Bicycle users were surpassed a million recently as bicycle riding will be a key element of daily life. As users increase, we can expect that the user is more exposed to the risk of an unexpected accident. Therefore, we need to establish several preventive measures for a safe riding environment. In this paper, we developed mobile application by using the acquired GPS-based location information that provide safety services for the bike riding as a LBS service. In detail, we have been able to provide a bicycle safety navigation service by using the bluetooth transmission and reception method between Android and Arduino-based devices. As a future work, the safety could be improved if we expand various forms of Arduino sensors. As a result, a service developed in this study will be able to converge ahead to connect into several personalized mobile IoT services.

With development of internet, location-based service (LBS) is getting more interest in wire and wireless network, and many studies are in progress to provide various services such as GIS and GPS technique related to this. Today positioning and information providing service is accomplished by mobile communication companies' chasing the cell or building unique GIS system, but there is a lot of building-cost that must be endured to define boundary of collecting precise location information from chasing Cell and provide unique location information service. In this paper, it desires to make the database of location information with using GPS, relatively precise satellite positioning system, to cut the cost of building location information service, and to present service models such as children's positioning service that is to reduce the cost of building GIS by using Web Open API and provide location information of discrete object in real-time.

In this paper, we propose a capacity modeling method for Bluetooth based LBSs (Location Based Services) between Bluetooth APs(Access Points) and mobile phones. In order to do this, we consider the entrance and exit of the users to and from the AP. Using parameters such as the connection time, data transmission time and number of users in the AP zone, we analyze the capacity of a Bluetooth AP using an appropriate queuing model. The required number of APs in a certain zone is estimated from the number of users in the zone using the proposed queuing model. By performing simulations and experiments, the validity and applicability of the proposed method are verified.

DGPS is a technology that can improve the positioning precision of the existing GPS based on the correction information regarding reference station. Although the country is currently building infrastructure for DGPS correction information to be transmitted, it is being used only in limited areas for which DGPS expensive equipment is required. By enabling the development of the DGPS device using the smart phone, this limitation can be overcome, DGPS can be applied for various location-based services, and the implementation of the new model of location-based services may be enabled. In this paper, we introduce the development of a DGPS device for which high-precision positioning is possible using DGPS correction information received via the DMB network or mobile network in the smart phone environment.

As the recent advances in network and wireless communications and semiconductor design and process technologies, our computing platform is rapidly shifting from desktop PCs to mobile devices such as UMPC (Ultra Mobile PC), Tablet PC, and Smartphone. Especially, wide-spreading Smartphones allow a new field of application based on location based services available with an user interface called augmented reality (AR). Therefore, this paper introduces an implementation of AR using various OpenAPls on Android Smartphones. In order to utilize enrich user data in real time, the system integrates with location based social network services also with OpenAPI. These APIs enable third-party developers to make use of rich contents of many portal web sites. The prototype was implemented on the real Android phone, Sky Sirius, and the result shows that it can provide an efficient location based service using AR technology without any constraints on mobile devices; in addition, it connects SNS to AR for sharing user data including photos, videos, and messages based on a specific location.

In this paper, we designed a LBS-based smart platform for Lifelog service that can utilize the other's lifelog information. The conventional Lifelog service means that the system records the daily activities of the smart device user so the user can retrieve the early-recorded information later. The proposed Lifelog service platform uses the GPS/UFID location information and the various information extracted from the image as the lifelog data. Further, the proposed Lifelog platform using DB can provide the user with the Lifelog data recorded by the other service user. The system usually provide the other's Lifelog data within the 500m distance from the user and the range of distance can be adjustable. The proposed smart platform based on image recognition for Lifelog can acquire the image from the smart device directly and perform the various image recognition processing to produce the useful image attributes. And it can store the location information, image data, image attributes and the relevant web informations on the database that can be retrieved by the other use's request. The attributes stored and managed in the image information database consist of the followings: Object ID, the image type, the capture time and the image GPS coordinates. The image type attribute has the following values: the mountain, the sea, the street, the front of building, the inside of building and the portrait. The captured image can be classified into the above image type by the pattern matching image processing techniques and the user's direct selection as well. In case of the portrait-attribute, we can choose the multiple sub-attribute values from the shirt, pant, dress and accessory sub-attributes. Managing the Lifelog data in the database, the system can provide the user with the useful additional services like a path finding to the location of the other service user's Lifelog data and information.

Advertisement market using the augmented reality has been rapidly increasing recently due to integration with LBS(location based services). This study was conducted to examine the effect and acceptance intention of mobile augmented reality advertisement through TAM(Technology Acceptance Model). 'Contextual feature,' which is a characteristic of augmented reality advertisement, was selected as an outside effective variable, and perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use, which are the core variables of TAM, and attitude of advertisement and advertisement acceptance intention were selected as important evidences of Technology Acceptance Process. Also, the relationship between each evidences were investigated. As a result of the investigation of the outside influence on the acceptance model of augmented reality advertisement, it was shown that the contextual feature of augmented reality advertisement had meaningful influence on perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use, and it was also shown that it has positive influence on the attitude of advertisement and acceptance intention of advertisement.

Demand Responsive Transit (DRT) services are becoming necessary as part of not only alternative transportation means for elderly and mobility impaired passengers, but also sustainable and flexible transportation options in urban area due to the development of communication technologies and Location Based Services (LBS). It is difficult to investigate the system performance regarding vehicle operational schemes and vehicle routing algorithms due to the lack of commercial software to support door-to-door vehicle simulation for larger area. This study proposes a simulation framework to evaluate innovative and flexible transit systems focusing on various vehicle routing algorithms, which describes data-type requirements for simulating door-to-door service on demand. A simulation framework is applied to compare two vehicle dispatch algorithms, Nearest Vehicle Dispatch (NVD) and Insertion Heuristic (IH) for real-time shared-taxi service in Seoul. System productivity and efficiency of the shared-taxi service are investigated, comparing to the conventional taxi system.
