Route optimization including points of interest

A method for navigation includes receiving in a mobile computing device (24) a designation of an origin (32, 92) and a destination (34, 94) of an itinerary of a user of the device. An optimal primary route (96) is computed from the origin to the destination. Multiple points of interest (40, 98, 100) are identified in proximity to the optimal primary route. A respective first optimal sub-route (42) is computed between the origin and each of the points of interest, and a respective second optimal sub-route (44) is computed between the destination and each of the points of interest. One or more alternative routes (102, 104) from the origin to the destination via one or more of the points of interest are presented to the user on the mobile computing device, by combining the respective first and second optimal sub-routes computed for the one or more of the points of interest.

Voice and touch user interface

Various examples are directed to an electronic device capable of touch input through a touch-sensitive surface and/or voice input through a microphone. In some examples, the electronic device may be used in an automobile. For example, some or all of the electronic device may be mounted in a dashboard for use while driving. The electronic device may provide informational content, entertainment content, navigation, and communication features in such a manner that user interaction may be minimized, thus providing a safe driving experience. This can be accomplished by performing tasks and presenting content automatically, without the need for user input, and by allowing user input through voice controls, touch screen controls, and/or physical controls mounted on the dashboard or steering wheel, among other possibilities.

A method for filtering in ranging of a UAV is provided, which is based on a characteristic that velocities of the UAV change continuously during a moving process. A current velocity of the UAV is obtained via seeking difference of distances measured by the sensor, then a variance of continuous velocities is calculated and it is determined whether a current distance is valid according to the variance. The general process of the method is as follows. First, initial distances measured by the sonar sensor are acquired, secondly, it is determined whether a new distance is valid according to the initial distances, if the new distance satisfies a curtain condition, the new distance is considered to be valid and the initial distances are updated; if the new distance does not satisfy the curtain condition, a distance is estimated and used as the current distance and the initial distances are maintained.
