GUIDANCE METHOD, GUIDANCE ARRANGEMENT, CORRESPONDING COMPUTER PROGRAM AND PROCESS-READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM

Technical area

The invention relates to a route guidance method and an arrangement for carrying out such as well as a corresponding computer program and a corresponding processor-readable storage medium, which can be used in particular in conjunction with a navigation system to comprehensively inform a user of the route guidance method with regard to route planning and to make appropriate decision options available give.

State of the art

Today's navigation systems, such as known from US 5 291 412 A, calculate the shortest, fastest or "optimal" (usually a mixture of these two criteria) route from the current vehicle position to the desired destination. Current traffic reports are taken into account so that systems with the appropriate TMC connection (TMC = Traffic Message Channel) can avoid traffic jams if the alternative route is more favorable. The driver decides before the journey on which type of route (fastest or shortest or optimal) he wants to be guided. He then receives exactly the best driving recommendation in every driving situation.

Even if the driver at a crossroads theoretically has several possibly almost equal opportunities for driving, because for example, the remaining travel time and the remaining distance to the destination are almost the same, he is given only exactly one driving instruction (or no recommendation given if he, for example of the Main street should continue straight ahead). The driver can not judge how important it is to follow exactly this instruction. It would be interesting for him in some situations to know that he can also perform an alternative driving maneuver possibly without much loss of time, for example, because he drives straight on the left lane and should turn right, straight ahead but also quite a possible driving alternative.

In addition, navigation systems for pedestrians, cyclists, inline skaters or other recreational athletes are provided. Such navigation systems are then usually installed on mobile terminals, such as personal digital assistants (PDAs), electronic travel guides or mobile phones. The disadvantages described for conventional vehicle navigation also occur in principle in navigation systems for this user group.

Presentation of the invention, object, solution, advantages

It is thus the object of the present invention to provide a route guidance method and an arrangement for carrying out such as well as a corresponding computer program and a corresponding processor-readable storage medium, which avoid the abovementioned disadvantages and in particular provide information about alternative route guidance.

This object is achieved by the features in claims 1, 27, 28 and 29. Advantageous embodiments of the invention are contained in the subclaims.

A particular advantage of the route guidance method according to the invention using a navigation system or route guidance system is that a user of the route guidance method is informed about alternative routes (= routes). This is achieved by additionally issuing at least one maneuver recommendation or orientation recommendation by the navigation system. In addition, the term maneuver recommendation is used in the sense of "driving recommendation" and / or "orientation recommendation" and thus includes walking recommendations, skate, movement and orientation recommendations for the specified user groups and uses. Preferably, the maneuver recommendations become one Given decision point at which the user has to decide which way he wants to take at this junction or landmark.

According to the invention, as alternative routes only the alternative routes are considered at the time, which is at the upcoming decision point in

Distinguish route course. The main route is the preferred route to

(Main goal. Preferably, characterized in that the calculated route to the destination of the predetermined

Criteria is best, or the user has specified this route or the user follows a suggested by the navigation system route by following the driving instructions.

When using the route guidance method according to the invention in vehicles, such as motor vehicles, motorcycles, but also bicycles, driving knowledge can be increased by knowing possible alternatives beyond, because the driver can decide which, depending on the traffic situation

He wants to follow the route, for example, the alternative "driving straight ahead" prefer the "right turn" when he is currently on the left lane and high traffic prevails. An analogous situation for pedestrians, for example, is that the pedestrian does not know how important it is right now to cross the street (the traffic light of which is perhaps red or that has a lot of traffic), or if on the alternative route, this traffic light without (larger ) Can avoid loss of time. This increase in safety and / or comfort is achieved by outputting driving instructions for more than one route through the vehicle navigation system as a function of predefinable criteria and their threshold values.

Even for a local expert, it could be interesting information that he comes to the same destination on other routes almost at the same time. He could then, for example, try out different routes and experience a little more variety on his routine rides, which may again lead to increased attention in traffic. Exciting for him could also be the question of whether the optimal route is really optimal or maybe he drives better with a poorer rated route.

A preferred embodiment of the invention provides that maneuver recommendations are issued for at least one further route with the same destination. The in the - A -

Typically, at least two maneuvering recommendations include maneuvering recommendations for at least two routes, for example, a route that is optimal in terms of the given route criteria and / or options (also referred to as the mainline), and at least one alternative route to it. Under route criteria or options are generally understood all the parameters influencing the route extent such as short, fast, low risk, avoidance options, personal statistics, dynamization, risk assessment, beautiful routes, POI-containing routes, etc.

