Abstract

A navigating and routing device for a mobile device is disclosed. The navigating and routing device includes a setting unit, for setting a local device information of the navigating and routing device and at least one device information of at least one navigating and routing device of at least one mobile device; a positioning unit, for obtaining a local position information of the navigating and routing device and at least one positioning information of the at least one navigating and routing device via a positioning system according to the local device information and the at least one device information; and a navigating and routing unit, for navigating and routing a route from the mobile device to a target according to a position of the target and the local position information.

Claims

1. A navigating and routing device for a mobile device, the navigating and routing device comprising:

a setting unit, for setting a local device information of the navigating and routing device and at least one device information of at least one navigating and routing device of at least one mobile device;

a positioning unit, for obtaining a local position information of the navigating and routing device and at least one position information of the at least one navigating and routing device via a positioning system according to the local device information and the at least one non-local device information; and

a navigating and routing unit, for navigating and routing a route from the mobile device to a target according to a position of the target and the local position information.

2. The navigating and routing device of claim 1, wherein a communication unit corresponding to the navigating and routing device performs authentication with at least one communication unit corresponding to the at least one navigating and routing device of the at least one mobile device to obtain the at least one device information of the at least one navigating and routing device.

3. The navigating and routing device of claim 1, wherein the navigating and routing device further comprises a display unit for displaying at least one of the at least one mobile device according to the at least one position information.

4. The navigating and routing device of claim 1, wherein the setting unit sets the target as a target mobile device among the at least one mobile device, and the navigating and routing unit navigates and routes the route from the mobile device to the target mobile device according to a target position information of the target mobile device and the local position information.

5. The navigating and routing device of claim 4, wherein the navigating and routing device provides a notification if a distance between the target mobile device and the mobile device is greater than a predetermined distance.

6. The navigating and routing device of claim 1, wherein a following mobile device among the at least one mobile device sets the mobile device as a target mobile device, and the navigating and routing device provides a notification if a distance between the following mobile device and the mobile device is greater than a predetermined distance.

7. The navigating and routing device of claim 1, wherein the navigating and routing unit navigates and routes a shortest path from the mobile device to the target.

8. The navigating and routing device of claim 4, wherein the navigating and routing unit navigates and routes a movement path of the target mobile device.
