     Referring to  FIG. 10 , a user of a mobile terminal  1000  may select some photo images from a photo album and transmit the selected images to the vehicle  100 . 
     Accordingly, the received photo images may be output on the display  251  of the vehicle  100 . Specifically, a predetermined destination may be extracted from the received photo images, and in case where a plurality of destinations are extracted, groups may be generated by destinations. Accordingly, each of the received photo images may be included in a group of extracted destinations and output. 
     Thereafter, the extracted destination information may be transmitted to the mobile terminal  1000 . Accordingly, the mobile terminal  1000  may output the photo images forming groups according to destinations. 
     Here, information on the extracted destination corresponding to each of the photo images may be inserted as metadata into each of the photo images. For example, when a first destination is extracted to correspond to the first image, information about the first destination may be inserted into metadata of the first image. As a result, in the mobile terminal  1000 , it may be checked that the first image belongs to the group of the first destination (the first destination is extracted from the first image). 
     In another example; the vehicle control device  800  may receive metadata together with a photo image from a server  2000 . 
     That is, the vehicle control device  800  may directly extract a destination from the photo image received from the mobile terminal  1000  or may receive a photo image in which a destination is inserted as meta data, from the server  200 . 
     Meanwhile, the plurality of images include first and second images, and the controller  820  may extract a first destination corresponding to the first image and a second destination corresponding to the second image. 
     In another embodiment, the controller  820  may insert information about the first destination into the meta data of the first image and insert the information about the second destination into the meta data of the second image. 
     Accordingly, the controller  820  may control the communication unit  810  to transmit the metadata of the first and second images to the external device. 
     In another embodiment, the plurality of images include a third image, and when the first destination is extracted to correspond to the third image, the controller  820  may include the first image and the third image in the group of the first destination. 
     In another embodiment, the plurality of images may include a fourth image, and when a plurality of destinations are extracted to correspond to the fourth image, the controller  820  may include the fourth image in a group of a destination satisfying a predetermined condition among the plurality of destinations. 
     In a specific example, the controller  820  may include the fourth image in a group of destinations having a largest number of corresponding images among the plurality of destinations. 
       FIG. 11  is a conceptual view illustrating an embodiment in which a destination is extracted from a plurality of images. 
     Referring to  FIG. 11 , a first destination may be extracted from the first and third images, and a second destination may be extracted from the second image. The third and fourth destinations may be extracted from the fourth image. 
     Accordingly, the first and third images from which the same destination is extracted may be included in the group of the first destination. And, the second image may be included in the group of the second destination. 
     The fourth image from which a plurality of destinations are extracted may be included in the group of the third destination or the group of the fourth destination. In an embodiment, a group to which the fourth image belongs may be determined by comparing the number of images belonging to the group of the third destination with the number of images belonging to the group of the fourth destination. In detail, when the number of images belonging to the group of the third destination is larger than the number of images belonging to the group of the fourth destination, the fourth image may be included in the group of the third destination. 
     In another example, the fourth image may be repeatedly included in the group of the third destination and the group of the fourth destination. 
     In another embodiment, information on each extracted destination may be inserted into metadata of the image. Specifically, information on the first destination may be inserted into each of metadata of first and third images, and information on the second destination may be inserted into metadata of the second image. 
     In addition, information on at least one destination selected from the third and fourth destinations may be inserted into metadata of the fourth image. 
     In another embodiment, the metadata for each image may be transmitted to an external device. In a specific example, the metadata may be transmitted to the mobile terminal  1000  or the server  2000  described in  FIG. 10 . 
     Meanwhile, the first destination and at least one image included in the group of the first destination may be displayed in a first area of the display unit  251  and the second destination and at least one image included in the group of the second destination may be displayed in a second area of the display unit  251 . 
       FIG. 12  is a conceptual view illustrating an embodiment in which a plurality of images are classified as groups of destinations and displayed. 
     Referring to  FIG. 12 , images may be classified and displayed by groups of destinations. 
