Method and Apparatus for Providing a Navigation Path on a Touch Display of a Portable Device
First Claim
1. A method for providing a navigation path from a source location to a destination location on a touch display of a portable device, the method comprising:
- receiving a continuous sequence of touch inputs at the touch display, wherein the touch display includes at least the source location and the destination location;
determining the source location based on a first touch input of the continuous sequence of touch inputs;
determining the destination location based on a second touch input of the continuous sequence of touch inputs;
mapping the continuous sequence of touch inputs between the source location and the destination location with corresponding path coordinates; and
displaying the navigation path, at the touch display, between the source location and the destination location based on the corresponding path coordinates.

Abstract
The application discloses a method and apparatus for providing a navigation path at a portable device. The method includes receiving a continuous sequence of touch inputs at the touch display. The touch display includes at least a source location and a destination location. The method then includes determining the source location based on a first touch input of the continuous sequence of touch inputs, and determining the destination location based on a second touch input of the continuous sequence of touch inputs. The method further includes mapping the continuous sequence of touch inputs between the source location and the destination location with corresponding path coordinates, and displaying the navigation path, at the touch display, between the source location and the destination location based on the corresponding path coordinates.

15. A portable device for providing a navigation path from a source location to a destination location, the portable device comprising:
-
a device housing; a touch display supported by the housing, the touch display displaying at least the source location and the destination location; an user interface supported by the housing, the user interface receiving a continuous sequence of touch inputs at the touch display; and a processor supported by the housing and coupled to the touch display and the user interface, the processor determining the source location based on a first touch input of the continuous sequence of touch inputs and the destination location based on a second touch input of the continuous sequence of touch inputs, the processor further mapping the continuous sequence of touch inputs between the source location and the destination location with corresponding path coordinates on the map screen, wherein the touch display displays the navigation path between the source location and the destination location based on the corresponding path coordinates. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21)
