NAVIGATION FUNCTION [TYPE B]

id092000101331

Outline

• A vehicle's position is measured by a hybrid method of autonomous navigation (using yaw-rate signals from the gyro sensor and vehicle speed signals from the instrument cluster) and GPS navigation (using signals from GPS satellites). Accurate detection of the vehicle's position is possible based on the adoption of a map-matching function which specifies the vehicle's position as compared with the map data read from the DVD-ROM and the vehicle's position measured from autonomous navigation and GPS navigation.

• Guidance to destination is provided via display of the recommended route on the map screen, as well as voice messaging guidance at intersections and points of divergence.

• RDS-TMC system has been adopted.

• Based on inputted signals and information on the DVD-ROM, the following features are available:

- Destination can be selected based on address, POI (Point of Interest), postcode, memory point, home, preset destination, junction, motorway Ent/Exit, coordinates, map or previous destination.

- Route information is available in map, turn list, turn arrow, enlarged junction diagram, motorway information mode.

- Voice guidance and menus are available in twelve languages.

- A map screen that displays maps in thirteen steps with scales from 50 m to 256 km.

- A map screen that displays routes according to Search condition and route preferences.
