A Bluetooth low energy (BLE)-based beacon device includes a wireless transmitter, a memory device that stores an ID of the BLE-based beacon device, a switch, and a control circuit that senses the switch being pressed, changes a state of the BLE-based beacon device from an idle state to a wakeup state based on a result of the sensing, determines whether a predetermined period of time has elapsed, and changes the state of the BLE-based beacon device from the wakeup state to the idle state when the predetermined period of time has elapsed. The control circuit transmits the ID stored in the memory device to the wireless transmitter only while the BLE-based beacon device is in the wakeup state.

Beacon device including switch and service providing method using the same

A method of accessing a web page using a near field communication (NFC) tag is provided. The method includes receiving a tag ID from the NFC tag using an application program installed in a mobile terminal, the application program transmitting the tag ID to a first ID search engine, the application program receiving a uniform resource locator (URL) of a management system corresponding to the tag ID from the first ID search engine, the application program accessing the management system using the URL of the management system and requesting a URL of the web page from the management system, the application program receiving the URL of the web page from the management system, and the application program accessing the web page using the URL of the web page.

Web page access method and web server access method

A method for authenticating a user using a mobile terminal according to an exemplary embodiment of the present inventive concepts, in a system including an operation server managing a database for storing a first telephone number of a user, a near field wireless communication device, and a mobile terminal, receiving, by an application program installed in the mobile terminal, a uniform resource locator (URL) of the operation server from the near field wireless communication device, accessing, by the application program, the operation server using the URL and transmitting a second telephone number of the mobile terminal to the operation server, and using, by the application program, a service provided by the operation server according to a result of comparison between the first telephone number and the second telephone number performed by the operation server.
