Visual point-to-point independent taxi calling system and method

Abstract

The invention discloses a visual point-to-point independent taxi calling system and method. The taxi calling system comprises a passenger handheld terminal, a vehicle-mounted equipment terminal and a server, wherein the passenger handheld terminal comprises a passenger-terminal global positioning system (GPS) positioning module, a passenger-terminal general packet radio service (GPRS) communication module and a passenger-terminal processor; and the vehicle-mounted equipment terminal comprises a vehicle-mounted terminal processor, a liquid crystal display (LCD) module, a voice-frequency circuit, a clock module, a vehicle-mounted terminal GPS positioning module and a vehicle-mounted terminal GPRS communication module. By means of the visual point-to-point independent taxi calling system and method, passengers who need to take taxis build direct contacts with vehicle-mounted terminals of empty taxis nearby by using mobile phones, a control center is not required, taxi calling is efficient and convenient, dynamic information real-time display can be achieved, two parties decide to select objects according to intentions, and the independency is strong.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of urban intelligent car-calling, in particular to a visual taxi point-to-point autonomous car-calling system and a method thereof. Background technique [0002] As a convenient means of transportation, taxis effectively fill the gap of fixed bus lines and provide great convenience for people's travel. For many years, people have used the passive way of waiting for taxis on the side of the road to hail taxis. During peak hours, remote urban roads or roads that taxis do not pass frequently, passengers need to wait for a long time. The blind driving of taxis will lead to an increase in fuel consumption and an increase in the number of taxis, and it will also greatly pollute the environment. In order to alleviate this problem, taxi companies and scientific research institutions have actively developed various taxi calling systems or equipment. However, when using existing products or patented taxis (such as phone calls...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, when using existing products or patented taxis (such as phone calls, text messages, and online taxi calls), it is necessary to go through the taxi management and dispatching control center. There are many defects in calling a taxi such as unknown taxi number, no available network, and long waiting time.

This makes the car-hailing system through the dispatch center inefficient, long in response time, and less autonomous for passengers, so these systems cannot be recognized and promoted by the market

[0003] On the other hand, most people in the city carry mobile phones with them at present, and people can communicate in the areas covered by the signal, but they cannot use mobile phones, a convenient device, to call taxis.

Therefore, there is no practical connection between taxis and mobile phones, which makes these two resources underutilized
