TL;DR: In this article, a navigation method and navigation system (14) capable of taking into account the speed of a vehicle (10) traveling along a road segment (52) and providing an acoustic, visual and/or haptic warning or speed recommendation and or recommendation to change lane or increase inter-vehicle distance to support effective lane merging situation as the vehicle approaches a merging region with another road segment.
Abstract: A navigation method and navigation system (14) capable of taking into account the speed of a vehicle (10) traveling along a road segment (52) and providing an acoustic, visual and/or haptic warning or speed recommendation and/or recommendation to change lane or increase inter-vehicle distance to support effective lane merging situation as the vehicle approaches a merging region with another road segment (54) The navigation system (14) monitors the position and speed of a vehicle (10) in which the navigation system (14) is carried simultaneously determining or being provided with an average speed of vehicles traveling on another road segment which merges ahead The navigation system (14) communicates the average speed to the first vehicle and also recommends a speed change if the vehicles monitored speed does not equal the average speed traveling on the other road segment

TL;DR: In this article, a vehicle navigation system in which an optimum route from a starting point to a destination is computed in accordance with map information is presented. And a route guide is displayed in accordance to the current position of the vehicle and the optimum route.
Abstract: A vehicle navigation system in which an optimum route from a starting point to a destination is computed in accordance with map information. A route guide is displayed in accordance with the current position of the vehicle and the optimum route. The route guiding information includes an image indicating the direction of vehicle progress from an intersection where the vehicle should turn, the name of the road the vehicle is to enter, and the name of a road intersecting the road on which the vehicle is currently running between the current position of the vehicle and the intersection where the vehicle should turn.

TL;DR: A vehicular-ad-hoc-network- (VANET-) based route planning algorithm is proposed to calculate the route with the shortest travelling time or the lowest fuel consumption, depending on two real-time traffic information sources, which have not been used in traditional GPS navigation applications.
Abstract: Most current navigation devices or apps, based on the global positioning system (GPS), only adopt static information for route planning. Although some are equipped with an RDS-TMC receiver to receive real-time traffic events, many of these real-time traffic events are irrelevant to the vehicle. This paper offers three major contributions. First, a vehicular-ad-hoc-network- (VANET-) based () route planning algorithm is proposed to calculate the route with the shortest travelling time or the lowest fuel consumption, depending on two real-time traffic information sources, which have not been used in traditional GPS navigation applications. The first traffic information source is the recorded traffic information of the road segment that the vehicle has passed through. It is further exchanged between vehicles through an IEEE 802.11p wireless link. The second traffic information is provided by Google Maps. A GPS navigation app is then implemented on the Android platform to realize . Finally, simulations for six route planning algorithms are executed by VANET simulator The ONE, in one congested and one noncongested time period, respectively. In summary, achieves significant reductions in both the average travelling time and fuel consumption of the planned route, as compared to traditional route planning algorithms.

TL;DR: In this article, a synchronization service of navigation data, called Browserver, is presented, responsible for keeping user navigation information so that it can be recovered from any device connected to the Internet.
Abstract: People spend a lot of time navigating on the web. When moving from one computer device to another, it would be useful to have access to the navigation data produced in the previous web session. In this article, a synchronization service of navigation data, called Browserver, is presented. It is responsible for keeping user navigation information (tabs, history, forms, cookies, etc.) so that it can be recovered from any device connected to the Internet. Finally, Browserver performance is compared to a similar service, according to hardware and network consumption metrics.

TL;DR: A system which integrates a geographic information system of a building with computer vision using only one camera, for example, the one of a mobile phone, which improves the autonomy of persons with a very low vision during indoor navigation.
Abstract: This paper presents a system which integrates a geographic information system of a building with computer vision. It uses only one camera, for example, the one of a mobile phone. Visual landmarks, such as frontal and lateral doors, stairs, signs, and fire extinguishers, are employed for localizing the user in the building and for tracing and validating a route for the user's navigation. The developed system clearly improves the autonomy of persons with a very low vision during indoor navigation.
