Bicycle computer having position-determining functionality
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A bicycle computer comprising:
- a housing;
a display disposed on the housing; and
one or more modules, disposed within the housing, to;
determine the current geographic position and a current map segment type, the map segment being one of a street map-matched segment or a segment that is not street map-matched;
calculate a route from the determined position to a destination;
identify one or more positions along the calculated route where the current map segment type varies;
output a map having an indication of the calculated route and the current geographic position in real time on the display;
output an alert on the display if the current position is in proximity to one of the positions along the calculated route where the current map segment type varies; and
output one or more training metrics of a user of a bicycle in real time on the display.

6. A bicycle computer comprising one or more modules, disposed within a housing, to:
-
determine the current geographic position and a current map segment type, the map segment being one of a street map-matched segment or a segment that is not street map-matched; calculate a route from the determined position to a destination; identify one or more positions along the calculated route where the current map segment type varies; store one or more training metrics of a user of a bicycle as a function of geographic position; output an alert if the current position is in proximity to one of the positions along the calculated route where the current map segment type varies; and output information related to the calculated route on a map in real time on a display. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10)

11. A method comprising:
-
determining a geographic position and a current map segment type of a bicycle computer, the map segment being one of a street map-matched segment or a segment that is not street map-matched; identifying one or more stored routes that correspond to the determined geographic position; identifying one or more positions along the calculated route where the current map segment type varies; calculating a route from the determined geographic position to a destination, the route including a portion of one or more stored routes; and outputting a virtual training partner, having one or more training metrics, by the bicycle computer based on the determined geographic position on a map in real time, wherein an alert is communicated for changes in map segment type. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)