In a further embodiment, the same route criteria and / or options apply to the same destination for the alternative routes as for the main route. The alternative

Route is then e.g. the second shortest or second fastest route. However, other evaluation criteria can also be used.

In another embodiment, for the same destination, the maneuver recommendations are given to an alternative route with other route criteria or options, for

Example with or without toll, with or without TMC, for the shortest or fastest or optimal route, etc. This means that at least one alternative route is calculated with different route criteria and / or options.

Advantageously, different for the calculation of alternative routes

Predetermined weights of driving maneuvers. For example, it can be specified that in the calculation of the alternative routes U-turns are avoided, or that in the calculation of the alternative routes the first or the first piece of road (e) is e.g. to avoid Blockumfahrungen the main line are avoided. It may prove advantageous if the avoidance is a complete avoidance.

Alternatively, avoidance is achieved by a deterioration of or unfavorable rating of this road piece (s), for a user group such as pedestrians, inline skaters, cyclists, etc. also dirt roads, squares, parks, stairs, etc. to be understood as a "street piece" are.

It is also envisaged that maneuver recommendations will be issued compared to the reference distance calculated with a (fixed) default setting. Another preferred embodiment of the invention provides that if the user has not selected a destination and at least one user-typical destination (for example frequent destinations) can be reached from the current position, then at least one maneuver recommendation for the route is given to the user-specific destination that can be reached in each case becomes.

Another preferred embodiment of the invention provides that maneuver recommendations are issued for routes to various destinations or a group of destinations. Such different destinations may, for example, be routes to (different)

villages,

Parking garages,

hotels,

Points of interest (POIs), petrol stations and / or

Restaurants act. The goals are e.g. either along a route (e.g., tourist attractions, petrol stations) or near a location (e.g., car parks, hotels) or in an area (e.g., region or nature reserve) or determined by the navigation system itself (e.g.

Fuel supply is running out)

Typically, but not necessarily, a destination, e.g. the main destination and thus the main route determined by the user. The other goals are determined

either the user by one or more destination descriptions, which determine individual destinations and / or multiple destinations e.g. by selecting a POI category or

the navigation system is governed by specifications e.g. factory, or

they are provided by a third party (e.g., a service provider such as Google, via telematics service, e.g., as "advertising adverts") or

- fed by an external auxiliary device (PND, PDA, notebook, telematics unit, mobile device, ...). and at least one variable destination or is selected by the navigation system. The selection can be restricted by the user by specifications of eg the category. In a further embodiment, if the user has not selected a destination and at least two user-typical destinations are reachable from the current location, then maneuver recommendations are given for the routes to the respective user-specific destinations achievable (eg, an intersection from which left to Munich , go right to Stuttgart). The user-typical destinations are, for example, destinations from the destination memory or address book.

In general, the route guidance method is performed on a mobile terminal, such as a mobile device. a mobile phone, personal digital assistant (PDA), smartphone or staff

Navigation Device (PND) installed and / or integrated into a vehicle navigation system. The route guidance method can therefore be used by a wide variety of users, such as drivers, cyclists, inline skaters and / or pedestrians. The maneuver recommendations are driving instructions for drivers or guides for pedestrians, cyclists or inline skaters, etc.

In addition, further route selection criteria can be used when selecting the routes. For motorcyclists, for example, winding roads are exciting and belong to a beautiful route, but only in dry weather. In the rain, these should be avoided as a risk. For trailer drivers (caravans, trailers) or trucks, turning maneuvers on narrow roads, uphill and downhill slopes are a risk and must be avoided. An exemplary embodiment of the invention therefore provides input (if no corresponding sensor is present) and evaluation options for such

Selection criteria, such as track properties and / or weather conditions before.

Essentially, the issues cited above for vehicle navigation systems also apply to navigation systems used by pedestrians or other lower-speed users. On the other hand, it proves to be advantageous to consider some features that occur in this group of users in the various embodiments. A first aspect is that with this user group, the display or output of the route recommendations is not critical, because, for example, a pedestrian can easily stand still. Therefore, he can also be given more information because he does not have to focus so much on the traffic in parallel. Nevertheless, it does not make much sense to overwhelm it with information, so alternative choices should only be made here if the alternatives do not mean significantly longer time periods or distances. For example, instead of 5 km, which would be acceptable for a vehicle, for example, 300 m would be acceptable here, and a 5% percentage also makes sense.

