    摘要: A method is provided for detecting the position of a moving body in which the position of a moving body such as a vehicle can be detected with a high degree of precision. It is possible to perform at least data communication using radio waves between radio base stations and a vehicle capable of movement. Precise positions are stored in advance in the radio base stations and radio wave clocks that keep a common time are provided in the radio base stations. The radio base stations transmit radio waves containing this time information. The vehicle receives these radio waves and determines the difference between the received time information and a clock provided in the vehicle in order to detect the current position of the vehicle by calculating the distances between the vehicle and each of the radio base stations.

    摘要: A road lane recognizing apparatus can accurately recognize a road lane position from an image shown by an actual road surface image signal obtained by picturing a road surface in front of a vehicle by means of picturing means such as a television camera or the like mounted on the vehicle. Whether the vehicle exists on a straight part of road or not is discriminated in accordance with a vehicle-self position detected by vehicle detecting means. When the vehicle exists on the straight part, an attitude angle showing the direction of the vehicle for the road direction at the vehicle-self position is detected. When the attitude angle is detected, a predetermined ideal road surface image is inclined by only the attitude angle, thereby obtaining the corrected road surface image. The actual road surface image signal from the picturing means is compared with a signal of the corrected road surface image. An image difference is used as an offset amount. The actual road surface image is corrected by only the offset amount. The road lane position is recognized on the basis of the image shown by the corrected actual road surface image signal.

    摘要: Traffic information, including flow information and incident information, obtained through a traffic management system for providing and facilitating the exchange of traffic information between a remote location and a vehicle may be used in route calculation by a navigation device. The navigation device may recalculate a route based on anticipated user error. Alternatively, the navigation device may recalculate a route using received traffic information triggered by the receipt of a traffic information update, or triggered by the passage of an amount of time. The broadcast rate of traffic information updates may vary temporally (providing more frequent updates during peak commute times) or geographically (providing more frequent updates to metropolitan areas with increased traffic information needs). If route calculation is triggered by an elapsed amount of time, the amount of time may vary to be shorter during peak commute times. Additional route calculation techniques allow the incorporation of historical traffic information or the use of the most recent traffic information if incomplete traffic information is available. Still further route calculation techniques may calculate a best route by avoiding zigzagging or evaluating an assigned cost of a potential route.

    摘要: Traffic information, including traffic flow information and traffic incident information, obtained through a traffic management system for providing and facilitating the exchange of traffic information between a remote location and a vehicle may be presented to a user on a user display in the vehicle. The traffic information may be presented to the user in several circumstances, either as cued by the user, or automatically presented by the traffic management system. The user display may also automatically display traffic flow and traffic incident information for the direction that the user is traveling or along a route calculated by the navigation device. Further, a window displaying information about an upcoming traffic incident such as distance to the incident and incident details may automatically appear in the user display. Alternately, the user may select a roadway, freeway, or area for which traffic information is desired.
