Abstract: The present invention relates to a receiving apparatus capable of achieving the efficiency of the antenna utilization among a plurality of tuners, and the apparatus of the present invention comprises a display section displaying individual images with respect to a plurality of viewing directions on the same screen, a plurality of tuners, a plurality of antennas connected to the plurality of tuners, an antenna switching section switching a connection state between the plurality of tuners and the plurality of tuners, a detection section detecting a difference or identification between a first broadcast program corresponding to an individual image with respect to one viewing direction and a second broadcast program corresponding to an individual image with respect to at least one viewing direction other than the one viewing direction, and a control section controlling the antenna switching means on the basis of a result of the detection by the detection section.

Abstract: A navigation apparatus includes a guidance-information creating unit that creates guidance information by acquiring a guiding direction, in which a vehicle should be guided, from preset route information and current position information; an acoustic-image creating unit that creates an acoustic image for notifying a driver of the guidance information; and an acoustic-image control unit that changes at least one of a movement start position of the acoustic image, a direction change position of the acoustic image, a moving amount of the acoustic image, a moving speed of the acoustic image, and a moving locus of the acoustic image according to the current position information and a guiding position in the preset route information.

Abstract: A program guide display apparatus includes control unit for reading program data from RAM for storing a plurality of pieces of program data and controlling display unit so as to change the order of the display positions of program descriptions displayed in a table format in response to input unit and can display the program descriptions in the display order responsive to the operator's liking, improving the convenience of the operator. For example, the program descriptions of the programs of the broadcast station to be checked by the operator can be placed at positions of a display screen where the operator can easily see the program descriptions. For example, the two program descriptions to be compared can be displayed so that they are contiguous. The screen need not be scrolled and the program descriptions of the programs to be checked by the operator can be displayed in one screen.

Abstract: FIG. 1 shows an electronic program guide unique to viewer A grouped from an electronic program guide based on electronic program guide data; the program type is set in an (a) column and the display mode of each program is set in a (b) column. In FIG. 1, a news program is displayed in text and a music program is displayed in an icon of musical notes on a music sheet. A sports program is displayed in an icon of a bat and a ball.