In a preferred embodiment of the route guidance method according to the invention, it is provided that maneuver recommendations are output as a function of predefinable output criteria. It proves to be advantageous, in particular, if, prior to the issuing of the maneuver recommendation, the time and / or the length required for covering the route are evaluated as output criteria. The

Output criteria are evaluated as difference and / or quotient to the main line or to the reference line. It is particularly advantageous if threshold values are specified for the output criteria. These threshold values can be specified, for example, relative to route length and / or travel time or walking time and / or absolutely. Advantageously, the evaluation result is related to the

Maneuver recommendations are shown, e.g. At the maneuver recommendation, the difference time and / or distance required for the alternative route to the main route.

In a further preferred embodiment of the route guidance method according to the invention, it is additionally provided that at predeterminable intersections for a predeterminable number of departures (that is to say from alternative driving or walking routes) the time respectively required for the travel of the remaining routes (remaining time) and / or the remaining distance lengths be issued. It can be provided to spend the remaining (driving) times and / or the (ride) route lengths for all graduates. Alternatively, but also for intersections with three or more graduates the

Rest (driving) times and / or the (trip) route lengths for (driving) routes with the two or three or even more best ratings being spent. The specifications for the intersections at which drivers are given driving instructions for alternative routes may stipulate that remaining travel times and / or route lengths for alternative routes are output at intersections, of which - at least one main road and / or

- at least one country road

branches.

In another preferred embodiment of the route guidance method according to the invention, it is provided that the maneuver recommendations include information and / or the maneuver recommendations in dependence on route criteria and / or options, ie e.g. depending on the presence of toll,

Traffic jams, tunnels, bridges, danger points, sights (beautiful route), ... are spent. Preferably, this information is displayed in the form of symbols and / or icons related to the maneuver recommendation. Is e.g. On the main line a traffic incident or a tunnel, then preferably a maneuver recommendation to an alternative route without traffic jam or without

Given tunnels and e.g. with respect to the maneuver recommendation on the main line, an icon for traffic congestion or a tunnel symbol is displayed or audibly output (e.g., "Attention, the mainline contains a traffic jam / tunnel.

A preferred embodiment of the route guidance method according to the invention provides that the threshold values of the criteria and / or the route criteria or options to be taken into account can be changed and / or selected by user intervention.

Another preferred embodiment of the invention

Guidance method provides that the order of issuing the maneuver recommendations and / or the preferred representation is determined by the evaluation of the routes.

Another preferred embodiment of the invention

Guidance method provides that navigation or maneuver recommendations are issued acoustically and / or visually. For example, audible maneuver recommendations for one route and visually maneuver recommendations for several routes can be output. It proves to be particularly advantageous in visual output, if the maneuver recommendations depending on the rating in different design, different colors, gray levels and / or different levels of brightness output. This is particularly advantageous for vehicle drivers, since the situation can be easily detected by the driver with an eye at an output of the driving instructions with appropriate emphasis, so that his attention is distracted from the traffic as little as possible.

In a further embodiment, it is pointed out that certain maneuvers mean a great detour and / or loss of time, so that they can be specifically avoided by the user in contrast to equivalent alternatives - so to speak, "negative" maneuver recommendations are given.

An arrangement for carrying out a route guidance method according to the invention comprises at least one chip and / or processor and is combined with a navigation system and arranged such that maneuver recommendations for at least two

Routes are output by the navigation system.

A preferred embodiment of the arrangement according to the invention provides that the arrangement comprises a mobile terminal, such as a mobile telephone, a personal digital assistant (PDA), smartphone or personal navigation device (PND) or the like. This makes it possible, in particular, for pedestrians, cyclists or other users who do not have a navigation device as standard to use the invention.

Another preferred embodiment of the arrangement according to the invention provides that the arrangement is combined with a vehicle navigation system.

A computer program according to the invention makes it possible for a data processing device, after it has been loaded into the memory of the data processing device, to implement a route guidance method

Use of a navigation system, wherein maneuver recommendations are issued for at least two routes by the navigation system.

Such computer programs can be downloaded (for a fee or free of charge, freely accessible or password-protected) in a data or communication system. be provided nikationsnetz. The computer programs thus provided can then be utilized by a method in which a computer program according to claim 24 is downloaded from an electronic data network, such as from the Internet, to a data processing device connected to the data network.

In order to give pedestrians or indoor skiers maneuvering recommendations according to the invention or to guide a motor vehicle according to the invention, it is intended to use a processor-readable storage medium on which a program is stored, which enables a data processing device after it has been stored in the memory

Data processing device has been loaded to perform a route guidance method using a navigation system, wherein maneuver recommendations are issued for at least two routes by the navigation system.

