Interactive Server System for Single-Step Vehicle Navigation Initiation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current vehicle navigation systems require complex user interactions, such as entering destination information multiple times, leading to low efficiency and poor user experience in initiating navigation.
Innovation Solution
An interactive server system that receives location and indication information from a client, obtains the address of an in-vehicle terminal, and sends location information to the terminal to generate a navigation path, allowing for single-step navigation initiation and integration of location information from various sources.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a user enters destination information and initiates navigation through multiple interactions with the in-vehicle terminal, then the navigation can be started, but the operation process becomes complex and time-consuming
Solution Approach 1:
The server performs preliminary actions by obtaining the user's location information and pre-processing navigation data before the user actually initiates navigation. The server retrieves location from multiple sources (GPS, interactive terminal) and prepares navigation information in advance, so when the user simply clicks a button, the navigation starts immediately without requiring multiple interactions with the in-vehicle terminal.
Solution Approach 2:
The server acts as an intermediary between the user and the in-vehicle terminal. Instead of the user directly interacting with the terminal multiple times, the user interacts with the server through an interactive terminal (mobile phone, tablet), and the server handles all the complex navigation setup and communicates with the in-vehicle terminal in the background, simplifying the user's operation to a single click.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the system integrates location information from multiple sources and enables simultaneous navigation for multiple terminals, then the system's versatility and resource richness are enhanced, but the system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The server is designed with multi-functionality to handle various types of location information from different sources (GPS modules, interactive terminals, social media applications) and to serve multiple in-vehicle terminals simultaneously. The same server infrastructure and processing logic are reused across different scenarios and devices, achieving versatility without proportionally increasing complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The system automatically retrieves and integrates location information from multiple sources without requiring user intervention. The server autonomously queries GPS modules, interacts with terminal devices, fetches location data from social media applications, and consolidates this information. This self-service approach allows the system to handle complex multi-source integration transparently, maintaining simplicity from the user's perspective while achieving high versatility.

AI summary
A method of an interactive server system for providing location information to an in-vehicle terminal includes receiving the location information and indication information from an interactive client, the indication information indicating address information of the in-vehicle terminal, obtaining the address information of the in-vehicle terminal based on the received indication information, sending the location information to the in-vehicle terminal according to the address information of the in-vehicle terminal, and instructing the in-vehicle terminal to generate a navigation path according to the location information.
