POI List Display with Path Guidance on Navigation Screen
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current navigation systems face challenges in efficiently displaying point of interest (POI) information to drivers without interfering with their navigation, making it difficult for them to recognize relevant POIs while driving.
Innovation Solution
An apparatus and method that display POIs in a list format, allowing drivers to select categories and view POI information simultaneously with path guiding on the same screen, using a controller to manage the display and update information in real-time, with options for Picture in Picture (PIP) or Picture by Picture (PBP) modes to optimize screen usage.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If POI information is displayed on the navigation screen, then POI recognition is improved, but navigation path visibility deteriorates
Solution Approach 1:
The display screen is segmented into multiple regions: a main navigation path guiding area and a separate POI list display area. This segmentation allows both navigation information and POI information to be displayed simultaneously without interfering with each other, resolving the contradiction between POI recognition and navigation path visibility.
Solution Approach 2:
The POI information is displayed in a separate dimensional space (side panel or overlay layer) rather than competing for the same two-dimensional space as the navigation path. This dimensional separation enables both information types to coexist on the screen without reducing the visibility of either.
2Adaptability or versatility
If multiple POI categories are displayed, then POI search capability is improved, but screen complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The POI category display is made dynamic and adjustable. Users can select, deselect, and reorder categories according to their needs. The system dynamically updates the POI list based on selected categories, allowing versatile search capability while maintaining manageable screen complexity through user control.
Solution Approach 2:
The POI display system is designed to handle multiple categories universally through a single integrated interface. The same display mechanism accommodates any combination of POI categories, providing versatile search capability without requiring separate display mechanisms for each category, thus avoiding increased complexity.
3Loss of information
If POI list is displayed simultaneously with path guiding, then information accessibility is improved, but driver attention demand increases
Solution Approach 1:
Different regions of the display screen are assigned different functional qualities: the main area provides large, clear navigation path guidance essential for safe driving, while a separate localized area provides POI list information. This local quality differentiation ensures that POI information is accessible without compromising the primary navigation display quality that drivers need for safe operation.
