Mobile Object Route Control for Restricted and Pedestrian Roads

The patent segments the route generation process into multiple independent processes: a first process that generates routes including restricted roads when users indicate preference, and a second process that generates routes excluding such roads. This segmentation allows the system to provide specialized display optimization for different road types while maintaining reliable route generation through multiple alternative approaches.

The system dynamically switches between different route generation processes based on user input. When users indicate preference for restricted roads (such as sidewalks or direction-regulated roads), the system activates the first process; otherwise, it uses the second process. This dynamic adaptation resolves the contradiction by making the route generation flexible rather than fixed.

The route generation system is divided into distinct modular processes: the first process handles routes including restricted roads, while the second process handles routes excluding them. Each process is independently structured, making the overall system more manageable despite handling multiple scenarios. This segmentation reduces the perceived complexity by organizing functions into separate, well-defined modules.

The patent introduces an intermediary component that detects user preference regarding restricted roads and routes between the route generation processes and the user. This intermediary layer manages the complexity by handling user input interpretation and process selection, isolating the complexity from both the user interface and the core routing algorithms.

The information processing is segmented into different handling modes: one mode processes and presents detailed information about restricted roads when users indicate preference, while another mode processes information excluding such details. This segmentation allows complete information to be available in the system while presenting only the necessary level of detail to users based on their preferences.

The system applies local quality by providing different levels of information detail in different contexts. When users show preference for restricted roads, the system locally enhances information about such roads; otherwise, it provides standard route information. This localized information provisioning meets user needs without uniformly increasing processing complexity across all scenarios.
