SYSTEM, METHOD, AND APP FOR MANAGING WASTE SERVICES
A system is disclosed for providing a waste management app. The system may have a locating device disposed onboard a service vehicle and configured to generate a first signal indicative of a location of the service vehicle, an input device, and a controller. The controller may be configured to receive a route assignment including waste services to be performed by the service vehicle, and to track movement of the service vehicle during performance of the waste services based on the first signal. The controller may also be configured to provide a graphical user interface for display on the input device, listing the waste services from the route assignment to be performed by the service vehicle and showing a location of the service vehicle relative to at least one location at which the waste services are to be performed.
METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MANAGING NAVIGATION AND TRACKING OF, FOR AND BY PORTABLE AND WEARABLE COMPUTING AND COMMUNICATIONS DEVICES
Embodiments of the present invention relate to route navigation and tracking systems, and methods thereof, and more particularly, to method and system for managing adaptive, dynamic, domain and platform-agnostic navigation and tracking of portable computing and communications devices, thereby facilitating generation of at least one of contextual, configurable notifications, and combinations thereof, for instance at least one of adaptively and dynamically configurable contextual notifications as well as alerts.
Systems and methods for autonomous passenger transport
Vehicles, methods, and computer readable storage media are provided for providing transportation of a gesturing pedestrian by an autonomous vehicle. The vehicle can be operated by identifying that an individual is interested in receiving a transportation. A second vehicle can then receive information about the individual that is interested in receiving the transportation. The first vehicle is then informed regarding the second vehicle.
VEHICULAR DRIVER MONITORING SYSTEM
A vehicular driver monitoring system includes an interior electrochromic rearview mirror assembly and a camera disposed at the interior electrochromic rearview mirror assembly behind and viewing through an electrochromic mirror reflective element into the interior cabin of the vehicle. Supplemental sources of near infrared illumination are integrated into the mirror assembly that, when powered to emit near infrared light, illuminate at least the driver-side front seating area within the interior cabin of the vehicle. Presence of the camera is not readily apparent to an occupant of the vehicle. The camera at least (a) views the driver-side front seating area of the equipped vehicle and (b) views a passenger-side front seating area of the equipped vehicle. The driver of the equipped vehicle is monitored via processing at the processor of image data captured by the camera.
Method of sharing data between electronic devices
Embodiments of the present invention provide a method of sharing data between devices, comprising determining an event at each of first and second devices, determining a time of the event at each of the first and second devices based on data wirelessly received at the first and second devices, and associating the first and second devices via a communication protocol to enable data communication therebetween if a time derived from an identifier of at least one of the devices used in the association is within a predetermined window of the time of the event at the other device.
APPARATUS AND ASSOCIATED METHOD FOR PROVIDING U-TURN GUIDANCE
An apparatus comprising a processor and memory including computer program code, the memory and computer program code configured to, with the processor, enable the apparatus at least to: receive an indication of disruption to a planned route of travel for a road vehicle following the planned route; based on consideration of contextual data in respect of a location in proximity to the current vehicle location against one or more predefined manoeuvering criteria, dynamically identify a U-turn location on the planned route of travel at which it is possible for the vehicle to perform a U-turn onto a different route of travel; and provide an indication of the dynamically identified U-turn location for use in route navigation onto the different route of travel.
WIRELESS USER INTERFACE PROJECTION FOR VEHICLES
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for wireless user interface projection for vehicles are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes the actions of receiving, by a mobile device, a wireless signal transmitted by a processing unit of a vehicle that includes a screen, the wireless signal including an identifier for the processing unit. The actions further include determining that the identifier corresponds to a trusted processing unit to which the mobile device is configured to provide projected UI information. The actions further include automatically establishing a wireless connection between the mobile device and the processing unit that is associated with the identifier. The actions further include automatically providing, by the mobile device, projected UI information to the processing unit for display on the screen of the vehicle.
METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING NAVIGATION SERVICE BASED ON USER DRIVING ROUTE
A method for providing a navigation service based on user driving route is provided, which is executed by one or more processors of a user terminal, and includes, in response to a user input including a metadata search term, outputting one or more user driving routes associated with the metadata search term, in response to a user input of selecting a user driving route from among the one or more user driving routes, outputting information associated with the selected user driving route, and in response to a user input of starting driving guidance, outputting driving guidance information according to the selected user driving route.
MOBILE SEARCH BASED ON PREDICTED LOCATION
A method includes receiving one or more search terms at a mobile computing device while the mobile computing device is located at a particular location. A search query that includes the one or more search terms and a location history of the mobile computing device is transmitted to a server. The method also includes receiving one or more search results in response to the search query, where the one or more search results include content identified based on a predicted destination of the mobile computing device. An interface identifying the one or more search results is displayed at the mobile computing device.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE, NAVIGATION METHOD, AND NAVIGATION CODE
In an aspect, an electronic device includes: a display unit configured to display a guide route to a destination; an operation part configured to receive an input of the destination; and a controller configured to simultaneously display a plurality of moving routes to the destination using a plurality of moving means on the display unit when the destination is input via the operation part. Specifically, the controller searches a route from a departure place to a destination for each of a plurality of predetermined moving means by a function provided from a route search unit of a navigation code. Then, the controller simultaneously displays the searched plurality of routes on the display unit by a function provided from a display controller of the navigation code.