     As an embodiment continued from  FIG. 11 , the first and third images may be included in the group of the first destination and output. 
     Here, the first and third images may be output in an overlapping manner, and here, a frequently transmitted image or a recently transmitted image may be displayed as a representative image. 
     In another example, each size may be reduced so that the first and third images may all be seen in the group of the first destination. 
     Similarly, a second image may be output to the group of the second destination and the fourth image may be output to the group of the third destination. 
     Meanwhile, when the number of images included in the group of the first destination is equal to or greater than a predetermined number, the controller  820  may calculate priority of the first destination to be higher than other destinations. 
     In an embodiment, priority may be calculated to be different depending on the number of images included in each group. For example, when the number of images included in the group of the first destination is larger than the number of images included in the group of the second destination, priority for the first destination is calculated to be higher than the priority for the second destination. 
     Priority may be applied on the basis of several references. For example, if priority of an image is high, an output order thereof on the list of the groups by destinations may come on ahead or the image may be output in the middle of the screen  251 . 
     In a specific example, if the priority for the first destination is higher than the priority for the second destination, the group of the first destination may be output in the middle of the screen  251 . In another example, a graphic object (such as an icon, etc.) indicating a high priority may be displayed in the group of the first destination. 
     Meanwhile, the controller  820  may further search for a similar destination using the first destination. 
     The similar destination is a place similar to the first destination, and may be variously defined according to a predetermined reference. For example, if the first destination is a mart, similar destinations may include marts at different locations. Similarly, if the first destination is an amusement park, amusement parks at different locations may be included in the similar destination. 
     In another embodiment, when the vehicle  100  is traveling to a final destination, rather than the first destination, the controller  820  may search the similar destination on the route to the final destination. 
     In another embodiment, the similar destination may be searched within a predetermined radius based on a current position of the vehicle  100 . 
       FIG. 13  is a conceptual view illustrating an embodiment in which a similar destination regarding a destination is additionally searched. 
     Referring to  FIG. 13 , when the number of images included in the group of the first destination is equal to or greater than a predetermined number, the priority for the first destination may be set to be higher than other destinations. In addition, similar destinations may be further searched using the first destination. 
     In an embodiment, when the vehicle  100  travels along a predetermined driving route, a similar destination may be searched on the driving route. Accordingly, when a similar destination is searched, a location of the similar destination may be displayed on the driving route. 
     In addition, a message window indicating that the similar destination exists may be output, or a notification message may be output by voice. 
     Meanwhile, the controller  820  may calculate the driving route using the first and second destinations, and may control the communication unit  810  so that the calculated driving route is output on the display unit  251 . 
     In an embodiment, the controller  820  may control the communication unit  810  such that a thumbnail of the first image is output to a position corresponding to the first destination on the driving route and a thumbnail of the second image is output to a position corresponding to the second destination on the driving route. 
     In another embodiment, when the driving route is calculated, the controller  820  may determine a running order for the first and second destinations according to the number of images included in the groups of the first and second destinations. 
       FIG. 14  is a conceptual view illustrating an embodiment in which a driving route calculated using a destination is output. 
     Referring to  FIG. 14 , when a first destination is extracted to correspond to a first image and a second destination is extracted to correspond to a second image, a driving route  1400  passing through the first and second destinations may be calculated. 
     In an embodiment, a driving route passing through the first and second destinations may be calculated in consideration of a current position of the vehicle  100 , a traffic situation, a frequently traveled route, and the like. 
     In another embodiment, a running order for the first and second destinations may be determined according to the number of images included in each of the groups of first and second destinations. In a specific example, when the number of images included in the group of the first destination is greater than the number of images included in the group of the second destination, the driving route  1400  that first passes through the first destination and subsequently passes through the second destination may be calculated. 
     In addition, the calculated travel route  1400  may be output on the display unit  251 , and the positions of the first and second destinations may be displayed on the travel route  1400 . Also, a thumbnail  1410  of the first image may be output at the position of the first destination, and a thumbnail  1420  of the second image may be output at the position of the second destination. 
