SYSTEM, METHOD AND DEVICE FOR PREDICTING NAVIGATIONAL DECISION-MAKING BEHAVIOR
First Claim
1. A system for predicting navigational decision-making behavior comprising:
- a route predicting device having a location unit that determines a current location of the device; and
a behavior predicting application that generates a predicted route a driver is intending to travel based on the current location of the device and a plurality of predetermined factors that predict the route the driver is intending to travel.

Abstract
A system method and device for predicting navigational decision-making behavior is provided. The location of a device is used to generate the current location of the device, and a history of past locations of the device. A behavior predicting application predicts the route a drive is going to travel based on driver preferences, such as left-hand turns, avoidance of bridges, etc., as well as the preferred destinations and/or routes traveled in the past. The preferences of a particular driver can be learned by the system to be implemented in the behavior predicting application, or manually input by the driver. The system can employ GPS or other positioning technology to determine the location of the device. The device can be a standard GPS-enabled in-car device, or other portable device such as a cell phone or PDA.

6. A method for predicting navigational decision-making behavior of a driver comprising the steps of:
-
obtaining driver preference data containing driver preferences; obtaining routes traveled data based upon a current location of a device and at least one past location of the device; and generating a predicted route based on the driver preference data and the routes traveled data. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19)

20. A display screen for displaying a predicted route based on navigational decision-making behavior, the display screen comprising:
-
a route display showing a map of an area surrounding a current location of a driver; an intended route image showing the predicted route that the driver intends to travel, as determined by a prediction application; and a plurality of buttons allowing the user to interface with the prediction application that determines the route that the driver intends to travel. - View Dependent Claims (21)
