20140089101 | INFERRING USER RISK PROFILE FROM TRAVEL PATTERNS - A method for estimating a risk profile of a user of a personal digital assistant (PDA) includes collecting, using the PDA, data indicative of a travel pattern of the user of the PDA. The risk profile of the user of the PDA is inferred from the travel pattern. The risk profile to is output an external system, so as to enable the external system to provide to the user a commercial offer based on a risk level which is indicated by the risk profile. | 03-27-2014 |
20100204914 | Active widgets for mobile navigation systems - A method for communication includes running a navigation application on a mobile navigation device, so as to present to a user navigation instructions from a navigation server on the display of the mobile navigation device. A widget chosen by the user is activated to run on the mobile navigation device in conjunction with the navigation application. Responsively to activating the widget, an interactive user interface element is overlaid on the navigation instructions on the display, indicating an availability of a location-based service at a location specified by the navigation instructions. Upon receiving an input from the user via the interactive user interface element invoking the service, the service is provided to the user at the specified location via the mobile navigation device. | 08-12-2010 |
20090125229 | Corridor mapping with alternative routes - A navigation system computes an optimal route between an origin and a destination using a map server. The map server identifies likely points of deviation from the optimal route, and prior to transmitting map data to a client device, establishes alternative optimal routes from the deviations to the destination. A search algorithm is employed in which computation effort is reduced through improved heuristics and enhanced recognition of previously expanded nodes and alternative routes through nodes determined in prior iterations of the search. A route corridor map including the optimal route and alternative routes is download from the map server to the client device. | 05-14-2009 |
