First Claim
1. A computer implemented method for marking a point of interest in a live image, the method comprising:
- determining a position of a navigation device based on navigation signals received from satellites;
determining an orientation of the device based on data from an orientation sensor of the device;
obtaining a position of a point of interest;
obtaining a first live image from a first camera of the device;
displaying the first live image on a display of the device;
displaying a first marker in the first live image indicating a first location of the point of interest in the first live image, wherein the first location is based on the position of the device, the orientation of the device and the position of the point of interest;
determining whether the point of interest is within a field of view of a second camera of the device based on the position of the point of interest;
obtaining a second live image from the second camera of the device; and
in response to determining that the position of the point of interest is within the field of view, displaying the second live image on the display of the device and a second marker in the second live image indicating a second location of the point of interest in the second live image, wherein the second location is based on the position of the device, the orientation of the device, and the position of the point of interest.

Abstract
A method for marking a point of interest in a live image on a navigation device is provided. A position of a navigation device is determined based on navigation signals received from satellites. An orientation of the device is determined based on data from an orientation sensor. A first live image is obtained from a first camera and displayed. A first marker is displayed in the first live image. The first marker indicates a first location of the point of interest in the first live image. A second live image is obtained and displayed. A second marker is displayed in the second live image. The second marker indicates a second location of the point of interest in the second live image. The first and second locations are based on the position of the device, the orientation of the device and the position of the point of interest.

17. A navigation device for providing a visual indication of a point of interest on a live image, the device comprising:
-
a first camera having a first field of view; a second camera having a second field of view; a navigation antenna configured to receive navigation signals from satellites; memory, wherein the memory comprises instructions for; determining a position of the navigation device based on navigation signals received from satellites; determining an orientation of the device based on data from an orientation sensor of the device; obtaining a position of a point of interest; obtaining a first live image from the first camera of the device; displaying the first live image on a display of the device; displaying a first marker in the first live image indicating a first location of the point of interest in the first live image, wherein the first location is based on the position of the device and the orientation of the device; determining whether the point of interest is within the second field of view of the second camera of the device based on the position of the point of interest; obtaining a second live image from the second camera of the device; and in response to the position of the point of interest being within the second field of view, displaying the second live image on the display of the device and a second marker in the second live image indicating a second location of the point of interest in the second live image, wherein the second location is based on the position of the device, the orientation of the device, and the position of the point of interest; and a processor configured to execute the instructions. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
