Description

本発明は、車載用ナビゲーション装置と携帯電話の連携に関する。   The present invention relates to cooperation between an in-vehicle navigation device and a mobile phone.

近年、情報処理や通信における技術の普及発達に伴い、自動車等の車載用ナビゲーション装置が広く活用されている。車載用ナビゲーション装置は、GPSなどで検出する自車位置を周辺地図上に表示しながら、指定される目的地への経路を計算し誘導案内するものである。   In recent years, in-vehicle navigation devices such as automobiles are widely used with the spread of technology in information processing and communication. The vehicle-mounted navigation device calculates and guides a route to a designated destination while displaying the position of the vehicle detected by GPS or the like on a surrounding map.

この種のナビゲーション装置については、外部の装置と情報の授受により連携させる試みもあり、例えば、パソコン等から転送するスケジュールのデータをもとに車載用ナビゲーション装置でルート探索をする例などがある(特許文献1参照)。
特開2001−296133
As for this type of navigation device, there is an attempt to cooperate with an external device by exchanging information. For example, there is an example in which a route search is performed by an in-vehicle navigation device based on schedule data transferred from a personal computer or the like ( Patent Document 1).
JP 2001-296133 A

ところで、上記のようなナビゲーション装置では従来から、ナビゲーション機能自体は、指定した目的地へ車両を誘導するもので、車両で目的地まで乗りつける場合は問題ないが、例えば駐車場が目的地にないなど、目的地から離れた駐車場所に車を止めてそこから目的地へ移動するような場合、駐車場所から目的地までのルートは考慮外であった。   By the way, conventionally, in the navigation apparatus as described above, the navigation function itself guides the vehicle to the designated destination, and there is no problem when riding to the destination with the vehicle, but for example, there is no parking lot at the destination. For example, when a vehicle is parked at a location far from the destination and then moved to the destination, the route from the parking location to the destination was out of consideration.

このため、駐車場所から目的地が遠い場合、車に乗ってきたユーザは、迷いながら歩くか、又は、持っている携帯電話にGPS利用のナビゲーション機能(「携帯ナビ」と呼ぶ)があればそれに改めて目的地を設定し、その案内を利用する必要があった。   For this reason, when the destination is far from the parking place, the user who has got in the car walks in a confused manner or has a GPS-based navigation function (referred to as “mobile navigation”) in his / her mobile phone. It was necessary to set a new destination and use the guidance.

しかし、携帯電話に携帯ナビの機能が無い場合はそれは不可能であり、さらに、携帯電話がGPSにも対応していない場合は、ナビとして機能しないだけでなく、地図を検索して表示させるにも駅単位くらいでしか調べることができず、現在地を把握する段階から困難が生じていた。   However, if the mobile phone does not have a mobile navigation function, this is not possible. Furthermore, if the mobile phone does not support GPS, it will not only function as a navigation system, but also search and display a map. However, it was possible to check only at the station level, and it was difficult to grasp the current location.

本発明は、上記のような課題を解決するもので、その目的は、目的地への誘導を車載用ナビゲーション装置から携帯電話へスムースに引き継ぐことである。   The present invention solves the above-described problems, and an object of the present invention is to smoothly take over guidance to a destination from an in-vehicle navigation device to a mobile phone.

上記の目的をふまえ、本発明の一態様は、出発地から目的地までの経路を案内する車載用ナビゲーション装置であって、携帯電話へ情報を送信するための通信手段と、目的地から所定範囲内の距離でエンジンが停止された場合にそれを検出し、所定の携帯電話へ、その携帯電話を用いて目的地へ案内する所定の地理情報を前記通信手段により送信する判断送信手段と、を備えたことを特徴とする。   Based on the above object, one aspect of the present invention is an in-vehicle navigation device for guiding a route from a departure place to a destination, a communication means for transmitting information to a mobile phone, and a predetermined range from the destination. A determination transmitting unit that detects when the engine is stopped at a distance within a predetermined distance and transmits predetermined geographic information to a predetermined mobile phone and guides to a destination using the mobile phone by the communication unit; It is characterized by having.

