```php
<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Services\IpLookupService;

class IpController extends Controller
{
    protected $ipService;

    public function __construct(IpLookupService $ipService)
    {
        $this->ipService = $ipService;
    }

    public function lookup(Request $request)
    {
        $ip = $request->ip(); // Get the user’s IP

        $ipData = $this->ipService->getIpData($ip);

        return response()->json($ipData);
    }
}
```
