Navigating to a moving destination
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method of navigating, by an intercept device, to an intercept destination to intercept a moving target device, the method comprising:
- receiving, by an intercept device, target positioning data, generated at a moving target device, from the moving target device, the target positioning data including at least (i) a current geographic location of the moving target device and (ii) an intended destination geographic location of the moving target device;
generating, by the intercept device, intercept positioning data; and
locally generating, by the intercept device, a predicted target course using the current geographic location of the moving target device and the intended destination geographic location of the moving target device, and using the predicted target course and the generated intercept position data to generate an intercept course, wherein the intercept course intersects the target course at an intercept destination, the intercept destination different from the intended destination geographic location.

Abstract
A method of navigating to a destination is provided. The method includes but is not limited to determining a target course for a moving target device using target positioning data and generating an intercept course using the target course and intercept positioning data received from an intercept device. The intercept course intersects the target course at a destination.

12. A wireless mobile computing intercept device comprising:
-
a memory; a wireless radio; and a processor configured to; receive, via the wireless radio, target positioning data, generated at a moving target device, from the moving target device, the target positioning data including at least (i) a current geographic location of the moving target device and (ii) an intended destination geographic location of the moving target device; generate intercept positioning data; and locally generate a predicted target course using the current geographic location of the moving target device and the intended destination geographic location of the moving target device, and use the predicted target course and the generated intercept positioning data to generate an intercept course, wherein the intercept course intersects the target course at an intercept destination, the intercept destination different from the intended destination geographic location. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16)