このように、車を止めるまでは車載用ナビゲーション装置で経路案内し、目的地に近付いたが到達前にエンジンが切られた場合、その地点から最終目的地への携帯電話による案内行程を支援する情報を携帯電話へ送ることにより、目的地への誘導を携帯電話へスムースに引き継ぐことが可能となる。   In this way, the route is guided by the in-vehicle navigation device until the car is stopped, and if the engine is turned off before reaching the destination, the mobile phone guide process from that point to the final destination is supported. By sending information to the mobile phone, it is possible to smoothly transfer the guidance to the destination to the mobile phone.

本発明の他の態様では、さらに、前記所定範囲内の距離は、予め設定された第一の距離以上、かつ、予め設定された第二の距離以内であることを特徴とする。
このように、エンジン停止時に地理情報を送信する距離基準として、目的地から第一の距離までは目的地と目と鼻の先で同一視できるため必要性が低く、第二の距離より遠ければ移動途中の休憩や用事の可能性が高いことから、これらを除外することにより、必要かつ十分な無駄の無い情報送信が容易な基準で実現できる。
In another aspect of the present invention, the distance within the predetermined range is not less than a preset first distance and within a preset second distance.
In this way, as a distance reference for transmitting geographic information when the engine is stopped, the necessity for the distance from the destination to the first distance is low because it can be identified at the destination and the tip of the eyes and nose, Since there is a high possibility of breaks and errands during movement, by excluding these, necessary and sufficient information transmission without waste can be realized on an easy basis.

本発明の他の態様では、さらに、前記所定の携帯電話において誘導案内に用いる所定の機能の有無を表す機能情報を取得する機能取得手段と、機能取得手段が取得した機能情報の記憶手段と、前記記憶手段に記憶されている前記機能情報に応じて、送信する前記地理情報の内容を切り替える情報切替手段と、を有することを特徴とする。   In another aspect of the present invention, a function acquisition unit that acquires function information indicating the presence or absence of a predetermined function used for guidance guidance in the predetermined mobile phone, a function information storage unit acquired by the function acquisition unit, Information switching means for switching the contents of the geographic information to be transmitted according to the function information stored in the storage means.

このように、携帯電話について誘導案内に使える携帯ナビやGPSなど所定機能の有無の情報を取得しそれに基いて送る情報をカスタマイズすることにより、携帯電話のモデルによって有無の異なる各機能を過不足なく最大限活用することが可能となる。   In this way, by acquiring information on the presence or absence of predetermined functions such as mobile navigation and GPS that can be used for guidance guidance on mobile phones, and customizing the information to be sent based on it, each function that differs depending on the model of the mobile phone can be used without excess or deficiency It is possible to make the most of it.

本発明の他の態様では、さらに、前記情報切替手段は、ナビゲーション機能を有する携帯電話に対しては、少なくとも目的地の場所を表す目的地情報を送信させることを特徴とする。
このように、ナビ機能を持つ携帯電話には、目的地の情報のみを送ることにより、現在地の検出や地図や経路の表示には携帯電話の能力を最大限活用可能となる。
In another aspect of the present invention, the information switching means further transmits destination information representing at least a destination location to a mobile phone having a navigation function.
As described above, by transmitting only the destination information to the mobile phone having the navigation function, the capability of the mobile phone can be utilized to the maximum for the detection of the current location and the display of the map and the route.

本発明の他の態様では、さらに、前記情報切替手段は、GPS機能を有するが、ナビゲーション機能を有しない携帯電話に対しては、目的地情報を含む地図情報を送信させることを特徴とする。
このように、ナビ機能は無いがGPS対応の携帯電話には、目的地と地図の情報を送ることにより、目的地の再設定や地図情報の取得について携帯電話の側で機能や情報代金や操作手順が不要となる。
In another aspect of the present invention, the information switching means has a GPS function but transmits a map information including destination information to a mobile phone having no navigation function.
In this way, although there is no navigation function, a GPS-compatible mobile phone sends information about the destination and the map, so that the mobile phone can re-set the destination and acquire map information. The procedure becomes unnecessary.

