System and method for providing taxi service

A method for providing a taxi service, the method comprising:

• determining, by a vehicle distribution unit, whether to identify vehicle distribution call information by using an operation state of a vehicle and information acquired by associating a boarding location of a user terminal and heading direction information of the vehicle, wherein the heading direction information of the vehicle comprises a heading direction;
• calculating, by a meter unit, an operation fee by using GPS information or wheel speed information of the vehicle;
• and
• determining, by a navigation unit, whether an output screen is changed based on gear state information of the vehicle, wherein the gear state information comprises a gear state;
• wherein:
• the steps of determining whether to identify the vehicle distribution call information, calculating the operation fee, and determining whether the output screen is changed are performed by hardware in the vehicle,
• wherein:
• the vehicle distribution unit is an application for performing a function determining the operation state of the vehicle installed in hardware in the vehicle,
• the meter unit is an application for performing a calculating function installed in the hardware in the vehicle, and
• the navigation unit is an application for performing a function searching a path from a departure to a destination installed in the hardware in the vehicle,
• wherein:
• calculating, by the meter unit, the operation fee by using the GPS information or the wheel speed information of the vehicle comprises:
• collecting the GPS information;
• receiving the wheel speed information of the vehicle from a sensor device;
• starting an operation fee calculation after receiving alternator information indicating that an alternator is in an on state through the alternator information;
• and
• calculating the operation fee of the vehicle by using the received wheel speed information or the collected GPS information, and
• wherein determining whether to identify vehicle distribution call information comprises:
• receiving vehicle distribution call information including the boarding location of the user terminal through an Electronic Control Unit (ECU) of the vehicle from an operating server;
• generating the heading direction information by using the GPS information of the vehicle;
• determining whether the boarding location of the user terminal is a location at which the user terminal is capable of boarding the vehicle in the heading direction of the vehicle when an operation state of the vehicle is a state in which a passenger does not board the vehicle and a driver waits for providing the taxi service as a condition to identify the vehicle distribution call information by using the boarding location of the user terminal and the heading direction information of the vehicle;
• and
• identifying the vehicle distribution call information when the vehicle distribution call information identification condition is satisfied, and
• wherein determining whether the boarding location of the user terminal is a location at which the user terminal is capable of boarding the vehicle in the heading direction of the vehicle comprises:
• determining, by the vehicle distribution unit, that the boarding location of the user terminal is located at a side of the heading direction of the vehicle comparing GPS information received from the user terminal and the heading direction information.
