Description

   Method for establishing virtual entrance coordinates for community group data   

The invention relates to a method for establishing virtual entry coordinates for community group data. In particular, after a cloud server receives a setting instruction from a first user device for a community group data, the method can be based on the coordinate data in the setting data. , Which is recorded as a virtual entry coordinate of the community group data, so that when a second user device logs in to the cloud server and sends a map check instruction, the cloud server can connect the virtual entry coordinate and the community The group data is transmitted to the second user device, so that it can display an entry mark corresponding to one of the virtual entry coordinates on the map screen.

According to the increasing popularity of smart phones, "instant messaging software" has become an indispensable important communication tool in people's lives. For example, all people can communicate with each other, transfer electronic files, voice calls, and multi-party conferences. Instant messaging software is easy to implement, and the current instant messaging software is even more controversial. Common ones include Line, WeChat, Skype, M +, Whatsapp, WeChat, etc., and other such instant messaging software (known as APP on mobile devices) In order to win more users and increase market share, the developers of the development industry have racked their brains to develop more unique technologies and user experiences that are different from other industries in order to account for the fierce market competition. Go ahead.

In the process of long-term development of cloud services and network communication technology, the inventor found that consumers' expectations for instant messaging software are not limited to "communications", but also hope to integrate "community" functions, such as: Establish chat rooms with specific hobbies (such as movies, comics, sports, etc.) to host or participate in the same type of events. However, since the current instant messaging software is not designed for the function of "searching for community groups such as chat rooms", so if a general user has some kind of community (such as movie discussions, shopping information, etc.) Interest, search results often flood the ad community with too many ads, making it impossible to quickly select communities that truly meet your interests.

In addition, with the development of Augmented Reality (AR) technology in recent years, many video games have been combined with AR technology to allow users to have a real-life experience. The inventor has therefore considered whether Can the social functions of instant messaging software be combined with AR technology, on the one hand, it can increase the variability in use, on the other hand, it can also use AR technology to increase the authenticity and regional relevance of social interaction? Therefore, how to improve the community management function of the existing instant messaging software to design a method for setting, managing, and displaying the combination of the community with geographic coordinates has become an important issue to be solved by the present invention.

In view of the fact that instant messaging software is not designed for the function of "searching for chat groups and other community groups", which makes it impossible to make full use of the social functions of instant messaging software. The inventor, with years of practical experience, After several studies, tests and simulations, a method of establishing virtual entry coordinates for community group data of the present invention is finally designed, which can greatly improve the functions of instant messaging software and give users a user experience.

An object of the present invention is to provide a method for establishing virtual portal coordinates for community group data. The method is applied to a network system, and includes a cloud server, a first user device, and a plurality of second user devices. ; At least one first user data and a plurality of second user data are stored in the cloud database of the cloud server, and the cloud server receives one login data from each of the user devices, and judges the login data and each When the user data matches, the cloud server allows each user device to log in to the cloud server. The method is to enable the cloud server to perform the following steps: first, the cloud server can receive the first user device A setup instruction is sent to create a community group data in the cloud database. The community group data includes at least a public information, a private information and a member information, and the cloud server can User data is stored in the member information of the community group data; 嗣, when the first user device logs in to the cloud server (eg, open a instant messaging APP), transmitting the community group data to the first user device; receiving a setting instruction from the first user device, the setting instruction corresponds to the community group data and includes a target data; according to The setting instruction stores the coordinate data into the community group data to become a virtual portal coordinate; after the virtual portal coordinate is set, when the second user device logs in to the cloud server in the future, the cloud The server can receive a map check instruction from the second user device; and transmit the virtual entry coordinates and public information of the community group data to the second user device, so that the second user device can display a map screen ( (E.g., a flat map or augmented reality screen) displays an entrance mark, and the display position of the entrance mark corresponds to the virtual entrance coordinate and the current geographic coordinate of the second user device. In this way, users can easily, intuitively and interestingly explore the relevant community group information in the surrounding area by browsing the map.

