More particularly, the device of the invention relates to the field of navigation systems and assistance with reading a road profile. Finally, the invention relates to devices for driving assistance on roads with sinuous lines and potentially having many variations of radii of curvature, such as country or mountain roads.
- the lanes are generally reduced in width and the variation of the radius of curvature of the trajectory followed or to follow can be important and sporadic according to the roads. Indeed, a slight turn can follow a significant turn and at times on portions of road the number of turns can become important. Driving on such roads can be dangerous. The driver of the vehicle must then devote all his attention to driving and observing variations in the curvature of the road. As a result, he is constantly called upon to adapt the speed to turns while anticipating them as much as possible.
- Some systems may include an alert device when approaching a dangerous turn, that is to say having a large radius of curvature.
- the mapping devices when coupled with a GPS-based geolocation system, generally provide a plot of the road profile on which the vehicle is traveling.
- One problem is that the performance is not suitable for driving in the country or in the mountains on winding roads. Indeed, the representation of the 3D road profile of a cartography can be distorted in perspective and the driver does not realize the importance of the turns when they are succeed. The analysis of such a representation by the driver requires special attention, inappropriate with the particular driving situation.
- the invention makes it possible to solve this drawback.

- the aim of the invention is to generate a road profile representing the curvature of the route to follow according to a distance to be traveled.
- the invention also makes it possible to increase the perception of the dangers of a winding or tortuous road while at the same time adapting at best a pleasant cruising speed for the passengers.
- the method of assisting road navigation for a vehicle comprises:
- a step of generating a road profile comprising the generation of at least one section comprised between two reversal points in a reference frame in which the radius of curvature is a function of the length of the turn, and
- the repository comprises an ordinate axis representing the distance to be traveled and an abscissa axis representing the value of the radius of curvature of the active trace.
- the current position of the vehicle is an inversion point.
- the first sampling is a function of the zoom factor of a predetermined zone.

- a road profile composed of a curve representing on the abscissa the curvature of the successive turns and in ordinate the distance remaining to be traveled
- a symbol 1 representing the vehicle in a position of the road profile 5.
- the generated road profile 5 comprises a succession of points corresponding to radii of curvature values along the abscissa axis.
- the positive abscissa points correspond to a right turn and the negative abscissa points correspond to a left turn.
- the road profile comprises three sections 2, 3, 4 each corresponding to a turn.
- Each section has a point corresponding to the maximum radius of curvature in the section. This is the top of the horizontal lobes represented.
- the maximum value for each section is denoted respectively RC1, RC2 and RC3.
- Each section 2, 3 and 4 corresponds to a distance to be traveled by the vehicle denoted respectively LR1, LR2 and LR3.
- Each distance to be traveled is read directly on the y-axis.
- the ordinate axis is graduated.
- the set of absolute values of the radii of curvature in the same section is between 0 and RCn, where n is the nth turn to come from the road and RCn is the maximum radius of curvature of the nth turn.
- the general appearance of the curve 5 is represented so that a driver can simply interpret the layout and curvature of the incoming turns, and thus 'in fine' the danger potentially occurring. This interpretation allows the driver to initiate corrective actions of the pace of the vehicle in anticipation.
- the invention allows the driver to evaluate at a glance the number of turns of the path over a predefined distance and the evolution of their curvature.
- the driver can then, upstream, take the necessary actions to maintain a fluidity of pace and take into account a possible braking.
- the data making it possible to trace the road profile from the method of the invention comprises a first step of identifying the taxiway on which the vehicle is engaged.

For example, a sampling ensuring a continuity of the bend radius of curvature readings can be achieved while maintaining a suitable resolution of the generation of the road profile according to the invention.
- a zoom factor makes it possible to enlarge or reduce the predetermined zone in which the road profile of the invention is generated.
- the sampling of the active trace may be in one embodiment a function of the zoom factor.
- the method of the invention comprises a step of calculating, in a first step, points of the active trace corresponding to inversions of angle of curvature. Between two inverted curves, the active trace can be likened to a turn.
- the third step comprises calculating the length of each section of the active path between two successive inversion points.
- the method of the invention comprises a step of generating a road profile comprising at least the generation of a section in a repository in which the radius of curvature is a function of the length of the turn.
- Figure 1 shows a road profile 5 comprising 3 sections.
- a first section 2 represents a curve resulting from a sampling of the radii of curvature between two angle inversions.
- the starting point 6 of the curve corresponds to the current position of the vehicle 1 and defines a first inversion point and the inversion point 7 corresponds to the second point of inversion of curvature angle of the active trace.
- the invention allows at least to represent a turn of the active track, but according to the zoom factor, a plurality of turns can be taken into account.
- an embodiment makes it possible to generate the road profile according to a certain number of reversing points, for example so that the driver can constantly have under eyes for example the next three turns.
- the zoom factor is fixed and represents at least the first point of reversal which corresponds to the position of the vehicle.
- Figure 2 shows a road profile 14 in the event that the incoming turns have a small radius of curvature.
- the sections 11 and 12 are close to the vertical axis thus showing a configuration in which the driver interprets that future turns have a small curvature and do not present a danger requiring a sharp reduction in speed.
- the road profile 14 comprises a first reversal point 16 defined as the active position of the vehicle 1, a second reversal point 17 delimiting with the first reversal point a first section 1 January.
- the road profile 14 comprises a third inversion point 18 separating the sections 12 and 13 of the road profile 14.
- the last section 13 is not between two inversion points and therefore it is extended along the axis to infinity while getting closer.
- the invention makes it possible to represent the trend of the last turn when the last point of inversion is not located in the predetermined zone.
- An embodiment allows a factor or coefficient to be applied to curvature of curves or curve length allowing the driver to more easily appreciate changes in curve curvature.

- the symbology representing the vehicle is fixed in position but is oriented according to the cornering, the vertical heading representing the orientation of the wheels in the axis of the automobile.
- the device of the invention comprises a display so as to represent the road profile and the symbol representing the vehicle.
- this display can be an interface allowing configuration of the representation either with appropriate mechanical selectors or with a software interface such as a tactile or voice interface, or by an interactive menu.
- the display may be the display of another equipment having a menu so as to switch in the representation for generating the road profile of the invention.
- Another embodiment makes it possible to generate the vehicle symbol at the bottom of the display.
- An alternative embodiment makes it possible to represent the symbol of the vehicle in the center of the display.
- An advantage of this solution is to present on the display a portion of road profile to the driver already traveled and a portion to go thus increasing awareness of the ratio of the generated road profile to the actual road profile.
- the invention makes it possible to generate an indication for each section of the road profile indicating the degree of difficulty of the turns to be taken.
- the degree of difficulty is evaluated according to the average or maximum radius of curvature of a section defined between two points of inversion.

- the invention makes it possible to take into account in a nominal mode of representation a distance ranging from a hundred meters to one or several kilometers. This distance can be configurable manually or automatically depending on the complexity of the route.
- An advantage of the representation of such a road profile of the invention is that it is constantly animated as the vehicle moves forward. Indeed, the vehicle is at a first position at a time t1 and evolves in a turn. At a time t2 after the moment t1, the vehicle is in an advanced position in this same turn. The distance of the first section of the first lobe representing the first corner of the road profile has decreased. Thus the road profile of the invention comes alive and allows the driver to become aware of the evolution of its position on the road profile.