     In another embodiment, a thumbnail image output to a position of the destination on the driving route may be the most recently received image or an image with high transmission frequency. In a specific example, the first destination may be extracted from the first image, the third image, and the fourth image. Here, if the first image has most recently been transmitted, a thumbnail of the first image may be output to the position of the first destination. 
       FIG. 15  is a conceptual view illustrating an embodiment in which a plurality of driving routes are output. 
     Referring to  FIG. 15 , an occupant may select at least one of groups by destinations. In an embodiment, the occupant may apply a touch to a group of destinations A, C, and D to select the destinations A, C and D. Here, a check mark may be displayed in check boxes of the group of destinations A, C, and D. 
     In another embodiment, several driving routes passing through the selected destinations A, C, and D may be calculated and displayed on the display unit  251 . 
     As described above, the driving routes may be variously calculated in consideration of the number of images included in each destination, a current location of the vehicle, traffic conditions, routes that the driver has frequently traveled, time, weather, driver preference, stopover, and the like. 
     In a specific example, if the number of images included in the destination A is largest and the number of images included in the destination D is smallest, a running order may be set to a running order of destinations A, C, and D. 
     The driver may select a driving route  1500 , among several driving routes, by applying a touch input, and the vehicle  100  may travel along the driving route  1500 . 
     In an example, thumbnails  1510 ,  1520  and  1530  of images corresponding to the destinations A, C and D may be output in the selected driving route  1500 . Here, the thumbnails  1510 ,  1520 , and  1530  of the images may be representative images for respective destinations. 
     In a specific example, each of the representative images for the destinations may be a most recently received image or an image which has been repeatedly received several times for each destination. Or, each of the representative images may be an image having the highest image quality among the images belonging to the group of the destinations. 
     When the vehicle  100  is turned on, the controller  820  may control the communication unit  810  such that a plurality of images may be received from a terminal that satisfies a predetermined condition among a plurality of terminals located in the vehicle  100 . 
     In an embodiment, the controller  820  may control the communication unit  810  such that a plurality of images are received from the terminal of the driver on the basis of information identifying the driver of the vehicle  100 . 
       FIG. 16  is a conceptual view illustrating an embodiment in which a plurality of images are received from a terminal of a driver. 
     Referring to  FIG. 16 , when the vehicle  100  is turned on and a plurality of terminals  1610  and  1620  in the vehicle  100  are detected, a plurality of images may be preferentially received from the terminal  1610  of the driver. 
     In an embodiment, the driver&#39;s face may be recognized from an image obtained by imaging the inside of the vehicle  100 . Accordingly, a plurality of images may be received from the terminal  1610  registered to be owned by the driver. 
     Hereinafter, an embodiment of selecting an image to be transmitted from an external device and a vehicle to be transmitted will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. 
       FIGS. 17 and 18  are conceptual views illustrating an embodiment of selecting an image to be transmitted. 
     Referring to  FIG. 17 , while using various applications such as a search portal, a map, a messenger, and a calendar, and the like, the mobile terminal  1000  may transmit contents to the vehicle  100  in a sharing manner. 
     In an embodiment, when a share menu is selected, a menu item  1700  for transmitting contents to the vehicle may be output. Accordingly, when a touch input is applied to the menu item  1700 , the corresponding contents may be transmitted to the vehicle  100 . 
     Referring to  FIG. 18 , the user of the mobile terminal  1000  may select an image to be transmitted among photo album images, and then select the share menu. 
     Accordingly, the menu item  1700  for transmitting contents to the vehicle may be output, and when a touch input is applied to the menu item  1700 , the selected photo image may be transmitted to the vehicle  100 . 
       FIG. 19  is a conceptual view illustrating an embodiment of selecting a vehicle to be transmitted. 
