10942566 · 2021-03-09 · ·

Provided are a navigation service assistance system based on a driver line of sight and a vehicle navigation system using the same. The navigation service assistance system recognizes in real time a direction at which a driver looks and a line of sight of the driver, using a sensor. The navigation service assistance system matches external image data and coordinates information based on the line of sight of the driver, using a map controller and extracts detailed information about a text, a place, a road, or the like at a matched position. Here, the map controller assists in enabling automatically extracted text information or a building, a place, a road, or the like to be set or changed as an intermediate point or a destination with only a simple operation of the driver.

System and method for aggregating and displaying tactical, intelligence, and military garrison information
10955253 · 2021-03-23 ·

Disclosed embodiments provide systems and methods for aggregating and displaying tactical information. Multiple navigation routes between a starting location and ending location are computed. Each route is evaluated on a variety of criteria, and a ranked list is presented to a user. Additional information, such as rendering a geographically specific notification, display of a virtual range card, and/or information pertaining to an air support operation may also be rendered. Embodiments further enable issuing of air support requests via a tactile user interface. In this way, pertinent information is rendered in a timely manner to battlefield and commanding personnel to enable effective decision-making.

An information processing apparatus includes a processor configured to associate danger information with a location where biological information indicative of the danger information has been measured from a user.

System and method for providing content to a user based on a predicted route identified from audio or images
10949886 · 2021-03-16 · ·

Embodiments are directed towards providing a system that presents content to a user of a vehicle based on where the vehicle is going. A microphone captures audio signals within the vehicle, which are analyzed for route information. These audible commands may be said by a person in the vehicle, such as a passenger telling the driver where to turn, or they may be received from a mobile computing device, such as a smartphone executing a map application that is providing audible directions. An anticipated route of the vehicle is determined based on the audible route information. Content is selected and presented to the user of the vehicle based on the anticipated route. Images of a display screen of the mobile computing device may also be analyzed to identify the route information.

Autonomous navigation based on road signatures

A system for autonomously navigating a vehicle along a road segment may include at least one processor. The at least one processor may be programmed to receive from at least one sensor information relating to one or more aspects of the road segment. The processor may also be programmed to determine a local feature of the road segment based on the received information. Further the processor may be programmed to compare the local feature to a predetermined signature feature for the road segment. The processor may be programmed to determine a current location of the vehicle along a predetermined road model trajectory associated with the road segment based on the comparison of the received information and the predetermined signature feature. The processor may also be programmed to determine an autonomous steering action for the vehicle based on a direction of the predetermined road model trajectory at the determined location.

Route planning method and apparatus, computer storage medium, terminal

A navigation system may be provided. The navigation system may obtain an image comprising displayable content. The navigation system may receive a trigger instruction to plan a route based on the image. The navigation system may recognize, by an image recognition system, in response to receipt of the trigger instruction, feature content included in the displayable content. The feature content may be indicative of a target geographic location. The system may generate, in response to recognition of the feature content, at least one route from a current geographic location of a terminal to the target geographic location.

ARCHITECTURE RECOGNITION METHOD AND IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM
20210207972 · 2021-07-08 ·

A method for recognizing and identifying a structure. A user aims an electronic device at a structure and an image of the structure is displayed. The user then traces over the displayed structure to create an outline of the structure. This outline data is transmitted to a cloud server and compared with data in a database stored on the cloud server. When a match is found, the structure is recognized and data about the identified structure is sent to the user's device. The data/information is displayed on the device and can be accessed by the user. The user's current location is used to eliminate structures from consideration. After identification GPS data is sent to the user's device along with the structure information. The location of the structure is indicated on an electronic map and navigation details are provided to travel to the structure from the current location.

Navigating road junctions

A system for autonomously navigating a vehicle through a road junction may include at least one processor programmed to receive from an image capture device at least one image representative of an environment of the vehicle. The processor may also be configured to analyze the image to identify two or more landmarks located in the environment of the vehicle and to determine, for each of the two or more landmarks, a directional indicator relative to the vehicle. The processor may be configured to determine a current location of the vehicle relative to the road junction based on an intersection of the directional indicators a heading for the vehicle based on the directional indicators for the two or more landmarks. The processor may be configured to determine a steering angle for the vehicle by comparing the vehicle heading with a predetermined road model trajectory at the current location of the vehicle.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AUTONOMOUS PASSENGER TRANSPORT
20210027410 · 2021-01-28 ·

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.

Autonomous trailer hitching using neural network

One aspect of the disclosure provides a method of maneuvering a vehicle in reverse for attachment to a trailer. The method includes: determining, at a computing device in communication with the neural network, a selected trailer in proximity to the vehicle; detecting at least one user input gesture performed by a user and captured in at least one image from at least one camera on the vehicle; selected a maneuver command for the vehicle based on the detected gesture; and executing the maneuver to move the vehicle from the initial position toward a final position adjacent the trailer.
