In an approach for providing navigational assistance to a target location in a vehicle parking facility, a processor accesses stored vehicle registration numbers each mapped to a location of a vehicle in a parking facility in a database. A processor associates a user with a target vehicle registration number. A processor receives input of a reference vehicle registration number from a mobile user device at a current location of the user using an input component of the mobile user device and references the database of vehicle registration numbers. A processor identifies a current location in the parking facility by look up of the reference registration number; identifies a user's target location in the parking facility by look up of the target registration number associated with the user; and generates dynamic navigational instructions from the current location to the user's target location for sending to the mobile user device.

A provider, such as a transportation management service, can manage transport for a number of riders between various locations. Individual routes can include at least two segments using the same or different modes of transportation. A customer can select a transportation option for the journey that causes reservations to be made for the various segments. It might subsequently be determined that the customer will be unable to make a connection for at least one of the segments. Using information such as an estimated time of arrival of the current segment, the customer can be rebooked on an alternate transportation option that will enable the customer to be transported to the target destination according to the criteria for the journey. Segments can be rebooked for other reasons as well, such as where a better segment option becomes available or is discovered.

In some embodiments, an electronic device facilitates display of and interaction with navigation directions including multiple modes of transportation. In some embodiments, an electronic device configures a route with multiple destinations and multiple modes of transportation. In some embodiments, the electronic device detects a first user input corresponding to a request to add a first destination to a route using a first mode of transportation, and in response, the electronic device adds the first destination using the first mode of transportation to the route. In some embodiments, the electronic device detects a second user input corresponding to a request to add a second destination to the route using a second mode of transportation, different from the first mode of transportation and in response, the electronic device adds the second destination using the second mode of transportation to the route.

In some implementations, a mobile device transmit traffic information to a server for analysis. The traffic information includes movement information including detected stops and durations of detected stops. The traffic information is analyzed to detect traffic patterns that indicate locations of stop signs and/or stop lights. The traffic information is analyzed to determine durations of stops at stop signs and/or stop lights. The durations of stops is associated with a time of day and/or day of the week. In some implementations, navigational routes is determined based stop sign and/or stop light information, including the delays attributable to detected stop signs and/or stop lights.

Provided is a terminal device and the like that can switch a mode of operation as a terminal device in relation to an on-board device to which the terminal device is attached. A terminal device T that is attached to an attachment target device M and that communicates with the attachment target device M comprises a switching means 1 that switches a mode of operation of the terminal device T on the basis of a state of attachment to the attachment target device M and a state of communication with the attachment target device M.

An apparatus, method and computer program product provide a route using a map layer of one or more sound events. For example, the apparatus receives a user preference indicating a sound type, identifies a road segment associated with the sound type from a plurality of road segments, selects a subset from the plurality of road segments as a route based on association of the subset with respect to the road segment, and outputs the route.

A method for replaying route data with annotation for re-display comprises: recording a recorded-route-replay by a first user of a first automobile vehicle and saving the recorded-route-replay to a website; electing to trigger playback of the recorded-route-replay by a second user of a second automobile vehicle and entering a predetermined key word by the second user to trigger playback; contacting a website and downloading from the website GPS tagged pictures for a predetermined next trip travel distance of the second automobile vehicle; and retrieving one of the GPS tagged pictures when a GPS trigger location is reached during the trip of the second automobile vehicle and displaying the one of the GPS tagged pictures on an image screen of a head-up display of second automobile vehicle.

An example method for assisting autonomous vehicle (AV) riders reach their destination after drop-off can include navigating the AV to a drop-off location associated with a user in the AV, receiving sensor data from sensors associated with the AV, determining, based on the sensor data, an orientation of the user in the AV and a location of the AV relative to a final destination of the user, generating a recommendation for how to exit the AV at the drop-off location based on the orientation of the user in the AV and the location of the AV relative to the final destination of the user, and providing the recommendation via a display, a speaker, a light-emitting device, and/or a client device, the recommendation including a visual indication of an exit direction or an AV door to use to exit the AV, audio instructions for exiting the AV, and/or visual exit instructions.

A method of providing an interactive personal mobility system, performed by one or more processors, comprises determining an initial pose by visual-inertial odometry performed on images and inertial measurement unit (IMU) data generated by a wearable augmented reality device. Sensor data transmitted from a personal mobility system is received, and sensor fusion is performed on the data received from the personal mobility system to provide an updated pose. Augmented reality effects are displayed on the wearable augmented reality device based on the updated pose.

A navigation method, navigation apparatus, color indicating apparatus and transportation guiding apparatus are provided. A navigation method, for providing navigation to a vehicle, comprises locating a position of the vehicle (101); determining a route for the vehicle based on the position and a destination of the vehicle (102); determining a transportation guiding apparatus for guiding the vehicle based on the route and position of the vehicle (103); determining a color associated with the vehicle (104); transmitting an indication of the color to a color indicating apparatus on the vehicle (105); and transmitting, an instruction on color display for guiding the vehicle, to the transportation guiding apparatus (106).
