  • Patent number: 7389179
    Abstract: A system and method for providing navigational information to a user connected in real-time, such as through a wireless telephone, PDA, or other device. The system provides navigational information to the user in the form most useful to the user, such as according to landmarks, or the number of blocks until the next action. The system also provides directions to points of interest along the user's route. Further, the system allows the user to suspend and resume a session. Also, the system varies the sampling rate at which the user's location is examined, to enhance efficiency and convenience.

  • Publication number: 20060116818
    Abstract: Method and system for providing multiple route navigation guidance. The system comprises a client integrated with a mobile communication device (e.g. PDA, cellular telephone, etc.) and a server communicating via wireless carriers and networks. The server obtains a user's initial position, a user-designated destination, and calculates multiple routes from the user's initial position to the destination. The client displays turn-by-turn navigation instructions to the user using the multiple routes sent by the server. If the client detects a deviation from the multiple routes, the client sends a request for new multiple routes to the server. Then, the server recalculates new multiple routes from the user's current position to the destination and sends navigation information related to the new multiple routes to the client.

  • Patent number: 6654683
    Abstract: In an Interactive Real-Time Distributed Navigation system a method and system is disclosed for implementing a warm start/cold start option. Through selection of the warm start option, an interactive session for providing navigational directions to a user is more quickly established because a user's position is assumed not to be ambiguous. A method of the invention verifies this assumption. Through selection of the cold start option, the method of the invention seeks to remove ambiguity in a user's position before providing navigational directions. If, however, a user's position is not ambiguous, the method of the invention reverts to a warm start condition to immediately transmit navigational directions to the user.