"Community group data" may include chat rooms, message boards, discussion groups, blog spaces, or interactive store websites, etc., that is, different users can A set of data databases that send text or image messages to the cloud, allowing other users to browse and respond. Please refer to FIG. 1. The method of the present invention is applied to a network system 1. The network system 1 includes a cloud server 13, a first user device 11 (such as a smart phone), and a plurality of The second user device 12; at least one first user data 131 and a plurality of second user data 132 (such as a user account or a mobile phone number) are stored in the cloud database 130 of the cloud server 13, and these user devices 11, 12 It can connect to the cloud server 13 through the Internet 10, and each of the user devices 11 and 12 can be provided with a positioning module 111, 121, an augmented reality module 112, 122, and a camera, respectively. Modules 113 and 123.

In order to facilitate the description of the operation mode of the present invention, in the following, the owner of the first user device 11 "the first user" is a user who creates community group data such as a chat room or message board, and the second user device 12 The owner "second user" is a user who has completed the membership registration with the cloud server 13 before joining. The same applications are installed in the user devices 11 and 12 (this embodiment is described by using an “instant messaging app” as an example), and can send a login data to the cloud server 13 (eg, the user opens the APP Time), after receiving the login data, the cloud server 13 will determine whether the login information matches each of the user data 131, 132? If yes, the cloud server 13 allows each of the user devices 11 and 12 to log in to the cloud server 13 (that is, provides a related service of the instant messaging app).

The main purpose of the present invention is to allow users to create a virtual entrance coordinate for community group data such as chat rooms, message boards, and community groups, so that the instant messaging app can have different usage methods and experience. Figures 1 and 2 are examples, specifically illustrating the steps that the cloud server 13 can perform in the first preferred embodiment of the present invention: (201) First, the cloud server 13 can pass through the Internet 10, Receiving a setup instruction (eg, establishing a chat room) from the first user device 11 to establish a community group data T in the cloud database 130, and the community group data T includes at least one public information T1 (Such as: chat room name, representative picture and introduction), a private information T2 (such as: chat room conversation history) and a member information T3 (such as: chat room member account, nickname or code), and the cloud server 13 The first user data 131 can be stored in the member information T3 of the community group data T (eg, the first user is set as a member of the chat room); (202) After the community group data T is established , When the first user device 11 logs in to the cloud again in the future When the end server 13 (such as: the first user opens the instant messaging app again), the cloud server 13 can transmit the community group data T to the first user device 11 (at least the public information T1 and (Private information T2), so that the first user device 11 can present each piece of information T1 ~ T3 of the community group data T on a community screen (eg, display a chat record of a chat room); (203) 嗣, Receive a setting instruction from the first user device 11 (eg, the first user clicks the "set virtual entry" button on the community screen), and the setting instruction corresponds to the community group data T. In this embodiment, The setting data includes the first user data 131 (which can be an account password or an identification code), and the public information T1 of the community group data T (which can be a code for the cloud server 13). Identification) and a coordinate data, wherein the coordinate data may be a global positioning system (Global Positioning System, GPS for short) coordinates, and the generation method may be generated by the positioning module 111 analyzing the current geographic coordinates of the first user device 11 ; (204) According to the setting instruction, find The corresponding community group data T is output, and the coordinate data is stored in the community group data T to become a virtual entry coordinate T4. At this point, the procedure of "setting the virtual entry coordinate T4" is completed; (205) in After completing the foregoing steps, in the future, when the second user device 12 logs in to the cloud server 13, the cloud server 13 can receive a map check instruction (such as enabling a map function or Enable the augmented reality view function); and (206) transmit the virtual entry coordinates T4 and public information T1 of the community group data T to the second user device 12 so that the second user device 12 can be on a map screen An entrance mark is displayed on the display (eg, an icon is displayed on the building of the 101 building). At this point, the procedure of "displaying the virtual entrance coordinate T4" is completed.

