Title:
歩行を基盤とする経路ガイド装置及び方法
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP4476943
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
Disclosed is a stride-based route guiding apparatus and method capable of providing a pedestrian with a stride-based route. The method includes detecting a stride of the pedestrian on the basis of a pace inherent to the pedestrian of interest and converting a remaining distance from a current position to a major position or destination into the number of steps so as to provide the pedestrian with the number of steps to the major position or destination when a route is shown, using a navigation system built in a mobile terminal. Since the route is shown on the basis of the number of steps inherent to the pedestrian, the pedestrian can receive the routing more familiar to herself or himself, and easily and intuitively perceive the route from the current position to the major position or destination.
