  The information processing unit 10 is configured by, for example, a CPU (central processing unit), and controls each element configuring the navigation device 100 according to a computer program (computer program for controlling the operation of the navigation device) stored in the storage unit 21. Control and search route search function, route guidance function, service information (store information such as gasoline stunts, convenience stores, ramen stores, hotels and inns, POI (Point Of Interest) information such as famous facility information, resort information) And various functions for executing various processes including an information search function. Note that these various functions are realized by known techniques included in general navigation devices.

  The input unit 11 includes, for example, a touch panel and buttons, and has a function of outputting an operation signal to the information processing unit 10 according to a user operation.

  The sensor unit 12 includes, for example, an acceleration sensor, and has a function of detecting vibration and acceleration generated in the navigation device 100 and notifying the information processing unit 10 as vibration information and acceleration information. The navigation device 100 of the present example has a function of handling the vibration as a steady vibration in conjunction with the sensor unit 12 and the information processing unit 10 when the vibration that is constantly generated in the navigation device 100 is generated. For example, a plurality of sensor units 12 are provided according to the number of areas to be hit for operation instructions in the casing of the navigation device 100 (the same area (for example, the upper right portion area shown in FIG. 4 described later)). In the case of distinguishing vibrations according to the touch direction to be described later, it is sufficient to provide one for each area), and each is provided in the vicinity of the corresponding area. Note that vibration and acceleration are detected by using a known technique.

  The sound output unit 14 is a speaker, for example, and has a function of outputting sound according to the control of the information processing unit 10. In this example, the navigation apparatus 100 notifies the operation content according to the user's operation through the screen display unit 13 and the audio output unit 14.

  The external information acquisition unit 20 is a device for acquiring various types of information from the outside of the device 100, and has a function of transmitting and receiving data to and from a GPS (Global Positioning System) receiver via a wireless communication network, for example. Communication device. In this example, the external information acquisition unit 20 performs a process of acquiring a GPS signal from the outside or acquiring traffic jam information.

  The storage unit 21 is a storage medium configured with, for example, a ROM (Read Only Memory), a RAM (Random Access Memory), or the like, and stores various data. In this example, the storage unit 21 includes a map information storage unit 21a, a threshold information management table 21b, and an operation content management table 21c.

  The map information storage unit 21a is a storage medium that stores map information.

As illustrated in FIG. 2, the threshold information is information in which a threshold is associated with a road type such as an expressway or a national road. For example, in the case of a road that is maintained such as a national road, the threshold is set so that the sensitivity is low because there is little vibration due to unevenness of the road surface. In addition, highways that run at high speeds have moderate roads, but vibrations caused by running are large, so the sensitivity may be moderate. For a road that is considered to have a large vibration due to road surface unevenness such as a mountain road, a threshold value is set so that the sensitivity is high. The threshold value may be associated with other travel status information indicating the travel status such as the current travel speed (travel speed) instead of the road type. Further, a plurality of types of traveling state information may be associated with the threshold value. In addition, the user may be able to set the threshold size.

  The operation content management table 21c is a table in which operation content information used in special operation processing described later is set.

As shown in FIG. 3, the operation content information includes the ID of each operation content, the frequency of use (or the number of times of use) of the corresponding operation content, the time zone in which the corresponding operation content can be executed, and the corresponding operation content. Executable day of the week, traveling information such as the speed range and moving direction of the vehicle that can execute the corresponding operation content, a position (hereinafter referred to as a touch position) and a direction in which the user strikes the casing of the navigation device 100. (Hereinafter, referred to as a touch direction) is information associated with the operation content. As the operation content, for example, various things such as changing the scale of the map displayed on the screen display unit 13, searching for a moving route from the current position to the home and starting guidance are conceivable. The operation content corresponding to the touch position and the touch direction may be configured to be set by the user. In this case, the navigation device 100 may provide the user with a screen for setting the operation content, and accept the setting of the operation content corresponding to each touch position and touch direction on the screen.

  Here, the touch position and the touch direction in this example will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram illustrating an example of a display screen displayed on the screen display unit 13. As shown in FIG. 4, special portions for informing the user that predetermined operation contents are executed by hitting the vicinity of each portion of the display screen G displayed by the screen display unit 13 to give vibration. Operation notification icons T1 to T4 are displayed. In this example, on the basis of the center coordinates of the display screen G displayed by the screen display unit 13, the area in the upper center part (the corresponding area of the casing K of the navigation device 100, hereinafter the same) is hit downward. And a special operation notification icon T1 indicating that a peripheral search is to be executed, and a special operation notification icon indicating that a process of switching the map to a wide area display (zoom-out process) is performed by hitting the upper right area downward. By tapping T2, the special operation notification icon T3 indicating that the map is switched to the detailed display by tapping the upper right area to the left (zoom-in process), and the lower right area by tapping the area to the left A special operation notification icon T4 indicating that a process for displaying traffic jam information is executed is displayed. That is, four types of operation contents are set. In this example, special operation notification icons T2 and T3 are displayed at corresponding positions in order to notify the player that the operation content to be executed differs depending on the direction in which the player hits the upper right portion of the housing K. It will be done.