     Referring to  FIG. 19 , when the menu item  1700  for transmitting contents to the vehicle is selected, a list  1900  of vehicles that may be transmitted may be output. 
     In an example, the list  1900  may include a previously registered vehicle, a vehicle located within a predetermined distance, and the like. 
     In a specific example, when a touch input is applied to an item of a first vehicle, selected contents may be transmitted to the first vehicle. Here, the contents may be transmitted at the time when the first vehicle is started. In another example, contents may be transmitted in a chat window with the first vehicle. 
     In another example, the list  1900  may include a server. When a touch input is applied to a server item, contents may be transmitted to the server. Thereafter, when a vehicle is detected within a predetermined distance from the terminal, a message inquiring whether to transmit the contents to the vehicle may be output. An embodiment related thereto will be described with reference to  FIG. 20 . 
     In another example, an item for registering a new vehicle may be output on the list  1900 . Accordingly, a new vehicle for transmission may be added by applying a touch input to the item for registering a new vehicle. 
     In another embodiment, all or only some of a plurality of images may be transmitted depending on the type of vehicle to which the images are to be transmitted. 
     In a specific example, if the vehicle to which an image is to be transmitted is an own vehicle, a plurality of images may all be transmitted. Alternatively, if the vehicle to which an image is to be transmitted is not the own vehicle, only some of the plurality of images may be transmitted. If the vehicle to which an image is to be transmitted is a public transportation means such as a taxi, only a limited image may be transmitted. 
     Hereinafter, an embodiment in which the vehicle output to the list  1900  is set will be described. 
     In an embodiment, a frequently used vehicle (self-owned vehicle, family owned vehicle, etc.) may be directly registered in advance through a vehicle type, a vehicle number, and the like. To this end, a user authentication process may be performed. 
     In another example, when a person who carries a terminal gets in the vehicle, the terminal may recognize the corresponding vehicle and a frequently used vehicle may be automatically registered. Alternatively, if a shared car is used, vehicle information may be retrieved from an shared vehicle application and registered. 
       FIG. 20  is a conceptual view illustrating an embodiment in which a plurality of images are transmitted to a vehicle which has approached a terminal from a server. 
     Referring to  FIG. 20 , in the embodiment of  FIG. 19 , when the server is selected from the list  1900 , selected contents may be preferentially transmitted to the server. 
     Thereafter, when a vehicle is detected within a predetermined distance from the terminal  1000 , a message inquiring whether to transmit contents to the vehicle may be output. Accordingly, when transmission is accepted, the contents may be transmitted to the corresponding vehicle. 
     Hereinafter, in a further embodiment, information calculated through image analysis and information using an in-vehicle image may be inserted into metadata of the image and used in other terminals. 
     In an embodiment, when a movie poster is received, a corresponding movie may be played in the vehicle. If the occupant is sleepy or bored while the movie is being played, a movie similar to the movie may not be recommended any longer. 
     Effects of the vehicle control device provided in a vehicle and the method for controlling a vehicle according to the present invention will be described as follows. 
     According to at least one of the embodiments of the present invention, a destination and a driving route may be automatically proposed by simply transmitting an image, without having to directly input the destination. 
     Also, by inserting the destination extracted from the image into metadata of the image, destination information related to the image may also be used even in another device or an external server. 
     In addition, by displaying a thumbnail of the image corresponding to the destination at a position of the destination on the driving route, the position of the destination extracted from the image may be checked by intuition. 
     The present invention described above may be implemented as a computer-readable code in a medium in which a program is recorded. The computer-readable medium includes any type of recording device in which data that may be read by a computer system is stored. The computer-readable medium may be, for example, a hard disk drive (HDD), a solid state disk (SSD), a silicon disk drive (SDD), a ROM, a RAM, a CD-ROM, a magnetic tape, a floppy disk, an optical data storage device, and the like. The computer-readable medium also includes implementations in the form of carrier waves (e.g., transmission via the Internet). Also, the computer may include the controller  180  of the terminal.