本発明の他の態様では、さらに、前記情報切替手段は、GPS機能を有しない携帯電話に対しては、目的地及び現在地の情報を含む地図情報を送信させることを特徴とする。
このように、GPS機能も無い基本的構成の携帯電話に対しても、目的地、現在地、地図情報を揃えて送ることにより、案内地図をそのまま表示でき、目的地の到達を支援することが可能となる。
In another aspect of the present invention, the information switching means further transmits map information including destination and current location information to a mobile phone having no GPS function.
In this way, even for a mobile phone with a basic configuration that does not have a GPS function, it is possible to display the guidance map as it is by sending the destination, current location, and map information together, and support the arrival of the destination. It becomes.

なお、以上各項については、方法及びプログラムについても同様である。   In addition, about each item above, it is the same also about a method and a program.

次に、本発明を実施するための最良の実施形態について、図に沿って説明するが、背景技術や課題での記述と共通の前提事項は省略する。   Next, the best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. However, common assumptions with descriptions in the background art and problems are omitted.

〔1.構成〕
本実施形態は、出発地から目的地までの経路を案内する車載用ナビゲーション装置(「本装置」と呼ぶ)であって、図1の構成図に示すように、演算制御部であるマイコン1と、フラッシュメモリなどの不揮発性メモリ2と、通信手段3と、を有する。このうち通信手段3は、ユーザの持っている携帯電話K(携帯電話やPHSなど移動通信用端末装置の意味であり、本出願の他の箇所においても同じ)へ情報を送信するためのケーブル接続用コネクタのインタフェースや、携帯電話網経由で携帯電話Kと通信するための独自の携帯電話機能などである。
[1. Constitution〕
The present embodiment is an in-vehicle navigation device (referred to as “this device”) for guiding a route from a departure point to a destination, and as shown in the configuration diagram of FIG. And a non-volatile memory 2 such as a flash memory and a communication means 3. Among these, the communication means 3 is a cable connection for transmitting information to a mobile phone K possessed by the user (meaning a mobile communication terminal device such as a mobile phone or PHS, and the same applies to other portions of the present application). Such as a connector interface for the mobile phone and a unique mobile phone function for communicating with the mobile phone K via the mobile phone network.

また、マイコン1は、予め格納した制御プログラムに従いメモリなどの記憶手段を用いながら、図1に示す下記のような各手段10〜18を実現する。   Moreover, the microcomputer 1 implement | achieves each means 10-18 as shown below shown in FIG. 1, using memory | storage means, such as a memory, according to the control program stored beforehand.

〔2.作用効果〕
上記のように構成された本装置の動作手順を図2のフローチャートに示す。
〔2−1.機能情報の取得〕
まず、ナビゲーション手段12がユーザから目的地の設定を受け付けると(ステップS1)、機能取得手段16が、情報の送信先となる携帯電話Kについて、誘導案内に用いる所定の機能(ここでは、携帯ナビ機能N並びにGPS機能Gとする)の有無を表す機能情報が不揮発性メモリ2にあるか判断し(ステップS2)、なければ、そのような機能情報を入力受付(ステップS3)などで取得し、機能情報の記憶手段である不揮発性メモリ2に記憶させる(機能取得処理)。一旦格納すると次回からは携帯電話の機能情報の入力(ステップS3)は不要になる。
[2. Effect)
The operation procedure of the present apparatus configured as described above is shown in the flowchart of FIG.
[2-1. (Acquisition of function information)
First, when the navigation unit 12 receives a destination setting from the user (step S1), the function acquisition unit 16 uses a predetermined function (here, mobile navigation) used for guidance guidance for the mobile phone K that is the information transmission destination. It is determined whether or not the function information indicating the presence / absence of the function N and the GPS function G is present in the nonvolatile memory 2 (step S2). If not, such function information is obtained by input reception (step S3), It is stored in the nonvolatile memory 2 which is a function information storage means (function acquisition process). Once stored, the input of the function information of the mobile phone (step S3) becomes unnecessary from the next time.

