CUSTOMIZED INDOOR PATH GUIDE APPARATUS AND METHOD USING VARIOUS COST FUNCTION

摘要

A customized indoor path guiding apparatus using various cost functions comprises: a route request determining module which determines whether a route request is received as information on a starting place and a destination is transmitted from a user terminal; a user terminal location confirming module which confirms a location of the user terminal through a wireless access point if the route request is received as the information on the starting point and the destination is transmitted from the user terminal; a shortest route search calculating module which calculates a shortest distance-based route search result regarding a path from the starting point to the destination through network data that has been previously established based on information on the position of the user terminal and the information on the starting point to the destination if the position of the user terminal is confirmed through the wireless access point; a cost function applying module which applies various cost functions to information on the shortest distance-based route search result calculated by the shortest route search calculating module; and a cost function applied route search calculating module which outputs a route search result optimized for path guiding by proceeding a route search in which the various cost functions are applied to the information on the shortest distance-based route search result by the cost function applying module. According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a more reliable and accurate route search result for indoor path guiding by applying various cost functions to a shortest distance-based route search result when the a route search is performed to guide an indoor path.