In this way, please refer to Figs. 1 to 3, after the cloud server 13 establishes the virtual entry coordinate T4 for the community group data T through the above steps (201) to (204), the subsequent second user device 12 Open the instant messaging app and log in to the cloud server 13. The cloud server 13 will be able to transmit the virtual entry coordinates T4 and the public information T1 to the second user device according to the map check instruction of the second user device 12. 12 (that is, the aforementioned steps (205) to (206)). At the same time, the second user device 12 can display a map screen 3 (such as the third one) through the internal augmented reality module 122 (such as the engine program of the AR technology) and the camera module 113 (that is, the camera lens). (Shown in the figure), and the entry marks A1 and A2 corresponding to the virtual entry coordinates T4 are displayed on the map screen 3, and the display positions of the entry marks A1 and A2 are related to the virtual entry coordinates T4 and the second user device. 12 corresponds to the current geographic coordinates.

For example, after the second user device 12 receives the virtual entry coordinates T4 and the public information T1 provided by the cloud server 13, it can determine that there are two based on the positioning module 121 (such as a WiFi module or a GPS module). The virtual entrance coordinates T4 are located in the front, so the second user device 12 will display corresponding entry marks A1, A2 on the display screen, and display the public information T1 corresponding to the entry marks A1, A2, Such as: "Coffee exchange meeting", "partner chat area" and other text and corresponding diagrams shown in Figure 3.

The community group data T may have a complex array of virtual entry coordinates T4 (which can be set by the first user created or other users authorized by the first user). Take map screen 3 shown in FIG. 3 as an example. The entrance mark A2 may be that a user has found a distinctive coffee shop, so it is specially set for friends to identify; and the entrance mark A1 of the "partner chat area" may be a user preparing to participate in a certain building The wine tastings are specially marked for identification.

Through the aforementioned method, after the first user sets the virtual entrance coordinate T4, the second user can turn on the augmented reality function to explore the interesting communities around life in an immersive way, making the use of the instant messaging app more interesting. , And users can more conveniently search for communities related to the area around their lives, making the "retrieve community" function of the instant messaging app more practical.

In addition, in the foregoing description, the first user device 11 is generated by analyzing the current geographic coordinates using GPS positioning technology or WiFi positioning technology through the positioning module 111. However, the first user may also input a specific location ( Such as: Building 101, the Palace Museum, etc.) as the coordinate information, not limited to the current location.

After the cloud server 13 provides a virtual portal coordinate T4 to the second user device 12 so that it displays the map screen 3, when the second user subsequently clicks the portal markers A1 and A2, the second user device 12 targets After the entry mark A1, A2 generates a lookup instruction and transmits it to the cloud server 13, the cloud server 13 can first determine whether the second user data 132 has been stored in the member data T3 of the community group data T Medium (that is, determining whether the second user is a member of the community group profile T)? If so, the cloud server 13 will directly send the private information T2 of the community group data T to the second user device 12, so that the second user device 12 can present a community screen and view the messages of other users. Record. If not, the cloud server 13 can forward a request instruction to the first user device 11, and the first user determines whether the second user is allowed to join the community group data T.

In addition, please refer to FIGS. 1, 2, and 4, which are the second embodiment of the present invention. The second user device 12 may not use AR technology to present a map screen, but can obtain a planar image via the Internet 10. Map data, for example, when the cloud server 13 transmits the virtual entry coordinates T4 and public information T1 of the community group data T to the second user device 12, the cloud server 13 can use an internal map database (Or through another map server), send a map data (such as Google Maps) to the second user device 12 together, so that the second user device 12 can use the map data, the virtual entrance coordinate T4 and the public Information T1 shows a map screen 3 'and a plurality of entry marks A1' ~ A3 '.

Also, in this embodiment, when the cloud server 13 receives the map check instruction from the second user device 12, the cloud server 13 can still determine the current geographic coordinates of the second user device 12 ( Is the distance between one of the position marks 30) shown in Figure 4 and the virtual entrance coordinate T4 smaller than a predetermined value (eg, is it within 100 meters)? If yes, the virtual entry coordinate T4 and the public information T1 are transmitted to the second user device 12. As shown in FIG. 3, when the second user device 12 generates the map screen 3 using AR technology through the augmented reality module 122 and the camera module 123, the second user device 12 can still judge the virtual Does the entrance coordinate T4 match the facing direction of the second user device 12? In order to confirm whether the entry marks A1 and A2 should be displayed on the map screen 3, since this is a well-known technology of AR technology, the display and imaging process of AR technology will not be repeated here.

