Patent number: 8417453Abstract: Devices, methods, and programs update map information stored in a storage medium based on map update information distributed from a map distribution center. The devices, methods, and programs search for a vehicle route based on the stored map information, perform first guidance along the route, and identify a target area on the route that will be updated when the map information is updated. The devices, methods and programs determine whether the update of the target area will be complete when the vehicle reaches the target area. If the update of the target area will not be complete when the vehicle reaches the target area, the devices, methods, and programs request second guidance for the target area from the map distribution center, switch from proving the first guidance to providing the second guidance through the target area, and return to performing the first guidance when the vehicle exits the target area.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2010Date of Patent: April 9, 2013Assignee: Aisin AW Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yoshitaka Masuda, Kentaro Yanagi

Patent number: 7877187Abstract: A navigation device provides support for a driver of a vehicle in merging from one road onto another road (main road). The navigation device receives traffic information including at least positions and speeds of other vehicles traveling the main road. The navigation device then detects at least positions of inter-vehicle spaces between those other vehicles, using the traffic information, and determines which one of the detected inter-vehicle spaces is most suitable for the driver's vehicle to enter for merging. A beam radiating unit provided in the driver's vehicle is used to form a moving first entry point mark on the road surface to indicate the inter-vehicle space the driver's vehicle is going to enter upon merging.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2006Date of Patent: January 25, 2011Assignee: AISIN AW Co., Ltd.Inventors: Koji Hori, Hidefumi Okabe, Yoshitaka Masuda
