Publication number: 20250181994Abstract: An outputter of a visitor terminal outputs ticket information associated with a ticket owned by a user. An acquirer of a gate terminal acquires the ticket information output by the visitor terminal. A provider of a server provides the visitor terminal with route information based on a route from a gate location where the gate terminal that has acquired the ticket information is located to a destination location associated with the ticket information. A presenter of the visitor terminal presents the route from the gate location to the destination location based on the route information provided by the server.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 27, 2024Publication date: June 5, 2025Applicant: Rakuten Group, Inc.Inventors: Yusuke HAYASAKA, Chisa YAMAMOTO