ここで、機能情報の取得は、例えば本装置の設定画面などにおいて、コネクタケーブルを用いる場合の接続設定や、携帯電話網経由で用いる特定の携帯電話の電話番号やメールアドレスなどの情報を指定する接続設定の際に、携帯ナビに対応しているか(すなわち携帯ナビ機能Nを有するか)、GPS機能Gを有するか、の選択肢を手入力でYES/NOなどから選択させることで可能である。   Here, the function information is acquired by specifying information such as a connection setting when using a connector cable or a telephone number or a mail address of a specific mobile phone used via the mobile phone network on the setting screen of the apparatus, for example. In connection setting, it is possible to manually select an option from YES / NO or the like as to whether the mobile navigation is supported (that is, whether the mobile navigation function N is provided) or the GPS function G is provided.

また、その他にも、携帯電話Kがそのような機能情報を接続コネクタやBluetooth(商標)などの近距離用無線通信機能で出力する機能を有する場合は、上記のような接続設定の際に本装置と携帯電話Kとの間での通信を経て、機能情報を本装置へ送らせることも可能である。   In addition, when the mobile phone K has a function of outputting such function information by a short-distance wireless communication function such as a connection connector or Bluetooth (trademark), it is necessary to perform this function when performing the connection setting as described above. It is also possible to send function information to the apparatus through communication between the apparatus and the mobile phone K.

〔2−2.情報送信の条件判断〕
その後、本装置による誘導を開始後は、自車位置取得手段10がGPSやジャイロセンサに基き随時計算する自車位置に基き、ナビゲーション手段12が周辺地図表示や誘導経路の出力など従来同様のナビゲーション処理を行う。
[2-2. (Judgment of information transmission conditions)
Thereafter, after the start of guidance by the present apparatus, the navigation unit 12 performs navigation similar to conventional ones such as a surrounding map display and guidance route output based on the vehicle position calculated by the vehicle position acquisition unit 10 from time to time based on GPS and gyro sensors. Process.

従来と顕著に異なる特徴としては、判断送信手段14が、誘導を開始後に目的地から所定範囲内の距離においてエンジンキーが切られてエンジンが停止された場合にそれを検出し、携帯電話Kへ、その携帯電話Kを用いて目的地へユーザを案内するのに役立つ所定の地理情報を通信手段3により送信する(判断送信処理)。また、この判断における前記所定範囲内の距離は、予め設定された第一の距離(例えば100mなど)以上、かつ、予め設定された第二の距離(例えば500mなど)以内である。   As a feature that is significantly different from the prior art, the judgment transmission means 14 detects when the engine key is turned off at a distance within a predetermined range from the destination after starting the guidance and the engine is stopped, and the mobile phone K detects it. Then, predetermined geographical information useful for guiding the user to the destination using the mobile phone K is transmitted by the communication means 3 (determination transmission process). Further, the distance within the predetermined range in this determination is not less than a preset first distance (for example, 100 m) and not more than a preset second distance (for example, 500 m).

このような判断をより具体的に説明する。すなわち、本装置から携帯電話Kにどのようなときに情報を送るかの送信条件については、まず、本装置は、エンジンを停止したとき(ステップS5)、現在地と目的地を照合する(ステップS6)。この際に確認ポイントは2点で、第一に、現在地と目的地が一致すれば(YES)情報を送信しない。この際、目的地と同一視できる程度の第一の距離(例えば100m)までは一致とみなす。   Such a determination will be described more specifically. That is, regarding the transmission conditions for when information is sent from the apparatus to the mobile phone K, first, when the engine is stopped (step S5), the apparatus collates the current position with the destination (step S6). ). At this time, there are two confirmation points. First, if the current location matches the destination (YES), no information is transmitted. At this time, the first distance (for example, 100 m) that can be identified with the destination is regarded as coincident.

