Navigation Trip History Handoff Using Mobile Terminal Mediation
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing systems face difficulties in effectively transferring and presenting travel history data, such as visited resorts and restaurants, between vehicles, leading to inadequate information provision to vehicle occupants.
Innovation Solution
A travel history management system and navigation device that includes processors and storage media to transmit and receive trip start and end data, enabling the generation, upload, and presentation of trip data, including images and user feedback, using mobile terminals and servers to facilitate seamless data transfer between vehicles.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If trip data is transferred between vehicles using existing systems, then data transfer functionality is provided, but the ability to effectively present travel history information to occupants is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The mobile terminal device serves as an intermediary between the navigation devices of different vehicles. It receives trip start and end data from the first navigation device, generates comprehensive trip data including images and user feedback, and transfers this enriched information to the second navigation device. This intermediary approach enables effective presentation of travel history to occupants while maintaining systematic data management.
Solution Approach 2:
The system creates a digital copy of the trip experience by generating trip data that includes not only basic travel information but also images captured during the trip and user feedback. This comprehensive copy of the travel experience can be presented to occupants of the new vehicle, effectively transferring the essence of the travel history without requiring physical presence in the original vehicle.
2Loss of information
If comprehensive trip data including images and user feedback is generated and transferred, then information quality improves, but system complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The system segments the trip data generation and transfer process into distinct functional modules: the first navigation device captures basic trip information, the mobile terminal device generates and enriches the trip data with images and user feedback, and the second navigation device receives and presents the comprehensive trip data. This segmentation manages system complexity by distributing functions across multiple devices while achieving comprehensive information transfer.
Solution Approach 2:
The mobile terminal device performs multiple functions within the trip data transfer system: it receives trip start and end data, generates trip data, incorporates images and user feedback, and transfers the comprehensive information to the second navigation device. This multi-functionality reduces the need for separate specialized devices, managing system complexity while enabling rich information transfer.

AI summary
A travel history management system includes one or more navigation devices and a mobile terminal device. The one or more navigation devices each include: one or more first processors; and a first storage medium containing a first program including one or more first commands. The one or more first commands cause the one or more first processors to transmit trip start data and trip end data to the mobile terminal device. The mobile terminal device includes one or more second processors; and a second storage medium containing a second program including one or more second commands. The one or more second commands cause the one or more second processors to receive the trip start data and the trip end data, and generate the trip data based on the trip start data and the trip end data.
