Navigation Device Automated Mode Sensing and Adjustment
First Claim
1. A method for automatic mode adjustment for a navigation device, comprising:
- automatically determining, utilizing a navigation device, a travel mode based on at least one non-user input;
setting, utilizing the navigation device, an operational mode corresponding to the travel mode; and
generating, utilizing the navigation device, at least one direction based on at least a detected location of a user, an intended destination, and the travel mode.

Abstract
A navigation device automatically determines a travel mode based on at least one non-user input and configures itself based on the travel mode. The device generates one or more directions or navigation routes based on routing information, a user location, a destination, and the travel mode. The device then displays the one or more directions for the user. The automatic determination may be based on a travel speed, connection to an external power source, connection to an external power source and a travel speed, and/or receipt of one or more signals from a transmitter coupled to a vehicle. The user may be able to override configuration of the device based on the travel mode. The system may be implemented as an integrated device or may be implemented as a server computing device connected to a client computing device.

10. A system for automatic mode adjustment, comprising:
-
at least one storage medium that stores routing information; at least one processing unit, communicably coupled to the at least one storage medium, that generates at least one navigation route based on at least the routing information, a detected location, an intended destination, and an operational mode corresponding to a travel mode; and at least one sensor, communicably coupled to the at least one processing unit, operable to receive at least one signal; wherein the at least one processing unit is operable to automatically determine the travel mode based on the at least one signal. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
