Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Loss of information
If voice broadcast navigation is used at preset maneuver points, then the navigation system can provide basic direction information, but the navigation information is limited and not intuitive, resulting in low navigation efficiency
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a virtual copy of the real-world environment through 3D mapping and virtual scene rendering. This virtual copy includes virtual road surfaces, virtual buildings, and virtual navigation agents that mirror the actual physical environment, allowing users to navigate through an intuitive visual representation rather than relying on limited voice instructions
Solution Approach 2:
The patent transitions from traditional 2D map-based navigation to a 3D immersive virtual environment. By adding the vertical dimension and creating three-dimensional virtual scenes with depth, perspective, and spatial relationships, the system provides much richer and more intuitive navigation information that enhances user understanding and decision-making
2Illumination intensity
If traditional navigation methods are used, then the system structure is relatively simple, but the navigation information is not intuitive and visual, limiting user understanding
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a virtual navigation agent as an intermediary between the navigation system and the user. This virtual character acts as a guide that visually demonstrates navigation actions, provides directional cues through body orientation and movement, and enhances user comprehension without requiring the user to directly interpret complex navigation data
Solution Approach 2:
The patent utilizes visual enhancements including color coding to indicate different navigation states, directions, and important elements. The virtual environment employs color variations to highlight turn directions, distinguish different road types, and draw attention to critical navigation information, making the system more intuitive despite increased complexity
3Measurement precision
If satellite signal-dependent navigation is used, then the system can provide location data, but the navigation is not intuitive and provides limited information, resulting in low efficiency
Solution Approach 1:
The patent creates a virtual replica of the user's current environment based on their satellite-derived position. This virtual copy includes accurate 3D representations of surrounding roads, buildings, and landmarks that correspond to the user's actual location, transforming precise position data into an intuitive visual context that enhances navigation efficiency
Solution Approach 2:
The virtual navigation agent serves as an intermediary that translates precise satellite position data into intuitive visual guidance. The agent's position, orientation, and demonstrated actions provide contextualized navigation instructions that are easier to understand and act upon than raw position coordinates or voice directions alone
Data Source
AI summary
A navigation method and a navigation apparatus are provided. The method includes: generating a navigation route based on a navigation start-point position and a navigation end-point position; acquiring a navigation scenario of a terminal device in a process of performing a navigation based on the navigation route; acquiring, in response to determining that the navigation scenario is a preset target navigation scenario, special effect data of a virtual navigator matching the target navigation scenario; and presenting the special effect data of the virtual navigator through the terminal device.
