Description

Destination setting method using wireless telephone in navigation system {DESTINATION SETTING METHOD USING CELLUAR PHONE NUMBER IN NAVIGATION SYSTEM}

The present invention relates to a destination setting method using a wireless telephone number that can set a destination by tracking the location of a user having a wireless telephone such as a mobile phone in a navigation system for guiding a moving route such as a vehicle or informing a destination.

Conventionally. A navigation system for guiding a route through a navigation device (ie, a vehicle navigation terminal mounted on a vehicle) in a vehicle, where a destination of a moving or stationary destination is set as a destination and the navigation device is set to a destination. If you want to set your own location as a destination by confirming your location, ask the other person's location directly through your cell phone to check the destination, and then enter the latitude or coordinates of the latitude or go through the database of the vehicle navigation system. I had to search for a destination. Therefore, in addition to the inconvenience of confirming the destination, it is practically impossible to store detailed information about the destination as a database due to the capacitive limitation of the vehicle navigation terminal in the process of setting the confirmed destination to the vehicle navigation terminal. Difficult to search because there is no operation button or text input keyboard that can input operation or is very coarse.

However, when the capacity of the vehicle navigation terminal itself is increased and an operation button or a keyboard is used as an input means, the terminal itself becomes large in size and costs. There were problems in space constraints and practicality.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve such a problem, and it is possible to reduce the basic data capacity stored in the terminal without expanding the capacity or function of the terminal itself, and to set the location of the user of the wireless telephone as a destination or presently own location. In the process of setting a destination by confirming to the other party, a navigation system provides a method for setting a destination using a wireless telephone in order to provide a technology that enables simple, efficient and accurate destination setting.
