Abstract

An Audio-Video-Navigation (AVN) device includes: a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver obtaining a traveling route data of a vehicle; a storage storing information about a navigation map; a navigation controller capturing a navigation map screen of the navigation map; and a application controller displaying a traveling route of the vehicle, based on the traveling route data, on the captured navigation map screen and executing an application to provide the navigation map screen on a display. The navigation controller captures the navigation map screen in response to a request of the application controller.

Claims

1. An Audio-Video-Navigation (AVN) device comprising:

a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver obtaining traveling route data of a vehicle;

a storage storing information about a navigation map;

a navigation controller capturing a navigation map screen of the navigation map; and

an application controller displaying a traveling route of the vehicle, based on the traveling route data, on the captured navigation map screen and executing an application to provide the navigation map screen on a display,

wherein the navigation controller captures the navigation map screen in response to a request of the application controller.

2. The AVN device of claim 1, wherein

the GPS receiver obtains GPS coordinates of the traveling route, and

the navigation controller generates corrected GPS coordinates by matching the GPS coordinates with the information about the navigation map.

3. The AVN device of claim 2, wherein the navigation controller generates corrected the GPS coordinates by further matching the GPS coordinates with information about roads on the navigation map.

4. The AVN device of claim 2, wherein the application controller displays the corrected GPS coordinates on the captured navigation map screen.

5. The AVN device of claim 1, wherein the application controller determines center coordinates of the traveling route and a reduced scale level of the navigation map, based on the traveling route data.

6. The AVN device of claim 5, wherein the navigation controller receives the center coordinates and the reduced scale level from the application controller and captures the navigation map screen based on the received center coordinates and reduced scale level.

7. A vehicle comprising:

a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver obtaining a traveling route data of a vehicle;

a storage storing information about a navigation map;

a navigation controller capturing a navigation map screen of the navigation map; and

an application controller displaying a traveling route of the vehicle, based on the traveling route data, on the captured navigation map screen and executing an application to provide the navigation map screen on a display,

wherein the navigation controller captures the navigation map screen in response to a request of the application controller.

8. The vehicle of claim 7, wherein

the GPS receiver obtains GPS coordinates of the traveling route, and

the navigation controller generates corrected GPS coordinates by matching the GPS coordinates with the information about the navigation map.

9. The vehicle of claim 8, wherein the navigation controller generates the corrected GPS coordinates by further matching the GPS coordinates with roads on the navigation map.

10. The vehicle of claim 8, wherein the application controller displays the corrected GPS coordinates on the captured navigation map screen.

11. The vehicle of claim 7, wherein the application controller determines center coordinates of the traveling route and a reduced scale level of the navigation map, based on the traveling route data.

12. The vehicle of claim 11, wherein the navigation controller receives the center coordinates and the reduced scale level from the application controller and captures the navigation map screen based on the received center coordinates and reduced scale level.

13. A method for controlling a vehicle, the method comprising:

collecting traveling route data of the vehicle;

determining center coordinates of a traveling route of the vehicle and a reduced scale level of a navigation map, based on the traveling route data;

capturing a navigation map screen of the navigation map based on the center coordinates and the reduced scale level; and

displaying the traveling route on the captured navigation map screen.

14. The method of claim 13, wherein the collecting of the traveling route data comprises:

obtaining Global Positioning System (GPS) coordinates of the traveling route.

15. The method of claim 13, further comprising:

generating corrected GPS coordinates by matching the GPS coordinates with a pre-stored navigation map.

16. The method of claim 15, further comprising:

generating the corrected GPS coordinates by further matching the GPS coordinates with roads on the navigation map.

17. The method of claim 16, wherein the displaying of the traveling route comprises:

displaying the corrected GPS coordinates on the captured navigation map screen.
