- the present application generally relates to navigation methods and devices.
- Navigation devices were traditionally utilized mainly in the areas of vehicle use, such as on cars, motorcycles, trucks, boats, etc. Alternatively, if such navigation devices were portable, they were further transferable between vehicles and/or useable outside the vehicle, for foot travel for example. These devices are typically tailored to produce a route of travel based upon an initial position of the navigation device and a selected /input travel destination (end position), noting that the initial position could be entered into the device, but is traditionally calculated via GPS Positioning from a GPS receiver within the navigation device. To aid in navigation of the route, map information is visually output along the route of travel to a user of the navigation device.
- the 2D display may be flat and may hide route details due to, for example, being overlaid with other images such as buildings, etc.
- the 3D display may feel flat to a user and this rendered map image may remove the user from a feeling of reality.
- the inventors have discovered that the user may be confused because it is difficult for the user to match the displayed information to the real situation viewed by the user during driving of a vehicle, for example (or even possibly during travel on foot).
- a method includes determining map information for display on an integrated input and display device of a navigation device, based upon a determined route of travel of the navigation device; determining, prior to display on the integrated input and display device of the navigation device, whether or not the determined map information includes at least one designated pattern; enhancing, upon determining that the determined map information includes at least one designated pattern, the determined at least one designated pattern; and displaying the determined map information, including the enhanced at least one designated pattern, in three dimensions on the integrated input and display device of the navigation device.
- a navigation device includes a processor to determine map information for subsequent display, based upon a determined route of travel of the navigation device, the processor further being useable to determine, prior to display, whether or not the determined map information includes at least one designated pattern and to enhance, upon determining that the determined map information includes at least one designated pattern, the determined at least one designated pattern; and an integrated input and display device to display the determined map information, including the enhanced at least one designated pattern, in three dimensions.

- the processor 210 may draw a darker line underneath the building, for example, as shown in Figure 7, to make it look like the side of the building for example.
- the processor 210 may change the map information prior to display on the integrated input and display device 290.
- the processor 210 compares each pixel with the one above and below it. Then, if an edge or transition is detected for that pixel by the processor 210, then the pixel is changed into a different color. Examples are shown in Figures 1OA (before enhancement of building edge), 1OB (after enhancement of building edge), HA before enhancement of water edge) and 1 IB (after enhancement of water edge).
- the processor 210 determines that a pixel A of Figure 1OA is of a building color and that pixel B of Figure 1OA is of a building color, and determines that pixel C of Figure 1OA is not of a building color (represented in Figure 1OA, for example, by the fact that pixel C is shown in a different gray scale than pixels A and B).
- the processor 210 may be supplied with information regarding what is a building color, for example, and then compares this information to the color information of pixels A-C for example.
- the processor 210 determines that a pixel A of Figure 1OA is of a building color and that pixel B of Figure 1OA is of a building color, and determines that pixel C of Figure 1OA is not of a building color, then the processor 210 recognizes an edge that needs to be enhanced in the map information, and directs that the pixel B and pixel C be changed into a building edge color as shown in Figure 1OC to thereby enhance the edge of the building.
- the processor 210 determines that a pixel A of Figure HA is of not of a water color and pixel A is not of a water edge color, and that pixel B is of a water color and that pixel C is of a water color, then the processor 210 recognizes an edge that needs to be enhanced in the map information, and directs that the pixel B be changed into a water edge color as shown in Figure 1 1 C to thereby enhance the edge of the water.
- Such a determination may be made, by the processor 210, for each pixel in the stored bitmap from left to right and top to bottom.
- An extra determination may be performed for water on pixel A to make sure that it is not of a water color or a water edge color as explained above to ensure that an edge is not smeared over the map information while processing from top to bottom, for example.
- there may be a variation for buildings for example, wherein only pixel B may be changed if the building is farther than a threshold number of meters from the bottom of the screen (less 'tall' buildings toward the horizon). Building edges are typically not applied as the building is farther than a threshold number of meters from the bottom of the screen for example, i.e.
- the distance is meters may be transformed to the projected height on the 3D screen to determine from which row the building edge processing should be applied.
- the determining may include the processor 210 scanning the determined map information to detect at least one of a body of water and a building footprint for example, wherein such information may be flagged or otherwise designated for example.
- the enhancing may then include the processor changing a color shade of at least a portion of the body of water and /or building footprint, for example.
- the aspect of scanning the determined map information to detect at least one of a body of water and building footprint may alternatively be done by the processor 210 scanning every pixel of the bitmap of received map information from memory 230 for a determined route of travel, from left to right and top to bottom, and searching for a vertical pattern like, for example, [B] [B]
- S is a side color (namely a relatively darker version of the building color).
- S is a side color (namely a relatively darker version of the building color).
- This enhanced information may then be stored, at least temporarily, and then displayed on the integrated input and display device 290.
- the processor 210 may scan every pixel of the bitmap of received map information for a determined route of travel to search for a body of water, namely, to search for a vertical pattern like, for example,
- the processor 210 may enhance the information by changing a color shade of at least a portion of the body of water as follows. For example, the processor 210 may change the aforementioned information into
- the determining by the processor 210 may include scanning the determined map information to detect at least one of a body of water and a building footprint, by any of the manners previously discussed, and the enhancing may include the processor 210 increasing the number of pixels representing at least a portion of at least one of the body of water and a building footprint. For example, once detected, instead of changing at least a portion of the building to a relatively darker version of the building color, and /or instead of changing at least a portion of the water edge to a relatively darker version of the water color, pixels can be increased for these portions, such as by adding more pixels to a building portion or a water edge portion to enhance the image for example.
- the building size (including the edge pixels) may be effectively increased by 1 pixel.
- the building may be represented on the displayed map as one pixel larger in height for each horizontal pixel, after the edge pixel has been added.
- a navigation device 200 including a processor 210 to determine map information for subsequent display, based upon a determined route of travel of the navigation device 200, the processor 210 further being useable to determine, prior to display, whether or not the determined map information includes at least one designated pattern and to enhance, upon the processor 210 determining that the determined map information includes at least one designated pattern, the determined at least one designated pattern; and an integrated input and display device 290 to display the determined map information, including the enhanced at least one designated pattern, in three dimensions integrated input and display device 290