Next, the operation of the navigation device 100 of this example will be described.
FIG. 5 is a flowchart illustrating an example of special operation processing that the navigation device 100 executes based on the vibration detection notification from the sensor unit 12. In the special operation process, it is determined whether or not the detected acceleration is generated by the user hitting the navigation device 100 for the purpose of causing the navigation device 100 to perform a predetermined motion, and the user hits it. If it is determined that this is due to, the processing for executing the predetermined operation content is performed according to the hit position and direction.

  The navigation apparatus 100 in this example handles vibrations of the navigation apparatus 100 that are constantly generated due to engine operation and road surface unevenness among vibrations (acceleration) detected by the sensor unit 12 as steady vibrations. That is, the navigation device 10 confirms whether or not the acceleration detected by the sensor unit 12 is an acceleration of a predetermined value or more (hereinafter, special acceleration) different from the steady vibration (step S100). When the special acceleration is detected (Y in step S100), the information processing unit 10 measures the current position using the GPS signal acquired by the external information acquisition unit 20, and stores the map stored in the map information storage unit 21a. It is determined by referring to the information which road type is the road at the current position (step S101), and the threshold is determined by referring to the threshold information management table 21b (step S102).

  When the threshold is determined, the information processing unit 10 determines whether or not the magnitude of the special acceleration is greater than or equal to the threshold (step S103). If it is determined that the magnitude of the special acceleration is smaller than the threshold (N in Step S103), the information processing unit 10 determines that the vibration is not generated by the user hitting the navigation device 100, and ends the special operation process. To do.

  On the other hand, if it is determined that the magnitude of the special acceleration is equal to or greater than the threshold (Y in step S103), the information processing unit 10 determines that the vibration is generated by the user hitting the navigation device 100, and touches from the acceleration information. A position and a touch direction are determined (step S104). In addition, it is preferable to improve the detection accuracy of a touch position and a touch direction by using not only an acceleration sensor but an angular velocity sensor (gyro sensor) together.

  When the touch position and the touch direction are determined, the information processing unit 10 refers to the operation content management table 21c and determines the operation content corresponding to the touch position and the touch direction (step S105). Here, the information processing unit 10 is, for example, which sensor unit 12 (sensor unit that has detected acceleration) that has notified the acceleration information is the sensor unit that is installed corresponding to which area. And the content of the acceleration information, the touch position and the touch direction are specified, and the operation content corresponding to the specified touch position and the touch direction is determined.

  In this example, in the operation content management table 21c, the operation content is associated with the operation content in addition to the touch position and the touch direction. Thereby, the information processing unit 10 can select operation content closer to the user's intention. That is, when the touch position and the touch direction cannot be clearly determined, or when a plurality of operation contents are set for the same combination of the touch position and the touch direction, the information processing unit 10 performs, for example, a frequently used operation. The content is preferentially selected. Note that, similarly to the usage frequency, a predetermined area may be associated with the operation content. In this case, when a plurality of operation contents are set for the combination of the same touch position and touch direction, the operation contents associated with the area (for example, Mt. Fuji) including the current position of the moving object ( For example, the operation of pressing a shutter of a camera mounted on the apparatus 100 may be preferentially selected.

  Then, the information processing unit 10 determines the operation content and performs a process for executing the determined operation content (step S106). Further, the information processing unit 10 updates predetermined information (for example, usage history) among the operation content information in the operation content management table 21c (step S107), and ends the special operation process.

  As described above, in the above-described embodiment, navigation for deriving a recommended moving route to a destination of a moving object (for example, a vehicle) and guiding the moving object to move along the derived recommended moving route. The vibration mode of the vibration of the navigation device 100 (for example, any area of the housing side surface, top surface, or bottom surface determined from the touch position and the touch direction is a source of vibration. Including an operation content management table 21c that stores operation content information in which the vibration generation area hit and the number of vibrations are associated with the operation content, and the casing of the navigation device 100 is hit by the user. The vibration mode of the navigation device 100 is detected, the vibration mode of the detected vibration is determined, and the vibration mode determined by referring to the operation content information Since the selected operation content is selected and the selected operation content is executed, the driver can safely operate the navigation device even while traveling, and the machinery is downsized. It is possible to provide a navigation device that can cope with the above.

  In other words, the configuration is such that a predetermined operation content corresponding to a simple operation of hitting the housing is executed, so that it is possible to reduce the necessity of performing an operation while visually observing the screen display of the navigation device, and it is safe even during traveling. The driver can operate the navigation device. Further, by using an acceleration sensor or the like as the vibration detection means, it becomes possible to avoid the necessity of arranging a large number of switches on the display screen or the housing, and it becomes possible to cope with downsizing of machinery. . Furthermore, since the operation instruction is received by detecting the vibration of the vibration caused by the user hitting the user, for example, the driver can easily instruct the operation while driving without using a remote control switch installed in the driver's seat of the vehicle. Can be performed.

