    摘要: When a moving body (e.g., a car) is entering a roundabout, a navigation machine extracts link data of the roundabout from road map data. The navigation machine detects a route entering the roundabout (i.e., a route the moving body is currently taking), a center of the roundabout, and an exiting route based on the link data to determine an angle of the exiting route with respect to the entering route. A direction mark having the exiting route angle is prepared as a heading direction guidance image. The navigation machine can show an appropriate route (direction) at the roundabout without increasing the amount of stored image data.

    摘要: A car navigation apparatus for determining entry/exit of a vehicle into/from a parking area based on a running state of the vehicle without using a dedicated parking area database. Upon entry into a parking area, the entry is determined by totally checking the speed of the vehicle, the presence or absence of turn-round motion, an error in a forward and backward direction of the vehicle, estimated by map matching, the presence or absence of front and rear intersections, and the widths of intersecting roads. On the other hand, upon exit from a parking area, the exit is determined by totally judging the detected speed of the vehicle, the presence or absence of a straight running distance, the presence or absence of a nearby road extending in parallel with the course of the vehicle, and the width of the parallelly extending road.

    摘要: A terminal device mounted on a movable body, includes: an image capturing unit; a determining unit which determines whether to preferentially display an actually captured guide image using a captured image captured by the image capturing unit or a map guide image using map information, based on a relationship between an image capturing direction of the image capturing unit and a traveling direction of the movable body; and a display controlling unit which displays either the actually captured guide image or the map guide image based on a determination by the determining unit. Therefore, it is possible to appropriately determine whether to preferentially display the actually captured guide image or the map guide image.

    摘要: A navigation system and navigation equipment which reduce the time required for radio transmissions to implement fast navigational guidance. The navigation equipment communicates bi-directionally by radio with a navigation server, thereby providing navigational guidance. The navigation equipment transmits position data delivered by a GPS receiver to the navigation server through a communication device and acquires, from the communication device, map data for display indicative of a map of a surrounding area including a self-location provided by the position data sent back from the navigation server. The navigation equipment then performs map matching between road information contained in the acquired map data for display and the position information, thereby determining a current position on the road, thereby displaying a map in the form of an image on a display unit in accordance with the map data for display and displaying the current position determined by the map matching on the map displayed in the form of an image.

    摘要: Map data stored in a memory includes normal road data and additional road data for predetermined regions along a highway. A current location of a moving body is detected by sensor(s). The normal road data or additional road data is selected on the basis of the detected current location of the moving body. A map matching process is performed with the selected road data. Accordingly, the current location of the moving body is determined in the map matching process with high accuracy.
