摘要:
Whether the structure data read from the map data correspond to a non-decomposition structure or a decomposition structure, the drawing attribute of the mesh boundary is modified for the decomposition structure, and textures such as windows are mapped on the side wall of the structure by mapping the texture on the side wall of the structure reconstructed after reconstructing the single-bodied structure before decomposition, or mapping the texture progressively on the side wall of the decomposition structure with the stored start point and end point of the texture to be mapped.

A vehicle position information displaying apparatus and method are disclosed in which position information of a preceding vehicle is displayed in a manner superimposed on the form of a road under running of a user's vehicle generated from map information. The apparatus includes a present position detecting unit for detecting the present position of the user's vehicle, a running road selecting unit for selecting a road under running of the user's vehicle from the present position of the user's vehicle, an other vehicle detecting unit for detecting a distance to another vehicle and the azimuth of the other vehicle, an other vehicle position determining unit for determining the position of the other vehicle, and an other vehicle position displaying unit for developing the running road to a plane view or birds-eye view and displaying position information of the user's vehicle and the other vehicle in a manner superimposed on the developed running road.
摘要:
A map display apparatus for displaying perspective image of a map. The apparatus includes an image display device for displaying the perspective image of the map and a map data storage device for storing map data. Map drawing means is included for preparing map drawing data using the map data and for displaying a perspective image of the map on the display device on the basis of the drawing data. The map drawing means transforms coordinate data of a map into data suitable for display of the perspective image of the map. The data transformation is accomplished by perspectively projecting the coordinate data onto a predetermined projection plane with a view point at a desired position. The projection plane is determined on the basis of two predetermined points in the map data, such as the current position of a vehicle and the destination, so that drawing positions of the two points after the perspectively projecting operation are coincident with predetermined positions.

A navigation device displays predicted traffic information downloaded from a server device and statistical traffic information stored in a storage unit, on the same screen. Both information items may be displayed in such a manner that at least a part of them is overlaid (a superimposed display). The predicted traffic information may be superimposed on the statistical traffic information. When traffic information of the same time band of the same object (link, mesh area) exists in both the information items, one thereof may be selected to be displayed.

An image forming apparatus includes: a plurality of image carriers on each surface of which an electrostatic latent image is formed, each of the image carriers being attachable and detachable; a plurality of development units each adhering a toner to the electrostatic latent image carried on corresponding one of the image carriers, the development units adhering toners that are different from each other, a plurality of transfer units that transfer the toners adhering to the image carriers to a recording medium; an order detection unit that detects an arrangement order of the loaded image carriers; and an image formation condition setting unit that sets an image formation condition for at least one of the developing unit and each of the image carriers based on the arrangement order detected by the order detection unit.

摘要:
A navigation device that calculates an expected travel time or an expected arrival time for each retrieved route, using link costs predetermined for calculation of expected travel times regardless of search conditions. As the link costs for the calculation of expected travel times, are used link travel times obtained by statistically processing traffic information collected in the past, for example.

Distribution map data for distributing a map by communication includes road data representing position information on the roads contained in a plurality of compartments and integrating name data for integrating name information for the same roads contained in the plurality of compartments without duplicating them.
摘要:
A method and an apparatus for detecting a state of a removable medium installed in an electronic apparatus is provided. The electronic apparatus includes a detection device, a non-volatile storage device, a state change detection device, and a first notification device. The detection device detects a state of the removable medium and creates state data. The non-volatile storage device stores the state data. The state change detection device detects a change of the state of the removable medium by comparing state data stored during a first power-on period to state data stored during a second power-on period, where the first power-on period and the second power-on period are separated by a power-off period. The first notification device produces a first notification if the state change detection device detects the change of the state of the removable medium.
摘要:
In a navigation system using a bird's-eye view display mode, map data on a plan view map are subjected to a perspective projection conversion to obtain drawing data on a bird's-eye view map. An input of the position of a view point is accepted, and a projection plane for a bird's-eye view is determined so that the display positions of the two points which have been subjected to perspective-projection conversion are coincident with predetermined positions. Alternatively, an input of a scale is accepted, so that the display positions of the two points after the perspective projection conversion are coincident with predetermined positions and the drawing scale is coincident with the input scale. In a further alternative, an input of the projection angle is accepted, and the projection plane is determined on the basis of the projection angle and the position of the view point.
