Embodiment Construction

[0043] refer to Figure 1a , the vehicle navigation system 2 may be configured to collect location data from multiple users and generate aggregated information, including information about the number of system users gathered at a venue. refer to Figure 1b , the vehicle navigation system 2 may be configured to use the aggregated information to determine a venue in order to navigate the vehicle 4 to the venue.

[0044] The system 2 includes a controller 6 and sensors 8 provided to each user. The sensors 8 are configured to collect location data such as longitude and latitude from each user. The sensors 8 may also be configured to determine the orientation of the vehicle 4 . can be used on a personal device 201 (such as a smart phone, Figure 4 shown in ) to determine the user's location using a satellite navigation system such as GPS. The user's location is sent to the controller 6 from the personal device. Controller 6 may be configured to store and monitor the user's cur...

Abstract

A vehicle navigation system for a plurality of users, comprises a sensor provided to each user and configured to collect location data; and a controller configured to receive and analyze the locationdata in order to produce congregation information. The congregation data includes information on the number of system users who are congregating at a venue. The congregation information and location data are used to navigate a vehicle to a venue, the venue being determined using the congregation data.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of vehicle navigation, and particularly, but not exclusively, to using data collected from a plurality of users to select a destination and navigate a vehicle to the selected destination. Background technique [0002] Conventional vehicle navigation systems guide the vehicle to a destination independently selected and requested by the user. Many ride-hailing and ride-sharing services use navigation systems that are enhanced to provide drivers and riders with a way to connect based on their pre-selected departure and arrival destinations. Such systems aim to optimize time, but ignore many aspects of user experience. [0003] These existing systems match users based on routes, for example, if two users request rides to the grocery store at the same time, the system will match them and arrange for them to ride together. [0004] However, upon arriving at the grocery store, a person may find that the grocery sto...
