Abstract: A method includes determining a first position of a thumb and a first position of an index finger at a first time; calculating a first distance between the thumb and the index finger at the first time based upon the first position of the thumb and index finger; determining a second position of the thumb and index finger at a second time, the second time being relatively later in time than the first time; calculating a second distance between the thumb and the index finger at the second time, based upon the second position of the thumb and index finger; identifying a pick-up gesture based upon the first distance and the second distance; selecting a first tool from a set of tools based upon a tool position of the first tool, the first tool being a real tool; and assigning the first tool to the pick-up gesture.

Abstract: A method and a navigation device are disclosed for sharing at least one location message with at least one other device. The navigation device includes a receiver to determine a signal strength of a traffic message channel at a location, a memory to store information representing the signal strength of a traffic message channel, and at least one processor to correlate the information stored in memory to compile a traffic message channel resource and select a traffic message channel based on the traffic message channel resource and a location associated with a navigation device. The method includes determining a signal strength of a traffic message channel at a location, storing information representing the signal strength of a traffic message channel, correlating the information stored in memory to compile a traffic message channel resource, and selecting a traffic message channel based on the traffic message channel resource and a location associated with a navigation device.

Abstract: A method and a navigation device are disclosed for sharing at least one location message with at least one other device. The navigation device includes a receiver to receive multiple traffic message channels, an input device to receive a user input indicating a frequency, and a processor to select a traffic message channel based on a signal strength, starting with the indicated frequency. The method includes receiving multiple traffic message channels, receiving a user input indicating a frequency, and a selecting a traffic message channel based on a planned route, starting with the indicated frequency.
