Abstract: A method and system for assisting a traveler. The method initiates a travel segment and interfaces with providers of data regarding geolocation, points of interest, or traffic. During execution of the method, the system monitors geolocation data. The system can predict a route of travel, basing that prediction on past geolocation data or directions from a geolocation provider. Also during execution of the method, the system can identify data of interest to a user, based on input initiated by the user. Further, the system can solicit input from the traveler, or it can perform tasks based on predefined criteria, such as locating and identifying points of interest between two geographic locations. During operation, system can provide information to the traveler relating to data of interest. The system includes a client unit and a server unit, the client unit being mounted in an automotive vehicle or in a communications device.

Abstract: A microphone isolation system. The system includes an isolation member, a support member, and at least two compliant members. The at least two compliant members mechanically support the isolation member and isolate the isolation member from vibrations. The at least two compliant members can also isolate the support member from any vibratory excitation source coupled to and/or supported by the isolation member.
