Abstract

Une unité de réception d'informations d'utilisateur (103) reçoit, d'un corps mobile, des informations d'utilisateur exprimées dans une langue utilisée par l'utilisateur du corps mobile, et une unité de réception d'informations de corps mobile (101) reçoit des informations de corps mobile comprenant au moins la position réelle et un point de cheminement de destination du corps mobile. De plus, une unité de production d'informations de guidage (102) produit des informations de guidage relatives au guidage sur une route menant au point de cheminement de destination reçu par l'unité de réception d'informations de corps mobile (101), et une unité de conversion d'informations de guidage (104) transforme, sur la base des informations d'utilisateur reçues par l'unité de réception d'informations d'utilisateur (103), les informations de guidage produites par l'unité de production d'informations de guidage 102) dans la langue appropriée à l'utilisateur. Par ailleurs, une unité de transmission (105) transmet les informations de guidage ainsi transformées par l'unité de conversion d'informations de guidage (104) au corps mobile.