  For example, in the embodiment described above, when the driver hits a predetermined area of the casing of the navigation device 100 while the vehicle that is the moving body is traveling, the corresponding operation content processing, that is, the screen on the navigation device 100 is displayed. The processing for changing the scale of the map displayed on the display screen of the display unit 13 is executed, the route search from the current position to the home and the route guidance processing are executed, the direction of travel (the guidance is provided during route guidance) Execute processing to search for and display service information such as parking and toilets (including stores and facilities with usable toilets such as convenience stores, gas stations, and public facilities) that are close in the route It is possible to execute a process of displaying traffic information on the direction (on the guidance route if the route is being guided).

  Therefore, even if it is difficult to stop a vehicle on an expressway or when it is difficult to stop a vehicle such as a narrow road without a shoulder, it is easy and safe for the driver to stop the vehicle without stopping it. Can cause the navigation device 100 to execute a desired operation.

  In the above-described embodiment, the vibration mode is a plurality of predetermined areas in the housing (for example, the center upper side, the upper right part, the right side with respect to the center of the display screen displayed by the screen display unit 13). The lower part.) Includes a vibration generation area indicating which area is the vibration caused by being hit, and the operation content information is information in which different types of operation content are associated with each movement generation area. Since it is configured, a plurality of options can be provided to the user.

  Although not specifically mentioned in the above-described embodiment, the vibration mode includes the number of times of vibration generation indicating how many times the casing is struck continuously, and the operation content information includes vibration It is good also as a structure which is the information with which the operation | movement content of a different kind for every frequency | count occurred. In this case, for example, the sensor unit 12 may be configured to monitor whether additional vibration is generated for a certain period of time after the navigation apparatus 100 starts vibrating. With such a configuration, it becomes possible to provide a user with a large number of options.

  In the above-described embodiment, the operation contents include route search and route guidance to the home, information search of neighborhood area and display of search information, travel direction (travel direction of the moving object. A road in the traveling direction and a predetermined distance (for example, 50 km) from the current position) or a guidance route (for example, a road on the guidance route when route guidance is being performed and a predetermined distance from the current position ( For example, in the case of a configuration including the display of traffic information on a road up to 50 km) and the change of the scale of the displayed map, in general, the navigation device function effective for a traveling user can be achieved by a mobile object. This can be achieved without hindering the driving operation of a vehicle or the like.

  In the above-described embodiment, the vibration detection level information in which the type of road on which the moving body is moving and the vibration detection level (for example, threshold) are associated is stored, and the road on which the moving body is moving is stored. The vibration detection level information (for example, threshold information) is referred to, and the vibration that is equal to or higher than the vibration detection level associated with the determined road type is determined as the vibration caused when the casing is hit by the user. It may be configured to detect. By adopting such a configuration, it is possible to prevent a vibration due to road unevenness or the like from being detected as an operation content execution trigger of the navigation device during traveling. Furthermore, the vibration detection level may be set by the user. With such a configuration, it is possible to more effectively prevent malfunction of the navigation device according to the driving environment of each user.

  In the above-described embodiment, the detected special acceleration has a configuration that detects vibrations that are equal to or higher than the vibration detection level set in advance as vibrations caused when the casing is hit by the user. The value of the special acceleration that is larger than the value assumed as the vibration caused by the user hitting is set as the upper limit vibration detection level, and the magnitude of the detected special acceleration is set to the vibration detection level (here, the lower limit). (Vibration detection level) to the upper limit vibration detection level, it may be determined that the vibration is generated by the user hitting the navigation device 100. That is, in step S103 described above, the information processing unit 10 enters a predetermined vibration level range (a range from the lower limit vibration detection level to the upper limit vibration detection level) in which the magnitude of the detected special acceleration is set in advance. In such a case, it may be determined that the vibration is generated by hitting the navigation device 100 by the user.

  Further, in the above-described embodiment, the position where the casing (for example, the screen display unit 13) of the navigation device 100 is struck when the vibration mode of the vibration of the navigation device 100 due to the struck by the user is determined. However, the vibration mode may be determined only from the hit position. With this configuration, the cost of the sensor unit 12 can be reduced. Even in the case of such a configuration, if there are few places where the operation content is set, the determination can be made accurately.

  That is, for example, the touch direction is detected by adopting a configuration in which the operation content can be set by tapping the upper side and tapping the side surface with respect to the center of the display screen of the screen display unit 13. A load can be avoided. In this case, for example, as shown in FIG. 6, in the vicinity of the area of the casing K hit by the user on the display screen G, the user is notified that predetermined operation content is executed by applying vibration by hitting the vicinity. What is necessary is just to make it display the special operation alert icon T11-T13 for doing. Note that the area to be hit by the user is not limited to the example illustrated in FIG. 6 and may be determined in any manner.

  INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY According to the present invention, it is useful to provide a navigation device that can safely operate a navigation device even while traveling and can cope with downsizing of machinery.