不一致の場合は(NO)、次に、現在地と目的地の距離が(ステップS7)歩けないくらい(例えば500m以上のように予め設定された第二の距離以上)離れ過ぎていれば(YES)情報を送信しないが、それほど離れていなければ(NO)情報を送信する(ステップS8)。   If there is a discrepancy (NO), then the distance between the current location and the destination (step S7) is too far away (for example, a second distance preset in advance, such as 500 m or more) (YES) Information is not transmitted, but if it is not so far away (NO), information is transmitted (step S8).

このように、エンジン停止時に地理情報を送信する距離基準として、目的地から第一の距離までは目的地と目と鼻の先で同一視できるため必要性が低く、第二の距離より遠ければ移動途中の休憩や用事の可能性が高いことから、これらを除外することにより、必要かつ十分な無駄の無い情報送信が容易な基準で実現できる。   In this way, as a distance reference for transmitting geographic information when the engine is stopped, the necessity for the distance from the destination to the first distance is low because it can be identified at the destination and the tip of the eyes and nose, and if it is farther than the second distance Since there is a high possibility of breaks and errands during movement, by excluding these, necessary and sufficient information transmission without waste can be realized on an easy basis.

〔2−3.送信する情報の内容〕
上記のような送信条件を満たしたときに、本装置から携帯電話Kに送信できる地理情報(送信情報)の内容について説明する。まず、エンジンを停止させる地点までは本装置を用いて移動しているため、エンジンを停止する時点で本装置は目的地の情報を記憶している。また、本装置の有するGPSやジャイロセンサーにより、現在地の情報もほぼ正確に記録されている。これら目的や現在地の情報形式は自由であるが、例えば、経度緯度などの座標情報や、マップマッチングで該当する道路リンクIDや施設IDなどの形式をとる。
[2-3. (Content of information to be transmitted)
The contents of geographic information (transmission information) that can be transmitted from the apparatus to the mobile phone K when the above transmission conditions are satisfied will be described. First, since this apparatus is used to move to a point where the engine is stopped, this apparatus stores destination information when the engine is stopped. In addition, the current location information is also recorded almost accurately by the GPS and gyro sensor of this device. Although the information format of these purposes and the current location is arbitrary, for example, coordinate information such as longitude and latitude, or a road link ID or facility ID corresponding to map matching is used.

そして、エンジンを停止したとき、本装置は携帯電話Kに有益な情報を送信するが、ここで送信可能な情報は3種類あり、(1)目的地、(2)現在地、(3)現在地から目的地までの地図、である。これら各情報の表現形式は自由で、各地点や周辺目標物の位置座標、道路の位置などを表す数値データでもよいし、描画済の画像データでもよいし、これらの組合せでもよい。   When the engine is stopped, the device transmits useful information to the mobile phone K. There are three types of information that can be transmitted here: (1) destination, (2) current location, and (3) current location. A map to the destination. The expression format of each piece of information is arbitrary, and may be numerical data representing the position coordinates of each point or surrounding target, the position of the road, etc., drawn image data, or a combination thereof.

〔2−4.送信情報の切替〕
そして、送信の際は、情報切替手段18が、機能取得手段16が取得し不揮発性メモリ2に予め記憶されている機能情報すなわち機能の有無(携帯ナビに対応しているか、及び、GPS機能を有するか)に応じて、送信する前記地理情報の内容を切り替え(情報切替処理)、このように切り替えた情報を判断送信手段14が通信手段3から携帯電話Kへ送信する。
[2-4. (Transmission information switching)
At the time of transmission, the information switching unit 18 acquires the function information acquired by the function acquiring unit 16 and stored in advance in the non-volatile memory 2, that is, the presence / absence of the function (whether it corresponds to the portable navigation and the GPS function). The content of the geographic information to be transmitted is switched (information switching processing) according to whether the information is switched, and the determination transmission unit 14 transmits the information thus switched from the communication unit 3 to the mobile phone K.