In addition to the function of establishing and displaying the "virtual entrance coordinate T4", the present invention also has a function of "message filtering", which will be described in detail as follows: First, when the first user device 11 transmits a message data (which can be text or (Map) to the cloud server 13, the first user device 11 can simultaneously send a corresponding one of the location data to the cloud server 13, for example, when the message data is "the meal is very delicious", the first user can Choose to note the location "Din Tai Fung" at the same time, and the cloud server 13 can store one of the private information T2 in the community group data T according to the message data and location data.

Accordingly, in the case where the second user profile 132 has been stored as the member information T3 of the community group profile T (ie, representing that the second user is already a member of the community group profile T), when the first When the user device 12 launches the instant messaging app and logs in to the cloud server 13, the cloud server 13 will be able to provide a "message filtering" function: first, please refer to Figures 1 and 5, the cloud server 13 Pass the community group data T to the second user device 12 so that the second user device 12 can display a community screen (such as a conversation record in a chat room) based on the public information T1 and private information T2. ); 嗣, when the second user device 12 sends a message checking instruction to the cloud server 13 (for example, the second user clicks the "view surrounding message record" button on the community screen), the second user device 12 At the same time, the current coordinate data and the message checking instruction can be transmitted to the cloud server 13, and a viewing screen 5 is displayed by the AR technology through the augmented reality module 122 and the camera module 123.

After receiving, after receiving the current coordinate data and the message checking instruction, the cloud server 13 will determine whether the position data of all the private information T2 in the community group data T is less than a preset value with the current coordinate data ( For example: Is the distance less than 30 meters? If yes, it means that the private information T2 is located around the second user device 12. Alas, the cloud server 13 transmits the qualified private information T2 to the second user device 12. As shown in Figure 5, the viewing screen 5 is a conference room screen, and the viewing screen 5 will display a plurality of message marks B1 ~ B3, each of which corresponds to the private information T2 that meets the conditions For example, those who point to the cabinet are "50 copies of event materials", those who point to the center of the conference room have an exclamation mark sticker, and a "three-point meeting" message. The second user can display it through AR technology. Viewing screen 5, combined with the "message filtering" function of the present invention, filters and displays the messages related to the current location.

In addition, in the foregoing embodiment, the map checking instruction and the message checking instruction are formed by clicking the corresponding button on the screen of each of the user devices 11 and 12, but in the method of the present invention, each of the user devices 11 and 12 also The “sensory operation” method can be used to generate the aforementioned map check instructions or message check instructions, for example, when the second user device 12 opens the instant messaging app and displays the community list screen on its screen (that is, in a bar List the public information T1 of the community group data T that the second user has joined. At this time, the user can flip the second user device 12 so that the second user device 12 is changed from "vertical to the ground" to "and "Parallel on the ground", so that the second user device 12 can generate the map check instruction by itself according to the change detected by the internal gyroscope to display a flat map (as shown in FIG. 4).

Similarly, when the second user device 12 starts the instant messaging app to display the community list screen on the screen, the second user can change the second user device 12 from the "upright" mode to the "horizontal" mode. So that the second user device 12 can activate the augmented reality module 122 and the camera module 123 by itself according to the changes detected by the internal gyroscope, and display the three-dimensional map image (as shown in FIG. 3) using AR technology.示). According to this, the special method of somatosensory operation will allow users to operate more intuitively and conveniently.

The above are only a few preferred embodiments of the present invention. However, the technical features of the present invention are not limited to this. Those skilled in the relevant art can easily think of it after referring to the technical content of the present invention. Effective changes should not depart from the protection scope of the present invention.
