Vehicle Banner Notification for Destination Information Saving
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Drivers face difficulty in fully understanding various information displayed on navigation systems while driving, making it hard to view information related to the destination at a convenient time.
Innovation Solution
An information presentation apparatus and program that detect the presence of destination-related information when a destination is set by a vehicle occupant, displaying a banner on the screen to notify the occupant, and allowing the occupant to save notifications via voice input for later viewing.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If information is displayed on the navigation system screen while driving, then the driver receives destination information, but the driver cannot fully understand the information due to driving distractions
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary action by displaying destination information in advance through banners before the driver needs to understand it fully. The banner notification appears early in the navigation process, allowing the driver to be informed of destination details (such as arrival time, distance, or special instructions) before the critical driving phase begins, thus resolving the contradiction between information delivery and driver attention safety
Solution Approach 2:
The banner notification serves as an intermediary between the navigation system and the driver. Instead of requiring direct screen interaction or full visual attention, the banner provides a simplified, high-visibility notification format that conveys essential destination information without demanding the driver's full attention, thus mediating between information completeness and driving safety
2Loss of information
If the driver views information on the navigation screen during driving, then destination information is accessible, but the driver's safety is compromised due to distraction
Solution Approach 1:
The system extracts the essential destination information from the full navigation display and presents it separately through banner notifications. This extraction allows the critical information (such as destination name, arrival time, or key instructions) to be communicated without requiring the driver to interact with or fully view the main navigation screen, thus maintaining information accessibility while eliminating the safety hazard of driver distraction
Solution Approach 2:
The banner notification delivers destination information in advance during phases when the driver's attention is less critical, such as during vehicle approach or before turn execution. This preliminary action ensures the driver receives necessary information without needing to focus on the screen during complex driving maneuvers, resolving the contradiction between information accessibility and driving safety

AI summary
An information presentation apparatus includes a controller configured to display on screen, upon detecting presence of information related to a destination when the destination is set by an occupant of a vehicle, a banner notifying the occupant of the information related to the destination, the controller saving a notification made by the banner according to voice input from the occupant.