具体的には、携帯電話Kについて、まず、携帯ナビに対応しているなら、目的地情報のみを送信し、ユーザは携帯ナビにより目的地に向かう。携帯ナビに非対応でもGPS機能を有する携帯電話Kには、目的地を記した地図情報を送信し、ユーザは地図にGPSで得る現在地を表示させながら目的地に向かう。GPS機能も無い携帯電話Kには、現在地と目的地を記した地図情報を送信し、ユーザはその地図を見ながら目的地に向かう。   Specifically, if the mobile phone K is compatible with mobile navigation, first, only the destination information is transmitted, and the user goes to the destination by the mobile navigation. Map information describing the destination is transmitted to the mobile phone K that does not support mobile navigation but has a GPS function, and the user goes to the destination while displaying the current location obtained by GPS on the map. The mobile phone K without the GPS function transmits map information describing the current location and the destination, and the user goes to the destination while viewing the map.

このように、携帯電話について誘導案内に使える携帯ナビやGPSなど所定機能の有無の情報を取得しそれに基いて送る情報をカスタマイズすることにより、携帯電話のモデルによって有無の異なる各機能を過不足なく最大限活用することが可能となる。   In this way, by acquiring information on the presence or absence of predetermined functions such as mobile navigation and GPS that can be used for guidance guidance on mobile phones, and customizing the information to be sent based on it, each function that differs depending on the model of the mobile phone can be used without excess or deficiency It is possible to make the most of it.

すなわち、情報切替手段18が、ナビ機能を有する携帯電話に対しては、少なくとも目的地の場所を表す目的地情報のみを送ることにより、現在地の検出や地図や経路の表示には携帯電話の能力を最大限活用可能となる。また、ナビ機能は無いがGPS対応の携帯電話には、目的地を含む地図の情報を送ることにより、目的地の再設定や地図情報の取得について携帯電話の側で機能や情報代金や操作手順が不要となる。   That is, the information switching means 18 sends at least the destination information indicating the location of the destination to the mobile phone having the navigation function, so that the capability of the mobile phone can be used for detecting the current location and displaying the map and route. Can be fully utilized. In addition, although there is no navigation function, a GPS-compatible mobile phone sends map information including the destination so that the mobile phone can reset the destination and acquire map information on the mobile phone. Is no longer necessary.

そして、GPS機能も無い基本的構成の携帯電話についても、目的地と、現在地と、地図の情報(経路が記載された地図でも良い)を揃えて送ることにより、案内地図をそのまま表示でき、目的地の到達を支援することが可能となる。   And even for a mobile phone with a basic configuration that does not have a GPS function, it is possible to display the guidance map as it is by sending the destination, current location, and map information (or a map with a route). It becomes possible to support the arrival of the earth.

〔3.主な効果〕
以上のように、車を止めるまでは車載用ナビゲーション装置で経路案内し、目的地に近付いたが到達前にエンジンが切られた場合、その地点から最終目的地への携帯電話による案内行程を支援する情報を携帯電話へ送ることにより、目的地への誘導を携帯電話へスムースに、また、簡単、確実に引き継ぐことが可能となる。これにより、ユーザは駐車場所までは車載用ナビゲーション装置に従い、そこからは携帯電話の情報を見て移動でき、これら二種類の装置の利便性を協調利用可能になる。
[3. Main effect)
As described above, route guidance is provided by the in-vehicle navigation system until the vehicle is stopped, and if the engine is turned off before reaching the destination, the mobile phone guide process from that point to the final destination is supported. By sending the information to be sent to the mobile phone, the guidance to the destination can be transferred smoothly and easily to the mobile phone. As a result, the user follows the in-vehicle navigation device up to the parking place, and can move from there by viewing the information on the mobile phone, and the convenience of these two types of devices can be used in a coordinated manner.