A particular advantage of the invention is the (almost) simultaneous presentation of several nearly equivalent driving instructions. Acoustically, for example, the better statement is spoken first, visually both recommendations are displayed at the same time.

Brief description of the drawings

The invention will be explained in more detail with reference to various embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings. It shows:

Figure 1 representations of possibilities for the optical output of driving instructions for multiple routes.

Best way to carry out the invention

The invention is explained below with reference to various examples of use. For example, the use of the invention in vehicle navigation systems, that is to say in navigation systems integrated in a passenger car, truck, motorcycle or the like, is described. Aspects of exemplary embodiments when using the invention in navigation systems for pedestrians, cyclists, inline skaters, recreational athletes, or the like will be described in greater detail. The examples relate to turn-by-turn representations, but may be analogously transferred to 2D or 3D representations, that is, a representation on any scale of the 2- or 3-dimensional map may be used such that the driver receives a larger overview of the different route course, (for example, 3D representations of the pictograms with route or in the video image / satellite image / animation / simulation / photo.)

To realize an exemplary system according to the invention, a navigation system is sufficient, as is already available today. For optical and / or acoustic

Issuing the maneuver recommendations and / or orientation recommendations, the following alternatives can be provided:

1) At decision points e.g. At intersections, the remaining travel times and / or distances to the destination (visual and / or acoustic) and / or important route differences are indicated as an icon (for example, traffic disruptions) for the possible graduates. (Shown in the figure).

2) In order not to overwhelm the driver with information, time and / or distance are not spent or only for a part of the leavers. Instead of time and / or

Distance output, a ranking of the routes is determined according to a rating, and made clear for example optically by color marking (dark routes are preferable, bright are worse, strong colors are preferred, less favorable routes are displayed transparently). Depending on the color value, the driver then sees at a glance which options really are worthy of discussion.

Alternatively, it is also possible to work with colors, line thicknesses, solid / dashed lines etc. The representation takes place in the display of the navigation system and / or in the head-up display.

3) In a further training, a special identification for the optimal, the shortest and the fastest route will be made, for example, the same color could be used in each case.

4) Another training works analogous to the visual presentation with volume or order of instruction. 5) At the decision points the remaining travel times and / or distances to the destination are indicated only for the two "most optimal" graduates. In a further expansion phase, the information for all "equivalent" graduates could be provided, so maybe more than two.

6) Another alternative output form provides the above-mentioned representations. There is an issue of hints on alternative routes, but only at decision points for which the remaining travel times and distances are close together. Otherwise, as usual, there is only one clear recommendation.

For the time and / or distance differences, suitable thresholds are defined in this case, for example 2 minutes or 2 km. However, the threshold could also depend on the remaining distance (possibly in addition), for example, a driver is more willing to drive 500 km instead of 495 km, while he is probably not ready to drive 10 km instead of 5 km. One embodiment envisages taking the route length and route time into account: maximum time difference = minimum (10% residual minutes, 5 minutes), maximum distance difference = minimum (10% remaining kilometers, 5 km). A preferred exemplary embodiment provides that the driver can influence these thresholds (preferably within certain limits) or that he can also completely switch off this function. This does not happen automatically by the thresholds (0, 0), that is, when the driving time and length do not differ for two different routes, because it is theoretically conceivable that two routes are really completely equivalent. In addition to the thresholds mentioned above, thresholds are also set for certain route options, for example no tunnel / tunnel shorter than 1 km or no toll / toll less than 2 euros.

7) In a specific embodiment, U-turns on the alternative routes are avoided so that they do not immediately return to the best route.

8) In another specific embodiment, the first one (s) becomes (s)

Roads blocked on the best route for the alternative routes, so that in the near field actually a certain bypass is driven.

9) In a further exemplary embodiment it is provided that, in the case of an acoustic output, the order of the instructions and / or the volume Allow differentiation between optimal and suboptimal statements. Preferably, a visual output of information about alternative driving routes takes place in parallel. Another exemplary embodiment provides to give acoustically only one driving instruction, but to indicate for example by a noise word or another speech phrase, pitch, gong / sound, voice or the like that it

(at least) a similar alternative. The driver could then visually capture this if necessary in the display.

The routes to different criteria and / or options (shortest, fastest, optimal, most interesting, most beautiful, least risky) are given in an exemplary

Embodiment of the invention shown in different colors.

The invention is not limited in its embodiment to the above-mentioned preferred embodiments. Rather, a number of variants is conceivable that of the inventive arrangement and the invention

Guidance method even with fundamentally different versions use makes. In particular, any combinations of the above-mentioned embodiments are possible.
