METHODS, DEVICE AND SYSTEMS FOR DETERMINING ROUTE METRICS USING STORED ROUTE INFORMATION
First Claim
1. A method of determining one or more route metrics for a mobile device configured to allow a determination of its location, the method comprising the steps of:
- determining if a reference stimulus is actuated;
obtaining and storing in real-time a route record comprising a plurality of sample sets, said sample sets comprising simultaneous time and location data of said mobile device traversing a route after the actuation of the reference stimulus; and
processing previously stored sample sets to at least partially determine said one or more route metrics.

Abstract
The disclosure is directed to a method, computer program product, mobile device or a system allowing for determining various route metrics based on stored route records associated with routes traversed by the mobile device. The determination of a route metric may utilize processing of a single route record or multiple route records. Exemplary route metrics include route timing metrics such as lap times, or route record metrics. Configurations of computer program products, mobile devices and systems for enabling the determination of various route metrics are also described.

15. A computer program product configured to determine one or more route metrics for a mobile device configured to allow a determination of its location, the computer program product comprising code which, when loaded into a memory and executed on an associated processor, is adapted to perform:
-
determining if a reference stimulus is actuated; obtaining and storing in real-time a route record comprising a plurality of sample sets, said sample sets comprising simultaneous time and location data of said mobile device traversing a route after the actuation of the reference stimulus; and processing previously stored sample sets to at least partially determine said one or more route metrics.

18. A mobile device configured to determine one or more route metrics, said mobile device comprising:
-
a sensing module configured to determine whether a reference stimulus is actuated; a location identification module configured to obtain location data of said mobile device, after receiving a notification from the sensing module that the reference stimulus is actuated; and a processing module operatively coupled to the sensing module and the location identification module, said processing module configured to obtain time data in a simultaneous fashion with the location identification module obtaining the location data, said time and location data at least partially defining a sample set and a plurality of sample sets defining a route record, said processing module further configured to process previously stored sample sets to at least partially determine said one or more route metrics. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22)
