancillary income or a livelihood, thereby providing a business model that can easily create a profitable business without large investment. .

In general, there is a problem in that a large amount of money and time must be invested in developing and constructing a service system, providing it as a business service, and operating and maintaining it until the stage of commercialization. However, according to the present invention, as a way to solve the problem, by introducing and applying the Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) method to the invention and developing a platform service system, it is possible to easily invest in costs and commercialization funds to achieve practical use. has the effect of making it possible.
