Navigation system with image assisted navigation mechanism and method of operation thereof
Hongwei Feng,Ahsan Habib +1 more
TLDR
In this article, a method of operation of a navigation system includes: receiving an entry for a destination, a sub-destination, or a combination thereof with the subdestination located within the destination, receiving a road obstacle image while traveling along a route to reach the destination; generating an operation direction based on the road obstacle images; and generating a destination image representing the destination for displaying on a device.Citations

Integrated navigation and collision avoidance systems
TL;DR: In this paper, an integrated navigation and collision avoidance system for a source object may include a navigation module and a collision avoidance module, which determine whether to include collision avoidance information and modify navigation instructions to generate a navigation output.
Patent
Navigation system with an itinerary planning mechanism and method of operation thereof
TL;DR: In this paper, a navigation system includes a storage interface, configured to access a travelogue image for depicting an interest point; a control unit coupled to the storage interface is configured to generate an extracted interest set including the interest point based on the travelogue images; and a travel itinerary including an activity sequence based on extracted interest sets.

Vehicle position determination system and method
James W. Sennott,Christos T Kyrtsos,Adam J. Gudat,Dana A. Christensen,Douglas W Friedrich,Darrell E. Stafford +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the first and second position estimates are combined and filtered using novel techniques to derive a more accurate third position estimate of the vehicle's position, which can be used for autonomous navigation.
Patent
Estimating Distance To An Object Using A Sequence Of Images Recorded By A Monocular Camera
TL;DR: In this paper, the camera acquires consecutively in real-time image frames including images of an object within the field of view of the camera, and the range from the vehicle to the object is calculated in real time based on the smoothed measurement and subsequent measurements.
Patent
Collision Avoidance Methods and Systems
TL;DR: In this paper, the possibility of a collision between a host vehicle and any other vehicles is assessed by receiving signals from the transmitter/receivers of each other vehicle, and when a received signal contains additional information of interest about a possible collision involving the host vehicle, analyzing the extracted positional information to determine whether any signals contain additional information that might indicate a collision.
Patent
Multiobject fusion module for collision preparation system
TL;DR: In this paper, a method for controlling a vehicle operating during a dynamic vehicle event includes monitoring a first input image, monitoring a second input image and determining a dissimilarity measure comparing the first tracked object to the second tracked object.
