Navigation Camera Angle Adjustment for Parking Visibility
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional navigation devices preset camera angles and provide limited information, requiring users to manually adjust angles and search for additional location-related information, which is inconvenient and lacks visibility.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that automatically change the camera angle of a navigation screen based on measured location events, such as entering a parking lot or elevator, and provide intuitive additional information like parking lot drawings or travel routes, enhancing visibility and convenience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If a conventional navigation device presets a camera angle and outputs a map image at the set angle, then the device structure is simple, but the user cannot view the map image at a specific angle without manual input
Solution Approach 1:
The navigation device automatically changes the camera angle based on the detected event (e.g., entering a parking lot or elevator) without requiring user input. The system serves itself by autonomously determining when angle adjustment is needed and executing the change, thereby improving ease of operation while avoiding the need for complex manual control mechanisms.
Solution Approach 2:
The device pre-configures multiple camera angles and event-triggered angle change logic in advance. When an event is detected, the system already has the appropriate angle change prepared and can execute it immediately, eliminating the need for real-time user input while maintaining simple device structure.
2Loss of information
If a conventional navigation device provides only map information, then the information display is simple, but the user cannot easily acquire additional location-related information
Solution Approach 1:
The navigation device integrates multiple functions into a single system: it provides basic map navigation while also detecting events (parking lots, elevators), determining appropriate camera angles, and displaying additional location-related information. This multi-functional approach ensures comprehensive information availability without requiring separate complex information systems.
Solution Approach 2:
The system uses event detection as an intermediary mechanism that triggers both camera angle changes and additional information display. This intermediary approach allows the system to seamlessly integrate multiple information types and functions while maintaining a relatively simple overall structure, as the event detection acts as a unifying trigger for all enhancements.
3Ease of operation
If the navigation device automatically changes camera angle based on location events, then the visibility and convenience are improved, but the device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The navigation device autonomously detects location events (such as entering a parking lot or elevator) and automatically executes camera angle changes without user intervention. This self-service capability improves navigation convenience by eliminating manual angle adjustment while keeping the added complexity manageable through automated event-triggered logic.
Solution Approach 2:
The system changes the camera angle parameter automatically based on detected location events. By using parameter changes (camera angle) as a direct response to event detection, the system achieves improved convenience with minimal added complexity, as the angle change is a straightforward parameter adjustment rather than a complex mechanical or computational system.

AI summary
Methods for providing a navigation service are proposed. According to an embodiment, a method comprises displaying a navigation screen related to a first camera angle, determining whether an event related to an angle change has occurred based on a measured location, changing a camera angle of the navigation screen from the first camera angle to a second camera angle based on determination that the event related to the angle change has occurred, and displaying an information related to the event.
