Systems and methods of viewing, modifying, and interacting with "path-enhanced" multimedia
ActiveUS6906643B2Navigational calculation instrumentsControl with pedestrian guidance indicatorPosition dependentObject storage
“Path-enhanced” multimedia (PEM) data may be viewed, modified, or interacted with according to user selected views which determine the manner in which at least a portion of the PEM data is displayed. The PEM data is stored in a data structure as a scrapbook object including first data object types corresponding to the PEM data and second object types corresponding to the different view types. The scrapbook object data structure lends itself to displaying portions of the PEM data according to selected views that correspond to a particular time and place or to a particular time ordered sequence of locations (i.e., a particular path segment) and / or can be enhanced with other multimedia content related to that time and place or to that path segment, thereby providing a more interesting and effective display of the “path-enhanced” recorded events. For example, the time and location of a particular point on the path may be used to locate and append other recorded sounds and images associated with that time and / or that location, to thereby provide an enhanced presentation of a trip or other path-oriented experience. Moreover, the data defining any such associated path may also be edited to thereby define a new or modified path.

The present invention provides a unique system and method that facilitates navigating smoothly and gracefully through any type of content viewable on portable devices such as cell-phones, PDAs, and / or any other hybrids thereof. In addition, such navigation can be performed while preserving perspective and context with respect to a larger amount of content. Pointing devices can also be used to navigate through content—the amount or detail of the content being dependant on the speed of the pointing device. Additionally, a semi-transparent overview of content can be overlaid a zoomed-in portion of content to provide perspective to the zoomed in portion. Content shown in the semi-transparent overview can depend on the location of the pointing device with respect to the content.

Navigation apparatus
InactiveUS20050021227A1Easy to specifyInstruments for road network navigationArrangements for variable traffic instructionsTraffic congestionWalking time
When a vehicle is traveling along a route toward a parking lot located near a destination facility, if traffic congestion along the route is detected, the navigation apparatus searches for an alternative parking lot that allows a user to reach the destination facility earlier than can by using the original parking lot. If such an alternative parking lot is detected, the predicted driving time and the predicted walking time are displayed together with a route to the parking lot. When traffic congestion is encountered when transporting a passenger by vehicle, the navigation apparatus determines a quicker way for the passenger to reach the destination facility. If the navigation apparatus detects that the passenger can reach the destination facility earlier if the passenger disembarks the vehicle and walks to the destination facility, the navigation apparatus presents information indicating a best point at which the passenger should disembark the vehicle.

Navigating a Customer to a Parking Space
InactiveUS20170148324A1Control with pedestrian guidance indicatorDetection of traffic movementParking spaceNavigation system
The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for navigating a customer to a parking space. A customer sends a request from a mobile device or vehicle navigation system for directions to a parking space in a store parking lot. A store computer receives the customer request along with parking requests from other customers. The store computer identifies appropriate candidate parking spaces utilizing camera systems, sensor systems, location of customer mobile devices, and point-of-sale (POS) activity. The store computer identifies the candidate spaces for each customer based on their proximity to the store and their parking preferences. The store computer transmits navigation instructions to parking spaces via the customer mobile devices and / or the vehicle navigation systems. The parking space is stored in the customer mobile device and is used by the customer upon exiting the store for navigation instructions back to the customer parking space.

InactiveUS6654683B2Reduce server trafficReduce traffic problemsInstruments for road network navigationControl with pedestrian guidance indicatorReal time navigationAmbiguity
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.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to arranging a pickup between a driverless vehicle and a passenger. For instance, dispatch instructions dispatching the vehicle to a predetermined pickup area in order to pick up the passenger are received by the vehicle which begins maneuvering to the predetermined pickup area. While doing so, the vehicle receives from the passenger's client computing device the device's location. An indication that the passenger is interested in a fly-by pickup is identified. The fly-by pickup allows the passenger to safely enter the vehicle at a location outside of the predetermined pickup area and prior to the one or more processors have maneuvered the vehicle to the predetermined pickup area. The vehicle determines that the fly-by pickup is appropriate based on at least the location of the client computing device and the indication, and based on the determination, maneuvers itself in order to attempt the fly-by pickup.
