TL;DR: In this paper, a navigation system helps users navigate through an environment by a plurality of sensors, which include one or both of short and long range sensors that detect objects within the user's environment.
Abstract: A navigation system helps users navigate through an environment by a plurality of sensors. The sensors include one or both of short and long range sensors that detect objects within the user's environment. Information obtained from the sensors' detection of objects within the user's environment can be used to help the user avoid colliding with objects within the environment and help navigate the user to a destination. The navigation system may provide the user with audible feedback regarding the objects with the user's environment and/or instructions regarding how to avoid colliding with an object and how to navigate to a destination.

16 Jul 2003TL;DR: In this paper, a navigation system for providing navigation information to a user responsive to user commands includes a user device for issuing user commands and displaying a user interface to the user and a navigation device for connecting to user devices and receiving user commands from the user device and transmitting navigation information.
Abstract: A navigation system for providing navigation information to a user responsive to user commands includes (1) a user device for issuing user commands and displaying a user interface to the user and (2) a navigation device for connecting to the user device and receiving user commands from the user device and transmitting navigation information to the user device. The information received from the user device includes updated map information, traffic information, news information, weather information, event-related information, business-related information, and user-specified information. The navigation device performs route following based on commands received from the user device and transmits routing instructions to the user device. The navigation device and user device are separately operable by a user.

28 Jun 2002TL;DR: In this paper, a distributed navigation system and method for providing driving instructions to a user is presented, where the instructions are assembled into sequential stepwise driving directions and stored in a storage device in the client device.
Abstract: A distributed navigation system and method for providing driving instructions to a user. The system includes a service center having a navigation server and associated workstations. The service center stores driving instructions in a continuously updated map database. In response to a user request the instructions are transmitted by way of a wireless network to a client device residing in the user vehicle. The instructions are assembled into sequential stepwise driving directions and stored in a storage device in the client device. Commands from the user trigger playback of the driving instructions in a stepwise fashion.

21 Apr 2005TL;DR: In this article, a method and system of creating and customizing multiple roots in a navigation pane is described, which allows the user to bypass irrelevant pages while reducing the amount of information presented in the navigation pane.
Abstract: A method and system of creating and customizing multiple roots in a navigation pane are described. By selecting desired pages and adding them to the navigation pane, users may create multiple roots with which to navigate. A multiple roots navigation system permits the user to bypass irrelevant pages while reducing the amount of information presented in the navigation pane. The individual root nodes may further be customized to reflect ownership, importance or general aesthetic preferences. Using multiple roots, a user is not restricted to a single hierarchical display structure.

TL;DR: In this article, a cellular phone, including a GPS signal processing means and a camera, performs navigation by use of a display device, the navigation performed through location information detection means for detecting location information from a picture taken by the camera, and GPS signals processing means based on location information detected by the location information detector.
Abstract: A cellular phone, including a GPS signal processing means and a camera, performs navigation by use of a display device, the navigation performed through location information detection means for detecting location information from a picture taken by the camera, and GPS signal processing means based on location information detected by the location information detection means. By determining destination information using GPS on the basis of information taken by the camera, or by acquiring destination information and additional information from a server, setting of destination for subsequent navigation is simplified.
