A display is divided into two regions, a standard region and an enlarged region with a user positioned is at an angle relative to the display. The standard region is formed on a side nearer the user and the enlarged region is formed on a side farther from the user. When the navigation device displays guidance information, information displayed in the standard region is displayed on a standard scale, while information displayed in the enlarged region is displayed enlarged relative to the standard scale. Since the display on the side farther from the user position is thus enlarged, the user can more easily view that guidance information.

An integrated map and navigation program is described. The program provides a first operational mode for browsing and searching a map. The program provides a second operational mode for providing a navigation presentation that provides a set of navigation directions along a navigated route by reference to the map.

The invention provides a navigation apparatus and navigation program which guide when a lane is added to correspond to a road on which a vehicle is traveling. If determination that a course change at a branch point is necessary and a vehicle is traveling on a road in which a lane is added to correspond to a road which is taken after the course change (road before the branch point), 'direction guidance' is provided before a road section in which the lane is added (added lane section) and 'lane guidance' is provided in the added lane section. As above, by switching the 'direction guidance' and the 'lane guidance' depending on whether the vehicle has reached the added lane section or not, and by providing either one of the guidances, a driver can recognize the guidance without confusion. Particularly, when the branch point is branched off at a narrow angle and when the added lane is a lane dedicated to the road which is taken after the course change, by providing the lane guidance, instead of the direction guidance indicating left or right, the guidance becomes easier to understand.

Navigation apparatus, methods, and programs merge and correct a plurality of types of past traffic information. The apparatus, methods, and programs may store a plurality of types of past traffic information, each type of past traffic information having a priority and may merge the stored past traffic information in accordance the priorities. The apparatus, methods, and programs may detect adjacency relationships among the plurality of links; and, if a detected link number indicates that the corresponding link is not adjacent to adjacent links, replaces the detected link number for the link, the replaced link number indicating that the link is adjacent to the adjacent links.

The management system plots the route to be flown in a flight plan, at least partially, by a chaining of published navigation procedures accessible from a NavDB navigation database and constituted of sequences of waypoints and / or turn points associated with specific flight constraints. It comprises a mirror memory storing the latest versions of the published navigation procedures, modified by the crew of the aircraft during the progress of the flight plan and means of substituting these latest versions stored in the mirror memory for the published versions of the navigation procedures during a change in the route predicted in the flight plan obtained by a new chaining of navigation procedures, some of which are taken from the preceding chaining. This makes it possible, during a change of navigation procedure, to take account of specific flight constraints already entered during the progress of the flight but not appearing in the published navigation procedures.

A method for illustrating potential benefits resulting from revised navigation procedures to a customer is described. The method includes preparing a model for a revised navigation procedure, determining a landing probability for both an existing minimum separation procedure and a minimum separation determined utilizing the revised navigation procedure, calculating a benefit associated with a difference in the landing probabilities, and validating the revised navigation procedures through demonstration and use of the revised navigation procedure model on a computer-based flight simulation program.

A navigation apparatus and method are provided. The navigation apparatus includes an image acquiring part that acquires an image of a road feature from a vehicle camera. The apparatus also includes a correction distance table that stores a correction distance to correct a difference between a position of a vehicle when the feature disappears from an imaging area of the camera and a guidance output reference position that is a position of the vehicle when the feature disappears from a driver's view. Further, a judging part is included and judges, based on the image acquired by the image acquiring part and the correction distance stored in the correction distance table, whether the vehicle has arrived at the guidance output reference position. Lastly, the apparatus includes a guidance part that provides guidance regarding the traffic light at a predetermined position having the guidance output reference position as a reference.

The invention discloses an automatic test method and system for a vehicle-mounted navigator. The method includes: when an external guide program is detected, the test guide program is started through the external guide program, and the official navigation program in the flash memory of the vehicle-mounted navigator is After the first preset name of the car navigation system is modified to the second preset name, reset and restart the operating system of the car navigator and enter the desktop of the operating system; then modify the second preset name of the formal navigation program in the flash memory of the car navigator to After the first preset name, an instruction to start the test program is issued and an automatic test of the vehicle navigator is carried out according to the test program. The present invention stores the required external boot program, test boot program and test program in the peripheral terminal according to the needs, and then performs automatic testing, so as to achieve the purpose of not needing to re-upgrade the official navigation program stored in the flash memory of the car navigator many times, and the production process Simplification saves production time and improves production efficiency.

At least a portion of a body (10) is placed in a main magnetic field Bo within the examination volume of a MR device. The portion of the body (10) is subject to an imaging sequence including one or more RF pulses and switched magnetic field gradients to acquire imaging signals. The portion of the body (10) is subject to a navigator sequence applied at least once before, during, or after the imaging sequence. The navigator sequence includes one or more RF pulses and switched magnetic field gradients controlled to acquire navigator signals with a single-point or multi-point Dixon technique. Translation and / or rotation and / or shear data reflecting motion of the body are derived from the navigator signals during the acquisition of the imaging signals. The translation and / or rotation and / or shear data are used for adapting the imaging sequence and / or for motion correction during reconstruction of an MR image.
