Providing road guidance based on road attributes and directions
First Claim
1. A method for providing road guidance on a navigation system, the method comprising:
- determining, by the navigation system, a moving direction of a cursor on a map of the navigation system, the cursor being movable by a user;
obtaining, by the navigation system, a road near the cursor;
determining, by the navigation system, whether one or more attributes of the road coincide with predetermined attribute settings;
determining, by the navigation system, whether a direction of the road coincides with the moving direction of the cursor, in response to determining that the one or more attributes of the road coincide with the predetermined attribute settings; and
determining, by the navigation system, to provide guidance, in response to determining that the direction of the road coincides with the moving direction of the cursor;
drawing, by the navigation system, the cursor into the road, so as to provide the guidance;
determining, by the navigation system, not to provide guidance and rejecting the cursor from entering the road, in response to determining that the direction of the road does not coincide with the moving direction of the cursor; and
wherein the guidance is provided by a sensation force feedback to the user through a remote controller;
wherein the guidance is provided on the map by a visual effect; and
wherein the one or more attributes include at least a type of the road.

Abstract
A method for providing road guidance on a navigation system. The navigation system determines a moving direction of a cursor on a map of the navigation system, wherein the cursor is movable by a user. The navigation system obtains a road near the cursor. The navigation system determines whether one or more attributes of the road coincide with predetermined attribute settings. The navigation system determines whether a direction of the road coincides with the moving direction of the cursor, in response to determining that the one or more attributes of the road coincide with the predetermined attribute settings. The navigation system determines to provide guidance, in response to determining that the direction of the road coincides with the moving direction of the cursor.
